Experiences

Meet Julie...
Julie is 58 years old. She enjoys gardening, swimming, and keeping up with her family. She is thrilled to be a grandmother. She is about to face one of the greatest challenges of her life: Breast Cancer. Fortunately, her doctor referred her to Boise Breast Consultants. From the first phone call, Julie knew she had found the help she needed. Her situation seemed a little more manageable after she reviewed her educational packet and spent some time on the Internet. (OK, her grandson helped with the Internet.) She had some additional tests, arranged by the clinic staff, and then brought her daughters along for the initial consultation with Dr. Wolf. A little more than an hour later, she left the clinic to begin her treatment journey in confidence. The journey still lay ahead, of course, but Julie could begin to see the light at the other end.

Meet Gretchen...
Gretchen is 32 years old, an athlete, a mother, and a hard-working executive. She was horrified to discover a lump in her breast. The careful balance of her busy life seemed to teeter on the brink of disaster, and her thoughts were drawn, inevitably, to her mother’s struggle with breast cancer at about the same age. A friend recommended Boise Breast Consultants. The helpful staff seemed to understand the urgency of her need. They sent her for a mammogram right away, followed by a consultation appointment with Dr. Wolf. It all happened so quickly, Gretchen had to re-schedule her own clients to make room!! It was all worthwhile, because everything turned out well. The lump was only a benign cyst - not cancer - that resolved with a simple procedure at her initial appointment. Moreover, Gretchen left her appointment with a much better sense of her own breast cancer risk, which proved not to be so high as she had always assumed.
