Women should receive annual mammograms starting at age 40, even if they have no symptoms or family history of breast cancer.

- 3-D Mammography conveniently provided on-site
- Appointment is only 15 minutes

Watch Out for Holiday Season Gift Card Scams
Holiday season is peak time for hackers to run gift card scams. In a gift card scam, a hacker will use the name of a trusted co-worker, usually someone in a leadership position, to request the urgent purchase of gift cards. Once the cards are purchased, the hacker will ask for the 3 digit security number on the back of the card. If the gift card is digital, all the hacker needs is an email.
The safest way to alert the IT Help Desk to a potentially malicious email is to log in to BOSSDesk and click the Report Possible Malicious Email link.
Once you report the email including the subject line and the date/time received, you can delete the suspicious email from your Outlook inbox immediately. With just a few pieces of information, Roswell IT can locate, isolate and test the email in a separate environment not connected to the City's Outlook domain.
