What is colorectal cancer and why should I be screened?
Health, safety and wellbeing are at the forefront of everyone’s mind nowadays due to Covid-19.
But as we juggle changes to our work and social lives, it’s essential that our long-term health doesn’t take a back seat to our commitment to daily safety and hygiene.
As we get older, looking after our health is more important than ever. With regular checkups at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, patients and doctors can stay one step ahead of potential problems including ‘unseen’ diseases like colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer among men, and the third most common cancer in women. In the UAE, more than 41% of colorectal cancer patients are younger than 50, with more than 22% below 40.
