Why choose to get your treatment here?
Our goal is to provide women w ith the most thorough, accurate and prompt evaluation possible. We are committed to delivering state-of-the-art treatment in a patient-centered environment for both benign and cancerous breast problems. The core of our center is a team of 25 breast disease experts. We work together, pooling the resources of each specialty. One telephone call to the Breast Care Center sets into motion all of the appointments, tests and consultations a woman needs. A woman diagnosed with breast cancer may talk with surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, plastic surgeons, gynecologists, social workers, nurses and have their mammograms and pathology slides read all in one day at one visit.

The Breast Cancer Tumor Board assembles physicians, surgeons, oncologists and others to discuss and make recommendations for current casesFor those women who need treatment for breast cancer, we offer the most comprehensive, effective and least invasive treatment methods. Our philosophy is breast preservation, through lumpectomy and radiation therapy, when possible. We also offer immediate reconstruction using the patient's own tissues. We're sensitive to the anxiety women with breast cancer experience, so counseling and emotional support are integral parts of the Breast Care Center. Our support programs include breast cancer education and support groups, peer counseling, a reconstruction forum, the MedSport Health Enhancement Program, and breast self-examination instruction.
