Missys’ Boutique

For many cancer patients and survivors, changes in appearance caused by treatments or surgery pose physical and emotional obstacles to recovery.

An accredited cancer appearance center, Missys’ Boutique® helps overcome those obstacles with spirit and style. Opened in June 2010, the boutique's mission is to help cancer patients and survivors throughout the region restore their dignity, build their self-confidence and reclaim their self-image. The facility is Medicare-approved.

Conveniently located on the main level of the Richard and Annette Bloch Cancer Care Pavilion in Westwood, Kansas, Missys' Boutique features inviting retail space, a salon area and a private fitting room. In a comfortable setting, cancer patients and survivors can consult with a licensed professional, receive services and select products created just for them.

• Breast forms, postsurgery bras and camisoles fitted by a certified fitter
• Wig selection, fitting and styling by a licensed cosmetologist
• Turbans, caps, hats and scarves
• Postmastectomy garments
• Lymphedema sleeves
• Lingerie

Health insurance may cover the cost of a wig, prosthesis or postmastectomy garment – with a doctor’s prescription. For details on coverage, contact your insurance provider before your appointment. We are happy to submit the paperwork to your insurance company for coverage; a doctor's prescription for the item(s) is required. Please bring it to your fitting appointment.
