Our guest, Raye Arce with Exact Sciences joins us today as we discuss Colon Cancer or Colorectal Cancer. We will explore the various screening options available, including the non-invasive, at-home testing and the traditional colonoscopy. Ray will unpack the key factors influencing these choices, such as frequency, patient preferences, and the importance of early detection, which significantly improves survival rates. 

Additionally, Ray will provide insights into overcoming the barriers to screening and emphasize the importance of shared decision-making with healthcare providers. Tune in as we discuss how regular screening can make a life-saving difference and what you need to know to take charge of your health.
