January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, and it is an important time to pause and talk about prevention, early detection, and taking care of your health.
Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers, yet too many patients delay or skip regular screenings. I understand that life gets busy. Appointments get pushed back, and preventive care can feel less urgent when you are feeling well. But cervical cancer often has no early symptoms, which is why routine screening is so important.
Screenings help catch changes early, before they become serious. When cervical cancer is found early, treatment options are more effective, outcomes are better, and lives are saved. This is one of the reasons we encourage patients not to wait until something feels wrong to seek care.
As someone who works closely with patients, I have seen how powerful early detection can be. I have also seen the relief patients feel when they take that step and prioritize their health. Getting screened is not just a medical appointment. It is an act of self-care and a way to protect your future.
If you are due for a screening or have questions about cervical health, know that you are not alone. Our care teams are here to support you, answer questions, and walk with you through the process. We are committed to making care accessible, respectful, and focused on your well-being.
Make your health a priority this month. Schedule your cervical cancer screening today and take an important step toward protecting your future.
