Can health tap doctors write me an order for a 3d mammogram or a breast ultrasound ?

This is the HT public forum where volunteer docs located primarily in the USA answer health questions based on symptoms or data you post.. We do not refill prescriptions, write orders, notes or otherwise treat anyone. Contact your physician for such needs. There are HT docs on the pay site who may offer a virtual consult. www.connect@healthtap.com.

Never a good idea to have random orders by random doctors. Not by just increasing chances of having your care delayed due to poor coordination, but also creating premises for unexplained findings that may result in creating anxiety and further unnecessary tests and procedures. Get established with a primary care doc who has access to your previous medical information and will be able to coordinate
