Moncrief Cancer Institute and UT Southwestern Medical Center recently partnered to provide free breast and cervical cancer screenings for underserved women at “See, Test & Treat.” Nearly 60 women received free mammograms and Pap tests with same-day results, and anyone needing follow-up care was scheduled that day for an appointment. We are thankful to the CAP Foundation for the grant to host this important screening day and to the UT Southwestern Pathology Department for leading the effort!
