Manage episode 414066408 series 3345907
According to the Canadian Cancer Society, 66 people in our country are diagnosed with colorectal cancer every day and almost 38 per cent of those people will die from the disease. While most cases occur in adults over age 50, it’s becoming more common in the younger population. In this episode of the DocTalks Podcast, host Ian Gillespie chats with Dr. Jamie Gregor, a gastroenterologist in the Gastroenterology Program at St. Joseph’s Hospital and past President of the Ontario Association of Gastroenterology and past Chair of the Specialty Committee in Gastroenterology for the Royal College of Physicians & Surgeons of Canada about the symptoms, screening and treatments available for colorectal cancer.
