What to Expect During Your Visit

Before Your Appointment

Most screening mammogram appointments take less than 30 minutes, less than a typical doctor’s visit, making our services convenient and accessible for working women and busy moms who can call to schedule a potentially life-saving screening over a lunch break or before or after work at one of our centers that offers extended or even weekend hours.

Here are a few guidelines to help you prepare for your exam:

• Inform the scheduling specialist if you have breast implants
• Have prior films sent to the breast center before your exam
• Please arrive 15 to 20 minutes before your appointment
• Wear two-piece clothing
• Bring your insurance information
• Please do not wear powder or deodorant
• Please do not bring small children unless you are also bringing someone to watch them
