Women's Health

YW Women’s Health can help you take care of yourself and get you the breast health care services that every woman deserves. We offer free mammograms, follow-up diagnostic services, and case management.

There are many clinics in Dallas County where you can get a mammogram and mobile clinics are available as well. We can even provide you with transportation to your screening.

You’ll also learn how to do weekly breast self-examinations, so you can make sure nothing changes between your yearly mammograms.

If something is found on your mammogram, free follow-up diagnostic services are available at Methodist Hospital in Oak Cliff.

YW Women’s Health also has Patient Navigators to help manage the services you need and give you support with every step.

Early detection of breast cancer can help save your life. Get the care you need. Get the care you deserve.
