Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in Canada, and will affect 1 in 17 Canadians. The good news is colon cancer is preventable. Colonoscopy is the best test for detection and prevention of colon cancer. Starting at age 50, men and women who are of average risk should begin colon screening. An individual's risk increases with age, and those with a family history of colon polyps or colon cancer are also at increased risk. The goal of a screening colonoscopy is to find polyps (grape-like growths on the lining of the colon) at an early stage and to remove them. Polyps are common; at age 50, approximately 30% of Canadians will have polyps. The test itself takes only 15-20 minutes, and with sedation is generally comfortable. Isn't it time you booked your colonoscopy? See your family doctor today! GEM HEALTH CARE SERVICES HALTON 331 Sheddon Avenue, Suite 200, Oakville, ON L6J 1X8 We are here to help 24/7.
