Schedule your screening mammogram with confidence

In response to Gov. Greg Abbott’s recommendations to introduce certain healthcare procedures back into Texas hospitals and clinics, we are scheduling screening mammograms. There is nothing more important to us than the health and well-being of our communities.

Our team members are taking many steps to protect your safety, including:

  • Asking all patients and staff to wear masks—this may be a cloth mask brought from home
  • Screening all patients at the time of scheduling and at time of appointment
  • Kindly asking all visitors to wait outside of the center
  • Limiting the number of patients in the center at the same time by reducing the number of appointments and expanding Saturday hours
  • You may receive a phone call to pre-register before your scheduled appointment to reduce wait time in the center
  • Limiting seating in lobbies and waiting areas
  • Thoroughly cleaning waiting areas, exam rooms, and equipment with disinfectants recommended by the CDC

Total breast care

Most women will experience some type of breast problem during their lifetime. The good news is that most breast disorders are not cancerous. However, your chance of developing breast cancer increases as you get older. That's why breast cancer screenings and examinations are so important—and where you go for these breast care services makes a difference.

While more than 300,000 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed this year according to the American Cancer Society, there are also many other breast health concerns.

Common breast conditions include:

  • Breast calcifications
  • Breast cysts
  • Breast lumps
  • Breast nipple discharge
  • Breast pain
  • Dense breasts​​​

Breast cancer screen​​ing recommendations

 

According to the American Cancer Society, early screening saves lives. Mammograms are the most effective and important early breast cancer detection method.

 
  • All women: monthly breast self-exam
  • Women age 20 and older: clinical breast exam at annual physical
  • Women age 40 and older: yearly mammogram and clinical breast exam
  • Women at high risk for breast cancer: yearly MRI and mammogram
