March is Colon Cancer Awareness Month.  There are 150,000 diagnoses of Colon Cancer each year in the U.S.  50,000 will die.  If caught early, there is a 95% survival rate.  If not caught early, the survival rate drops significantly.  If you are 50 or nearing 50 years of age, call Memphis Gastro to schedule your screening colonoscopy.  It could save your life.  Most insurances cover this important preventative screening.  Call today for an appointment at 333-6944 (MYGI).

The physicians, nurses and staff appreciate the confidence you have placed in the Memphis Gastroenterology Group, P.C. and the Memphis Gastroenterology Endoscopy Center East.
