Dear Ruth,

Thank you for your post. Many of the larger cancer care centers have appearance centers with specialists in prosthetic fitting and ordering prostheses.

Here are some suggestions.

The best places to look are specialty brassiere shops and of course, Nordstrom has an excellent selection.

Here is a location on 5th Avenue:

Nordstrom
689 5th Avenue, New York, NY 10022
(212) 319-0111

Good luck and be sure to check the yellow pages for 'prosthetics'

Here are a couple of other resources I found:

Beth Israel Cancer Center
New York City, NY
The Roseann O'Donnell Boutique
212-844-8272

ZEUS' FOLLY
800 719-7192
Specializes in breast prostheses and bras for post-mastectomy patients. Located in New Jersey, it offers certified fitters and stocks bathing suits year-round. Medicare- approved. Phone orders accepted.

Hope you find just the right fit!!!
