Since 2005, the CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Mobile Mammography Unit (MMU) has delivered more than 39,000 mammograms—bringing early breast cancer detection to women across Bexar, Comal, and surrounding Texas counties, no matter their financial means or location.
Each year, the MMU visits nearly 200 community sites, focusing on underserved areas through partnerships with Hill Country Mission for Health, YWCA San Antonio, WellMed, and the Madonna Center.
Thanks to donor generosity, a new 3D mammography-equipped MMU launched in January 2023, improving accuracy and saving more lives. With a focus on uninsured, minority, and rural women, the MMU is reducing breast cancer morbidity and mortality through early detection, education, and compassionate support.
