Mission

Prior to undergoing breast cancer therapy, all women will be offered information about the options for reconstructive breast surgery and be provided access to breast reconstruction in a safe and timely manner

Values

  • Reconstructive breast surgery has a positive effect on quality of life for women requiring breast reconstruction.
  • All women who are candidates for breast reconstruction should be made aware of the options available to them.
