At St. Joseph Hospital, we know the potential risk of breast cancer can lead to long, difficult periods of worrying, waiting and uncertainty. As the first comprehensive breast care center in the region, we simplify the process by brining all areas of breast health under one roof. Our Breast Care Center is even recognized as a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology.
Using the latest state-of-the-art technology, our expert staff offers compassionate care for all women. To prevent, diagnose and treat breast cancer, we provide 3D mammography, screening, diagnostic breast ultrasound, breast MRI, breast biopsy, cancer risk assessment and genetic counseling at three convenient locations. We’re proud to be a designated Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology.
Our specially trained breast health nurse practitioners provide breast health education, case management, advocacy and support — all available on-site by appointment. We also offer nutrition, psychosocial support and counseling by referral. Our board-certified breast radiologists are also on-site Tuesday through Friday.
Early detection serves as one of the most important tools in the fight against breast cancer. That’s why we offer an extensive list of screenings and services. Utilizing the latest technology, our goal is to detect any signs of concern as early as possible. We know waiting for important results can be stressful, which is why in most instances patients receive their results on the day of their visit.
