Marshall Health Network provides free cancer screenings through See, Test & Treat program

Monday, April 8, 2024

Marshall Health Network’s St. Mary’s Breast Center and FaithHealth Appalachia have partnered to offer free mammograms and Pap tests to women through the College of American Pathologists (CAP) Foundation’s grant-funded See, Test & Treat program.

The event will take place at the Breast Center, located at 2900 1st Avenue in Huntington, on Saturday, April 20, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Attendees will receive same-day results with opportunities to enjoy light refreshments, gift bags and pampering. Women who are uninsured or underinsured in the Huntington and surrounding communities must register for the event as spaces are limited.

“We hope this free program will connect women in our community with services they need to stay healthy,” said Anne Hammack, clinical coordinator of the Breast Center. “It is so important that women get screened early for breast and cervical cancer because catching these cancers in their early stages can literally save their lives - both of these cancers are easier to treat earlier on than in later stages.”

To register, please call 304.526.1492 or visit faithhealthappalachia.org/see-test-treat/. Transportation is available for those in Cabell County who need assistance getting to their scheduled appointment.
