Detect and protect against colorectal cancer

Ensure your health and be proactive against colorectal cancer with a screening colonoscopy. A vital tool for early detection and prevention, a screening colonoscopy can help identify cancerous and pre-cancerous conditions even when a patient has no symptoms.

At New York Gastroenterology Associates (NYGA), our expert specialists use these screenings for two critical purposes:

1. Diagnose colon cancer early, when it's easiest to treat
2. Remove growths, known as polyps, before they turn into cancer

Who should get screened?

According to current guidelines, individuals over the age of 45 or those at risk due to family medical history, personal medical conditions, and lifestyle factors should undergo a screening colonoscopy.
