When Should You Schedule a Mammogram?
Regular mammograms are one of the most effective tools for detecting breast cancer early, often before symptoms develop. You should talk with your provider about when to begin screening based on your age, personal health history, family history, and individual risk factors.
If you notice a lump, breast pain, nipple discharge, skin changes, or any other breast concern, don't wait for your next routine screening. Our team can help determine whether additional testing is needed.

What Happens After an Abnormal Mammogram?
Most abnormal mammogram results do not mean cancer. However, additional imaging or testing may be recommended to better understand the findings.
Depending on your results, follow-up care may include:
- Diagnostic mammography
- Breast ultrasound
- Breast MRI
- Image-guided biopsy
- Consultation with a breast specialist
Our Breast Health Nurse Navigators help coordinate appointments, answer questions, and guide patients through next steps with compassion and support.
High-Risk Breast Health Monitoring
