Our services for Spanish speakers

The language is different, but the message is the same.

BCRC provides patient navigation services for women receiving treatment at Shivers Breast Clinic at University Medical at Brackenridge Hospital in Austin as well as BCRC Williamson County Offices. Many services are offered for our Spanish speakers.
