There’s only one way to determine your personal risk for breast cancer: Visit a breast doctor.
At Montclair Breast Center, our team of breast experts specialize in proactive healthcare for high-risk women. We offer state-of-the-art diagnostics and prevention strategies.

Our program helps people understand, reduce and manage their risk of developing breast cancer. We want what you want: to prevent breast cancer.

Together, we’re playing offense against breast cancer.
Your Appointment
At your first appointment, one of our specialists will meet with you directly. Together, we will review your personal and family history, lifestyle and possible risk factors. You will receive a comprehensive physical exam and in most cases, a 3D mammogram. We may suggest genetic testing if you have a hereditary predisposition to breast cancer.
Based on the results of the initial assessment, additional testing (such as an MRI or Ultrasound) may be recommended and completed during your appointment. Upon the conclusion of your appointment, you will receive an individualized plan for risk management.
