Stay in the Game—Get Screened for Colon Cancer
Gastroenterology Specialties, Lincoln Endoscopy Center and their physicians all participate in the Stay in the Game campaign to encourage everyone over 50 to have a screening colonoscopy.
Blood Donation Drive
Because of the ongoing commitment of our physicians to promote blood donations, Gastroenterology Specialties schedules a blood mobile to visit our business every eight weeks where the staff donate during working hours. We thank the staff and physicians for their commitment to the community in providing the gift of life.
