March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month

Colorectal Cancer Awareness begins today, so everyone over 50 can help with this battle by calling and making your appointment for your screen today.

Of cancers affecting both men and women, colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer in the United States. But it is largely preventable, through regular screening beginning at age 50.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about one in three adults (23 million people) have not been screened as recommended.
