The App That Holds Your Hand During a Mammogram

MyWaitingRoom App

We use apps for depositing checks. Booking travel. Grocery shopping. Even unlocking our car.

But until now there was no app to walk women through one of the most important things they can do in their lives: get a mammogram.

Welcome to our  “MyWaitingRoom” app, designed to guide you through every step of the mammogram experience, from making the appointment to getting the exam to receiving the results.

We developed this app knowing that women are often anxious or even scared about getting a mammogram – and so they often skip.[i] But skipping, as you probably know, means potentially missing early cancers when they are most treatable. It could mean your life.

So download our app from the Apple app or Google Play store or click on the link from your desktop and follow our avatar as she makes – and keeps – her mammogram appointment.
