The Greenbrier Clinic—located inside The Greenbrier Resort—has formally notified patients of serious concerns about the quality of mammography services performed over a period spanning more than two years.
According to a letter sent to patients by radiologist Dr. Henry Setliff, the clinic identified potential issues with mammograms conducted between October 28, 2023, and February 26, 2026.
Why This Matters
Mammograms are one of the most important tools in modern medicine for detecting breast cancer early—often years before symptoms appear. Early detection can mean the difference between:
- Less invasive treatment
- Better outcomes
- Higher survival rates
When imaging quality is compromised, the consequences can be serious. Patients may face:
- Missed or delayed cancer diagnoses
- False reassurance from inaccurate results
- Loss of critical time for early intervention
Federal Investigation and Suspension
The issue came to light following a federal investigation. Regulators determined that the clinic failed to meet required imaging standards set by the American College of Radiology and enforced by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
As a result:
- The clinic was required to stop all mammography services as of February 26, 2026
- The facility is currently not performing mammograms
- The clinic must address deficiencies before regaining accreditation
What Patients Are Being Told to Do
Patients who underwent mammography at the clinic during the affected timeframe are being urged to:
- Speak with their primary care physician immediately
- Have prior imaging re-evaluated by a qualified provider
- Consider obtaining a new mammogram at a certified facility
While the clinic stated that prior results are not necessarily incorrect, the uncertainty alone raises significant concern.
Potential Legal Implications
Situations like this may involve issues of medical negligence or failure to meet accepted standards of care.
Healthcare providers have a legal obligation to:
- Maintain proper accreditation
- Follow established imaging protocols
- Ensure diagnostic accuracy
If substandard imaging led to:
- A delayed cancer diagnosis
- A missed diagnosis
- More aggressive treatment than would otherwise have been required
patients may have the right to pursue a claim.
What to Watch For
If you or a loved one had a mammogram at The Greenbrier Clinic during this period, pay close attention to:
- Any recent or new breast symptoms
- Changes in prior imaging findings
- Recommendations from your physician for repeat testing
Do not ignore concerns—time matters in cancer diagnosis.
