    Hi

    I am newly dx with breast cancer and have undergone bilateral mastectomy and am cancer free. Initially I was worried about the long surgical time for reconstructive microvascular surgery and the fact that I have no abdominal fat so that I would need some form of free flap - TUG or GAP- so I was going to have tissue expanders and implants.  I am  reconsidering this decision and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations regarding high-volume well trained microvascular surgeons in or near NYC. thanks

    When I researched this Robert Allen's group in NY (there are a number of p.s. in the group) came up as being considered very skilled so I just wanted to put them on your radar.

    In my case I decided the doctors in NOLA (Dr. DellaCroce's group) were a better fit for me. I traveled to NOLA for my sGAP surgery.
