Breast Cancer Screening and Education
The best way to fight breast cancer is early detection.
At San Ysidro Health, you can schedule an in-person appointment for a clinical breast exam. Telehealth appointments are also available for patients for breast health education, mammogram referrals, and other support services. You may qualify for free early detection and cancer screenings.
Perinatology
Perinatology, also known as maternal-fetal medicine, offers prenatal consultation and treatment by a perinatologist for women with complicated, high-risk pregnancies, which may sometimes include ultrasonography services. We provide comprehensive ultrasounds via appointments and through referrals made by our OB/GYN providers managing patients’ prenatal care.
This service is completed at Maternal Child Health Center and can be coordinated through a referral from a primary care provider.
We are taking extra precautions and following current guidelines provided by federal/state/local health officials. All COVID-19 organizational protocols will be followed including: social distancing, temperature checks, wearing masks and exam rooms are thoroughly cleaned.
