Diagnostic breast care program
More than 60 percent of women diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history of the disease - or any other identifiable risk factor. Today, one in eight women will develop the disease.
Early detection can be a lifesaver-- early detection often means a more than 90 percent chance of cure. Mammography, physician visit annually and monthly breast self-exams are a woman’s best chances for early detection.
Managed by a nurse oncologist, the breast care resource program supports women at all stages of breast disease: screening, diagnosis, treatment, recurrence, follow-up and survivorship.
Family and friends are welcome as an integral part of the program. A breast cancer support group is available through Saint Joseph’s Cancer Survivors Network.
