We have streamlined this potentially life-saving procedure for patients in the Miramar, Florida area with the Direct Screen Colonoscopy Program at SurgiCare of Miramar. Schedule today by calling us at 954-266-3801.
Our Direct Screen Colonoscopy Program is a no-hassle, lower-cost, and patient-centered approach to colon cancer screening:

The American Cancer Society recommends that people at average risk of colorectal cancer start regular screenings at age 45. A colonoscopy is a simple, diagnostic test which looks for polyps and cancer of the colon. Colonoscopies take about 30 minutes, during which time you will be comfortably sedated. Most patients report a positive experience and return to normal activities and diet the next day.
