What to Expect

At your first visit, you’ll meet with the surgeon to discuss your health history and symptoms and undergo a physical exam with clear next steps by the end of your visit. Depending on your condition, we may order additional testing to help guide your care. This may include

• Ultrasound: Uses sound waves to evaluate a breast lump or area of concern.
• Mammogram: An X-ray of the breast used to detect changes or abnormalities.
• Breast MRI: Uses magnetic imaging to provide a detailed view of breast tissue, often used alongside mammography.

Kettering Health does not require a referral, but insurance requirements vary, so check with your insurance company before scheduling.
