Hi there again @Lisa Janelle. I finished chemo oct last year and the wait list is so long as there are only 1 to 3 plastic surgeons available at the royal and they do more than just breast recon. And there are many times when one or two of them are away and this puts extra pressure on the system as they can only see so many patients. Breast recon is also considered an elective procedure some dickhead bloke politician must of made that decision for sure. There needs to be more funding to help reduce the waiting times and this is what I’ve been advocating for. No luck yet unfortunately. Depending on where you are the Gold Coast does it too I think from memory but it’s zoned and you would have to live within the zone. Margie. Xx
