Smart Lipo by an OD Not an MD?

i checked and the doctor i went to see is certified only by the american osteopathic board of surgery. he seemed very nice and i felt comfortable but then alarm bells rang when i did not find his name as a board certified plastic surgeon. he said he is a OD trained in plastic and reconstructive surgery - i have never heard of an OD. Please advise.

A: Smartlipo by an OD

An OD is an Optometry Doctor.  They are eye doctors, but never went to medical school.  Usually they do eye exams and sell glasses.  In almost all states they are not licensed to perform surgery. 

Did you mean a DO (Doctor of Osteopathy)?  DO's can be trained in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.  You might want to find out more about your "doctor".  It is certainly confusing for the public.
