St. John’s Health takes a comprehensive approach to women’s
health issues, including breast health. From prevention and screening
to treatment and survivorship, St. John’s Health is here for you.
We offer a variety of health care options to detect, treat, and help patients
beat breast cancer.
Diagnostic Imaging
Following American Cancer Society guidelines, St. John’s Health recommends
a yearly mammogram for all women, starting at age 40. St. John’s
Health is certified by the American College of Radiology as a Breast Imaging
Center of Excellence, the only hospital in the region to earn this distinction.
Our board-certified radiologists provide comprehensive breast services,
integrating 3-D computer-aided mammography and ultrasound for the highest
quality care
You will experience a cushioning system for a softer mammogram
We offer ultrasound, stereotactic, and MRI-guided breast biopsies, as well
as sentinel node mapping
Getting your screening at St. John’s Health assures that you are
receiving the highest quality service and imaging.
Board-certified oncologists from Huntsman Cancer Institute visit St. John’s
Health twice a month to conduct evaluations for local patients. Additionally,
our nationally certified oncology nurse practitioners and chemotherapy/biotherapy
certified oncology nurses provide daily care, infusions, and procedures.
Each patient has an individualized treatment plan coordinated with diagnostic
imaging, medical and radiation oncology, and plastic surgery.
Your cancer care treatment might also include:
A Tumor Board comprised of multi-disciplinary providers ensures high-quality
management of your cancer treatments
Individualized treatment plans
Brachytherapy services and follow-up visits for radiology treatment
People who have completed or who are undergoing cancer treatment are eligible
for free survivorship services. This program aims to help survivors and
their loved ones heal from the challenges that can result from cancer
and its treatments.
Survivorship services for patients, caregivers, and family members include:
Our board-certified general surgeons provide evaluations and treatment,
including skin-sparing/nipple-sparing mastectomy, along with breast-conserving therapy.
Surgical options include sentinel lymph node biopsy and oncoplastic resections,
as well as prophylactic mastectomy for patients who have the BRCA gene mutation.
St. John’s Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery is available to build
comprehensive treatment plans that are tailored to every patient’s
needs. Our board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon conducts
a consultation before making breast reconstruction recommendations. Options
include immediate implant-based reconstruction and delayed breast reconstruction,
with the option of using autologous (own tissue) reconstruction.
Reconstructive surgery includes the use of SPY technology, enabling surgeons
to visualize blood flow in vessels
