Spots are limited. Proceed through the screening questions to schedule your appointment. If appointment slots are full, you’ll still have the opportunity to schedule your mammogram on a date outside of this event.
As a thank-you, everyone who schedules a mammogram appointment at EmpowerHER Day will receive a free gift.
Please note: registering for EmpowerHER Day does not automatically schedule your mammogram. You must complete both steps separately.
Bring your questions, bring a friend and most of all — bring yourself. Let’s celebrate your strength, health and future together.
