According to American Cancer Society data, 2 million new cases of cancer and over 600,000 cancer related deaths are projected for 2024. With the increasing incidence of lung, colorectal, brain, and pancreatic cancers, Florida is predicted to have the second highest death rate in the nation.
Early onset cancers in people under 50 years of age has increased globally by an astonishing 79%, which dramatically shifts the demographics of the cancer patient away from the elderly, and toward middle and younger age groups – making early diagnosis critical. This increased incidence of cancer, coupled with the essential need for early detection, has led Advanced Urgent Care to develop a new program for early cancer screening. It incorporates a dual imaging approach using CT and MRI – both of which are accessible and affordable through Advanced Urgent Care. After initial consultation, patients will be scheduled for the following diagnostic scans:
Once testing is complete, patients will have their scans reviewed and analyzed by the physician. Results and potential next steps will be discussed with the patient. Acknowledging the critical importance of early cancer screening, and the prohibitive costs of local, competitive providers, Advanced Urgent Care is thrilled to offer this package for a cash price of $2000. This unique program is not covered by insurance. To learn more about this program, please visit the Cancer Screening page. |
