Nevada Health Centers’ Mammovan to make stops in Carson City, Virginia City and Reno
Nevada Health Centers’ mobile Mammovan will make several northern Nevada appearances in September, including stops in Carson City, Virginia City and Reno.
The Mammovan mission is to provide access to quality healthcare throughout Nevada. The Mammovan makes mammography services accessible and convenient for women by bringing services to them, right in their neighborhoods with the belief that the best protection is still early detection.
These screenings are primarily for women age 40 and older; however, screenings will be provided to those younger than 40 that have a physician referral.
The Mammovan will be making stops in northern Nevada during the next few weeks. Women wanting to take advantage of this valuable service should call 1.877.581.6266 to make an appointment for one of the following dates:

Nevada Health Centers operates the Mammovan, a mobile mammography van that provides convenient access to mammography services to women. The Mammovan began operations in 2000, and was initially made possible by a grant secured by former Congressman John Ensign and former First Lady of Nevada, Dema Guinn.
