    I have only found one PS in the area that will take Missouri Medicaid and he has a waiting list for a year and a half. Does anyone out there know of someone I could go to? I had a BMX and don't want to stay this way that long.

    Did you check with St. Luke's?  They are a certified breast center and may have someone on staff.

    Carrol, I am too in KC and have yet to find one that takes Health Care USA. I am hoping to find one soon but my recon will come after chemo:( Keep me posted on this matter and I will you also.

    KC looks like I will be waiting it out for my doctor at Truman. He has told me not to worry that they wont keep me waiting too long. Apparently the nurse told me it would be a year and a half because the other doctor only does this surgery 1 year after chemo. My doctor says that is old school and today no one does that. I would think you would have way more options with your insurance than my medicaid. Today they sent me a list of doctors in the area. So if I am not happy I can check those out i guess.
