This confirms what I just did. I'm new to the area and trying to find a gastrotentrologist. First interview he said I may not need another colonoscopy for ten years even tho my mom died of colon cancer. I'm 68. Mom died at 74. That means wait until I'm 78? Decided I didn't want to argue with him, and I would find another dr. BUT there aren't too many other choices in this area. Checked another dr credentials and there was no education information. Supposedly patient has to stay with referred dr. Waiting on answer from possible new dr. Thankfully Mayo Clinic is only two hours away.
