🎧 In Episode 19 of my podcast, "The Interventional Endoscopist," aptly titled "The One Where I Talk About My Colonoscopy," I recount the details of my procedure, my feelings before and after, and why it's so crucial to get screened.
My hope is that my personal experience can help dispel any fears and misconceptions about this life-saving procedure. Remember, prevention and early detection are key in the fight against colon cancer, and a colonoscopy is one of the most effective ways to ensure this.
