Endoscopy Clinic, February

An important action you can take to remain in good health is to receive your cancer screenings.  BBAHC has an upcoming endoscopy clinic in February to screen for colon cancer. Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer among Indigenous people, and the second leading cause of cancer death.  If you are an Alaska Native age 40 or older or a non-Native age 45 or older, it’s time to get screened.  To learn more about the colonoscopy procedure, watch this short video:  https://vimeo.com/itstyler/review/910626948/ae350d889e.  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!
