Aging In The Willamette Valley

In this show, Dr. Larry Gates M.D. from Salem Gastroenterology Consultants joins us to talk about the importance of screenings for colon cancer, liver disease, inflammatory bowel disease and other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Colorectal cancer is one of the most common, and most deadly, of cancers. For this reason, colon cancer screening is recommended for everyone over the age of 50. The good news is colon cancer is 90% preventable when detected early. Tune in for this important show & make sure you get screened!
