I had a cancer removed from one of my eyelids and a reconstruction at the same time. I am very discouraged by my appearence but my current doctor does not seem to take my concerns seriously. I am greatful that the cancer was successfully removed but I am wondering if anything can be done for my appearance?

This is a common situation. Your doctor may simply feel that your reconstruction was the best that could be done under the circumstances. We find that a fresh set of eyes is sometimes very helpful. A personal consultation with Dr. Steinsapir will reaffirm your current doctors management or provide you with a new direction to improve your appearance following cancer reconstruction. Most patients find this a very helpful and informative visit.
