Early detection is key—If you are over 45, have a history of polyps, or have any concerning signs/symptoms, schedule an appointment with Dr. Myers today!

Memorial Hospital and Manor is proud to be the first hospital in the region to offer the new Olympus EVIS X1™ advanced endoscopy system, bringing state-of-the-art GI detection and treatment to our community. This innovative technology enhances visualization during screenings like colonoscopies, helping our physicians detect polyps and lesions earlier—right here in Bainbridge. “The lifetime risk of developing colorectal cancer is about 1 in 30 and symptoms oftentimes do not occur until late in presentation. Screening is key and a colonoscopy remains the gold standard.” said Dr. Myers. Please call Memorial Surgical Associates at 229-243-1700 and they can assist you with any questions.

March is ! Contact our surgeons at Memorial Surgical Associates today and get your screening on the books!

March is ! experts at ACG urge you to talk to your doctor about lifesaving . ACG's Message: 45 is The New 50! Age 45 is now the age to start screening for colorectal cancer among all average risk adults according to 2021 guidelines from the American College of Gastroenterology. This is an important change from earlier guidelines that used to recommend starting at age 50 for most people and age 45 for African Americans only. Your gastroenterologist can diagnose colorectal cancers at an earlier stage, find colon polyps early so they can be safely removed, and help to prevent colorectal cancers.

Many Americans say they want to “make sure the shot is safe” before getting vaccinated. That data is already in, and it is overwhelming.

TUESDAY TESTIMONIAL: Today we are sharing a testimonial from Memorial Surgical Associates patient and breast cancer survivor, Patsy Henry.

“I am a big believer in mammograms, and am fortunate that my breast cancer was detected early. Thankfully my cancer was tiny. I met with Dr. Myers to discuss my options. From the very beginning, I knew I was in good hands. I cannot say enough about his care for me. He took me through the initial shock of finding out I had breast cancer to coming out the other side through the surgery and treatments. I am thankful for his expertise during that process and I would recommend him highly.”
