Barton offers free mammograms

Barton Health received more than $20,000 from the Susan G. Komen for The Cure Foundation to pay for screening and diagnostic mammograms for uninsured or underinsured women and men in South Lake Tahoe, and Douglas and Alpine counties.

Apply for the free mammograms at the Barton Community Clinic on South Avenue across from the hospital’s main entrance in South Lake Tahoe

During the past 10 years, the Komen Foundation’s Northern Nevada affiliate has granted more than $2 million to local programs, including more than $87,000 to Barton’s Community Clinic in the last three years.
