I was diagnosed with breast cancer, both breasts,...
I was diagnosed with breast cancer, both breasts, May 2014. After making the decision to have a bi-lateral mastectomy done, I was referred to Dr. Caroline Plamondon for reconstruction. From the initial visit, I felt a high level of comfort and care from Dr. Plamondon and her staff. The first procedure we tried the nipple saving procedure with reconstruction immediately following the mastectomy. We encountered infection and food poisoning The implants had to be removed. Now what I saw in the mirror was something that no one could even look at...not even myself. I felt so grateful that I was winning the fight against cancer, but somewhere along the road, I felt I had lost a part of myself. Dr. Plamondon told me she could fix anything as she was leaving the exam room at one of my appointments, and she kept her word. Through this entire process, I kept hearing her words of confidence that things would be OK, and it kept me believing when I felt myself giving up hope. We did the Latissimus Dorsi Flap with Tissue Expanders in July 2015. The incisions from that surgery were done from the armpit down my side, so you can hardly see the incisions. March 9, 2016, we removed the tissue expanders and put in the silicone implants. I could not believe my eyes, even one day after surgery, when I looked and saw what she had done. It was nothing short of a miracle. My life will never be the same, but Dr. Caroline J. Plamondon has given me a chance at leading a somewhat normal life again… a chance to "live" life again.

Dr. Caroline J. Plamondon never gave up on me. Although we ran into a setback, she did not waiver from what she said she could do for me at our first appointment. When I got the infection, she called me each day prior to the surgery. Dr. Plamondon answered my questions via email whenever I had one, and so did her staff. I felt safe and secure in her care. She guided me through this life changing process that breast cancer had dealt. She is the best, and so is her staff.
