FAQ - Breast Surgery

If I need a biopsy, can it be done
in the office?
Many biopsies can be done in the
office, including those done for palpable lesions (those that can be
felt) and those done with Ultrasound Guidance. Open Surgical Biopsies
and Stereotactic Core Biopsies are done in the hospital on a Same Day
Surgery/Ambulatory basis.
How long does it take to get my
biopsy results?
Most biopsy results are available
in 24-48 hours unless your Insurance/HMO requires the specimen to be
sent to an outside participating lab. The doctor will call you as soon
as the results are available.

Montclair Surgical Assoc. is a
group practice. Will the same doctor follow me throughout my treatment?
Absolutely! Continuity of care
and personal attention is first and foremost in our practice. However,
on occasions when your doctor is not available, any one of the
partners will see you in his/her stead.
If I need reconstruction, do
the doctors at MSA perform this?
If reconstruction is necessary,
the doctors work as a team with Board-Certified Plastic Surgeons who
have extensive training and experience in breast surgery.
