Prevention & Early Detection

Prevention and early detection are our best weapons for winning the battle against cancer. At St. Joseph's, we are committed to improving the health of our community by providing information on healthy lifestyle choices to decrease the risk of cancer. Changing lifestyle behaviors can be one of the most effective ways to prevent cancer.

Women's Wellness Center

Our Women's Wellness Center provides free breast exams, mammograms, pap smears, pelvic exams, and rectal exams to low-income and unisured women. We also focus on teaching women ways to reduce their cancer risks, including risks of skin cancer, cervical cancers, and colorectal cancers. For more information on our wellness clinic, please call 602-406-6570.

Screening and diagnostic mammography, ultrasound, and stereotactic biopsy are available in our mammography suite where we use state-of-the-art technology for breast imaging and diagnostics. We also have surgeons on staff who specialize in breast surgery, including breast conservation, breast reconstruction, and sentinel node biopsy techniques.
