Mammography and Ontario Breast Screening

Show or hide navigation More

Patient Care Banner

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are seeing an increase in booking calls and wait times for the Ontario Breast Screening appointments. Please leave one message on our voicemail and a member of our team will contact you. Due to the high volume of clients requesting appointments, please wait patiently for our team to call you back. We appreciate your patience during this very busy time.

Brockville General Hospital (BGH) has an accredited Digital Mammography Department, offering screening, diagnostic, and Ontario Breast Screening Program (OBSP) appointments. Breast imaging is available at our Charles Street main site.

Breast cancers start small but can be detected through current best practices. Let our team of experienced Technologists and Radiologists guide you through this process.

Screening and Diagnostic Mammograms

Clients requiring a screening or diagnostic mammogram need to contact their primary health care provider. The physician’s office will fax the requisition to the Mammography Booking Office and we will call you to schedule an appointment. 

Ontario Breast Screening Program (OBSP)

The Ontario Breast Screening Program is a self-referral program for women aged 50 to 74 with no breast issues. Clients can call the OBSP department directly at the phone number below. Appointments are available Tuesdays to Fridays.

Preparing for your mammogram

Please review the following guidelines:

  • Do not wear scented products.
  • Do not use body powder, creams, or deodorant on the day of your appointment
  • Please wear a two-piece outfit.

Arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment time to register at the Central Registration Desk. You will need to provide your health card. You will be directed to the Mammography Department after the check-in process is complete. If you are late, your appointment may need to be rescheduled for another date.

Exams are quick and usually take less than 15 minutes to complete.

The mammography exam requires firm compression of your breast. This may be uncomfortable for some. We suggest clients have their mammogram appointments after the start of their monthly menses.

You may require additional imaging after the initial mammogram. If this is required, BGH's Bookings Department will call you to set up an appointment.
