There are often no symptoms of colorectal cancer, but when caught early through screening, precancerous polyps can be found and removed before they develop into cancer, saving lives.

Approximately 1 in 3 people nationwide who should be getting screenings for colorectal cancer have never been screened, but screenings are widely available and can be noninvasive!

If you are over 45 and have not been screened for colorectal cancer, make an appointment with a Community Health Center today and stop cancer before it starts. You can find a health center near you at lpca.net/find-a-health-center.
