virtual breast reconstruction consultation PRMA Plastic Surgery

Does PRMA offer face-to-face virtual consultations?

PRMA provides patients with today’s most advanced breast reconstruction procedures.

We believe everyone has the right to know ALL their reconstructive options. To make this process easier, we offer virtual face-to-face consultations with our breast reconstruction specialists.

Patients can submit their information via a secure online form. Once received, one of our plastic surgeons will review and provide their recommendations.

This process allows individuals to begin their breast reconstruction journey from the comfort of their homes anywhere in the world.

Many patients do not have local access to today’s advanced procedures like the DIEP flap and must travel for reconstruction. Our consultations give these patients the opportunity to discuss their options with an experienced surgeon from their hometown. If patients then choose to travel to PRMA, we offer a dedicated liaison to help coordinate their journey and provide information on the many organizations available to help assist with travel and accommodation costs. Traveling for reconstruction may seem overwhelming, but it’s easier than you might think! Watch below to hear real patients share their experiences with traveling to PRMA from all over the world.

If you are interested in learning more about your breast reconstruction options fill out our secure form today!
