Colonoscopies Save Lives

A colonoscopy gives you the power to prevent cancer. 

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers in the U.S., but it’s also one of the few cancers that can often be prevented. Regular colonoscopies help catch colorectal cancer early – when it is most treatable – or even stop it before it starts. 

Most colorectal cancers begin as abnormal growths called polyps in the colon or rectum. During colonoscopy, these polyps can be easily detected and removed, preventing them from developing into cancer.  

At Cooper, our gastrointestinal experts provide lifesaving colonoscopies to South Jersey residents, combining cutting-edge technology with compassionate care from a team of renowned physicians. 

Why Choose Cooper for Your Colonoscopy? 

A colonoscopy is one of the most effective ways to detect colorectal cancer early, when treatment is most successful. 

  • If you are at average risk, it’s recommended that you begin screening at age 45. 
  • If you have a family history of colorectal cancer, you may need to start earlier. Talk to your doctor to determine the right timing for you. 

Most colonoscopies are covered by insurance. If you are uninsured or underinsured, you may qualify for free colon cancer screenings through Cooper’s cancer outreach and screening program. 

Don't wait. Call today to schedule your colonoscopy by calling 856.536.1125. 

Other Forms of Colon Cancer Screening 

While colonoscopy is considered the gold standard, there are alternative screening option available, including: 

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