Breast Surgery and Care

Breast surgery refers to medical procedures performed on breast tissue for various reasons, including cancer treatment, preventive care, and reconstruction. Our skilled surgical team offers advanced breast procedures tailored to each patient’s needs. Common reasons for breast surgery include:

• Breast Cancer Surgery – Partial mastectomy or lumpectomy, also known as breast-conserving surgery, for cancer treatment.
• Risk-Reducing Mastectomy – Proactive removal of breast tissue for high-risk patients, like those with specific pathogenic mutations and other rare conditions/specific criteria for family history.
• Benign Breast Lesion Removal – Treatment for fibroadenomas, cysts, or benign tumors.
• Breast Reduction – Surgery to alleviate pain or discomfort from large breasts.
• Breast Reconstruction – Reconstruction surgery after mastectomy and lumpectomy.
• Breast Augmentation – Cosmetic enhancement of breast size and shape.

Our breast surgery specialists diagnose and treat a range of breast-related conditions, including:

• Breast Abscesses and Mastitis – Infections that cause painful swelling or inflammation or infection of breast tissue, often affecting breastfeeding mothers
• Breast Cancer – Malignant tumors requiring surgical and oncologic care.
• Breast Cysts – Fluid-filled lesions that are often benign and may be aspirated if symptomatic
• Breast Masses – Benign and high-risk lesions.
• Mastalgia (Breast Pain) – Chronic or acute breast discomfort.

We also provide screening for breast cancer and genetic testing for patients at risk.
