  Cancer Screening
Faecal Occult Blood Test
 
 

“If only I had gone for regular screening and detected the cancer earlier, I would have been spared the agony of going through chemotherapy treatment for 3rd stage colon cancer. The treatment is expensive, uncomfortable, and you will suffer side effects. I urge everyone above 50 years old to go for the FOBT. It only takes a dip to save lives.”

- Mr Gerard Ee, Stage 3 Colorectal Cancer Survivor and Chairman of the National Kidney Foundation
