Why are Hispanics Less Likely to Screen for Colon Cancer?
Colon cancer screening rates are significantly lower among Hispanic Americans over 50, and Hispanic Americans are more likely to be diagnosed with colon cancer in advanced stages.

East Valley Endoscopy is a wonderful facility. The staff are all professional and at the same time extremely friendly. I was greeted with a smile on the morning of my procedure and with smiles all through the procedure. When I awoke from my 20 minute nap, I was greeted to Apple juice and more smiles. I highly recommend this facility to anyone with Endoscopy needs.

Every appointment has been on time and waiting less than 10 min from time of arrival to seeing the Doctor. Everyone makes me feel welcomed and important. I feel they are taking my health seriously. Everyone I have interacted with have been friendly and professional. They are very good at the follow ups.
