1. Mammograms save lives. Mammograms are the best tool to detect breast cancer early in its most treatable stages.
2. They don’t take long. A screening mammogram typically takes 30 minutes or less door-to-door. It may be the quickest medical appointment you ever have!
3. If you get your mammogram early, breakfast is on us! During the month of September, Presbyterian Breast Center is offering an early bird special with free breakfast for women who schedule their mammogram before 9 a.m.
4. Our locations are near where you live and work. Presbyterian Breast Center has seven convenient locations in Ballantyne, Eastover, Huntersville, Matthews, Monroe, University and Uptown.
5. They’re covered under your health plan. Most health insurance companies cover screening mammograms for women ages 40 and older or earlier for women at high-risk for developing breast cancer.
6. We’re all girls here. Presbyterian Breast Center has a highly trained staff of all female technologists.
7. We’re open early, late and on weekends! Presbyterian Breast Center offers extended hours and weekend appointments at some locations to help accommodate the schedules of busy women.
8. You get results back fast. Presbyterian Breast Center offers results within seven business days, which is far better than the national average of 30 days.
9. We’ve got the know-how. Presbyterian Breast Center has been named a Breast Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology and is accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers. All of our mammograms are taken digitally and are read by our board-certified physicians who are fellowship-trained.
