Breast cancer survival rising with education and access to care
Since 1989 mortality from breast cancer has declined and five year survival rose from 75 percent in the 1970s to about 90 percent now. Experts credit awareness, screening, and easier access to care at Baytown facilities including Altus, Houston Methodist San Jacinto Hospital, and Woman's Clinic of Baytown. Community events like Relay for Life and Pink Heals involve survivors, while treatments include breast conservation surgery, mastectomy, radiation, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy. Houston Methodist offers prevention and early detection through a accredited women's center with advanced imaging and a screening program for uninsured patients.
