Dr. Fine and Dr. Schierle are the most competent and meticulous plastic surgeons. I love their positive attitudes and their ability to make things look as normal as possible after a mastectomy. The entire office staff help in making things go as smoothly and easily as possible after a difficult diagnosis. I highly recommend Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery!
Patients Say
Mastectomy
A mastectomy is surgery to remove a breast. Sometimes other tissues near the breast, such as lymph nodes, are also removed. This surgery is most often used to treat breast cancer. In some cases, a mastectomy is done to help prevent breast cancer in women who have a high risk for it.
