Weill Cornell Medicine’s breast surgeons have pioneered many of the latest advances in breast cancer treatment today. Caring for patients in all stages of breast cancer, we focus not only on treatment of the disease, but also on breast reconstruction approaches that preserve tissue and restore a woman's natural contour.
Our surgeons are part of Weill Cornell Medicine’s Breast Center, which features a multidisciplinary medical team that also includes radiologists, pathologists, medical oncologists and radiation oncologists. By working together, we provide our patients with comprehensive cancer treatment and state-of-the-art care. Our patient-centered philosophy creates a compassionate and supportive environment where patients are encouraged to take an active role in their treatment plan, while benefiting from our clinical and surgical expertise.
We are also committed to continually pursuing new treatment methods that are more effective and less invasive. While our priority is treating a patient's cancer, we also believe it is vitally important to restore the highest quality of life. Whether that involves breast augmentation or breast reduction surgery, we provide advanced reconstructive services designed to repair the affected area and restore a sense of normality to a patient’s life.
At Weill Cornell Medicine, our comprehensive Breast Center provides a full range of specialized surgical and supportive services to meet the needs of our patients, including complemntary care services, genetic risk assessment, and fertility preservation.
For those at higher risk of developing breast cancer, we also offer dedicated care through our High-Risk Breast Clinic.

View All PostsDr. Rache Simmons, chief of Breast Cancer Surgery at Weill Cornell Medicine, discussed a less invasive treatment option for breast cancer on CBS This Morning.
I feel very cared for and comfortable with Dr Otterburn and his staff. Went through a double mastectomy and now getting ready for small revision. I was confused about what I should do. But my trust in the Dr is complete and his advice calmed my confusion and gave me confidence in what I needed to do. Best Dr ever.
So professional, so patient. The whole team was just amazing
Dr Cohen, Nicole, Ashley and everyone are wonderful and I feel just very grateful to have such a great team in charge of my health. Thank You for all the support. Gloria Castellanos
