Hi @tul, I'm in NSW and went public for skin and nipple sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction. I used a oncoplastic surgeon who I met through breast screen and her work is fantastic. I'm currently on the waiting list to have a reduction to my natural breast to have it matched and that was given a year time limit (now within 9 months).

If you're in NSW and you would like surgeons name am more than happy to help. All the best. Xx Cath
