Breast cancer screening isn't one-size-fits-all. Your personal breast cancer risk can help guide what's right for you.

Your age, family health history and other breast cancer risk factors can all play a role in when to begin screening. For people at average risk, screening mammograms often start at age 40, but your doctor can help you decide what’s right for you based on your health history and personal risk.

Beyond these achievements, Alexis is known as a culture champion, bringing teams together to advance our mission -- the care and improvement of human life.

Congratulations Alexis and welcome back to MountainView!
