Same day services

 

For the woman who wants coordinated breast care, we offer same day services. We do this because a woman who is about to have her yearly routine mammogram is typically in a state of high anxiety. If during the mammogram extra views are ordered, or if she receives a letter following the mammogram stating she must return for additional views, the level of stress skyrockets. In many cases, it can take weeks to get the final report.

Fortunately, there is now an alternative that provides answers all on the same visit. Women who participate in our Same Day Program receive a state-of-the-art digital mammogram. The mammogram is read immediately, and when indicated, all extra views and ultrasound are done at the same visit. A final report is issued on that visit. The surgeon then does an examination and reviews the report with the patient. If all is normal, a routine follow-up examination and mammogram is scheduled for the next year. If a problem is identified, an immediate treatment plan is implemented. For more information on our same day service, call us at 714-541-0101.
