Family medicine training, private practice setting, greater percentage of panel of older patients, and viewing the ordering physician (versus radiologist) as primarily responsible for notifying patients of abnormal results were positively associated with feeling equipped to explain the biopsy process. Challenges in communication due to cultural differences between PCP and patient were negatively associated with a physician\u2019s sense of expertise to answer questions about biopsy results.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PCPs reported having the expertise to discuss the results of breast biopsies with women less frequently than they reported feeling equipped to discuss the breast biopsy process.
