Cancer Screening & Prevention

Even today, GI cancers are still a major cause for concern. Thankfully, potentially life-saving screenings can be performed for colon, stomach, pancreas, and liver cancers. Dr. Akerman's Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR) for 2017-18 is 48.48% as determined by GIQuIC from the American College of Gastroenterology.

Our practice offers appropriate testing based on your personal / family history for detection and prevention. If a GI cancer diagnosis happens, we will be there with you to coordinate with a team of physicians focused on your specific treatment and well-being.
