Colorectal Cancer and The Couric Effect - Continued: Awareness to Action to Advocacy

Colorectal cancer is one of the few cancers that can often be prevented through screening, yet far too many people aren't getting screened on time. In this episode of Medically Speaking, Dr. Eve Glazier welcomes back the show's very first guest, award-winning journalist Katie Couric, for an ongoing conversation and call to action for Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Joined by Fola May, MD, PhD, UCLA gastroenterologist, and researcher, they discuss what's changed in the conversation around colorectal cancer, why screening matters more than ever, the symptoms people should never ignore, and how to choose among today's screening options. They also explore the barriers that keep people from follow-through — and why turning awareness into action can save lives. Find Dr. Glazier online at:
