WORTH IT$10,000
October 10, 2011, I was diagnosed with stage 3A Invasive Lobular Carcinoma. I was told I would need to have both breasts removed along with my nipples. I have had 5 reconstructive procedures to try to "undo" what the cancer and effects of radiation did to me. I am so pleased with all the work I had

When you have this type of diagnosis, all sorts of things go through your mind. I was a 36C breast size at the time of my diagnosis and all I wanted was to "look normal" again. Dr. Deutsch and his staff literally walked me through one of the most terrifying times in my life. I have had 5 reconstructive procedures and am awaiting the final tattooing procedure. I had to have my nipples reconstructed and Dr. Deutsch has done an amazing job!!!! I am now a 34D and couldn't be happier. I would highly recommend him to anyone who may be facing these same circumstances. He was an answer to my prayers and is definitely a very "gifted" and talented physician.
