That’s right.  There aren’t any.

GET SCREENED

Most colon cancers start as benign polyps

(small noncancerous growths) that can be

removed during an outpatient procedure.

If you are age 50 or over, follow these

steps for early detection: Sigmoidoscopy

every 5 years.

If you have a family history of colon cancer

or personal history of colon polyps,

see your health care provider for

recommended screening.

This is one cancer we can stop before it ever gets started!

Make an appointment today

with the Sand Point Medical Clinic

for a colorectal cancer screening.
