These accomplishments and recognitions make our center the only dual-certified breast center in our region. St. Mary’s Breast Health Center offers
We want patients to understand that breast disease, including breast cancer, is treatable – and in many cases associated with long-term survival. We aim to be on the cutting edge of technology throughout each patient’s journey while providing a compassionate and seamless experience. It is our goal to make sure the patient feels educated and takes an active part in their treatment plan. What Is a High-Risk Breast Clinic?It’s a service dedicated to women who are at high risk of developing breast cancer. We perform a risk assessment on all patients who come to us for care. This pain-free assessment helps us measure the risk that a patient might have a genetic abnormality. Women found to be at high risk can then receive genetic testing to confirm or rule out abnormalities that could lead to breast disease. Other breast cancer risk assessment tools will be used as well, which would prompt recommendations for increased imaging surveillance handled through the high-risk clinic. Eligibility for genetic testing is based on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Guidelines. We handle this testing process, which is performed in our office, as well as result reporting and genetic counseling. |
