Description
Dr. Michalina Kupsik is a fellowship trained breast surgical oncologist. She completed a general surgery residency in Chicago, IL during which she completed over 200 breast specific surgeries, trained under mentors who were involved in innovative breast cancer care, and was involved in research pertaining to diseases of the breast. Dr. Kupsik then completed a breast surgical oncology fellowship at the University of Arkansas. There she learned axillary reverse mapping (ARM), a technique aimed at decreasing the risks of lymphedema, which she offers to all eligible patients. In addition to performing ARM, she is passionate about applying individualized lymph node care to decrease the risk of lymphedema. Fellowship training also advanced her ability to perform complex oncoplastic techniques for lumpectomy and mastectomy patients, an approach to breast surgery that emphasizes superior cosmetic outcomes. For patients undergoing mastectomy, Dr. Kupsik is trained to offer aesthetic flat closure for a more functional incision. For breast reconstruction, she works closely with plastic surgery. Dr. Kupsik also completed advanced training in ultrasound-guided procedures. Dr. Kupsik is passionate about staying current with the newest treatment options for breast cancer treatment. She believes that all patients deserve the highest quality of treatment and should have their options thoroughly explained. An open line of communication and understanding a patients’ concerns from the very first visit is key for building trust and creating an environment of healing. In her free time, Dr. Kupsik enjoys traveling, exploring the outdoors with her dog and learning how to cook new and unique dishes. Dr. Kupsik is fluent in Polish, both written and spoken.
