Prospect Medical would like to remind our members to get screened! More and more women are becoming survivors of breast cancer due to early detection and improvements of care. According to the American Cancer Society, there are more than 2.5 million women that are breast cancer survivors.
Surviving cancer is greatly increased if detection of any malignancy is caught as early as possible. If you or your loved ones are due for a mammogram we urge you to get screened. For a referral to a screening center, you can speak to your PCP.
