TEPAS Breast Center is proud to offer Central Florida a comprehensive breast screening and diagnostic center that focuses on breast health before, during, and after a cancer diagnosis.
One in eight women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Although breast cancer is very treatable, the best approach is early detection. We encourage you to perform monthly self-examinations, undergo routine annual mammograms, and see your primary care doctor regularly.
“When faced with a cancer diagnosis, many people feel helpless. We believe healthcare should restore hope every step of the way,” states physician Dr. Emran Imami, MD FACS, Board Certified General and Breast Surgeon.
At TEPAS Breast Center, you will experience compassionate service in a warm setting, quick responses to results, access to leading-edge technologies and procedures, and a multitude of informational and supportive resources.
TEPAS Breast Center donates space to the American Cancer Society (www.cancer.org), to offer one of Brevard County’s only Resource Centers. Trained volunteers assist those battling cancer by providing wigs, turbans, scarves, prosthetics, bras, and helpful information.
Also at TEPAS, a certified breast prosthetics fitter from Heart Strings (www.heartstringsshop.com) offers the option to purchase retail items including breast forms, lingerie, and swim wear.
Because mental health is an essential part of cancer treatment and recovery, TEPAS offers an on-site psychologist Rachel LeFebvre, Ph.D. for counseling and support (www.girlfriendshealth.com).
Also at TEPAS, the Breast Friends of Florida (http://www.breastfriends.com/affiliates/florida/), a group of cancer survivors, offers resources that assist friends and family members in efforts to encourage and strengthen each other and loved ones
