Does a breast cyst always require surgery?

No. Many breast cysts are benign and go away on their own. If a cyst is painful, large, or doesn’t resolve, a surgeon may recommend drainage or removal.

What does a breast surgeon do for asymmetry?

Breast asymmetry is common. A breast surgeon can evaluate whether the difference is normal or related to an underlying mass or condition, and guide next steps if imaging or biopsy is needed.

Can I see a breast surgeon without a cancer diagnosis?

Yes. Breast surgeons treat a wide range of non-cancerous issues including cysts, pain, nipple discharge, and abnormal mammograms. You don’t need a cancer diagnosis to get expert breast care.

Breast Surgery

Breast surgery at BASS Medical Group focuses on the evaluation and treatment of non-cancerous breast conditions, such as cysts, asymmetry, fibroadenomas, and abnormal imaging findings. Our breast surgeons offer diagnostic expertise, minimally invasive biopsies, and surgical management when needed. We prioritize early detection and personalized care in coordination with imaging, pathology, and oncology when necessary. While we collaborate with the Gregory Rhodes MD Cancer Center for cancer care, this specialty focuses on benign and diagnostic breast health—not cosmetic procedures.
