About Dr. Schneider
Dr. Schneider graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Yale University. She went on to Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, where she was chosen for the Alpha Omega Alpha and Gold Humanism Honor Societies. She trained for six years in plastic and reconstructive surgery and spent one more year in microsurgical reconstruction at NYU/Bellevue.
Her practice covers reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, with a focus on lymphedema and breast surgery. She specializes in Resensation, a surgical technique that repairs breast nerves. She believes each patient is unique, so she personalizes care.
Her aim is for patients' own choices, not a surgeon's limits, to guide their care. At Yale, she ran Consent, a group for people with concerns about sexual harassment or assault.
