At Oasis Advanced Gastroenterology, we believe preventive care is one of the most effective ways to maintain long-term digestive and liver health. Our preventive screening services help detect potential problems at their earliest stages.
Led by Dr. Mehrdad Asgeri, a board-certified gastroenterologist in Coachella, our clinic serves patients across Rancho Mirage, Palm Springs, La Quinta, and the wider Coachella Valley with colon cancer screenings designed to safeguard health and provide peace of mind.
Digestive and liver diseases often develop silently, showing few or no symptoms until they are advanced. Colon cancer, for example, can begin as small polyps in the colon that may take years to turn cancerous. Digestive cancer prevention is a major reason for preventive screenings. Similarly, liver disease can progress without obvious warning signs until significant damage has occurred, making early detection testing crucial for liver disease prevention.
Preventive screenings allow us to:
We provide targeted preventive screenings that focus on high-impact areas of digestive and liver health.
Colon cancer screening is one of the most important steps in preventing and detecting colorectal cancer. One out of four individuals aged over 45, will develop small growth of the lining of the large intestine (polyps). Polyps can grow to colon cancer. Our screening programs are tailored to your personal risk factors, age, and medical history.
We use colonoscopy as the primary screening tool, which allows Dr. Asgeri to view the inside of the colon, remove polyps, and collect biopsies if needed. This procedure not only detects cancer but also prevents it by removing polyps before they become malignant.
You may need to begin colon cancer screening if you:
Our clinic in Coachella offers both initial and follow-up colonoscopies in a comfortable, safe environment, helping patients across Coachella Valley take control of their digestive health.
Your liver plays a vital role in digestion, metabolism, and detoxification. Chronic liver diseases, such as fatty liver disease or hepatitis can progress to cirrhosis if not detected and managed early. Our liver health monitoring services identify problems before they cause significant damage.
We provide:
Liver health screenings are especially important for patients with risk factors such as heavy alcohol use, obesity, diabetes, hepatitis infection, or a family history of liver disease.
Through regular monitoring, our team can track changes, adjust treatment plans, and prevent further progression toward cirrhosis or liver failure.
Pancreatic risk assessments are designed to identify individuals at higher risk for developing pancreatic cancer and provide a personalized plan for early detection. Our program evaluates personal and family medical history, genetic risk factors, and lifestyle considerations to create a targeted screening strategy.
For high-risk patients, screening may include advanced imaging such as endoscopic ultrasound in Coachella or MRI, as well as genetic counseling for pancreatic cancer to determine inherited risk. Detecting pancreatic cancer at an early stage significantly improves treatment options and outcomes.
You may benefit from a pancreatic cancer risk assessment if you:
Serving patients from Rancho Mirage, Palm Springs, La Quinta, and across the Coachella Valley digestive health community, we provide comprehensive evaluations, including Advanced Endoscopic Ultrasound evaluation in a supportive setting to help you stay ahead of potential pancreatic disease.
We understand that every patient’s risks and health concerns are unique. That’s why preventive screenings at Oasis Advanced Gastroenterology are tailored to your individual needs. We take into account your medical history, family history, lifestyle factors, and current symptoms to recommend the right screenings at the right time.
The right time to start preventive screenings depends on the type of test and your personal risk profile. For example:
We guide you through these timelines so you never miss a critical opportunity for early detection.
