WORTH IT
December 8, 2021, I heard the words that nobody wants to hear...you have breast cancer. I was a candidate for a double mastectomy with reconstructive surgery. On March 31, 2022, I had both procedures done at the same time. When I had my consultation with Dr. Ruane, I was uncertain what the procedure entailed. He exceeded my expectations with how he explained everything in detail and was so compassionate as he knew my diagnosis. He spoke to me with the utmost respect. I am so thankful that I chose to have the reconstructive surgery, it made me feel whole again after having the mastectomy. The implants were difficult to adapt to at first but with time I became more comfortable. Dr. Ruane listened to my concerns and addressed them accordingly. I had the first implants removed and new ones placed with fat grafting. I was anxious to see the results after surgery and when I was cleared to remove the bandages, I cried tears of joy. My breasts look perfect!! I had my follow up appointment today and could not be more pleased with the outcome!! In addition to Dr. Ruane, the office staff are outstanding!! Very friendly and accommodating. The wait time in the waiting room is under 5 minutes every time! I would highly recommend the practice as well as the procedure!!
What a difficult year :( I'm so glad to hear you are starting to feel better and that you're healing. *hugs*
