Dr. R is an amazing, wonderful surgeon. I had breast cancer and had a bilateral mastectomy. Dr. R was and is my plastic surgeon.
My choice was to have DIEP flap breast reconstruction. I had many questions concerning the reconstruction. Dr. R listened to my questions and answered with concern and honesty. Dr R performed the surgery with the skill and the attention of an artist. He is detail orientated. Never once did I question his work or decisions concerning my health or the final outcome of the appearance of my body.
I am one year post–op, and I feel I look better than before my surgery. He truly is a surgical artist. Life is good!
Great review?
