We post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

From 2003 to 2009 Dr. Comstock was the section chief of breast imaging at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). There he helped to plan and directed the conversion of UCSD’s breast imaging section to the first completely digital program in San Diego. He also developed breast MR biopsy techniques. In 2004 he was awarded a two-year ACRIN fellowship in clinical trials in medical imaging. Past clinical trials include optical breast imaging and ultrasound tomography of the breast.
Dr Comstock is the co-author of a recent textbook on breast cancer imaging. He has written several book chapters, been involved in numerous breast imaging publications, and given more than 150 invited lectures.
