Hi everyone, 

whilst not ready for a reconstruction of my right boob. I am never the less looking for recommendations as to good consultants. I find it’s very random who you see, and I don’t actually know anyone who has had muscle/tissue from their back used to recreate a boob. (Without silicone implant). If you google centre of excellence for breast reconstruction Chelsea Hospital comes up. But I live in the north east. 

so my question is: who is the best reconstructive surgeon. 

any recommendations?

  • Hi, I'm one of the champions here in this group and I noticed you haven't had any response yet, maybe as the chat is quite busy.   You might give the lovely folks here at Macmillan a call, on 0800 808 0000 to see if they have any lists or recommendations. Best wishes

  • The hospital you are under would usually refer you to onco-plastics who would discuss all options with you. My oncologist told me they can take tissue from anywhere you just have to have a CT scan to check all the blood vessels are suitable.
