Free Breast Restoration Surgery for A Cancer Survivor in Need
Dr. Gerard Cappiello's personal life has been touched by breast cancer more than once. This year, during October, the breast cancer awareness month, Dr. Cappiello would like to perform a free breast restoration surgery for a strong cancer survivor with a compelling story, no health insurance coverage and who currently cannot afford the surgery.
There is absolutely no cost to the patient, but the following terms must be met:
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS FREE OFFER

3. All candidates will need to provide complete medical records with all supporting documentation and test results.
4. Candidates must also demonstrate that they have no health insurance to cover the cost of the procedure and that they cannot afford to pay for the surgery.

6. The patient will be chosen by the doctor and at his sole discretion.
