The breast care program coordinates breast care services for women in our communities.
Our multidisciplinary team of health care professionals provides a range of
services from routine screening examinations to the diagnosis and treatment
of breast cancer. Together, our health care team provides services and support
to help women make informed decisions about their breast care.
The president of Allina's Virginia Piper Cancer Institute responds to the United States Preventive Services Task Force recommendation on routine screening mammography in women, 40 to 49 years old.
"We are proud of our comprehensive breast care program. Our hospitals,
physicians, and clinics are united in their efforts to provide the complete
services required for highest quality breast care."
