THE GOLD STANDARD IN BREAST RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY IN NEW ORLEANS & METAIRIE LA

Breast Reconstruction is performed to restore the breasts after a breast cancer patient has already had a mastectomy or is currently undergoing a mastetcomy. Sometimes this is refered to as pre- and post- mastectomy. Renowned breast reconstruction surgeon, Dr. Theunissen, offers the most advanced breast reconstruction options in New Orleans, Metairie, and accross Louisiana, as well as the entire US. Some of the breast cancer reconstruction procedures can also be performed in conjunction with others to achieve needed and desired results. Dr. Theunissen only employs only the most advanced muscle-sparing reconstructive breast procedures, which take fat and skin tissue, from the patient’s thighs, abdomen, buttocks, and sometimes multiple donor sites. These muscle – sparing breast reconstructions are considered the best breast reconstruction options available because women can recover so much faster, without sacrificing abdominal muscles as previously sacrificed  in older methods like the TRAM Flap.

Dr. Theunissen, along with his entire staff understand being diagnosed with cancer a difficult diagnosis to deal with, which is why Dr. Theunissen and his staff are there for each patient each step of the way. They are available to answer all of your concerns and questions to help you be as informed as possible on the options, steps, outcomes, or anythign else which may cause concern.

Reviews & Testimonials

What Our Patients Are Saying

Dr. Theunissen performed a double breast reconstruction for me, and I have been very pleased with my care and the final results of my surgery. Dr. T knows his field extremely well and is a skilled surgeon and the nicest physician I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

 DOUBLE BREAST RECONSTRUCTION

I was referred to Dr. Theunissen by my oncologist Dr. Bowie(for breast reconstruction). This was not a surgery I wanted to do but needed to do, and I had a lot of anxiety. He really eased my mind by answering all my questions. I trusted Dr. Theunissen & his staff to take care of everything, and I’m glad I did! I could not be more happy & healthier now!! :-)”

DIEP RECONSTRUCTION -A.L.

“After complications with breast reconstruction implants from previous double mastectomy and reconstruction performed by well-known surgeon in New Orleans, Dr. T spent several visits with me explaining Diep Flap procedure. I really did not want to have this surgery; however, it was my best option. I’m so thankful for Dr. Theunissen and his highly experienced staff! My results are fabulous! I smile every day when I think of what a challenge I was and how happy I am today! Dr. Theunissen did his job, God heals!!!”
