"Diagnosed With Breast Cancer? Always Get a Second Opinion, Experts Say"
According to the American Cancer Society, more than 230,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women are diagnosed each year.

"We see patients all the time, they come in with their reports all the time and their diagnosis says breast cancer," Port said.
