    Female Breast Surgeon
    She was warm and caring, did the biopsy (was going to do a lumpectomy) but woke me halfway through and suggested a masectomy, the tumor was outside her initial margin. So one week later it was a masectomy and I trusted her judgement all the way through!

    general, primary breast
    did not like first surgeon. Over holidays so difficult. Nurse who coordinates breast treatment found this doctor after I told her I liked the first one 20 years ago (not canser) Went for a second oppinion after could not have radiation I wanted. Female doctor made remark that I was so big would not miss more being removed. Went back to first surgeon for second to make margins bigger. Just found out that another hospital 50 miles away has just gotten the equipment to do one dose of radiation during surgery.
