Colon cancer is one of the most preventable cancers. Early detection saves lives.

Regular colon cancer screening can help detect precancerous polyps before they become cancerous, often before symptoms even begin. That’s why screening is one of the most important steps you can take for your digestive health.

You may be at higher risk if you have:
• A family history of colon cancer or polyps
• Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
• A personal history of polyps
• Obesity, smoking, or heavy alcohol use
• Age 45 or older

Common symptoms to never ignore include:
• Changes in bowel habits
• Blood in the stool
• Unexplained weight loss
• Persistent abdominal discomfort
• Fatigue or weakness

At Digestive Health Associates & Center of Reno, our experienced GI specialists are here to provide preventive screenings, education, and compassionate care to help protect your long-term health.

Don’t wait for symptoms to schedule your screening. Prevention starts with awareness.

Liver disease can often be silent in its early stages — but early awareness and evaluation can make a meaningful difference.

Your liver plays a vital role in digestion, metabolism, filtering toxins, and overall health. When liver disease develops, symptoms may not appear right away, which is why it’s important to pay attention to risk factors and warning signs.

Possible signs of liver disease may include:
• Fatigue or weakness
• Yellowing of the skin or eyes
• Abdominal swelling or discomfort
• Nausea or loss of appetite
• Dark urine or pale stools
• Easy bruising or bleeding

At Digestive Health Associates & Center of Reno, our trusted GI team is here to provide education, evaluation, treatment, and ongoing support for patients with liver conditions.

If you have concerns about your liver health or risk factors such as fatty liver disease, hepatitis, alcohol use, diabetes, or obesity, don’t wait to seek care.

Your liver health matters — and we’re here to help every step of the way.

From diagnosis to long-term management, our trusted GI team is here to provide education, personalized treatment options, and guidance every step of the way.

If you or a loved one are experiencing symptoms like difficulty swallowing, food getting stuck, chronic reflux, or chest discomfort, don’t ignore the signs. Early diagnosis and treatment can make a meaningful difference.

This EOE Awareness Month, we stand with patients and families raising awareness, encouraging understanding, and supporting better digestive health for our community.
