Brattleboro Memorial Hospital is honored to recognize March as National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.
We encourage most people to schedule a colonoscopy every ten years starting at the age of 45.
If your your physician should find any pre-cancerous polyps during your colonoscopy, he/she can remove them and prevent cancer from occurring.
And when caught early, colorectal cancer has a 90 percent survival rate.
