About Double Check

When it comes to health – yours and your loved ones’ – the power of knowledge can translate into saved lives. That is why we have teamed up with WGRZ-TV to raise awareness about breast cancer through the “Double Check” empowerment initiative. Our goal is to make sure that all women understand their risk for the disease and the options available to them, and to encourage them to get a second opinion in the face of a breast cancer diagnosis.
