Breast Center: About Our Physicians

“Dr. Friedman is a competent, caring individual. His staff is always courteous and very informative.” -- Faith Robinson, breast cancer survivor

The Hoffberger Breast Center at Mercy is unique because our physicians, nurses and staff are dedicated to diseases of the breast. They do not perform other types of surgery or practice medicine in other fields. This specialization means that our staff offers patients unparalleled knowledge and expertise in the field of breast disease.

Hoffberger Breast Center doctors collaborate closely with other physicians and staff within the hospital who provide complementary or ancillary services to Hoffberger Breast Center patients. These include pathologists, oncologists, plastic surgeons, anesthesiologists, physical therapists, nurses, and many others.

The specialization of Hoffberger Breast Center doctors, combined with the outstanding resources of Mercy Medical Center, ensures that patients get compassionate and personalized care on the leading edge of medical technology and research.
