March is Colon Cancer Screening month

More die in Illinois than Michigan due to lower screening rate.

Every year 50,000 die because they delayed their Colon screening.
For this reason,we have designated March to remind all over 40 yr.to please get Colon Cancer Screening.
This is a preventable cancer--by removing Polyps--which 25% over 50 yr.old have--we prevent this cancer.
Please get it done and if you have no insurance--talk to us.

We’ve removed the ability to reply as we work to make improvements. Learn more here
