4 Reasons Why Ask DoctorBase™ is the Most Efficient Way to SEO and Establish Your Brand Online

  1. Ask DoctorBase™ is a free service for patients on the DoctorBase platform - currently servicing over 6 million American patients of record.
  2. All answers submitted by healthcare professionals (you) are for entertainment purposes only and do not constitute doctor-patient relationships. All patients must agree to this before using Ask DoctorBase™.
  3. Our software and our Marketing Engineering staff review each answer and optimize your answers for keywords valuable to your specialty. It is a well kept secret that doctors (you) - not SEO consultants - are the ones who have the most valuable content prized by search engines. Ask DoctorBase™ "unlocks and optimizes" your content in the most efficient manner possible with today's technology.
  4. Finally, the doctor who provides the most popular answer - "the Featured Answer," gets an added benefit by allowing patients to write rave reviews about your expertise - reviews that are submitted to both Google and Google Local through our Preferred Data Provider relationship.

Ask Dr. Molly if you have questions or want a personal session on how to best use Ask DoctorBase™ for maximum marketing impact.

I am 28 years old. I have lump in my right breast which keeps increasing and decreasing in numbers. The main one is 2.3 cms in size. It was diagnosed via ultrasound and surgeons as fibroadenoma. It is there for the last 5 , 6 years. No other tests except u/s is done for it.

It doesnt give any problem except anxiety that it may become something sinister. Doctor suggested that if i am anxious than i should get it removed under GA and she doesnt want to do it under local anaesthesia.i am really really worried.please help me to decide whether i really need it to be removed or not.

Find low drug prices at local & online pharmacies

I would have it removed due to the anxiety it is causing you. Additionally if I had a solid breast mass I would want it removed.

You are lucky that it has not increased in size. The only way to know 100% if it is negative is to have it removed. If it gets larger and then has to be excised it can really distort that breast. Get a good breast surgeon. All the best.

You need to find the top breast surgeon in your town and seek an opinion. Gynecologists are no longer trained in breast surgery.
