At BII Centers of Excellence, we take your health seriously and refuse to dismiss or underestimate its importance. We understand that despite numerous testimonials from patients suffering from Breast Implant Illness (BII), some medical professionals dispute the connection between implants and the potential detrimental impact on overall health and quality of life. Regrettably, a significant number of patients seeking answers for their persistent symptoms are told that BII is nothing more than a myth, leaving them feeling abandoned, without solutions or hope for improvement.
Our BII Center-certified surgeons embody a level of care, knowledge, and dedication that consistently results in exceptional outcomes. We aim to help our patients regain their sense of wellness and new aesthetic outlook. At BII Centers of Excellence, we provide comprehensive support for patients grappling with BII. Dr. Pryor's highly specialized surgical techniques are the cornerstone of our BII Center Certification. BII Center-certified practitioners are now accessible at select locations in Rockford,Chicago North Shore, and the greater Chicago areas.
