Your Breast Health Deserves Specialized Care

Here’s Why It Matters Where You Get Your Mammogram

Not all mammograms are created equal

When it comes to breast health, early detection is everything. But what many women don’t realize is where you get your mammogram — and who reads it — can make all the difference.

At our practice, we offer in-house mammography with one goal in mind: your breast health comes first. Here’s what sets us apart and why we strongly encourage every gynecology patient to have their mammogram done here — not elsewhere.

Why You Should Choose Our In-House Mammography

A radiologist who specializes in mammography

Most hospitals and imaging centers use general radiologists who interpret all kinds of imaging: head CTs, back MRIs, abdominal ultrasounds, chest x-rays — and mammograms. This means breast imaging is just one small part of their day.

At our practice, our radiologist is focused exclusively on breast imaging. That means:

  • A deep familiarity with the subtleties of breast anatomy

  • A higher likelihood of detecting early-stage cancers

  • A better eye for nuanced changes compared to general radiologists

The right technology for early detection

We use the original Hologic Genius™ 3D mammography system — the very machine that was used in landmark studies proving that 3D mammography finds more invasive cancers than 2D alone.

  • Earlier detection = better outcomes

  • Fewer false positives = less anxiety and fewer unnecessary biopsies

  • Proven performance = peace of mind

 

Patient Review

“I had an amazing experience getting my mammogram at Manatee Gynecology. From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel comfortable—the warmed robe was such a thoughtful touch. The techs were incredibly kind, professional, and made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. I was shocked at how quick and painless it was, and I received my results the same day. Truly the best mammogram experience I've ever had!”

 

Smart Questions to Ask Any Imaging Center

Before you schedule a mammogram anywhere, ask:

  • Who will read my mammogram?
    Is it a radiologist who reads mostly breast imaging or a general radiologist who reads everything?

  • What certifications do they have?
    Are they experienced in breast imaging?

  • How many mammograms do they read per day?
    Are they truly immersed in breast health?

If you’re not getting clear, confident answers — your health may not be their priority.
