Breast implant illness review

It starts with a General Medicine clinician who makes time for your full history and takes your symptoms seriously. When it'll genuinely help, they bring in a breast implant specialist from our network — typically within 24 business hours — then come back with a plan.

No — your General Medicine clinician is who you work with, and they consult a breast implant specialist for you. You're heard in days, not the months a waitlist can take, by a clinician who already knows your story and stays with you.

You don't need to have that figured out before you book. Your General Medicine clinician reviews your symptoms and history first, and that's exactly what tells them whether a breast implant specialist is the right fit — or whether a different specialist or a different kind of care would serve you better. If it's the latter, they'll point you there instead of moving forward with a review that isn't the right match, so you don't waste a visit going down the wrong path.

Often, yes — reviewing your symptoms, history, and any prior testing is a strong starting point and can happen this way. If explant surgery or further testing is on the table, your clinician will arrange the in-person evaluation that requires. Sudden severe symptoms need prompt in-person care.

Your clinician can give you a specialist-informed assessment and help you understand testing options. A definitive diagnosis tied to implant illness often needs further evaluation, and your clinician will be honest about that — you'll leave with a clear next step, and they stay involved.
