I was planning on having a preventative bmx due to family history and genetic testing. I have now been informed it is most likely no longer preventative as my current care provideR overlooked a small mass that looks to be malignant. I have consults scheduled at Vanderbilt with Dr. Perdikis Thursday and UAB next week with Dr. fix. I know nothing about this and no one will really talk to me since I am not a patient yet. Is there anyone that has used either facility that assist me with what to expect. They are both wanting to do a biopsy. I have no idea which one I will choose to do my actual surgery and I don’t want choosing the wrong person for the biopsy and limit my options for bmx and reconstruction. But, I also want the biopsy as soon as possible
