Many of the top reported barriers to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening were specific to screening colonoscopy¹

Renee, 49

Always busy taking care of others, struggles to find time for herself.

• Working mother of 3 children
• No reported symptoms of CRC
• Missed last year’s physical

“Cologuard can be completed easily at home, and won’t require me—or my kids—to slow down.”

Mary, 55

Believes that even talking about cancer can make it a reality.

• Presents with insomnia and fatigue
• History of hypertension and anxiety
• Overdue for preventive screenings

“Cologuard can screen me for CRC at home, which makes me feel more comfortable than an in-office procedure."

Alex, 63

Takes life one day at a time, stays focused on the present.

• Truck driver and Little League coach
• Distrustful of the healthcare system
• Had a negative experience with colonoscopy in the past

“Cologuard was a good choice for me. With no preparation or anesthesia, I got right back on the road.”
