While she did not recommend a prophylactic mastectomy, she asked if I had considered it and when I said that I had, she explained very thoroughly what it would entail. I left with a plan, which is to take comfort in the 70% chance that I will never get breast cancer, and that I will be vigilant in my screening, having annual mammogram and breast MRI, which will catch any cancer very early. I would likely want to get a double mastectomy if any cancer was found (my preference and not her recommendation) and now am more knowledgeable about what that would entail. I thought that she was very respectful of my opinions, was not dismissive of my concerns, and was supportive of my plan going forward.Show less
	September 2025 Dr. Stephen's words and demeanor put me at ease right away. She was forthright with my diagnosis and explained options of treatment. I knew I had chosen the right doctor for me.
	August 2025 Dr. Stephen's was very down to earth, knowledgeable, and patient with my questions and concerns. So glad I was sent to her!
