Milford Regional Medical Center to Host "Mammograms & Mimosas" on Sunday, Oct. 23

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and National Mammography Day, Milford Regional Medical Center will host “Mammograms & Mimosas,” a screening event for those who are due for their annual mammogram screening. “Mammograms & Mimosas” will be held on Sunday, October 23 from 9 a.m. to noon.

The event is sponsored by Milford Regional’s Cancer Committee and is being planned in concert with the hospital’s Department of Radiology and The Breast Center at Milford Regional Medical Center.

The Cancer Committee is led by oncologist/hematologist Natalie Sinclair, MD, who explains that the group was interested in supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month with its annual cancer screening event. “We hope this encourages women who have been putting off their annual screenings to participate in our event and make it an enjoyable morning,” said Dr. Sinclair.

In addition to the screening mammogram, participants will be offered free breakfast pastries, coffee and non-alcoholic mimosa drinks. Participants must be due for their annual screening mammogram and claims will be processed for insurance payments.

Space is limited and registration is required. Call 508.422.2665 and reference “Mammograms & Mimosas” when scheduling your Oct. 23 screening. Visit milfordregional.org for more information.
