New Jersey Breast Reduction, a Real Lifesaver!

team_photo_janet_04.jpgFor Ellen, an elementary school teacher from New Jersey, breast reduction surgery was a real lifesaver. Breast reduction wasn’t just a cosmetic choice for Ellen, but a medical issue as well. Her breast size had caused chronic back and neck pain, and had made life truly uncomfortable for her for years. Though breast reduction is often considered reconstructive, therefore covered by some insurance policies, Ellen did not meet the qualifications under her health care plan and had to look for other ways to pay for her procedure.
