Colorectal Cancer

As a primary care physician, I've seen my fair share of uncomfortable topics. But when it comes to colorectal cancer, I've noticed a trend: patients would rather talk about anything else than their butts. And while I understand that it's not the most glamorous topic, the fact is that colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in the US, and it's highly treatable if caught early. So, it's time to destigmatize and talk about it - because the first step in preventing and treating colorectal cancer is to get comfortable with our behinds.
