US cancer clinic

Does any one know of a clinic in the US close to the Canadian border (Buffalo, New York, etc) where patients can have a breast and or lymph node biopsy done the same day? Cutch

Many thanks, Paul - this is great information, which I will certainly use!

Many thanks for your response, japdip - yes, my wording is unclear - I meant to say "have an appointment with a doctor who would then authorize a biopsy the same day"

Until a breast biopsy is proven positive for cancer there would be no reason to sample the lymphnodes. Maybe I didn't understand your question .... or did you mean where you could get the results the same day?

Hi there.

I'm not from the US but I found a great website to aid you in your search.  The NCI has a list of these cancer centers which can be sorted out by state, name, or region.  You can find the site here:

http://cancercenters.cancer.gov/cancer_centers/index.html

I hope that the biopsy can be done soon and everything will work out well.

Regards.
