"Prior research on CPM decisions suggests that the increase in this procedure is patient driven rather than physician driven.– The current study provides additional perspective on this phenomenon, contributing evidence that women who chose to pursue CPM elect this surgery, at least in part, with influence and support from members of their social networks, including spouses, children, other family, friends, as well as nonsurgeon health care professionals. Surgeons are regarded as neutral providers of options, and media influence is present, but limited."
