Health Maintenance: Screening and controversies
Daily we are reminded of health care screenings that we should have; but do we need them all. Some may at best be expensive at worst be harmful. PSA tests, colonoscopies, mammograms, cholesterol tests; what is the current thought on these. Medical societies don't agree- the answers are not easy or even the same for everybody. Dr. Pinkerton will give some answers to help you to make the right choices.
