We serve all patients—including those who are medically underserved, regardless of their ability to pay for services. We take great pride in serving our community as a health care provider, employer and community partner.

The breast center boasts seven radiologists/physicians who specialize in mammography and breast imaging and 45 experienced and dedicated clinical and administrative employees. We have a collaborative community model of ownership and management with two owners—Franciscan Health System and MultiCare Health System—and managing partner TRA Medical Imaging. The unique, collaborative partnership received a founding gift from the Gary E. Milgard Family Foundation and is named in honor of Carol Milgard, a long-time Tacoma resident, philanthropist and 30-year breast cancer survivor.
