Paying Attention On Colorectal Awareness Month

U.S. Navy/Public Domain

Colorectal cancer kills around 50,000 people in the United States every year.

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. 

Carestream Clinic in Medford performs an alternative prep and other procedures. 

A rep from the clinic joins us with facts and figures.
