Mammogramathon offered Oct. 11 and Oct. 18 at TRMC-Sunnyvale

1294687627SUNNYVALE — Women live busy lives. So, Texas Regional Medical Center at Sunnyvale is making it easier for all women in North Texas to get mammograms.

TRMC-Sunnyvale will offer mammograms for $99 throughout the month of October, filing necessary paperwork with each patient’s insurance provider. The hospital also will host special Mammogramathon events from 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Oct. 11 and 18, where women who receive mammograms will receive shoulder massages, snacks and many giveaways. It’s the hospital’s fourth year to host the event.

“Appointments for mammograms are necessary for ensuring good health,” said Scott Smith, TRMC-Sunnyvale’s new director of imaging services. “We don’t want inconvenience and expense to be reasons why women don’t receive mammograms they need.”

Please call 972-892-3000 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays to schedule appointments. Appointment slots will fill up quickly, Smith said.

“About 300 women received mammograms at TRMC-Sunnyvale in October 2012,” Smith said. “We have every reason to believe this year’s effort will be even more popular.”

American Cancer Society recommends women 40 or older receive screening mammograms once a year.
