Cassidy Mitchell, MD

They say having a child makes you feel more like a woman, well after 3 children my body was anything but womanly.  I struggled with the effects that pregnancy and breastfeeding had on my body and I decided to do something for myself. After researching several doctors I felt the most confident and comfortable with Dr. Mitchell.  The staff and Dr. Mitchell made me feel very at ease; they explained the procedure, what to expect post surgery and the final results.  They made the entire process very easy and comfortable.

 I am beyond happy with my results. Even my OB commented how great they looked and thought Dr. Mitchell had done "excellent work.” Thank you Lincoln Aesthetic Surgical Institute. I have never felt more womanly and beautiful.

In September 2008 I was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time in my life.  Because of treatment I had received 23 years prior, I chose to undergo a double mastectomy with reconstruction.  I did some research and visited a couple of surgeons in Lincoln; I actually made an appointment for surgery with one of them.  I was also referred to Dr. Cassidy Mitchell.  After speaking to him on the phone and meeting with him, I chose to change doctors and have Dr. Mitchell help me with this challenge.  Dr. Mitchell was new to Lincoln then, but I felt very confident about how he was approaching my surgery and about his compassion towards me as a woman and patient facing a very difficult surgery.  I have never regretted that decision.  It has been a year, almost to the day, since my reconstruction was complete.  I am very happy with the results, but most of all, Dr. Mitchell approached the choices, surgery, recovery and reconstruction in a way that made me feel comforted, confident and as though I was in charge.  That was important to me at a time when women often feel like their lives have gone completely out of control.  I highly recommend him as a surgeon.  His work is impeccable.  I also have to say my general surgeon, Dr. Carolyn Cody, and the nursing staff at Bryan LGH West were also incredibly supportive.  What a team.  I am blessed.  I’m cancer free, making music with my husband, and moving on with life.  Thanks to all of you at Bryan LGH.  Thanks, Dr. Mitchell for helping me, for sharing your talent, and treating me with kindness.  I’ll never forget it.
