Compassion
We treat every patient with empathy and dignity. Procedures that may feel intimidating become routine when you're cared for by people who truly listen.
About Us
Compassionate care, expertly delivered.
California Colon & Rectal Cancer Screening Center is a specialty gastroenterology practice serving the Central Valley with a singular mission: to protect our patients' health through early detection and expert preventive care.
Our Story
Rooted in the Central Valley, focused on what matters most.
Our practice was founded on the belief that great gastroenterology care should be accessible, comfortable, and rooted in genuine relationships. We chose to focus on colon cancer screening and digestive health because early detection truly does save lives — and because the patients of the Central Valley deserve specialists who treat them like neighbors, not numbers.
Today, our team of three board-certified physicians, supported by experienced nurses and clinical staff, provides expert screening colonoscopies, diagnostic procedures, and gastrointestinal care to thousands of patients each year — all from our welcoming Fresno facility on N Whitney Ave.
What We Stand For
The values that shape every patient interaction.
Excellence
Our physicians are board-certified in both internal medicine and gastroenterology — and we invest in the latest HD imaging technology and clinical protocols.
Prevention
We believe the best treatment for colon cancer is preventing it in the first place. That's why we focus relentlessly on accessible, comfortable screening.
Integrity
We tell you what you need to know, recommend what we'd recommend to our own families, and always put your health ahead of any other priority.
