We offer a wide range of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of our patients.

Our team works closely with referring physicians to ensure seamless communication and coordinated care. Whether you’re coming in for a routine screening or a more detailed diagnostic assessment, we are here to guide you every step of the way.
Our services are designed to address a variety of breast health concerns. We support patients who are undergoing routine screenings, as well as those who may have found a lump, experienced unusual symptoms, or have a family history of breast cancer. We also assist individuals with dense breast tissue, which can sometimes make detection more challenging. For those with previous breast cancer diagnoses, we provide follow-up imaging and monitoring to track changes over time. Additionally, we offer guidance and resources for patients navigating genetic testing and risk assessment. Our goal is to help patients understand their options and feel supported in making informed decisions about their care.

Question: How often should I get a mammogram?
Answer: The recommended frequency of mammograms depends on your age, risk factors, and medical history. For most women, annual mammograms are advised starting at age 40. However, if you have a family history of breast cancer or other risk factors, your healthcare provider may recommend starting earlier or screening more frequently. We encourage you to discuss your individual needs with your doctor to determine the best screening schedule for you.
Question: What should I bring to my first appointment?
Answer: For your first visit, please bring a valid photo ID, your insurance card, and any relevant medical records or previous imaging results. If you’re being referred by a physician, a referral form or order may also be required. Wearing comfortable clothing is recommended, as you may need to change into a gown for the exam. If you have any specific concerns or questions, feel free to bring a list to discuss with our team during your visit.
