Breast Health Clinic
If you’re concerned about a breast lump, have another symptom that may result from breast cancer (like nipple discharge or pain), or have an abnormal mammogram, ease your mind and have it evaluated at the Breast Health Clinic at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) or UW Medical Center-Northwest or Roosevelt.
They provide thorough and concise evaluations of breast abnormalities, develop individual screening plans for people at higher-than-average risk for breast cancer, and treat benign breast problems as well as breast cancer. Patients at the Breast Health Clinic have easy access to several imaging technologies available in all locations.
What to expect
When you visit the SCCA Breast Health Clinic, you can expect:
- A discussion of breast imaging tests, such as digital mammography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- A clinical breast exam by an experienced breast specialist and appropriate follow-up care as directed by your provider
- Minor procedures, such as needle sampling or biopsy
- Pre- and post-operative care, if you are having or have had breast surgery
