Our oncology team has deep experience diagnosing cervical cancer. We offer the latest testing options, including Pap tests, biopsies, and the loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) to make a rapid diagnosis. We also offer cutting-edge screening programs for cervical cancer by testing for the human papillomavirus (HPV), which causes cervical cancer.
