Frustrating to find out that ANOTHER HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SURGEON is not covered by my insurance.  First, the Huntsman Cancer Institute is NOT covered...really?  EVERY insurance should be covering the premier cancer institute in the state!  Now, this other surgeon isn't covered.  I hope to find another highly recommended physician to get a second opinion.  This is frustrating and so much effort!

Aetna gave me the names of plastic surgeons covered in the area.  So tonight I am trying to search the web for information on these providers.  One practice has very informative videos on their website.  they explain various methods of reconstruction and show a pros/cons list of the various methods.  This is well worth a viewing.

You can access the videos at http://content.understand.com/Players/Flash/?page=Menu&account=warnock.  If this link doesn't work, then go to
http://premierplasticsurgerygroup.com  and click on the tab "View Procedures in 3D".  Then click on "Breast" and "Breast Reconstruction" from a drop down menu.
