Mammo Mondays
Take control of breast and bone health
Recognizing the importance of early detection, Centegra Health System continues to sponsor Mammo Monday events throughout McHenry County during the month of March and April.
Women are encouraged to attend a Mammo Monday event on their own or bring their daughters, sisters and friends to a special, private setting to take control of their breast and bone health.
Offerings include screening mammograms, bone density screenings, free expert bra fittings and light snacks.
Mammo Mondays are also part of Centegra’s new add-a-pearl program. Women who participate in select health and wellness programs will be rewarded with a genuine cultured freshwater pearl from Dalzell Jewelers and Centegra Health System to begin building a keepsake necklace. Women can go online to centegra.org/pearl to sign up for the program and see a complete list of qualifying health and wellness services.
Upcoming Mammo Mondays will be offered at the following locations and times:
8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday, April 11 at Centegra Hospital-McHenry

Centegra also provides mammograms in a relaxing atmosphere with the latest state-of-the-art digital mammography, a MammoPad for extra physical comfort and caring Associates dedicated to making every mammogram experience focused on each individual.

Centegra is committed to maintaining the health and wellness of women in the community and celebrates the commitment women make to breast health.
Quick 30-minute appointments are easy to schedule and are recommended. Walk-ins are welcome at Centegra Health Center–Huntley and Centegra Gavers Breast Center–Crystal Lake.
