Dekalb Medical is setting the standard for excellence in breast care in metropolitan Atlanta with Comprehensive Breast Care, a unique patient-centered approach to rapid diagnosis and treatment of breast problems.

Finding a breast lump or getting the call that your mammogram is abnormal is frightening. Most lumps are not cancer, but for peace of mind, the sooner a person can be evaluated by a medical professional, the better. We can provide a referral to a surgeon immediately when a suspicious mass or lesion is identified. Our goal is to decrease the time between finding a problem (palpable mass or abnormal mammogram) and having a definitive diagnosis. We understand that the key to your satisfaction is knowledge of what your breast problem is so that you can choose from the best treatment options available to you.

At Dekalb Medical, Comprehensive Breast Care means having a Nurse Navigator available to assist you from the time of presentation with a breast problem until the initiation of treatment. The Nurse Navigator is available to answer questions and guide you through the process as quickly as possible, working directly with your primary care physician to assist with referrals and treatment planning.
We follow National Comprehensive Cancer Network diagnostic and treatment guidelines which keep us on the cutting edge of breast cancer care by offering the best options for cure. Our multidisciplinary approach brings together expert radiologists, surgeons, pathologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, clinicians and researchers to determine the most appropriate treatment for your diagnosis.

Comprehensive Breast Care is one more way that Dekalb Medical is pushing beyond.
