"I am honored to be able to help women through a most vulnerable time in their lives. Their courage, persistence, and strength are inspiring."

Lauren B. Shikowitz-Behr, MD

Dr. Lauren Shikowitz-Behr is passionate about supporting and empowering patients before, during, and after breast reconstruction surgery. She is a board-certified plastic surgeon who has trained in the most up-to-date reconstruction techniques.

Inspired by the women she helps, Dr. Shikowitz-Behr is dedicated to providing the best possible patient experience. She shows great compassion for her patients, and her warm demeanor helps women feel supported in even the most challenging circumstances.

Dr. Shikowitz-Behr routinely gives back to her local community and has volunteered at the Cystic Fibrosis Center at St. Vincent’s Medical Center. A natural leader, she also co-founded Teens Against Cancer (TAC), to raise funds and awareness for cancer.

She is proud to be a part of the Friedman Center and to represent the future of breast reconstruction and patient-focused care.

“Dr. Shikowitz was just amazing. She listened to me, took her time explaining & has exceptional bedside manner!”
