Changing Doctors for Followup: Who do I see?

My regular family physician always ordered my mammograms before I had cancer. I would imagine your family physician could examine you and order the diagnostic mammogram. Also some hospitals have "high risk breast clinics" that read the mammograms as soon as you get one versus waiting and can do ultrasounds etc if needed on the same day.

@frogjumper thank you I had a double mastectomy so no mammograms for me anymore. My pc doc retired 8 months ago and I have yet to replace her but need to. I think I’ll start with an appointment at the OB/GYN.
