Dr. Chuang Performs the Following:

Breast Biopsy
Breast Cancer Surgery
BRCA Genetic Testing

Breast Biopsy

Breast Biopsy

A breast biopsy removes tissue from a suspicious breast lesion—identified through mammography, ultrasound, or clinical exam—for precise pathological analysis. Techniques include fine-needle aspiration, core-needle biopsy, vacuum-assisted biopsy, or surgical excision, using imaging guidance to ensure accuracy. This targeted sampling is essential for diagnosing cancer and guiding treatment strategies.

Breast Cancer Surgery

Breast Cancer Surgery

Breast cancer surgery includes lumpectomy or mastectomy, sometimes combined with lymph node evaluation. These procedures are the cornerstone of early-stage treatment, offering effective removal of cancer while prioritizing patient outcomes and cosmetic considerations. Surgery is often complemented by systemic or radiation therapy as part of comprehensive cancer care.

BRCA Genetic Testing

BRCA Genetic Testing

BRCA genetic testing uncovers inherited mutations that significantly increase breast and ovarian cancer risk. The Premier Surgical Network offers expert counseling, testing, and interpretation to help patients understand their risk. Results support informed decisions about enhanced surveillance, medication, or risk-reducing surgeries like prophylactic mastectomy.
