Mammo Express
No referral appointment · No copay to get permission

Book your mammogramyourself.

You do not need permission to look after yourself. In most states you can schedule a screening mammogram directly — no referral visit, no waiting weeks for a slot someone else booked for you.

Pick a location. Pick a time on their calendar. Walk in, walk out — the imaging itself takes minutes.

Free. Takes about a minute. Locations are being added now.

~20minutes at the appointment

The imaging is a few minutes. The waiting was never the exam.

We did not speed up the scan.
We removed everything around it.

The exam was always quick. What took months was getting permission to have it.

The usual way
  • Call for an appointment with a clinician
  • Wait two to six weeks for that appointment
  • Pay a copay to be told yes
  • Wait for the referral to be sent
  • Call the imaging centre
  • Wait again for a slot

This is precision medicine doing what it should — on time, on demand, and built around your day rather than a referral queue.

The question everyone asks first

“Am I actually allowed to do this?”

Yes — for a routine screening mammogram, in most states. Federal law under the Mammography Quality Standards Act lets an FDA-certified facility screen you without a referring clinician. They send your results directly to you. This has been true for years — most people were simply never told.

Some states add their own rule. New York, for instance, requires a written order even for screening. We mark those locations clearly, so you are never sent somewhere expecting to walk in when you cannot.

One important distinction. This is for screening — routine, no symptoms. If you have found a lump, or have pain, discharge or a change in your skin, you need a diagnostic mammogram, and that does need a clinician’s order. Please contact one rather than booking a screening.

How often should you go?

Two respected bodies give two different answers. Both are credible, so here they both are.

U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (2024)

Screening mammography every 2 years for women aged 40 to 74.

This is the recommendation most insurance plans are built around, and it drives no-cost-sharing coverage under the Affordable Care Act.

USPSTF — Breast Cancer: Screening (2024)
American Cancer Society

Optional yearly screening from 40. Yearly from 45 to 54. From 55, every 2 years or continue yearly.

The ACS puts more weight on yearly screening in the years when breast cancer is most often found at a treatable stage.

American Cancer Society — screening recommendations

Family history, a known gene variant, dense breasts or prior chest radiation can all change what is right for you. That is a conversation with a clinician — we will just make sure you can actually get an appointment when you decide to.

The part people forget

We will remind you when you are due again.

The hardest part of screening is not the first appointment. It is remembering the next one, a year or two later, when life is busy and nothing hurts.

When you book through us we set a follow-up reminder for you. You choose the interval, you choose email or text, and you can turn it off in one click at any time.

Set up my reminders
Your consent, your rules
  • We never text you unless you explicitly tick the box
  • Reply STOP to any text and it stops immediately
  • Email reminders are separate and equally optional
  • We never sell or share your contact details
  • We never store anything about your health

It takes a minute now.
