Endoscopy Services
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in men and women. This is extremely unfortunate since colorectal cancer is very often a preventable disease when appropriate screening is performed. In addition, screening results in the detection of already present cancers at an earlier and more curable stage.
It is recommended that everyone, male and female, undergo a colonoscopy at age 50. Under certain circumstances, patients should have a screening earlier. Individuals with a family history of colon cancer or polyps, for instance, should be screened earlier. Choosing MCMH allows you the ability to undergo screening and treatment close to your loved ones.
Preventive Care for Cancer
