More than 13,000 women in the United States are diagnosed with cervical cancer each year, however, it is one of the most preventable types of cancer. About 99% of cervical cancers are caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV). The key to prevention involves regular screenings, HPV vaccination, and early treatment. At CHDC, our OB/GYN team is dedicated to helping women stay proactive about their cervical health. During Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, be sure to stay on top of regular screenings.

This month encourages everyone to take proactive steps in understanding, preventing, and managing glaucoma through regular comprehensive eye exams.
