Tri-City Medical Center

It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month! “Screening for breast cancer is one of the most important things a woman can do for her health,” says Jennifer Mayberry, MD, Breast Imaging Director at Tri-City Medical Center. "At Tri-City Medical Center, we use three different types of non-invasive breast imaging tests – mammogram, ultrasound and MRI." "Breast Cancer, if detected early, may mitigate the need for chemotherapy and survival rates are higher." Find out more about Dr. Mayberry and our Edgar & JoAnne Jones Women's Diagnostic Center, where you can schedule your mammogram today at https://bit.ly/4ekyqro

It's National Physician Assistant Week! PAs serve as primary care providers, assist in surgery and practice across a range of specialties - like Orthopedics! Chris Pollington and Ryan Johnson are two of the friendly PAs who serve our patients at Orthopedic Specialists of North County. Chris says he enjoys seeing patients through the diagnosis, treatment and healing process:  "As an avid Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioner, surfer and weight lifter, I know how important being able to participate in these activities is to me, so I’m able to empathize with my patients during the healing process when they’re unable to participate in the activities that bring them joy," says Chris. Ryan says he is passionate about providing care and service for North County: "My mission is always to help patients achieve their goals whether that is reducing chronic pain, recovering after an injury or getting back to sports or hobbies. I want patients who I see to feel comfortable, heard and know I have their best interests in mind," says Ryan. Thank you to all of our PAs at TCMC who go above and beyond - every day! - for our patients. #PAsGoBeyond
