The Mobile Cancer Screening Coach brings breast, cervical and colon cancer screening programs to residents who experience barriers to screening.

Anyone who is unable to access screening elsewhere, such as their family doctor’s office, can come to the Mobile Coach. All that is needed is a health card or Interim Federal Health Benefits. To book an appointment, call 905-975-4467 or toll-free at 1-855-338-3131 to speak with the receptionist or leave a message and we will return your call.

The Mobile Coach features a state-of-the-art digital mammography suite, private exam room and sitting area. For the schedule click here. Please note that the Mobile Coach has a wheelchair lift for anyone who is not able to use stairs, however some mobility is needed once on the Coach to access the screening rooms, as the rooms are not large enough for some wheelchairs. Please call the Mobile Coach and ask to speak to a nurse to assess your specific needs.
