Healthy Choices Can Lower Your Colon Cancer Risk
A new study finds you can lower cancer risk by 40 percent by changing your lifestyle, and colon cancer is one type that is most responsive to habit changes.

Patient Registration
The patient registration portal is designed to help streamline your surgical process. By entering your medical history prior to the day of your medical visit, you save time, reduce medical errors, and increase efficiency. Your medical information is secured and will not be shared.
Insurance and Billing
Essex Endoscopy Center accepts most major insurance. We cannot tell you what your policy will cover. Since your insurance policy and coverage are between you and your carrier, we urge you to contact them prior to your procedure. You will be responsible for any co-pays and deductibles.
