🔵 As many of you know, March is Colon Cancer Awareness Month. To contribute to this important conversation, I decided to share my personal experience with a colonoscopy that took place two years ago.
🎧 In Episode 19 of my podcast, "The Interventional Endoscopist," aptly titled "The One Where I Talk About My Colonoscopy," I recount the details of my procedure, my feelings before and after, and why it's so crucial to get screened.
My hope is that my personal experience can help dispel any fears and misconceptions about this life-saving procedure. Remember, prevention and early detection are key in the fight against colon cancer, and a colonoscopy is one of the most effective ways to ensure this.
So, whether you're a physician, a patient, or someone interested in health and wellness, I invite you to listen to my candid conversation about this important topic.
My decision to share this personal story was greatly inspired by Dr. Neil Parekh and his recent episode on "The Gut Doctor Podcast." where he discusses how he performed his colleague's procedure. Their discussion inspired and encouraged me to do the same, in hopes of dispelling fears and misconceptions around this life-saving procedure.Â
