Stay on Top of Your Breast Health by Scheduling Your Annual Mammogram with Women’s Health Associates in Boise.
Did you know that one in eight women will get diagnosed with breast cancer during her lifetime? As women age, their risk of breast cancer increases. It’s recommended that women over 40 get a mammogram yearly, depending on their preference and health history.
At Women’s Health Associates in Boise, we understand how challenging it can be to schedule a mammogram. We’re a team of working women with families, and we know how busy daily life can get.
Our mission is to help women quickly access quality healthcare. We offer state-of-the-art 2D/3D mammography services right in our office.
Contact our office today to schedule an appointment.
A mammogram includes an x-ray image of your breast. Mammograms can help look for breast cancer in women who don’t have symptoms or signs of the disease. Screening mammograms include multiple x-rays images of each breast.
A screening mammogram is typically used for women older than 40. Some women might need to get mammograms earlier based on their risk factors. Your healthcare provider will discuss that with you.
At Women’s Health Associates, you can get your mammogram at the same time as your annual preventative wellness exam. You don’t have to schedule those two appointments at different times and locations.
You’ll receive your mammogram in a private exam room. We also offer a private changing area in the same room where you’ll get your mammogram.
Your healthcare provider will monitor your mammograms using the same system that your women’s health medical records are maintained and managed. We typically receive the results of your mammogram within 24-48 hours. We’re proud to partner with the leading screening mammography service to provide exceptional results.
Contact our office at 208-338-8900 to learn more about our mammography services.
You’ll get welcomed by our compassionate staff members when you come for your appointment in our Boise office.
Avoid any unexpected health issues by staying on top of your breast health.
Just a note….women aged 40 should schedule a baseline screening mammogram.

Our Genius™ 3D Mammography™ exam, available on a Selenia® Dimensions® system from Hologic, is revolutionizing how breast cancer is detected by providing a better option for women of all breast densities compared to 2D alone.1-2 Researchers have found that:
More than 8 million Genius™ exams have been performed in the U.S, and women have responded very positively to this procedure. According to a recent survey of women who received a Genius™ 3D Mammography™ exam and had previously had a traditional 2D exam5:
The Genius™ 3D Mammography™ (a.k.a. Genius™ exam) is acquired on the Hologic® 3D Mammography™ system and consists of a 2D and 3D™ image set, where the 2D image can be either an acquired 2D image or a 2D image generated from the 3D™ image set.
