October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Don’t Ignore Your Own Health

Dr. Lisa Paulis reminds women not to ignore their own health while busy taking care of others. Preventative cancer screenings are important. Early detection is key.

Dr. Paulis talks with Channel 13 WHAM Rochester:

“I would say that women are natural caregivers, and they tend to take care of everybody around them and prioritize their own health last, and we would not recommend that,” said Dr. Lisa Paulis, a radiologist at Elizabeth Wende. “Having mammograms and taking care of yourself is really taking care of your family. Talking to your doctor about the appropriate time to screen, based on your risk, is a conversation everyone should be having with their primary care physician.”

I’m always so nervous for my annual mammogram appointment. I went to the Greece location and immediately the receptionist, Amanda, put me at ease with her caring demeanor. Then the technician who performed my mammogram, Renee, was equally professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Both women are an asset to this office and should be commended!

I was concerned about some pain near my breast bone in the left side of my chest. I called a month before my annual mammogram appointment. They rescheduled my appointment ASAP. I had the mammogram and an ultrasound of both breasts. They confirmed that nothing was wrong. That was a huge relief! I am so thankful that we have Elizabeth Wende Breast Care and all its services in the Rochester , NY area!

I have been a patient at EWBC in Greece since 2016 when I had my 1st mammogram. I now go annually for both a mammogram and ultrasound. I wouldn't trust anyone else! They are very professional and make you feel comfortable the second you walk in the door. You can feel confident in their expertise as the only images they read and review all day, every day are of breasts. Making them the #1 specialists in breast care imaging. And I get my results before I even leave the office! Highly recommend!
