SWGA News

We are currently transferring to an electronic medical record, and patients will be required to complete a medical information form including a complete medication list prior to the office visit, for new patients and follow-up appointments.  This will require additional time to complete the form before seeing the physician or nurse practitioner.  Please allow additional time prior to your appointment. We appreciate your time and understanding during this conversion.

We are also proud to announce that Southwest Endoscopy has been awarded the "ASGE Certificate of Recognition of Quality in Endoscopy."

Colon Cancer Screening Saves Lives

Approximately 150,000 new cases of colorectal cancer are diagnosed every year in the United States and nearly 50,000 people die from the disease. It has been estimated that increased awareness and screening would save at least 30,000 lives each year.

Colorectal cancer is highly preventable and can be detected by testing even before there are symptoms.

The American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy encourages everyone over 50, or those under 50 with a family history or other risk factors, to be screened for colorectal cancer.
