How likely are you to recommend Dr. Ekens?
Praise God for his miracles! I was so afraid today when I went in for my Breast Biopsy but I am telling you God showed up! First they switched doctors on me but I had the best doctor I could have had; Dr. Julie. I think that was God’s intervention . I asked to meet the doctor first. While in the room meeting her, there was a knock at the door.They opened the door and no one was there but I can tell you who walked inside there to be with me-my God!!! Next they positioned me on the biopsy table faced down and kept doing diagnostic mammograms. They could not find anything to biopsy. So next they took me to the ultrasound room. They did an ultrasound and finally found a 3 mm spot 2 mm beneath the skin. The doctor went ahead with the biopsy but I had no pain other than just a very small stick to numb the area. When she went to take a piece of the tissue for the biopsy, the entire spot was sucked up in the specimen so I have no spot anymore. Dr. Julie is Great! Highly recommend her!!!
