It Takes Two: Dr. Eggleston Discusses How Partners Can Support Women Through Breast Reconstruction After Cancer

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men’s Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in medical and urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee ire joined by friend of the practice, Dr. Eggleston of Breast Reconstruction Associates. Dr. Eggleston performs complicated microsurgical reconstructions for women recovering from breast cancer. Today, Dr. Eggleston describes what's called the "free flap" or "diep flap" breast reconstruction technique. This allows surgeons to remove a section of excess abdominal skin with blood vessels intact and transfer that section to the breast. Dr. Eggleston is also incredibly skilled at helping women and their partners navigate the emotional rollercoaster that accompanies a breast cancer diagnosis and the resulting surgical reconstruction. With compassionate guidance, both women and their partners are encouraged to explore the expectations they have for breast look, feel, and sensation after surgery. If you or someone you know has been recently diagnosed with breast cancer or is interested in learning more about the reconstructive surgeries possible at Breast Reconstruction Associates, please give Dr. Eggleston a call today at (512) 763-4545 or online at txdiepflap.com.
