Breast Surgical Oncology
At Presbyterian Breast Care, we help care for people with both non-cancerous (benign) and cancerous (malignant) breast conditions. Whether you need care in the hospital or as an outpatient, our breast surgery team can provide testing and surgery for your unique needs. Our breast surgical oncologists work closely with your full cancer care team to provide treatment for many types of diseases of the breasts. They’re specially trained in advanced techniques, including minimally invasive surgeries like nipple- and skin-sparing mastectomies.

Each week, our team of experts meets to talk about patient cases. These meetings include breast surgeons, cancer doctors, radiation doctors, pathologists, radiologists, and more. We also have a strong support team made up of nurse navigators, social workers, mental health professionals, nutritionists, palliative care experts, physical and occupational therapists, and financial advocates—all working together to support you.
