Recommendations wrt plastic surgery

2018-12-15 11:32:03
Cancer surgeon is already operating this week for mouth cancer in which his left jaw bone and some parts of tongue will be removed. My enquiry is if in future can plastic surgery be done so that he recovers eating troubles and looks ? If yes then please recommend us some. P.S.- MILITARY HOSPITAL WILL ALSO DO SINCE PATIENT IS A ARMY PERSONNEL DEPENDENT.
