Dr. Aladraine Sands shares information about preventative screenings.

There are four main areas for preventative screenings: cancer, chronic diseases, behavioral health and heart problems. The most common cancers to screen for are cervical, breast and colorectal. Patients can also be screened for lung and prostate cancer. In many cases, insurance covers these preventative screenings. If you have questions, make sure to talk to your doctor and make a plan.
