Our latest media piece about Pap exams on Shaw’s “The Daily”
As a follow-up to the awesome Pap Awareness Week that ended this past Sunday, we were asked to do an information interview for Shaw’s The Daily on the importance of Pap exams for those people with a cervix. You will see our community education coordinator, Jennifer Gibson, and the awesome Tara Paterson chat about pap exams.
Pap exams begin approx. 3 years after sexual intercourse (that includes sexual touching) or at the age of 21 whichever comes first.
