Pet Pals

The Breen Breast Center is very fortunate to have two canine assistants. The dogs are raised by expert trainers through a non-profit organization, Canine Assistants in Milton Georgia. Handlers are hand-picked at University Hospitals and sent to the canine assistant facility to be trained to work in the hospital setting with the dogs.

Our mission is to work with these highly trained canine assistants to improve the patient experience in our breast centers and to enhance our work environment. Our dogs work in Radiology or Surgical Oncology to provide goodwill and love to all who are undergoing the stress of something as simple as a mammogram or as complex as a cancer diagnosis.
