Dr. Edward Esber and a Patient’s Family Promote Colonoscopies in the Battle with Colon Cancer

AMSURG Partner Gastroenterologist, Edward Esber, M.D., FACG, FASGE, and the McCool family recently shared their story of battling colon cancer. Tracy’s husband, John, was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer in the fall of 2018. In hopes of encouraging others to take action now before it’s too late, Tracy is sharing the message of early screening. “Don't put off that colonoscopy… It’s not complicated, it’s a simple procedure and it really does save lives.”
