Get Screened During Hunting Season

This hunting season, put colon cancer in the crosshairs.  At BBAHC, we encourage you to come in for your cancer screening during August and September for a chance to win a set of binoculars.  Cancer screening is key to living a long and healthy life so you can enjoy many more hunting seasons to come.  If you are an Alaska Native age 40 or older or a non-Native age 45 or older, it’s time to get screened.  Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer among Indigenous people, and the second leading cause of cancer death.  More information can be found on our website:  https://bbahc.org/endoscopy-clinic.  Call us today at (907) 842-9222 to schedule your appointment or talk to your doctor about screening options.  It could save your life!
