2 years agoI'm looking for a surgeon in Alabama preferably that can perform asthetic flat closure. I had double mastectomy in June 2023, and can't find local surgeon that has performed. If not Alabama, I'm willing to travel to have it done, but need to make sure they accept BCBS of Alabama.
Accepted Answer
Finding a surgeon experienced in aesthetic flat closure can be challenging, but many patients in this community have successfully connected with skilled providers both locally and through travel. Consider reaching out to major cancer centers or plastic surgery practices that specialize in post-mastectomy procedures, as they're more likely to have experience with this technique and can verify insurance coverage with BCBS of Alabama beforehand.

6 months agoDr Jeane-Claude Schwartz in Lawrenceville, Ga (just outside of Atlanta). I have BCBS of Ga. Maybe they will. He’s really amazing and made my experience easier than I could have thought
