  • Alaska’s Leading Breast and Women’s Imaging Team

  • Dr. Heather Tauschek, Dr. Elaine Pigman and Dr. Brittnay O'Steen with specialty training in breast and women’s imaging, oversee the largest dedicated women’s imaging team in the state. Alongside incredible nurse practitioners, physician assistants, skilled technologists, and sonographers, they pay attention to every detail of a patient’s experience. Women’s Imaging runs the gamut from pelvic pain workup to infertility evaluation and breast cancer early detection and diagnosis. Our local Alaskan imaging team takes care of patients, from age 16 to 100+ years of age, with expertise, compassion, and kindness.
