Amid Advances, Patient Care Remains The Breast Center’s Cornerstone

For Stacy Smith-Foley, M.D., and the specialists at The Breast Center at CARTI, their roles extend well beyond the titles on their name badges and white lab coats. They are trusted confidantes, expert medical guides, and, in difficult moments, shoulders that patients and families can lean on for support.

As Dr. Smith-Foley recently shared with The Skeleton Crew, The Breast Center at CARTI is often recognized as an “early adopter” of leading-edge technologies, from 3D mammography to artificial intelligence for automatic breast density assessments. Its team continually harnesses advances for more efficient and effective imaging, diagnostics and surgeries—all to improve patient outcomes.

However, Dr. Smith-Foley is quick to note that The Breast Center considers these innovations as additional “tools in the toolbox.” These technologies allow providers to focus on what they do best: caring for patients through open communication, approachable education and, as needed, comprehensive support services, now available through The Bridge.

Whether women need a screening mammogram or treatment for their breast cancer journeys, they know to ask for the trusted experts at The Breast Center at CARTI. If you have questions or want to schedule an appointment with Dr. Smith-Foley or another provider, please call 501-537-MAMO or 833-323-MAMO.
