Comprehensive Services Under One Roof

Our center offers a full spectrum of breast health services:

Personalized Support Every Step of the Way

Our dedicated team of healthcare professionals, including our certified Breast Cancer Navigator, truly sets us apart. This specialist guides patients through every phase of their journey, from diagnosis to treatment, providing crucial support and information when needed.

Online Risk Assessment

Taking proactive steps toward breast health has never been easier. The Erlanger High Risk and Cancer Genetics Program offers a free, HIPAA-compliant risk assessment that gathers personal and family history to help identify any genetic predispositions you may have to developing cancer. If the questionnaire results require further conversation, a nurse navigator will contact you to walk through the results and discuss the next steps. By shedding light on any cancer risk, we are able to make informed decisions about your health and focus on risk-reduction strategies for cancer prevention and/or early detection.

Convenient Access to Care

With five Center for Breast Health locations throughout the region, expert breast care is always nearby. We understand that convenience is crucial for preventive care, which is why we’ve established multiple facilities to better serve our community.

Early detection saves lives. Whether you’re due for your annual mammogram, are interested in genetic testing, or need specialized breast care, our team is here to help.
