## Resource

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, and on this week’s episode of Medical Minds: Conversations with Guthrie Experts, Dr. Koryn Johnston and Steve Osterhaus chat with Dr. Nicholas Serniak, a colorectal and general surgeon. The discussion centers around the process for a colonoscopy, from prep to procedure and post. But, of course, it all begins with screening and early detection. While there are other options, hear why a colonoscopy is the gold standard, and why the age to start getting one has decreased.
