#143: The Reality of Breast Implant Illness with Dr. Robert Whitfield

Dr. Tabatha Season 3 Episode 143

I have had a lot of requests to talk about Breast Implant Illness (BII), so here we go! My guest today is Dr. Robert Whitfield, a conventionally trained surgeon who has spent decades as a plastic surgeon working with patients with breast cancer, who has developed a unique approach to recovery and healing people with these conditions, as well as using alternative methods for breast reconstruction without implants.  BII is a condition where people who have had breast implants go on to develop conditions, such as chronic fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, hormone imbalance, and premature menopause, all driven by inflammation continuing to react to the implant that is in your body.


You will hear more about:

  • How BII impacts the body at a systemic level
  • How other ailments can mimic this condition (and how we go about sorting that out!)
  • Is explant surgery (implant removal) the right choice?
  • How Dr. Whitfield’s Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program makes a difference in a patient’s recovery outcome
  • What you can do if you still want implants
  • And more!
