In a recent article published February 18, 2026 for TAPinto, Rujuta Saksena, MD, hematologist/oncologist – Medical Director at Atlantic Health CentraState Medical Center, answers five important questions about cancer screening – from when to begin routine screenings to who may benefit from high-risk screening
and genetic testing.
Dr. Saksena emphasizes that screening, combined with healthy lifestyle choices and an understanding of your personal and family history, can play an important role in reducing cancer risk and improving outcomes.
Her key message: don’t wait for symptoms to take action. Talk with your healthcare provider about which screenings are right for you and when you should begin.
