Wednesday's Assignment

Do you like the way you look? What could you do? What kind of healthcare practitioner could help your looks? According to the first paragraph of this article, can you pay for cosmetic surgery using your health card?

Here are your tasks:

1. Check out this article on an expensive procedure:
1.  mastectomy (removal of the breasts)

                    2. chest contouring (providing a more typically male chest shape)

                      3. hysterectomy (the removal of internal sex organs).

1. From the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs (beginning "Marcel ..." and "By 2012"), what specialists might be involved?

                         Bilateral mastectomy

1. Find the dollar values in the article and identify the various costs.

                         Top and lower surgery can cost upwards of $8,000 and $100,000 respectively (though the costs                            fluctuate depending on the surgeon).

1. Role play with a partner: Getting Plastic Surgery
