“Being a breast surgeon allows me the opportunity to take care of a variety of patients with both benign and malignant diseases of the breast. I have the privilege of working closely with patients and their families to develop the best treatment plan for each person’s individual needs. It is my goal to ensure that care is delivered in a respectful and compassionate manner, taking into account physical, social and emotional well-being and focusing on the person as a whole.”

  • "I have had the great pleasure in being a patient of Dr Hopkins of Astera Cancer care since my breast cancer journey began in Dec 2021. She was the only surgeon I found that saw me within a week of my phone call following cancer screenings of a mammogram ordered by my primary dr after finding a lump . This was during the Covid aftermath and finding a surgeon was almost impossible . Astera Care made certain that I was seen immediately, and Dr Hopkins took the lead and pushed for my biopsy to be done . Though at the time the place doing biopsies was booked out into February of 2022 , Dr Hopkins made sure I was given a biopsy within 2 weeks of meeting her , and my surgery was done by January 20th . She made me feel safe , heard ,seen , and comforted during a scary time in my life . Facing breast cancer was difficult, but facing it with the confident, intelligent , professional , and sympathetic not to mention gifted Dr Hopkins made my time less scary, less lonely and very encouraging. When I met with her following my biopsies to discuss my options, she answered every question I had and even some I didn't think of . My favorite memory was despite the crazy times of covid , this amazing Dr. broke through the barriers in place and hugged me . During a time of fear and uncertainty for my health as well as the uncertainty of Covid , she sensed my need for comfort and asked first , then pulled me into her arms assuring me I was going to be ok and that she was going to take care of me . Reminding me that there were still Dr's that understood the need to connect with their patients . I will never forget that hug. I will forever be grateful to my Surgeon Dr Lisa Hopkins and the dedicated staff of Astera Cancer care , who took my hand and led me to the other side of my Canver Journey. Thank you Dr's Hopkins , I would reccomend you to anyone . May God bless you always. Cindi Terranova"

She welcomed me with a warm smile and a calm, soothing voice that immediately eased my anxiety. Her ability to explain complex medical information in a clear, professional, and patient-friendly way is truly remarkable. She takes time to listen, answers every question with care, and never makes you feel rushed. If you’re looking for a skilled, compassionate, and trustworthy doctor who truly puts patients first, I can’t recommend Dr. Hopkins enough. You’ll be in excellent hands."
