Legislative District 10

Posted on: September 21, 2023

[ARCHIVED] The NuHealth/NUMC Mobile Mammography Van is Coming to the 10th Legislative District

 THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2023 • 8:00 AM to 10:30 AM •

Clinton G. Martin Park – New Hyde Park Rd. & Marcus Ave., NHP

Nassau County Legislator Mazi Melesa Pilip and Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jennifer S. DeSena are sponsoring the NuHealth/Nassau University Medical Center Mobile Mammography Van to visit our neighborhood to provide breast cancer screenings for women over age forty. The screening will include a breast examination by a nurse, a mammography and instructions for breast self-examination at home.

If it’s been at least a year since your last mammography and you are planning to receive an exam, patients with insurance must bring a referral/prescription for the exam from their doctor (If you do not bring a referral/prescription, you cannot be seen). Patients must also provide any past exam films if they are available. Women with health insurance will be required to make a co-payment.  The mammography is free for uninsured women, based on eligibility guidelines.

Appointments are required and are scheduled  on a First Come, First Served Basis

For additional information or to make an appointment, please contact Legislator Pilip’s office:
