Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers when caught early. Our Cypress GI team offers colonoscopies and at-home stool tests to find problems before they become serious, often in a single visit.
The American Cancer Society now recommends screening starting at age 45 for average-risk adults, not 50. Talk to our team if any of these apply to you:
Our team reviews your history, age, and risk factors and recommends the right screening option for you. No pressure, no guesswork.
Talk to Our TeamWe keep the process clear and low-stress, whether you choose a colonoscopy or a stool-based test at home.
We start by looking at your health history and family background to pick the screening method that fits your situation. Colonoscopy, COLOGUARD, or FIT test, we walk you through the difference.
Colonoscopies are performed in our Cypress office with sedation so you won't feel a thing. Stool tests go home with you and ship back by mail. Either way, it's over fast.
We explain your results clearly and tell you exactly what, if anything, needs follow-up. No confusing medical jargon, just a clear answer.
We've built our practice around making screening easier to say yes to.
Finding a polyp during a routine colonoscopy takes about 30 minutes and prevents cancer from forming. Waiting until symptoms show up often means a harder conversation about treatment.
Not everyone wants a colonoscopy. We offer stool-based home tests for patients who qualify. Our GI team helps you pick based on your risk level, not just what's easiest to schedule.
Your colonoscopy is performed by a board-certified gastroenterologist who focuses on this every day. That matters when someone is looking for polyps with a 5 mm margin.
We don't put patients on a 6-month waiting list. Appointments at our Cypress office often open within the same week. Call us and find out what's available.
Our front desk team checks your coverage before your appointment, so there are no surprises on the bill. Most major insurance plans cover preventive colonoscopies at 100%.
