Why are Hispanics Less Likely to Screen for Colon Cancer?
Colon cancer screening rates are significantly lower among Hispanic Americans over 50, and Hispanic Americans are more likely to be diagnosed with colon cancer in advanced stages.

My first endoscopy and I couldn't be any more happier to have had it here! Everything was excellent...from reception and filling out the forms, to my pre-procedure preparation (and my great nurse), to the actual procedure (and my awesome anesthetist, doctor and their assistant), and to the post procedure care (again from another wonderful nurse). I wish all who work here the very best - for all the care they have shown to me!

I’ve been to Folsom Sierra Endoscopy Center twice now. Both times were great experiences. The nursing staff was the best. They were friendly and kind and very caring. They eased my nerves and were very attentive.
