Let alone the trauma associated with breast cancer and various forms of surgery, finding mastectomy bras, prosthetics and other mastectomy products of suitable quality that fit well, and provide support and beauty can add another dimension to frustration if not thoughtfully undertaken.

Certified prosthetic fitters have been trained to assist their clients with obtaining a fit that is right for them. They take into account not just a proper fit, but also in products that are better suited to a client's lifestyle. Ordering forms without going through a fitter often results in unsatisfactory products and dissatisfied customers, which means the products end up not being utilized.

Roberta Peregrine, of Second to Nature Mastectomy Boutique in St. Joseph and Kansas City, offers her clients the option of coming to her shop to find the right product line for them, or if they are unable to travel to St. Joseph (such as those clients who live in Kansas City), she operates a mobile fitting business that comes to them and takes care of providing what the client really needs and wants.

Carol W. recently commented:

"I cannot remember a happier day than my appointment with Second To Nature.

Since my mastectomy in Dec. of 2005 I have never felt so cared about, helped, and or met anyone so determined to please and help me be comfortable with myself.

I am grateful from the first phone conversation, and now my new, beautiful fitting bra's that have been adjusted in every way for comfort and symmetry.

Thank you for your patience and kindness and all the effort you pt into making my everyday life better, as a cancer survivor."
