Screening Colonoscopy
According to the American Cancer Society, colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Starting at age 50, men and women who don’t have a history of polyps or colon cancer should have a colonoscopy every 10 years. To encourage patients to get this vital test, Gatto’s Restaurants is giving patients a $20 Gift Certificate when they have a screening colonoscopy at Silver Cross Hospital between March 1 to Sept. 30, 2015. Call 1-888-660-HEAL or visit www.silvercross.org for a referral to a physician on the Silver Cross Medical Staff who performs colonoscopies.
