January is Cervical Health Awareness Month so we’re partnering with the lovely folks at C.W. Wiebe Medical Centre to help folks access respectful and affirming cervical cancer screening.
Who should have a Pap Test?
- Anyone between the age of 21 and 69 with a cervix
- You are or have been sexually active (including same-gender partners)
- It has been 3+ years since your last screening
Pre-register by calling 204-331-2344 or just walk-in!
All Pap tests will be done by a woman provider.
Please note that while Pembina Valley Pride was involved in planning this event, it is open to all individuals who need a Pap test, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
