excellent care

Through my reconstruction Dr. Pennington has been supportive. I trust his decision making, He worked with my breast surgeon to make sure everything was done in a way to allow for my reconstruction. Excellent bedside care for both my husband and myself.

Great Results

I trusted Dr. Pennington with my results since I first came to him when I was 18. When I turned 20, I finally decided to get my procedure done. He listened to all of my wants and needs, and made me feel very involved in my experience. He did a fantastic job and I would do it all over again!
