Did you know a colonoscopy can PREVENT cancer?

Not just detect it. Prevent it.

During a colonoscopy, we:
✔️ Look for problems
✔️ Remove polyps before they become cancerous
✔️ Prevent cancer before it starts

Colonoscopy is the only screening that can both detect and remove polyps. That’s why it’s considered the gold standard for Colon Cancer screening.

Most people should start at age 45, earlier for those considered high-risk (a family history, IBD, or specific GI symptoms).

It’s quick. It’s safe. And it could save your life.

Let’s not put this one off. Get screened! 💙

If you’re 45+ or have a family history, let’s get you scheduled.

March is Colon Cancer Awareness Month 💙

This March, please help spread awareness that Colon Cancer is a preventable cancer.

Here’s why screening matters:
▪️ 150,000 Americans are diagnosed each year
▪️ Over 50,000 deaths annually
▪️ BUT more than 1.5 million survivors in the U.S.

Why? Because early detection saves lives.
Colorectal cancer is one of the few cancers we can actually prevent with screening.

Bringing awareness to colon cancer prevention is a cornerstone of my GI practice. This is one of the few cancers that screening can prevent. Subsequently, I always want to inform others about local events supporting colon cancer awareness to keep getting screened top of mind.
