Colonoscopy Doctor in Plano, TX

Did you know that we have the solution for colon cancer in Plano, TX? The key is to get screened for colon cancer by following the suggested guidelines from the American Gastroenterological Association , which recommends getting your initial screening at age 45. I created the video on the left to help provide some further insight into how the colonoscopy is performed and hopefully distill some of the apprehension towards this preventative procedure. Colonoscopy is considered to be the gold standard for screening for colon cancer since your doctor can find and remove pre-cancerous polyps during this screening procedure.

It's important to note that Colonoscopy is a painless procedure and easy to prepare for.

Dr. Arshad Malik offers open access colonoscopy to qualifying patients, which provides the opportunity to save the expense and time of an office visit. Hopefully this will encourage more people in Plano, TX to get screened for colon cancer.
