About this listen

In today’s episode, we join Dr. Martin Uwah, a skilled colorectal surgeon, and Dr. Edwin McDonald and Dr. Ross McMillan, expert gastroenterologists, as they discuss gastrointestinal health, including colorectal surgery and colorectal cancer. Some of the questions they answer include: what are some risk factors for colon cancer, and what can you do to decrease your risk? What does a colonoscopy really involve, and who should get one? Why are there disparities in colon cancer rates and deaths, by race/ethnicity and between neighborhoods in Chicago? And what is happening here at UChicago to address these disparities?
