The 2017 Sapphire Ball benefited the Dr. Gary B. and Pamela S. Williams Center for Breast Health and other key clinical areas of Summa Health. The multidisciplinary center on the Akron Campus and a second center on the Barberton Campus set new standards in streamlined care for breast health services. Both centers are fully accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC), a program administered by the American College of Surgeons.

Staffed to minimize waiting, the Williams Center brings together expert teams of clinical specialists – oncologists, surgeons, radiologists and others. Conference areas facilitate professional collaboration and private consultations. Specially trained nurse navigators help patients understand and follow individualized treatment plans. 

Advanced 2D mammography and 3D tomosynthesis imaging, available at eight convenient locations, are standard throughout the health system. The technology produces clear images of the highest quality, facilitating earlier detection and avoiding false alarms.
