I'm in Montana and have had an awful (LONG) ordeal in reconstruction with some awful results. I'm considering this guy in Dallas. I have family in Dallas/Ft. Worth so I have to go there for this next round. Has to be a doctor that does microsurgery too. Any info on him would be greatly appreciated.

    New-girl, I DID see Dr. Teotia last month. I leave in one week to go back to Dallas and my PAP flap surgery is scheduled for March 29th. The only way this is possible for me is because my family is in the DFW area so I can recover by staying with family.

    I was very impressed with Dr Teotia. I haven't met Dr. Haddock yet but I meet him on Thursday, March 24th - same day as my CT scans and preop. I haven't had a real warm fuzzy feeling with their nurse, Teresa. She's a little abrupt but I'm hoping I just got the wrong impression. Be sure and ask to see pictures! I forgot to ask to see their work and before and afters. When I got back home to Montana I called to ask Teresa if they could email or even mail me photos and she basically told me I missed my opportunity. She suggested I could make another appointment to come back to see photos. Unfortunately I can't afford to fly from Montana to Texas again just to see oictures. It's too bad she couldn't quite grasp my situation. And, not sure if you've noticed but there aren't a lot of PAP flap photos out there.

    I think Drs Teotia and Haddock are very skilled and experienced, I look forward to hearing about your experience.

    Dr. Teotia is one of the top breast reconstruction surgeons in the country. I had my mastectomy at UT Southwestern. The oncology dept. refers it's patients to only 4 of the plastic surgeons at UTSW. I know only who two of them are; Dr. Teotia, and my surgeon, Dr. Rozen. I don't think you can go wrong with either of these very capable docs.
