Discovering a mass in your patient is one of the most trying moments in a physician’s career, and often these superficial masses cannot be diagnosed by a physical exam or imaging studies alone. Dr. Celina Nadelman offers a quick, relatively painless and cost-effective solution by offering outpatient fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies in a compassionate yet professional setting. In addition, she can give a preliminary diagnosis within 24 hours, thus allowing you to assuage your patient’s anxiety and fears. Dr. Nadelman guarantees superior diagnostic results by immediately evaluating the thyroid or breast biopsy material as the patient waits!
