Consultant Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeon

Anca Breahna PhD, MSc, FEBOPRAS, FRCS (Plast)

Anca Breahna is a well-established, highly regarded Female Plastic Surgeon based in Chester, specialising in the field of Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery. One of the very few female Plastic Surgeons in her region, she is able to offer that unique female perspective, with empathy, attention to detail and highly personalised care.

TRAINING

Miss Breahna’s surgical training has been largely undertaken within the United Kingdom. She began a rigorous training programme in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in 1999, after achieving her medical degree from the University of Bucharest. Miss Breahna attained her PhD degree at the same university in 2007 for her medical research in microsurgical free tissue transfer. She then relocated to the U.K to further extend her qualifications and training.

Miss Breahna has completed Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic fellowships in International Centres of Excellence at St. Andrews Centre for Plastic Surgery and Burns in Chelmsford, Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, Royal Free Hospital in London and John Hunter Hospital in Australia.

AWARDS & FELLOWSHIPS

Her extensive training has been awarded with the fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons (FRCS Plast), the Fellowship European Board of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (FEBOPRAS), the Post Graduate Diploma for Hand Surgery at the BSSH (British Society for Surgery of the Hand) and a Master of Science Degree at the University of Manchester and she is on the GMC Specialist Register for Plastic Surgery.

First appointed as Consultant Plastic Surgeon in 2016 at the world renowned Pulvertaft Hand Centre, Miss Breahna has the honour of being one of just a handful of Plastic Surgeons in the United Kingdom to hold both British and European Diplomas in Hand Surgery, as well as the BSSH MSc in Hand Surgery.

Miss Breahna is currently a Consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at the Countess of Chester NHS Foundation Trust, a post she has held since 2018, and also holds practising privileges with a cosmetic surgery clinic in Chester at Nuffield Health The Grosvenor Hospital in Chester and Spire Murrayfield Hospital in Wirral.

In addition to her clinical practices, Miss Breahna also trains other plastic surgeons across Cheshire and Merseyside and has been invited as faculty at various recognised institutions having also presented both Nationally and Internationally since 2005.

Whilst her NHS practice is focused on Breast Reconstructive Surgery (after Breast Cancer treatment or congenital asymmetries), Skin Cancer Surgery, Hand Surgery and reconstruction of soft tissue defects post-injury, Miss Breahna was drawn to Aesthetic Surgery due to its unique challenges and opportunities.
