DIEP DOCS

Physicians...if you perform DIEP reconstruction, incorporate DIEP, routinely, into your breast reconstruction procedures... and would like your name and contact info added to this list, send an email with all information to:

admin @  diepbreastreconstruction  dot  org.

You must have either a website or a link that you can provide to your place of practice, which states that you perform this procedure. This allows a potential patient to have access to your website or your place of practice, for informational purposes. Donations are welcome.

This page is a work in progress, as I will be adding docs as I learn about them and their locations. The listing of docs are in alphabetical order, by state/country. Being that there are so few Plastic Surgeons who perform this surgery, there is no listing of every state. I have tried to list docs from different areas of each corner of the country so that you may have a central idea as to how far you have to travel to reach them. Some of the links will only get you to the general site and give info about the fact that the facility does DIEP or GAP. From that point, you will have to locate the doc who actually does the procedure. I am providing the locations of the facilities/sites that perform the procedure. Some will include the docs who have private practices.
