One in eight women will be affected by breast cancer during her lifetime. If you are one of them, we are here for you.

Services

At the NMMC Breast and General Surgery Clinic, our surgeon offers:

• Oncoplastic surgery techniques allow us to preserve the form and function of your breast after breast cancer surgery using plastic surgery techniques. Dr. Sanders performs these techniques for tumor removal using procedures such as breast reduction lumpectomy, mastopexy and other tissue rearrangement procedures.
• Hidden scar surgery minimizes your visual reminders of cancer.
• Nipple sparing mastectomy allows for immediate reconstruction, preserving the breast’s skin and nipple.
• Stereotactic breast biopsy is a percutaneous needle biopsy using mammography for guidance.
