In this episode Dr. Levy shares his first hand experience with patients who are getting diagnosed with CRC at younger ages, his personal tips for the colonoscopy bowel prep, and details the amazing ways his combined passions for music, medicine and concert organizing have resulted in successful public health initiatives.
