Screening is Self-Care: Why Annual Mammograms Matter

By Hasanthi Duvvuri | October 10, 2025

Did you know that screening is your strongest defense against breast cancer and other diseases? According to the American College of Radiology, starting annual mammograms at age 40 significantly boosts early detection. By age 30, a quick risk assessment can help you determine if earlier screening is right for you.

We know how important it is for women to take time for their health, and getting a mammogram is a vital step in self-care. But we also know that between family, work, and the everyday responsibilities of life, carving out time for appointments can feel overwhelming. That’s why we’re committed to making the process as simple, accessible, and comfortable as possible.

A Supportive Experience from Start to Finish
At Onvida Health, our dedicated Imaging team is here to support you every step of the way. Whether it’s your first time getting a mammogram or just your yearly check-in, we understand that this can be a sensitive and sometimes stressful experience.
Our imaging centers are designed with your comfort in mind, offering quick appointment times, experienced technologists, and state-of-the-art equipment that provides clear, reliable results. We’re here to answer your questions, ease your concerns, and ensure you feel supported throughout the entire process.

Affordability and Accessibility
One of the most common concerns we hear from patients is cost. The good news? For many women, insurance covers most—if not all—of the cost of a mammogram. That means you can feel confident scheduling your screening knowing you’re getting high-quality, affordable care without unnecessary financial stress. If you have questions about your insurance coverage or need assistance navigating your benefits, our team is happy to help.

Even better, you don’t need a referral to make your appointment. You can schedule directly at either of our convenient locations:

  • Onvida Health Parkview Medical Plaza
  • Onvida Health Foothills Medical Plaza

Appointments are available as early as the next day, making it easier than ever to fit your health into your schedule.

Why Now Is the Time
If it’s been more than a year since your last screening, or if you’ve never had a mammogram before, let this be your sign. Taking that first step can feel daunting, but you’re not alone.

Your health deserves your attention, not just when something feels wrong, but as a regular part of your routine. Onvida Health is proud to be your partner in prevention and wellness.

Schedule your mammogram today and take a powerful step toward protecting your health and your future. Because when you put yourself first, you’re not only investing in your own well-being, you’re showing strength, courage, and love for the life you’re building every day.
