Can I take a screening test for colon cancer without the doctor telling me to? And How much does it cost?
Jul 3, 2015

Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
Screening for colon cancer is performed only when the person meets a number of criteria, one of which is age above 50 years. You're way too young for such screening - may I know what is prompting you to think of taking such test?
