Testi "Dear Dr. Kobienia,

Thank you for being my plastic surgeon for my breast reconstruction. My husband and I couldn't be more pleased with my new body.

After my mastectomy, I couldn't look at myself without crying and I know I was one of the lucky ones! I appreciate your expertise, patience, kindness and sense of humor. Your humor was wonderful during a very rough time in my life. I actually enjoyed coming to your office, everyone was very friendly and easy to talk to. I hope you enjoy your cabin this summer and can spend the 4th on Koronis. We love it. Its a great stress killer for my husband and I. We are all very lucky. Take care and I'll see you in a couple years."
