A FREE GUIDE · DR ALEX POPADICH

Your breast biopsy report, line by line

Almost every patient who reads a core biopsy report tells me the same thing: it might as well be written in Russian. This free 9-page guide walks you through yours the way I would in clinic — what each line means, what it can't tell you yet, and what to ask next.

Read it with your own report beside you.

What's inside

  • What your report can tell you now, and what it can't yet
  • Grade and stage, and why they aren't the same thing
  • ER, PR, HER2 and Ki-67 in plain English
  • Why there's nothing about margins or lymph nodes yet
  • What can change after surgery, and what happens if it does
  • Three questions to ask at your next appointment

You'll also get The Consult, my monthly email on breast cancer and menopause. Unsubscribe any time.
