Shanikka’s breast cancer diagnosis in 2021 shook her to her core. Two years and 16 surgeries later – including a double mastectomy – she struggled with scars, infections and leaking incisions. When Shanikka heard about DIEP flap surgery offered at Johns Hopkins, she wanted to learn more. After meeting Dr. Mundy in person, Shanikka felt a sense of hope she hadn’t had since she was first diagnosed. She underwent deep flap surgery, without complications, and is now at ease with her body. https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/plastic-reconstructive-surgery/services-appts/reconstructive-surgery-after-breast-cancer #breastreconstruction #johnshopkins #deepflapsurgery
