 It's unnerving for a woman to hear that her mammogram looks "abnormal," or a breast lump feels "suspicious." The time it takes to schedule follow-up tests and appointments with specialists only increases her anxiety. To smooth the road for women facing the possibility of breast cancer, the Adventist Cancer Network coordinates medical expertise in a dedicated Breast Care Center. At the Center, a woman can get advice from a team of experts with a clear explanation of her options.  A specially trained nurse coordinates and streamlines the process (learn more about Patient Navigators). She schedules tests and expedites the results to a team of skilled, caring physicians who experts in the early detection, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

The Breast Care Center is set up to deliver definite benefits for women:
