Breast Reduction
Posted on September 26, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Breast reduction surgery is surgery that I very often will do in the hospital because it’s usually covered by insurance. It’s for women that have very large breasts. They may have back pain, neck pain. They may have a lot of trouble wearing normal clothes. And very often it’s women that just can’t exercise because of the weight and the pain in their breasts. We work with women very carefully to get it covered by insurance most of the time, but at the same time there are women with slightly smaller breasts that wouldn’t be eligible for insurance coverage. And in those women we may operate on them in our accredited facility in the office where a smaller operation is necessary and they’re able to go home the same evening.
