Screening for colon cancer

We know that receiving a colonoscopy is not what anyone wants to do, but it is one of the most valuable preventive care procedures we can offer. Colorectal cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer if it is caught early or in the pre-cancer stage via colonoscopy.

It’s recommended that you schedule your first colonoscopy at age 45, and continue to be screened every ten years after, unless you have other risk factors, or if a potential malignancy is found.

Visit our colon screening page to learn more about why colon screening is so important, and how you can schedule your appointment today.
