The 20th Annual UPMC Hamot MammoMarathon is an opportunity for women to get an important health screening with many extra activities to enjoy such as raffles and refreshments.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month focuses on the importance of mammograms, the screening test for breast cancer, which can help find breast cancer early when it’s easier to treat.
MammoMarathon began in 2006 and going strong for 20 years.
Women 40 and over who have not had a mammogram in the last year are eligible to participate in this event. Schedule an appointment at 814-877-6123.
Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins are welcome. If you have health insurance, it will be billed for the screening mammogram.
Women without health insurance are welcome and encouraged to come for a screening mammogram; assistance will be provided to cover the cost by the Sandra Lynn Martin (SLM) Breast Cancer Fund at Hamot Health Foundation.
Friday, Oct. 16, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. UPMC Hamot Breast Imaging at Sterling Square, 3406 Peach Street Building A.
