FREE Mammography screening eligibility is as follows:

  • Women aged 40 -79.
  • They must live in New York City.
  • Have not had a mammogram in the last 12 months.
  • Are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and do not have breast implants
  • Patients who have received a COVID-19 vaccine, should schedule their appointment 6 weeks after their second dose. A common side-effect of the vaccine is swollen underarm lymph nodes. To prevent call backs, it is recommended that women wait 4- 6 weeks to screen.
