How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Update!
Still healing, but back to work and doing mostly normal things! Still wearing sports bras but haven’t tried wearing wires yet!
Two week mark!
It has now been two weeks! I had the final bandages removed two days ago! Everything appears to be healing well and looks promising!
I went shopping for the first time for some bras. I have to return to work on Monday and felt that the zip up sport bras were not going to work with many of my work attire. I fit into a D bra without any underwire but still had some support. I dug our this bras (see photo) I had ordered from Knixwear. Its a Canadian company and the bras are super comfortable, sweat proof and odor proof! They can also convert the straps and have some stretch. I would encourage any getting this bra! I think it’s great and I will continue to use it once I have recovered!
Hope everyone else is doing well!

10 days post op!
Today is the tenth day since my BR! Ive been doing pretty well, but often take advantage of when I’m feeling good to over do it!
I have my last visit to the nurse on Monday to have the final strips around my nipple and t-incision removed. Then I will be able to shower properly!
Ive gotten a small muscular hemotoma.. I thinks that’s spelt right! It’s very tender and it is hard from the pocket of blood under the skin! The nurse said that it is nothing to worry about unless it appears to be spreading.
Ive been using abdominal pads under my incisions for comfort and any excess drainage. Works better than the allergic adhesive that I had on before. In between visits to the nurse, ive been changing my gauze as needed and applying antibacterial cream to help with the healing process. It seems to be helping!
Some of the strips came off yesterday at the nurse and the adhesive is very sticky and strong. I used some rubbing alcohol to get the adhesive off my skin with a sterile gauze.
Pain is minimal. It’s only when I over exert myself that I feel any pressure of tenson. I still find driving to be a challenge. Especially for extended periods of time!
Will update again once I get the strips off!

Provider Review
Certified Plastic Surgeon
7 Paton St., St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador
Dr. Cluett is well known as being a competent surgeon. Her work is impeccable. People have commented that her bedside manner is lacking and I can see why people would think that. The woman is bombarded with surgeries daily and is trying to help as many people with the limited time she has! She may not have the time to be calming or have great bedside manner, but you cannot question her work or competence!
