Elizabeth Chabner - Founder and CEO

Elizabeth Chabner, MD, MPH has devoted her career to taking care of women. After years of treating breast cancer patients as a radiation oncologist, she underwent a double mastectomy, herself and discovered first-hand that the post-surgical recovery bras being used were scratchy, itchy, and inadequate for the modern, cutting-edge surgeries being performed.

In 2011 Dr. Chabner launched Masthead with one employee and the dream of ensuring that every surgical patient would be sent home from the hospital in a soft, comfortable, supportive post-surgery recovery bra. Today, she and her staff of 11 dedicated professionals work every day to improve the experience of women facing surgery.
