”Colorectal Cancer Prevention: What Dr. Clarke Wants You to Know”

In this new episode, Spill with Me Jenny D talks with Dr. Bridger Clarke, chief of Gastroenterology at St. Clair Health, about Colorectal Cancer Prevention, screening guidelines, and what to expect during a colonoscopy. Also, we discussed who should be screened (starting at age 45 for average risk), common risk factors, the importance of early detection and prevention through polyp removal, prep and recovery, and a tour of the endoscopy suite to demystify the procedure. I want to give a heartfelt thank you St. Clair Health for sponsoring this episode and for helping me bring meaningful health conversations to our community.  To learn more about colorectal cancer screening or to schedule a colonoscopy at St. Clair Health call 412-942-6700 or visit stclair.org All episodes are available on all the major Audio Platforms as well as Jenny D's YouTube page.
