PHILOSOPHY
It is my fundamental belief that everyone should have the care that I would want for myself or my family. As an exclusive breast surgeon for 22 years, and a survivor myself, I have had an active part in the development of breast surgery as a subspeciality. The information regarding breast cancer is robust and often confusing. Understanding your diagnosis and treatment options available is critical in the decision-making process when deciding what is right for you. To this end, my practice is family-oriented so that your support systems are actively involved in helping through this uncertain time.
PERSONAL
Outside of work, Dr. O’Neill is an adventurer. She is passionate about photography and brings her camera everywhere, from camping to hiking and underwater scuba diving. Her traveling goal is to reach and know every National Park and byway. Her family grounds her, and she loves spending time with her boys and daughter-in-law.
