I am a 5 year breast cancer survivor and to celebrate my survivor-ship, I decided that I would finally have my reconstruction. I did not have the surgery sooner as I thought, if I had a recurrence, I would just have a double mastectomy. Cancer treatment (radiation & surgery) had left me with a severely contracted and smaller left breast. The pressure from the contracture was constant and there was intermittent pain as well.
I did a lot of research and soul searching before I made the surgical decision as to what I wanted. I went into the procedure with fairly low expectations. I really wanted to have less pain/pressure and to be able to wear a bathing suit without looking bizarre. I live in Florida and had really given up public sunbathing as it was difficult to conceal my physical deformity.

Dr, Oppenheimer listened to me and we had open discussion about how to best achieve my minimal desired results. Dr. O very patiently answered my questions posed by me and my husband. We saw came to a consensus and made a surgical plan.
I am one month post op and VERY happy with my result. My breasts are much more symmetrical and the chronic pain is gone. I am very glad I chose Dr. O and trusted him with my care.
