Primary Care
Special Considerations for Agricultural Workers:
Working in agricultural fields exposes individuals to various environmental factors that may increase the risk of certain cancers, such as skin cancer (due to prolonged sun exposure), lung cancer (due to exposure to pesticides and other chemicals), and bladder cancer (due to exposure to certain pesticides). Our healthcare professionals are trained to recognize the unique risks faced by agricultural workers and can provide personalized recommendations for cancer screenings and preventive measures.

Cancer Screenings
Early Detection Saves Lives
​
At Ocean Breeze Multi-Specialty Clinic, we understand the critical importance of cancer screenings in detecting cancer at its earliest, most treatable stages. Our comprehensive cancer screening program is designed to help our patients take proactive steps towards their health by identifying potential cancer risks and detecting cancer early when treatment is most effective.
Why Cancer Screenings Matter:
Cancer screenings are vital for detecting cancer in its earliest stages, often before symptoms appear. Early detection allows for timely intervention and increases the chances of successful treatment and improved outcomes. Regular cancer screenings can help save lives by identifying cancer early when it is most treatable and curable.
Our Cancer Screening Services:
Breast Cancer Screening (Mammography): We offer mammograms, the gold standard in breast cancer screening, to detect breast cancer in its early stages. Regular mammograms are recommended for women starting at age 40 or earlier based on individual risk factors.
Cervical Cancer Screening (Pap Smear): Our clinic provides Pap smears to screen for cervical cancer and detect abnormal changes in cervical cells that may indicate the presence of cancer or precancerous conditions. Regular Pap smears are essential for women starting at age 21.
Colorectal Cancer Screening: We offer various colorectal cancer screening tests, including fecal occult blood tests (FOBT), fecal immunochemical tests (FIT), and colonoscopies, to detect colorectal cancer and precancerous polyps. Screening for colorectal cancer typically begins at age 45 for average-risk individuals.
Prostate Cancer Screening: Our clinic offers prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests and digital rectal exams (DRE) to screen for prostate cancer in men. Prostate cancer screening discussions should start at age 50 for average-risk individuals, although earlier screening may be recommended for certain high-risk groups.
