“Mammograms & Mimosas” Set for Oct 27

In honor of Breast Cancer
Awareness Month (October), UMass Memorial Health - Milford Regional
Medical Center will again host “Mammograms & Mimosas,” an
event for those who are due for their annual mammogram screening.
“Mammograms & Mimosas” will be held on Sunday, October 27
from 8:30 to 10:45 a.m. at the main hospital located at 14 Prospect
St. in Milford.

The
event is sponsored by UMass Memorial Health – Milford Regional
Medical Center’s Cancer Committee and is being planned in concert
with the hospital’s Department of Radiology and the UMass Memorial
Health Breast Health practice.

“Over
the last two years, nearly 60 women have scheduled their annual
breast cancer screening during our Mammograms & Mimosas event,
inspiring us to continue the tradition of the October event,” said
oncologist/hematologist and Cancer Committee Chair Natalie Sinclair,
MD. “By providing mammograms on a Sunday, we aim to give busy women
the flexibility to schedule their screening at a more convenient
time, while also making their appointment a little more special.”

In
addition to the screening mammogram, participants will be offered a
free breakfast of pastries, coffee and non-alcoholic mimosa drinks.
Participants must be due for their annual screening mammogram and
claims will be processed for insurance payments.

Space
is limited and registration is required. Call 508.422.2665 and
reference “Mammograms & Mimosas” when scheduling your October
27 screening.
