This free event has been organised by the Breast Cancer Foundation and Te Whatu Ora Counties Manukau and will be held at the Waipuna Hotel and Conference Centre, 58 Waipuna Rd, Mt Wellington, Auckland at 6pm on Wednesday 16 October 2024. To book tickets, please click on this link.
A panel of plastic surgeons will talk about all the different options for reconstruction, the timing of surgery, what to expect from recovery and how to work out which option to choose. Following the presentations there will be time for questions and discussion. Drinks and nibbles will be served and there will be an opportunity to browse the trade stands and chat with the speakers and women who have had a breast reconstruction.
This is an 'in-person only' event and there will not be a video recording made.
