Step One Subaru Fort Walton Beach is partnering with HerScan to provide mobile breast ultrasound screenings on July 11.

• The event, scheduled from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., aims to offer women fast, affordable, and convenient breast cancer screenings. It will take place at the Step One Subaru dealership located at 916 Beal Parkway, Fort Walton Beach.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women, and early detection is crucial for effective treatment. Unlike traditional mammograms, ultrasounds can detect cancer in women with dense breast tissue and do not use radiation.

The screenings provided by HerScan are designed to be a safe and painless alternative to mammograms. The company’s mission is to make advanced breast ultrasound screenings more accessible.

• Appointments are required for the screenings and can be made online through HerScan’s registration website. The dealership encourages all women to take advantage of this opportunity.

“Step One Subaru Fort Walton Beach is committed to the health and well-being of our community,” the company said in a press release. “By partnering with HerScan, we aim to provide a crucial service that could save lives. We look forward to seeing you on July 11 and supporting our community’s health together.”
