A Note From November's Meeting


“The meeting November 8th was most informative.  Dr. Jennifer Tittensor shared new information with the group about new gene testing on the mastectomy tissue, which still can be done after the fact.  It can determine who really needs chemo and who does not.  This with updates on gene testing and mastectomy and control of pain were some of the topics covered.  Dr Jon Bishop discussed the recent advances and indications of using dermal substitutes in making the results of immediate reconstruction better in terms of less surgery, better symmetry of size and softness.  Refreshments were enjoyed by all for a great evening. “


Thanks, Jon Bishop
