Breast cancer screening recommendations

Breast cancer prevention is a high priority for us. Our goal is to emphasize how important self-examinations and regular screenings are to ongoing early detection and the most effective cure.

The American Cancer Society recommends these screening guidelines for most women:

• Breast self-exams (BSE) — Women should know how their breasts usually look and feel, and promptly report any changes to their health care provider. BSE is an option for women starting at 20 years old.
• Clinical breast exam — Completed about every three years for women who are 20 to 30 years old and every year for women 40 years old and older.
• Yearly mammograms — Recommend starting at 40 years old and continuing for as long as a woman is in good health.

Based on family history, genetic tendencies or other hereditary factors, some women should have MRI screenings, in addition to mammograms. Talk with your doctor about your history and whether you should have additional tests at an earlier age.

Our women's care options include traditional and robot-assisted surgeries. Minimally invasive surgery, such as robot-assisted surgery, minimizes scarring, uses smaller incisions and helps shorten recovery time. Robotic procedures include:

• Endometriosis surgery
• Hysterectomy
• Myomectomy
• Sacrocolpopexy

We understand that bringing a new baby into the family is a big adjustment. Our maternity team is ready for you and your baby with a variety of care options. We offer antepartum, childbirth education, labor and delivery, and postpartum services. You also have the option of choosing a certified nurse midwife for your delivery experience.

Private postpartum rooms, private lactation areas and overnight accommodations for partners allow us to make your experience as family friendly as possible. Delivery services, cesarean section (C-section) procedures and baby nursery are located within our maternity area.

Some newborns need advanced care when born prematurely. Other infants need medical support during an illness. The team in our Level III NICU is ready to watch over your baby with around-the-clock care. We are specially equipped to care for babies born at any gestational age.

We involve multiple medical specialists with training in infant care. Protocols are in place to minimize the frequency of common neonatal complications with our state-of-the-art equipment. Rooms are set up with pullout beds so that you or a family member can be nearby. Our goal is to help your baby grow, develop and gain strength, so that they can go home with you.
