VALDOSTA, Ga. (WTXL)--South Georgia Medical Center is working to fight cervical cancer by offering free screenings.

The screenings start January 15 from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Pearlman Cancer Center for women 21-65 years of age who have not had a pap smear in the last three years.

It's also for those who have not had a hysterectomy. 

SGMC says in the United States last year, 12,000 new cases of invasive cervical cancer were diagnosed. 

 If you are interested in those screenings, you have to register first by calling (229) 433-1074.
