Dr Chandran is a board-certified general surgeon with specialized fellowship training in breast surgery. She completed her medical degree at Touro University California, followed by a residency at Henry Ford Macomb and a breast surgical oncology fellowship at the University of Kansas.
Online video consultations with Dr. Rable include reviewing patient reports and developing an individualized treatment plan. The Oklahoma Breast Center utilizes the Doximity dialer video call system. This is a HIPAA compliant, secure service that connects patient and doctor over the internet.
There is no need to install any application on your phone or computer to utilize this service. The video call system also allows family members to conference into the call from a third location to provide additional patient support during consultation.
A followup appointment for a clinical exam will be scheduled to coordinate with any additional consultations that might be required from other providers. This allows some patients to save considerable travel time and expense and still have access to state of the art breast care services.
At The Oklahoma Breast Center we understand that breast reconstruction is not just a procedure, it is part of healing. For women considering reconstruction after mastectomy, DIEP flap breast reconstruction offers a natural, long-lasting option using your own tissue.
DIEP (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator) flap reconstruction is an advanced form of autologous breast reconstruction. It uses skin and fat from the lower abdomen to recreate a breast shape following mastectomy. For many women, DIEP flap reconstruction provides a softer, more natural breast appearance because it uses your own living tissue.

Oncoplastic breast surgery combines the techniques of traditional breast cancer surgery with the cosmetic advantages of plastic surgery. The goal is to remove cancer while minimizing the unwanted effects of surgery, helping patients heal both physically and emotionally. Oncoplastic surgery is most commonly performed in association with a lumpectomy. There are many different oncoplastic techniques depending on the cancer’s characteristics, the patient’s health and body habitus and their desired outcome.
Dr. Rable offers specialized oncoplastic procedures to remove cancer while preserving the breast appearance.
A risk factor is anything that increases your chances of getting a disease, such as breast cancer. But having a risk factor, or even many, does not mean that you are sure to get the disease. Some risk factors for breast cancer are things you cannot change, such as getting older or inheriting certain gene changes. These make your risk of breast cancer higher.
