LIFE BEFORE CANCER

​​​​​​​​​

Before cancer, there are many things you can do to catch it early or even prevent it.

No one knows who is going to be diagnosed with cancer or when it will happen, but we do know everyone is different. Some people develop cancer at a young age, while others live a long life without cancer. This is why we use screening and prevention methods to help find cancer early no matter when it happens.


Primary care

Staying healthy and managing your risk for cancer is about establishing a relationship with your primary care provider. Your primary provider can help you get the right screenings where, when and how you want it.
