Board certified surgeon Sandra Templeton, MD, a longtime member of the Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital medical staff, is joining Houston Methodist Breast Surgery Partners this month. Templeton specializes in diseases and surgery of the breast and is a well-respected breast surgeon of Fort Bend County. Her clinical expertise includes advanced breast surgery techniques, nipple-sparing mastectomies, skin-sparing mastectomies, oncoplastic procedures and benign breast diseases to include high-risk patients.
The affiliation with Houston Methodist Sugar Land gives patients increased accessibility to the hospital’s outstanding breast cancer team of specialty radiologists, medical oncologists and radiation oncologists and will enhance communication and coordination with her patients’ care team. Templeton’s patients will also have improved access to clinical trials, support groups and the nurse navigator program at the Houston Methodist Breast Care Center at Sugar Land, which assists patients in scheduling and provides ongoing information and follow-up, improving their overall experience.
“I am extremely pleased to be joining Houston Methodist Breast Surgery Partners,” said Templeton. “I truly believe that Houston Methodist Sugar Land is dedicated to providing the best care possible for patients. Lifelong breast care is a foundation of my practice, and being a full-time physician at Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital will allow me to continue to offer the most advanced treatment options and empower my patients by providing a thorough understanding of their diagnoses and treatment plans.”
Templeton is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons and has been a member of the American Society of Breast Surgeons for more than a decade.
