Mastectomy advice
I've made my choice so no need for any replies!
Love this site by the way - great to see other people's opinions and advice.
Hi all, I'm looking for advice on choosing a surgeon for my mastectomy and reconstruction. I'm in the process of finishing my last round of chemo - 10 weeks to go! Yey. and I have to let my oncologist know which surgeon I want as I need to have a mastectomy and reconstruction in a few months. Do I choose a surgeon and plastic surgeon or do I choose a surgeon who can do both?? I'm in Cork and there are only 2 surgeons that are trained to do both. Finding it a hard decision to make!! Any tips from someone who's been through this? Thanks.
