Each year, more than 13,000 women are diagnosed with #CervicalCancer in the U.S. (per NCCC-National Cervical Cancer Coalition). But the good news is a Pap test can find changes in the cervix before cancer develops. It can also find cervical cancer early when it’s most curable.
We offer free Pap tests for women who are ages 21 to 64 and who are uninsured or underinsured. This free screening is available at our Fort Worth facility and in many surrounding counties. For more information or to schedule an appointment: https://bit.ly/3vMkf7x
