Hi everyone 
i was wondering if anybody could recommend a plastic surgeon in Perth for a reconstruction of my right Breast, I was going to go public but after the experience I had today I’ve decided to go private.
thankyou for your help

    Abetted- Lip Teh at SJOG Subiaco specialises in DIEP reconstruction. I am sure he would do others but I am mot sure. I am 2 weeks post single DIEP and I can't speak more highly of him. Nice man. Great surgeon. Fabulous care.

    Hi @Annetted, not sure if you're a member of the Choosing Breast Reconstruction group but there are a few posts there with some recommendations for surgeons.

    If you're already a member, all you need to do to find these posts is type in Perth Surgeons in the Search bar at the top of the page in this General Discussion part of the forum and these posts should appear.

    If you're not a member, please feel free to request to join by clicking Choosing breast reconstruction under Groups. One of our group leaders will be able to join you up as soon as possible.   

    Best wishes, Jane xx

    I can highly recommend Mark Lee - also at SJOG Subiaco. His specialty is the scarless lat Dorsi - meaning he goes in through the front mastectomy scar to retrieve the lat muscle - so no back scar, quicker op time and recovery. He also does DIEP. I am gearing good things about Ian Timms and also Richard Martens. We have our reconstruction support group lunch on the 30th June 12:30 at The Herdy in Wembley - great to chat with other women who have done it or going through it. RSVP through the Reclaimyourcurves.org.au website - scroll down to events
