Dr. Christina Y. Ahn was featured on CBS Sunday Morning News:”The Model and the mastectomy: Baring all after breast cancer”
My history, when I met Dr Ahn, included many repeat surgeries due to my body’s inability to accept breast implants after a bilateral mastectomy. I met Dr Ahn in approximately 1993, at UCLA Medical Center, when autologous transdermal flaps were in the early stages of development. I was working with UCLA and heard about the program. I approached the program with great hope..hope that the end of a succession of surgeries might be in sight. I have to say, twenty nine years later, the surgery was an amazing success. She is a very caring, and gifted surgeon
