Being a breast cancer survivor allows me to share first-hand what to expect with being a patient of Dr. Michael Glafkides. Thankfully, he was my Reconstructive Surgeon and he did a beyond excellent job!
10 years later, I am lucky enough to work as his Patient Coordinator and help newly diagnosed women get through the process and feel empowered.
