MOULTRIE, GA —Located at 123 31st Ave. SE in Moultrie, Sterling Group Mammography offers mammography services with convenient walk-in availability Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The new location is designed to make it easier for women to prioritize their breast health and access recommended screenings close to home.
“Providing convenient access to preventive care is an important part of our commitment to the health and well-being of our community,” said Colquitt Regional President & CEO Jim Matney. “The opening of Sterling Group Mammography gives women another accessible option for breast health services and reinforces our dedication to helping patients receive the care they need close to home.”
In addition to mammography, DEXA bone density scanning and breast ultrasounds are also offered at Sterling Group Mammography.
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Colquitt Regional offered free mammograms throughout October to help increase access to early detection and encourage women to prioritize their breast health. The health system also showed its support by lighting the hospital pink throughout the month.
Additionally, the Colquitt Regional Medical Foundation’s third annual Pink Out The Night event brought the community together in support of breast cancer awareness, raising more than $60,000 to benefit the Edwards Cancer Center. The event continues to demonstrate the community’s commitment to supporting patients and families affected by breast cancer and enhancing cancer care close to home.
Regular mammograms play an important role in the early detection of breast cancer. Colquitt Regional encourages women to stay current with recommended screenings and speak with their healthcare provider about their individual breast health needs.
“Expanding access to mammography is an important step in supporting the health of women throughout our region,” said Colquitt County Hospital Authority Chairman John Griffin. “We are pleased to see Colquitt Regional continue investing in services that help our community access preventive care and prioritize their health.”
