Why are Hispanics Less Likely to Screen for Colon Cancer?
Colon cancer screening rates are significantly lower among Hispanic Americans over 50, and Hispanic Americans are more likely to be diagnosed with colon cancer in advanced stages.

Dr. Ellison performed my colonoscopy earlier this year and was very patient and professional and the procedure was quick, easy and painless. Later I had some concerns about other abdominal issues and had a consultation with Nurse Practitioner Chelsie. I felt much less anxiety after talking with her. She listened to my issues and went over ideas for dealing with my condition. I am very happy with my experiences with this clinic, they got me an appointment quickly and no waiting both times. 👍

I don't think I have ever been treated better by a medical staff. Very sweet and informative and really put my mind at ease. If it wasn't for the "day before" of drinking the stuff, the colonoscopy would be a breeze!
