A new program for women’s health care is available at Hannibal Regional Medical Group and Hannibal Regional Hospital.
The Women of Wellness program is an integrated approach for a woman to receive her annual health care services in one brief appointment that will last about an hour. During that one-hour appointment, a woman may receive a mammogram, bone density test, gynecological exam and a pap test.
This one-stop service will be offered between 7 am and 3:30 pm by appointment on Thursdays.
Hannibal Regional Hospital utilizes digital mammography with computer aided detection to provide the most accurate screening and diagnosis of breast disease. Bone density is checked with a DEXA scan (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry.) This painless, quick procedure is used to screen for osteoporosis.
The gynecological exam and Pap test will be performed by Andrea Hawkins, MSN, BSN, FNP-C, nurse practitioner with Hannibal Regional Medical Group.
