Recognized for Excellence in Reconstructive Surgery

Dr. Tandon’s dedication to breast reconstruction has earned the respect of peers and patients alike. He is board-certified and fellowship-trained in reconstructive microsurgery, with experience that extends across complex cancer-related procedures and advanced aesthetic refinement. His work in West Long Branch reflects the same precision and compassion that define his Louisiana practice, offering patients the highest standard of surgical care close to home.

Understanding Cost and Insurance Coverage

Most breast reconstruction procedures are covered under insurance thanks to the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998, which requires group health plans to pay for mastectomy, reconstruction, prostheses, and treatment of related complications. Coverage is also available through Medicare, and Dr. Tandon’s team can assist patients in navigating their benefits.

For patients consulting at our West Long Branch location, insurance participation and financing options may vary by carrier. Our coordinators work closely with both practices to clarify your coverage, estimate out-of-pocket costs, and ensure that financial concerns never stand in the way of care.

 

Advanced Techniques for Restored Comfort and Confidence

Dr. Ravi Tandon remains at the forefront of reconstructive innovation, offering techniques that prioritize both natural results and patient well-being. Through his partnership with Doctor V Plastic Surgery in West Long Branch, NJ, patients have access to leading-edge methods that combine surgical precision with artistic detail.

One of Dr. Tandon’s most advanced procedures is Resensation®, a specialized microsurgical technique designed to help restore sensation to the breast and nipple area after reconstruction. By carefully reconnecting nerves during surgery, he enhances the potential for a more natural postoperative experience.

Dr. Tandon also performs complex microsurgical procedures such as DIEP flap reconstruction, which preserves muscle strength while rebuilding the breast with soft, natural tissue. His refined skill set allows him to customize every reconstruction, ensuring each woman receives care that aligns beautifully with her anatomy, lifestyle, and recovery goals.
