Mercy Breast Center - Coletta

Oklahoma City Breast Center

Located on the campus of Mercy Hospital Oklahoma City, Mercy Breast Center - Coletta in Oklahoma City, OK was the first facility in the state to acquire digital mammography and the first to incorporate breast MRI into routine, clinical practice, and now we are offering 3D mammography with low dose radiation.

Our dedicated breast surgeons, and detection tests, treatment and prevention programs, that make Mercy Breast Center - Coletta so effective in fighting breast cancer.

Mercy Breast Center -  Coletta features the latest in cancer detection and treatment:

Whole breast ultrasound – An estimated two out of every five women have dense breast tissue, making it more difficult to detect cancer using mammography alone. We use the most advanced 3D ultrasound technology that can find small cancers mammography may miss.

Precise cancer treatments – The most advanced linear accelerator will apply customized, high-energy radiation to shrink and kill cancerous tumors. The result is effective treatment of a broad range of cancers in short sessions. Treatments that might take 10 minutes elsewhere can be completed in a few minutes and can greatly minimize the total number of treatments needed.

Advanced Research Hub – With a robust clinical trials program that allows patients easy and convenient access to new and unprecedented cancer treatments our physicians are committed to ongoing research and innovation.

Our Breast Center is one component of Mercy's comprehensive women's services that includes:

Project Early Detection

If a woman detects breast cancer while it’s still half an inch or less in size, her chance of survival can be more than 90%. However, tumors this size can’t be felt, making mammograms vital for early detection.

Unfortunately, for many uninsured and underinsured women, an annual mammogram is simply out of reach. But thanks to a program called Project Early Detection, more and more women are receiving the mammograms and related diagnostic procedures they need.

Project Early Detection provides breast health services for women who are uninsured and underinsured. This includes breast health screenings, diagnostic procedures, appropriate treatment referral and education. The success of this program is due to the partnerships and collaborations of local radiologists, physicians, free clinics, Susan G. Komen Central and Western Oklahoma and Mercy.
