Hello all,

I just got diagnosed on Friday, December 9th with invasive ductal carcinoma grade 1. My tumor is .8cm. I was told about my biopsy results from my primary care physician. She recommended that I go see Dr. Helena Chang at the UCLA Revlon Breast Center. I tried to call several times on Friday to make an appointment, but no one answers the phone, you can only leave a message.

I've been researching breast surgeons in Los Angeles, I also found Dr. Maggie Lee Dimone in Santa Monica, and Dr. Kristi Funk. Dr Dimone only has a few reviews on yelp, but they are all glowing 5 star reviews. Dr. Funk has over 100 reviews, many are very positive, but quite a few are horrifically bad. And Dr. Helena Chang has no reviews at all, but the reviews for the UCLA Revlon center are horrible. (No surprise as they don't even pick up the phone!)

I would like to try and meet with at least 2 or 3 of the very best breast surgeons in LA asap, as I would like to create the best treatment plan possible and schedule surgery. However, the timing is unfortunate with the holidays fast approaching.

To all the women out there in LA, can you please help me with your recommendations? I would be most gratefull!

I have so many more questions as well. This is my first post, is it better for me to list all my questions in one post? Or ask each question in separate posts? Please let me know, I am very new to this community!

Thank you in advance for all of your help! :)
