Working with Dr Goodman was a pleasure. She is committed, professional and hugely informed. I appreciated her no-nonsense honestly given the consequential decision that had to be made. At the age of 50, with my BRAC2 positive test, but no cancer, I opted for a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy and oophorectomy, performed on the same day, 7 years ago. The recovery was without complications. I had my breasts reconstructed and was on Hormone Replacement Therapy to soften the transition for a number of years. Dr Goodman was recommended by my breast surgeon (Dr Cheryle Ewing). My gynecologist (Dr David Galland), who did the oophorectomy, also remarked on Dr Goodman's superior surgical skills. Something of an artist, Dr. Goodman worked to preserve my contours and comfort with the design of a nipple-saving reconstruction regimen that employed a series of expansions before introducing implants. She is efficient and organized and I always knew I was in very capable hands. During the past 7 years I have been nothing but relieved to have my "ticking time bombs" gone. I remain cancer-free and am 100% sure this was the right decision for me. It's a tough process at the time, but the long-term relief is worth every minute of it. I highly recommend the skills and expertise of Dr Goodman.
