Patients value access to advanced screening. Adults ages 50-75 reported the following. 92% would want to know if they have cancer as early as possible so they could take action.

At Occupational Health Center, Dr. Toney Hudson is proud to offer the Galleri Multi-Cancer Early Detection screening. It takes just 2 weeks from the blood draw to get your results.

Some of the deadliest cancers for adults have no recommended screening. Aggressive cancers shed more DNA and are more likely to have a Cancer Signal Detected result.

Have questions about how the test works, the process, or price? Reach out to us today via private message (PM), our direct line at 931-644-6652 or my email address at: mdetwiler@occhealth.md

As we continue to talk about cancer screenings, know there are just 5 on a schedule.

There are many dangerous cancers with no screenings.

This is why we are pleased to offer Galleri from Grail. It is a screening option for all of these cancers without screenings. It is a simple blood draw at our office.

False positives are RARE as Galleri has 99.5% specificity.

Did you know?
*Greater than 85% of new cancers occur in those 50 & over?
*You have a 6% average increase of risk of cancer with every year of age.
*The risk for cancer for people aged 65+is 2.5 times higher, on average, than those in the 50-64 age group.

The deadliest cancers for adults ages 65+ that have no recommended screening are: Pancreas, Liver, Leukemia, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, Bladder, and O***y.

Galleri screening is recommended for use in adults with an elevated cancer risk, those 50 & older. People without symptoms can take the test.

We encourage you to reach out to us to discuss the Galleri test and have all your questions answered. Please contact Michael Detwiler by calling 931.644.6652 or by emailing mdetwiler@occhealth.md

**WE MUST CATCH CANCER EARLY**

Catching cancer before you have symptoms.

The Galleri multi-cancer early detection test is a prescription-only blood test that screens for a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer, many of which do not have recommended screening tests. It is intended to be used in addition to, not as a replacement for, existing standard cancer screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies.

The Galleri test screens for many aggressive and deadly cancers that currently lack recommended standard-of-care screening options.

The primary reason these other options do not exist is due to the nature and location of these cancers, and the lack of reliable, non-invasive screening methods proven to reduce mortality in the general population.

**Deadliest Cancers Screened by Galleri Without Standard Options**

The Galleri test is particularly notable because it can detect signals for cancers such as:

Pancreatic cancer:
One of the most lethal cancers, often with a very low five-year survival rate (around 8.3%), as it is usually detected at late stages (III or IV).

Ovarian cancer:
This cancer is also highly lethal because symptoms are non-specific and often appear only after the cancer has spread throughout the abdomen.

Liver/Bile duct cancer:
These cancers also lack standard screening and have low survival rates, though Galleri has a high sensitivity for them.

Others include:
Esophageal cancer, Stomach cancer along with head and neck cancers.

Understanding the profound impact cancer has had on our community, we want to directly inform you about a new, cutting-edge screening option designed to detect more than 50 types of cancer earlier.

We understand that cancer profoundly impacts almost every family, and you may have had a personal experience with the disease yourself.

Over the past six months, Dr. Hudson and his team have been dedicated to researching and implementing more effective ways to screen patients for cancer. We are pleased to announce we are now offering a new, comprehensive screening option.

We are implementing the Galleri multi-cancer early detection test, which screens for more than 50 different types of cancer. This is particularly significant because Galleri can detect many aggressive cancers that currently lack recommended standard-of-care screening options. The primary challenge for these other cancers has been their nature, location, and the absence of proven, non-invasive screening methods known to reduce mortality in the general population.

The Galleri test is specifically recommended for adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older.

We encourage you to reach out to us to discuss the Galleri test and have all your questions answered. Please contact Michael Detwiler at Occupational Health by calling his direct line at 931.644.6652 or by emailing mdetwiler@occhealth.md
