At CHOICES, we are committed to providing comprehensive, compassionate, and patient-centered healthcare, including essential breast exam services. We understand that breast health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and early detection of any changes can make a significant difference in treatment outcomes. Our highly trained medical professionals offer clinical breast exams in a safe, supportive environment where your concerns are heard, and your health is our priority.
What is a Clinical Breast Exam?
A clinical breast exam (CBE) is a thorough examination of the breasts performed by a healthcare provider. During this exam, our medical professionals carefully check for any abnormalities, including lumps, changes in skin texture, or other warning signs that may indicate a concern. This examination is an important preventive measure and can be performed as part of a routine wellness visit or if you notice any unusual changes in your breasts.
When Should You Get a Breast Exam?
A regular breast exam is an essential part of preventive healthcare. We recommend that individuals of all ages become familiar with their own breast health through self-exams and seek professional evaluation if they notice any changes. While mammograms are typically recommended for individuals over 40, clinical breast exams are valuable at any age, especially for those with a family history of breast cancer or other risk factors.
What to Expect During Your Visit for a Breast Exam
At CHOICES, we strive to create a comfortable and reassuring experience for every patient. During your breast exam appointment, your provider will:
- Discuss any breast health concerns you may have.
- Perform a gentle and thorough examination of your breasts, underarms, and surrounding areas.
- Provide education on breast self-awareness and guidance on monitoring changes at home.
- Recommend any follow-up care, including mammograms or additional screenings, if needed.
