| Abstract: | Little is known about patients’ preferences for discussing cancer risks and risk management with primary care physicians.

Greater proportions were interested in discussing risks for each cancer, compared with those who were not (<F>P<0.0001</F>). More participants were interested in discussing mammograms (80%) and cancer genetic counseling (60%) than tamoxifen (49%) or colon cancer screening modalities (43–53%). For many topics, poorer perceived health was associated with greater interest in future discussion; higher education level was associated with less interest.
