High Risk Assessment

Helping You and Your Family Reduce Your Risk of Breast Cancer

Who Should Be Evaluated?

Take our Quiz:

Consider both your mother's and father's side of the family. Do you have a family or personal history of any of the following (check only if your answer is Yes):

  • Breast Cancer < 50 years Old
  • Ovarian Cancer Any Age
  • Bilateral Breast Cancer Any Age
  • Both Breast and Ovarian Cancer Any Age
  • Male Breast Cancer Any Age
  • Ashkenazi Jewish Ancestry with Breast/Ovarian Cancer Any Age
  • Personal History of LCIS (Lobular Carcinoma in Situ)
  • Personal History of ADH (Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia)

If you checked any of the above boxes, then you may be at increased risk for breast cancer. In the High Risk Assessment Clinic we can evaluate your individual risk of developing breast cancer, provide genetic counseling and formulate a strategic plan to reduce your personal risk. You can then make an informed decision about BRCA gene testing, MRI imaging, chemoprevention or prophylactic surgery.

Early Detection and Risk Reduction are our key goals in the High Risk Assessment Clinic.

Please call today to set up an appointment where we can sit down together, review your risk factors, calculate your risk, and develop a breast health care plan to reduce your risk.

Please call the High Risk Assessment Clinic TODAY at 865.583.2922.
