Dr. David Kastenberg on KYW Newsradio About New Colonoscopy Preparation
Dr. David Kastenberg, a gastroenterologist at Jefferson, spoke with KYW Newsradio about new ways for patients to prep for a colonoscopy. According to the interview, now doctors are prescribing one liter of liquid at night and another the morning of the procedure.
"Another option is to take the whole preparation on the morning of the colonoscopy. The advantage of that is you don't have any interference with your sleep the night before or your work or whatever you're doing," Dr. Kastenberg told KYW Newsradio.
