Be His Hero

A colonoscopy gives you the power to prevent cancer.

While colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers in the U.S., it is also known for being one of the few cancers that can be prevented. By scheduling regular colonoscopies, you can catch colorectal cancer in its earliest, most treatable stages.

Colorectal cancer almost always develops from abnormal growths in the colon or rectum called polyps. These can easily be detected during a colonoscopy. All polyps found during routine screenings are promptly removed before they can develop into cancer. The Cooper gastrointestinal experts provide lifesaving colonoscopies to South Jersey residents. Our connection to the local community stretches back more than 130 years. During that time, we’ve continually provided effective treatments and tests thanks to cutting-edge technology and a team of renowned physicians.

Why Choose Cooper for Your Colonoscopy?

A colonoscopy is one of the most effective ways to identify colorectal cancer early. The sooner these cells are identified, the more effective your treatment will be. It’s recommended that average-risk men and women begin testing at age 45.

  • If you have a family history of colorectal cancer, however, you’re considered a high-risk patient and it’s recommended that your screenings begin earlier. Consult with your physician to determine the timing that is right for you.

Most colonoscopies are covered by insurance. For men and women without insurance or who are underinsured, free colon cancer screenings are available through our cancer outreach and screening program.

Other Forms of Colon Cancer Screening

While colonoscopies are considered the gold standard for the early identification of colon cancer, there are alternative procedures that can be just as effective. If you want to explore alternative options, some of the most common include:

  • Stool tests for blood  (FIT)
  • Barium enemas (X-ray)
  • Stool DNA tests (Cologuard)®
  • CT colonoscopies
