"I was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 1/2 years ago, at the age of 38. I chose to be aggressive and underwent a bilateral mastectomy with chemotherapy and radiation. I had two failed implant surgeries, as well as a failed 9 hour gluteal free flap surgery (not under Dr. Spear's care). Thankfully, a friend suggested that I consult Dr. Spear. After a very candid discussion of my limited options, I decided to allow Dr. Spear one final attempt to help me. Dr. Spear performed a successful TRAM-flap surgery to reconstruct my right breast, which was previously left concave with a protruding rib. In every step of the process, from surgery to recovery to follow-ups, I received absolutely excellent care. I am indebted to Dr. Spear for finally providing me the last stepping stone in my journey with breast cancer. I will finally put this all behind me!" - M.R.
