Because your experience is our top priority, you can also expect:
- Two easily accessible outpatient offices in Hamburg and Orchard Park, less than 20 minutes away from most Southtowns communities.
- Early morning, evening and Saturday hours.
- Appointments that generally take less than an hour.
- Results of mammography screening, including your breast density, in person*, via phone call or mail.
- *Screening mammography appointments scheduled M-F between 8:30am and 4pm will receive same day, in-person results.
- A personalized 10-year and lifetime breast cancer risk assessment using the Tryer-Cruzick model included in the report to your healthcare provider.
