Deep Creek Colon & Rectal Surgery, PC Support Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month

Dress in Blue Day, established by the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, is designed to bring awareness to end colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer in the United States, but it is highly preventable with screening.

Lynda Dougherty, MD, FACS, FASCRS, and her team at Deep Creek Colon & Rectal Surgery, PC, are showing their support for colorectal cancer awareness month. Deep Creek Colon and Rectal Surgery, PA, provides patients with subspecialty care in colorectal surgery and proctology not previously available in western Maryland.

Dougherty’s office offers in-office procedures at her practice on 880 Memorial Drive and performs colonoscopies at Garrett Regional Medical Center. To learn more or to make an appointment, contact 301-334-4340.
