FREE Clinical Breast Exam Screen
This year about 1 million Americans will develop breast cancer. If detected early, 95% can be successfully treated. Columbus Regional Health is hosting a FREE clinical breast exam to detect possible breast cancer and to provide referrals for those who may need a follow-up mammogram.
Should you be screened?
If you are age 40 or older and answer “yes” to all of the following statements, you should register today for your FREE exam:
1) I have not had a breast exam or mammogram within the last 12 months.
2) I do not have health insurance or my insurance does not cover screenings.
3) I do not have a pre-existing breast condition or I have not been treated for breast
cancer in the past 5 years.
Meet the skilled physicians conducting the screenings:
Dr. Carlos Vieira, MD, Fellowship Trained Breast Surgeon
