Women from Kissimmee, Florida, who have elected a partial mastectomy for the treatment of breast cancer are encouraged to travel to Moffitt Cancer Center, located just a short drive away in Tampa. A partial mastectomy is the surgical removal of a breast tumor, along with a rim of noncancerous tissue and possibly some lymph nodes. As with any other cancer procedure, it is a surgeon’s expertise that can make the difference in a patient’s quality of life after a partial mastectomy. At Moffitt, we offer a level of surgical expertise that far exceeds that of other providers. This consistently leads to highly successful partial mastectomy outcomes as well as patient satisfaction rankings that exceed 95 percent.Â
