Specialized Cancer Prevention and Outreach
Your breast cancer risk doesn’t have to be a guessing game. Our High-risk Breast Specialists, part of The Schmidt Family Center for Breast Care, offer breast cancer risk assessments and individualized prevention and detection plans. To further support the community, our Mobile Mammography (MammoVan) brings breast cancer screening and education to you. This convenient service travels throughout South Florida to offer 3D mammograms — the same type of advanced breast imaging you can get in a hospital or clinic.
Genetic Screening and Clinical Research
Certain mutations in your genes can increase your chances for developing cancer. At Baptist Health, we offer genetic screening to help you understand your risks, especially for common cancers like breast and colorectal. These tests can also provide early detection, so you can seek treatment when your chances of survival are highest. Furthermore, we’re committed to advancing women’s health care through clinical research and clinical trials.
