Getting Started With Your Colonoscopy

You Did It! 🎉

Taking care of your health starts with one step, and you are already here! That means you are on the right track to protect yourself from colon cancer.

What’s Next?

Getting started with colon cancer preventive care is easier than you think. It all begins with a conversation with one of our experienced, compassionate, and knowledgeable physicians. Your initial appointment is just that — a conversation. During this visit, your doctor will discuss your personal and family medical history, assess your risk factors, and answer any questions you may have.

From there, we will take the next steps toward scheduling your colonoscopy. In most cases, colonoscopies can be scheduled within 2 weeks of your consultation, ensuring you do not have to wait long to take this important step for your health.

👉 Who Should Start This Conversation?

✅ Adults 45 and older

✅ Adults with a family history of colon cancer

✅ Individuals with a history of polyps, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or other digestive conditions

✅ Anyone experiencing persistent digestive symptoms like unexplained changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, or rectal bleeding
