1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we honor these women and recognize their strength, courage, and resiliency in the fight against breast cancer through our "Pink Ladies" campaign.

You may have seen our Pink Ladies throughout our hospital and clinics in Thomaston, Barnesville, and Zebulon, serving as a reminder of the importance of awareness, early detection, and support.

Taking care of your breast health starts with regular screenings. Schedule your mammogram today by calling 706-647-8111, ext. 1114. Early detection saves lives. 💗
