Today we’d like to introduce you to Janice Salmon.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
After a mammogram ruptured my implants I went searching for an exam that would help other women with implants and was lucky to find SureTouch. A breast exam for men and women of all ages, with no radiation and no pain. SureTouch has clinical studies that put it 25% above mammography!!!
OC Breast Wellness has been in business for five years and SureTouch has been FDA cleared for 17 years.
We have thousands of patients who will “never go back”. My mission is to change the future of breast exams if it the last “d–n” thing I do!
Has it been a smooth road?
Heck no!
Going up against the 800-pound gorilla – mammography is not easy. Finally, last year we received our CPT code from the AMA for billing which is a critical point in proving our commitment to healthcare. Staying under the “radar” is also a key to keeping us alive since mammography is a $600 million dollars cash cow.
As younger women need a breast exam, we are finding more and more ladies refusing the standard radiation exam and doctors finding that giving a patient a SureTouch referral is better than no exam at all! What a horrible way to get patients!
Referrals and networking boosted our start. I met everyone and anyone with breasts to make sure they were educated in their selection of a breast exam
So, as you know, we’re impressed with OC Breast Wellness – tell our readers more, for example what you’re most proud of as a company and what sets you apart from others.
We are the only center in the US that is helping hundreds of women each month. There are other locations but they had no the drive or focus that I had in getting SureTouch off the ground. We have a foundation and provide women who can’t afford an exam – SureTouch. We travel to any location that will have us to do exams at their office, on the beach and in a mobile exam unit. We are determined.
Our RN’s are one of a kind, dedicated to educating the patient, CBE certified if at all possible and sensitive to the fears and concerns of the standard of healthcare.
