WORTH IT
I was recommended to Mr Ross to discuss the options I had regards my Breast Cancer surgery ,it was a very emotional time for me ,I was feeling very apprehensive ,and frightened , but he explained the procedure in full , the advantages of having a Mastectomy and Reconstruction all in one procedure , what to expect when I came round from the anesthetic , day by day what would happen , how I would feel the first couple days , I decided to go ahead , and was thrilled with the outcome .

Mr Ross explained in full the whole procedure in full from start to finish ,explaining each step of the way what would happen , he immediately gave me the confidence ,and trust to go ahead with the surgery , I liked his approach and frankness ,nothing came as a suprize or shock when I had my operation ,it was exactly as he had explained ,all the equipment was there to help me drips ,drains , doing the the job they were there for ,he told me the first couple of days would be the worst (he was right !!) but I felt great relief to have come through it ,with the added bonus of a great new boob and an amazing flat wash board stomach,what a perk !! The after care continued when I left to go home ,telling me to ring ,if I had any concerns , and then continued visits for check ups , Some time later he even created a nipple for me from my own skin , then later I had the tattoo done to complete the final look ,it's amazing !! I felt so lucky to have had the skill and care from Mr Ross at a time in my life when I needed it most , I always knew I could ring him if I had any worries ,go back to the hospital , always reassuring ,I am so happy with the outcome , 4 years on the big scar on my very flat abdomin is hardly visible ( my friends are so envious !) My new boob ,,you can hardly tell the difference between that and my original one , Gary Ross will always be ''number 1''. He is a Brilliant ,Caring ,Skilled ,Surgeon .

Thank you for starting your review.

I would love to add your experience to the Breast Reconstruction community, but it would be helpful if you could provide some more detail about your experience with your procedure/treatment. I suggest adding before and after photos - optional of course, so that other community members can use your review as a guide throughout their journey.

As a surgeon there is nothing more rewarding than hearing the stories of patients years after surgery. Thankyou so much for sharing this.
