Early detection saves lives—and mammograms are one of the most effective tools for identifying breast cancer at its earliest, most treatable stages. Women over 40 should receive a screening mammogram every one to two years, or as recommended by their healthcare provider. These quick, non-invasive screenings can detect tumors before they can be felt and well before symptoms develop.

This fall, Assured Imaging will be at Orcas Senior Center offering convenient, on-island mammogram screenings. Mark your calendar for September 22-24, 2025, and take a proactive step in protecting your health.

Schedule your mammogram appointment today at www.assuredimaging.com/orcas or call Assured Imaging directly at 888-233-6121. No referral is necessary, and all major insurance plans are accepted.
