Individuals from 25 to 69 years old with a cervix can choose to order a kit to self-screen for the human papillomavirus (HPV), the leading cause of cervical cancer. The new cervical screening test is similar to a Pap smear test.
Self screening removes many barriers such as: cultural barriers, history of trauma, the need for transportation

To help us provide safe, timely care to all patients, and in light of the current high patient volume and limited physician availability, the following policy effective immediately:
During a single appointment, physicians will address a maximum of two medical concerns.
This approach allows us to:
· Ensure each concern is assessed thoroughly and safely
· Stay on schedule for other patients waiting for care
· Reduce delays caused by extended visits in an already overburdened system
If you have additional concerns:
· Please book a follow-up appointment
· Urgent issues will always be prioritized at the physician’s discretion
We appreciate your understanding as we continue to provide quality care to as many patients as possible during a time of significant strain on primary care services.
CERVICAL SCREENING
A cervical screening test is a test used to determine if there are abnormal cells in the cervix. If abnormal cells are found steps can be taken to try to prevent them from developing into cervical cancer. Individuals from 25 to 69 years old with a cervix can choose to order a kit to their home to self-screen for the human papillomavirus (HPV), the leading cause of cervical cancer. Self screening removes many barriers such as: cultural, history of trauma, need for transportation, and booking time off work.
