Join CAASTLC for the “GALENTINE’S DAY HEALTHY GALS” Campaign!
This campaign is encouraging women to register for their annual mammograms now through Balentine’s Day, February 14th, at which time the Siteman Mammogram Van will be at CAASTLC providing mammograms. Mammograms are available at no cost for those who qualify. Women under 40 will need a provider’s order. If you’ve noticed any changes in your breasts, please contact your doctor before scheduling your screening.
EVENT DETAILS: The Siteman Cancer Center Mammogram Van will be offering mammograms to women aged 40 and over on the Mammogram Van.
Location: CAASTLC 2709 Woodson Road Overland, MO 63114
Date & Time: FRIDAY, FEDBRUARY 14, 2025 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM
TO SCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT: Call 314-747-7222 or 800-600-3606 (press option #2). When you speak with a scheduler, please mention the “Galentine’s Day Promotion” for a special treat!
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you can’t complete your screening during the Galentine’s Day event, still mention the “Galentine’s Day Promotion” and let the scheduler know to please schedule you at another day and location. The goal is to get as many women as possible scheduled for their annual mammogram. Celebrating Galentine’s Day is a great way to get on and stay on a healthy journey!
THE MAMMOGRAM VAN IS NOT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE: WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE. If you need access, please speak to our scheduler and ask for support to a Siteman facility.
FAQ’S:
Patients 40 and older do not need a physician order. We do need to know when the last screening mammogram was. If we cannot find anything locally, Siteman will scan as a baseline.
Anyone under 40 requires an order from a physician.
Mammograms are only covered “one time per year.”
If you do not have insurance, Siteman offers a grant program to those who qualify, and there are breast health navigators that can assist you with the process.
If you are undocumented, you may still receive a mammogram.
There’s no better time than now to take charge of your health.
