Inflatable Colon, Ynez

Have you ever wondered what the inside of your colon looks like?

Our Medium Inflatable Colon is an innovative educational resource for promoting colorectal health awareness to help your program increase screening in your patient population. Walking inside the colon one can see what normal colon tissue looks like, what a polyp looks like, and the transformation of an unremoved polyp into colon cancer.  We recommend that you partner “Ynez “with a staff member who can educate your guests on the basics of Colorectal Cancer Screening, explain risk factors and symptoms and outlines prevention tips, otherwise she may not make the impact you are hoping for. 

There is no charge for “Ynez” to attend your event.
