607 diep flaps PRMA Plastic Surgery

A few weeks ago, we announced our record breaking 600th DIEP flap breast reconstruction procedure for 2016! We kept at it for the few working days remaining in the year, and we are proud to announce we performed a grand total of 607 DIEP flaps last year!

We have all been away from the office celebrating the holidays with our family and attending the American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery meeting, BUT we have finally ALL made our way back to the office to celebrate this enormous achievement!

We are proud to share this moment with you all! Thank you for allowing us to serve you and we look forward to rebuilding lives after breast cancer in 2017!
