Endoscopy Center and Colonoscopy
Closer Care, Better By Far
A COLONOSCOPY? YOU HAVE OPTIONS.
The evidence is staggering. Colon cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the U.S. & 3rd most common cancer.
The good news is a colonoscopy at Scotland Endoscopy Center can help cut your chances of dying from colon cancer in half. Studies show that removing polyps (small growths) during a colonoscopy prevent colon cancer from developing in the first place. But early detection is key. That's why it's recommended that everyone get a screening starting at age 50. Those with a family history of colon cancer should be screened earlier and African Americans and Native Americans should be screened starting at age 45.
Don't Wait!
If you're 50 or older, don't wait-the consequences are much scarier. Steven McDaniel of Bennettsville found out why it is never too early to receive a colonoscopy.
