I never had an HPV test in 2009, but for peace of mind, and possible availability of future HPV treatments, vaccines, they may be working on, even treatment qualifications, I wish I had. They can easily do a HPV test from the biopsy. You mention two offices, so these sound like separate practices, not a multidisciplinary team of doctors in the same CCC? I went this route once, and formed my own team, and it's a lot of legwork, paperwork, updating one another, and gets confusing even for doctors that may be consulted with in the future, and can see their heads spinning explaining my treatments, so I wrote out a time line, and give them that. Good luck.

I will mention HPV test to them. Yes, where they are in Nevada, it is a team of Drs but they are in separate locations, they work "together" but it's not a seamless operation unfortunately.
