Screening Event for LGBTQ+ Individuals

LGBTQ+ individuals seeking preventative care are welcome at an inclusive cancer screening event.
 

Nyack, N.Y. March 8, 2024 – The best defense against breast cancer is early detection. The earlier breast cancer is found, the easier it is to treat.

To register for an appointment for a screening mammogram, a physician’s referral is required.
