Women’s Imaging Center to offer free clinical breast exams

In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Beaufort Memorial Women’s Imaging Center is offering free clinical breast exams on Thursday, October 4, from 4 to 7 p.m. The center is located on the first floor of the Beaufort Medical Plaza, 989 Ribaut Road. The free clinical breast exams will be administered by Beaufort Memorial physicians and clinical specialists. Women will also have the opportunity to complete The Gail Model Breast Cancer Risk Assessment, a tool designed to estimate a woman’s risk of developing invasive breast cancer. Breast health specialists will be available to answer questions and make referrals for follow-up services, if needed. Light refreshments will be served and appointments are required. For an appointment, call (843) 522-5585. Appointments are very limited so they should be made as soon as possible. For more information about the Women’s Imaging Center, visit www.bmhsc.org.
