We are now offering more appointment dates for your diagnostic or screening colonoscopy in both our Gainesville and Warrenton Endoscopy Suites.
Colon Cancer Screening
The American Cancer Society recommends average-risk people start screening at age 45.
1 in 5 colorectal cancer cases are now in people under the age of 55.
33% of people diagnosed have a family history of colorectal cancer and are more likely to be diagnosed at an earlier age.
If you have a family history of colon cancer, you may need an earlier screening. Consult your physician for a recommendation.
COLONOSCOPY: THE GOLD STANDARD
The only screening that detects and prevents cancer.
The only test recommended for people with risk factors such as a personal history of polyps or cancer, family history of cancer or inflammatory bowel disease
Your colonoscopy should be performed by a board certified gastroenterologist who is trained and perform thousands of these tests yearly, for best outcomes for you or your family member.
If you are interested in scheduling a colonoscopy,
please talk with a staff member for more information.
