Not Your Parents Colonoscopy

Colon cancer is up in the U.S. and one reason why is the dreaded colonoscopy prep. But nowadays it’s not your parents’ colonoscopy being offered. There are many avenues to cleaning out your colon!

As Dr. Rosario Ligresti, chief, Division of Gastroenterology at Hackensack University Medical Center explains, colonoscopy prep is easier to take (there are even pill options) and still very effective.

With this being Colon Cancer Awareness Month, I’d like to offer Dr. Ligresti (someone who has a good sense of humor about colonoscopies) as an interview. Here is a video of him demonstrating the different cocktail options for colonoscopies. I thought this might be a good visual for him to do on your show if you are interested.
