Mammograms in Sulphur Springs
The American College of Radiology recommends women at the age of 40 start receiving regular mammogram screenings, and younger if they have a family history of breast cancer. A routine screening mammogram is a highly effective test in the early detection of breast cancer. It could lead to treating and curing breast cancer before any symptoms ever surface.
CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital Sulphur Springs is the home of the Ruth & Jack Gillis Women’s Center. Sisters, Judy Gillis and Janet Jordan made an incredible contribution to the
Hopkins County Healthcare Foundation to name this center after their beloved parents. This facility is a one-stop-shop for female radiological needs including:
· Brand New Hologic 3-D mammography machine with needle biopsy
· Bone Density
· Ultrasounds
The Ruth & Jack Gillis Women’s Center is open every day from 8am to 4pm. To schedule your annual mammogram in Sulphur Springs, talk to your doctor, or call 903.438.4325.
