I remember how much I used to dread going for my yearly screening mammography. I went to a hospital where the setting was kind of cold, and I knew that the procedure I was about to undergo was gonna hurt. Or at least be very uncomfortable.

But I don’t dread going for my yearly mammography anymore, because last year I found PINK Breast Centers. And I’m so happy about it.

Next week, I’ll have my yearly mammo at PINK Breast Centers. You can’t believe how much less compression they use ... which of course, means MUCH less discomfort! And PINK's Better 3D Mammo is better for you, too, because it uses 30% to 50% less radiation.

I feel so much more confident knowing the 3D technology PINK Breast Centers uses does a better job at finding cancers than 2D, so I can count on fewer false negatives and false positives. After all, they are using the first FDA-approved AI software with crystal clear images — not those fuzzy blobs you might have seen at your last mammo. That’s peace of mind we can all appreciate.

Now with 16 convenient locations throughout New Jersey, there’s bound to be one close to you. I was shocked when I saw how magnificent the facility is and how warm and comforting the staff is.

So you’re probably wondering (like I was): There’s got to be an extra charge for all of this, right? Nope, not at all. Annual screening mammograms are completely covered by your insurance, and no prescription is required for females over 40.

For your next mammogram, I urge you to visit PINK Breast Centers. You can book online at pinkbreastcenters.com. The moment you walk in you will see and feel the difference. But don't put it off — breast cancer doesn't wait, but everything else can.
