Double mastectomy Tasmania

Hi

Can anyone recommend a plastic surgeon for a double mastectomy and reconstruction in Tasmania?  I’m yet to decide if I want a flap reconstruction or implants so ideally would like recommendations for surgeons that do both. Launceston is my closest town for surgery.  I could also look to Melbourne but am aware it will likely be more costly. Thank you for any insight.

    I am in Sydney not Tasmania but can suggest you join the private choosing breast reconstruction group to access photos and stories.

    i had double mastectomy and DiEp flap revivsttt ER action and my story dnd photos are in the private group .

    It’s a big surgery and big recovery but I would do it again in  a heartbeat .
