We have all seen the USA statistics in this blog http://drwinsett.blogspot.com/2012/09/one-important-statistic.html.
Five year survival for breast cancer limited to the breast is 98%.
How do we achieve that success?
- Appropriate screening, which means individualizing the recommendation for breast cancer screening to the woman based on her risk determined by:
- Personal history
- Family history
- Personal genetics
- Clinical characteristics like breast density
We offer a personal Breast Cancer Risk Assessment individualized to you derived from the information above and possibly the HALO Breast Pap Test, The BREVAGen Breast Cancer RIsk Assessment and/or BRACAnalysis (which ever may apply). With this information we are able to give you a risk assessment and tailor the screening to you. Call us 512-451-5788.
Fortunately, most of you will never get breast cancer, but for those that will, our goal is to find it EARLIER!!
EARLIER doesn't just mean better treatment options but THE BEST!!!
THE BEST!!! discussed in the next blog post. Please check back tomorrow.
Together we can prevent 86,000 breast cancers this year.
