In May 2015 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer for the second time. My left breast had to come off but i chose a double mastectomy to avoid this path again. I was delighted to learn i would wake with a partial reconstruction done simultaneously, the conclusion to occur following chemo. I couldn't be happier with the result. My breast surgeon recommended the plastic surgeon to conduct this procedure and his skill has allowed me to feel incredibly normal, my breasts are a perfect shape and the size is apt for my body, and pain and inconvenience has been minimal. I consider him my Rockstar.
