Colon cancer is often called a “silent” disease because symptoms may not appear until it has progressed. The good news? It’s one of the few cancers that can actually be prevented with routine screening.

During a colonoscopy, precancerous polyps can be found and removed before they ever turn into cancer. It’s a safe, routine procedure and most patients say it’s easier than they expected.

If you’re 45 or older, or have a family history of colorectal cancer, now is the time to start the conversation. Talk to your provider about scheduling a colonoscopy with Buena Vista General Surgery right here in Storm Lake.

Taking this simple step could save your life.
