About Dr. Rajinder Kaur Saggu
Dr. Rajinder Kaur Saggu has been working with breast cancer patients for more than twenty years. And women dealing with this don’t just need medical help, they need someone who gets what they’re going through mentally, too. She works on early cases to really advanced cancers needing complicated surgery and reconstruction work.
Spends time talking about what options are available. She goes over the reports, tells them what stage it’s at, and discusses different ways to do the surgery. She won’t push anyone into deciding before they’re ready. And believes in taking out the cancer but also making sure the result looks okay, which matters when you’re trying to move on after breast cancer.

Patient Experience & Approach
Women say Dr. Rajinder Kaur Saggu actually listens during what’s probably the scariest time in their lives. She doesn’t rush them out and lets them ask whatever they’re worried about. When you just hear you have cancer, she explains stuff without making the fear worse. A lot of patients like that she brings up reconstruction from the beginning, not later as an extra thing. Talks openly about recovery and what life will be like going forward. Her way of doing things makes women feel they’re not just dealing with cancer but also getting back to normal afterward. She even wrote a book on living after breast cancer, which shows she cares about more than just the operation.
