Cancer Doesn't Wait Transcript [Dr. Lisa Richardson] Cancer doesn't wait, neither should you. We know COVID-19 is on everyone's mind right now. [Dr. Robert Carlson] But that doesn't mean you should neglect your routine healthcare. It's important to take care of yourself by doing regular cancer screenings. Screening checks your body for cancer before you have symptoms. [Dr. Laura Makaroff] Regular screening tests may find breast, cervical and colon cancers early, when treatment is likely to work best. [Dr. Robert Carlson] Lung cancer screening is recommended for some people who are at high risk. [Dr. Lisa Richardson] Talk with your doctor now about when and how often you should be screened -- before you develop symptoms. [Dr. Robert Carlson] If you're having symptoms, take action now and call a doctor. [Dr. Lisa Richardson] Finding cancer early improves your chances of living longer. [Dr. Laura Makaroff] Make sure to ask your doctor about the steps they're taking to keep you safe during visits. [Dr. Lisa Richardson] Remember, cancer doesn't wait.
