Awards & Recognitions

Had right breast mastectomy due to breast cancer. Expander installed by Dr. Schneider during same operation with Dr. Carr. After 3 mos. breast implant was inserted. I was happy with it but the scar across the center of my breast was horrific, stayed red and cold. I went on-line & looked at many photos of women who had reconstruction after breast cancer and my scar was worse than anyones. After emailing him with photos almost a year after surgery, asking why my scar was so bad & it cold to the touch, I went in for a consult. He threw me out of his office and said he was no longer my doctor.
