NASSAU, Bahamas -- Physicians, nurses and other Doctors Hospital associates have 'gone pink' during Breast Cancer Awareness Month as a reminder to all patients and visitors that mammograms can save lives.
All month long, they have traded in their traditional white gloves for pink ones to encourage all the women who come through the hospital to perform monthly breast self-examinations and once they turn 35 to schedule an annual mammogram.
To further encourage women to take proactive measures, until November 4th, Doctors Hospital is offering a 50% discount on all first time mammograms at the hospital's Comprehensive Breast Diagnostic Imaging Center and through December 1st all women in The Bahamas are eligible to enter to win free mammograms for life.
