A breast abnormality on an exam or mammogram raises many emotions and concerns. If a lump or abnormality has been detected, your specialist may recommend a biopsy. While this thought may be frightening, the results can provide reassuring peace of mind. USA surgeons perform the latest minimally invasive breast biopsies, in the comfort of our office, using stereotactic and ultrasound guidance.

Everyone here is very kind and friendly. My surgeon, Dr. Charles Joel's is an amazing surgeon. I consider Dr. Joel's to be the best vascular surgeon in Chattanooga. He takes his time with you and explains very thoroughly to you any question that you may have for him. I am extremely satisfied with Dr. Joel's and will continue to see him for any other problems that may surface in the future. I highly recommend him to anyone who may be having any vascular issues.
