Breast Health

Your breasts can change throughout your life, and many of those changes are normal. Getting to know how your breasts usually look and feel can help you notice changes early and feel more confident about your health.

Most breast changes are not a cause for concern, but some should be checked by a healthcare provider. If something looks or feels different, it’s always best to reach out. Early evaluation can provide peace of mind and help you take the next step with confidence.

Whether you have questions, notice a change, or are due for a screening, the Hawaiʻi Pacific Health Women’s Centers are here to support you with compassionate care, helpful guidance, and preventive screenings at every stage of life.

Early detection with annual mammogram screenings is the best defense against breast cancer.

Our Women's Centers and clinic locations provide state-of-the-art digital mammography services that help doctors better identify suspicious tissue and reduce screening times, re-takes, and call-back appointments.

All women carry some risk for breast cancer, but some are at greater risk due to their family history or a previous pre-cancer diagnosis.

For women considered at an elevated risk for breast cancer, the High-Risk Breast Program at the Hawaiʻi Pacific Health Women's Centers offers an intensive monitoring plan aimed at identifying problems early, when they are most easily treated.

This program is similar to those found in breast centers across the United States.

The Kapiʻolani Women's Center is home to the state's first comprehensive program dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer.

Our beautiful, state-of-the-art center provides Hawaiʻi's women with convenient, coordinated healthcare in a warm and supportive environment. Our dedicated team of doctors and specialists delivers the highest level of clinical excellence, while breast health nurses serve as caregivers for our patients, guiding women through diagnostic tests and treatments when necessary.

Breast health is an important part of your overall well-being. Whether you are due for a routine screening, have noticed a change, or need follow-up care, our team at the Pali Momi Women's Center is here to guide you with compassionate support in a comfortable, caring environment.

We offer advanced imaging and diagnostic testing, including mammograms, ultrasound, and breast MRI, to help you get clear answers and the care that is right for you. Our imaging services have been recognized for excellence by the American College of Radiology. For patients at higher risk for breast cancer, we also offer genetic counseling and testing to help you understand your risk and make informed decisions about your care.
