Bremerton Breast Reduction Doctors and Reviews

“Great Work - Tacoma, WA”

I am very pleased with how my surgery turned out. Prior to surgery I was a 36G I was experiencing awful back pain and needed to do something. I was able to go through my insurance company and have them help with the procedure cost. I am still a bit swollen but I believe I will be roughly a 36D now, which excited me! I am 6 weeks post op now, and can't wait to continue my recovery and enjoy my... more

“21 Days Post Op - New Photos”

Like most, since I made the decision to move forward with the reduction, I have been pouring through this site reading everyone's stories non-stop, lol. It has been very informative and a little gruesome honestly, but at least I know what to expect. About me - I am 37, 5' 7" and 155lb. I have wanted a breast reduction since my mid twenties and even went so far as to have a consultation... more

“Up Hill Battle with Surgeons &...”

I found a surgeon in April. Their first request for authorization to my insurance was denied. The surgeons office didn't call me or write me once it was denied. It was denied for a very basic reason, they didn't say how much they were going to take off and didn't did get/send all my medical records. When I called them they said they would call me back to let if the doctor 'wanted' to appeal.... more

“Starting to Raise Money - Seattle, WA”

When I was 12 I had Es and was only 5'0". In the last five years I've grown 2 inches and 4 cup sizes. I am really poor and so can not afford bras in my size. The only bra I have that fits was bought by my ex boyfriend because he wanted me to be in less pain, and it's barely helped. I am about to launch an Indiegogo campaign to raise the money, and am hoping that in 4 months when the campaign... more

“Here Goes Something: Irregular...”

I probably should have joined sooner, I have been reading through the forum here for some time now and am only a few days out from surgery. I just had my pre-op 2 weeks ago and went over everything with anesthesia nurse a few days ago. The nerves are definitely starting to set in. I am sure that this is the right choice for me. Like many other women here, I have struggled with my breast... more

“Glad About my Decision Every Day -...”

When I finally decided to have breast reduction surgery at 45, I was looking for a doctor that could not only understand my issues, but also for someone that I could trust to help with me with no frills. I am so glad that I found Dr. Peters, who provided exactly that. When she told me in the initial consultation that she would tell me if there was something to worry about, and otherwise I... more

“Over the rainbow - 9-week photos”

Hi gals - So amazing to join this team of amazing women who bring so much comfort, education, and support to this very emotional process. I'm having a moment of insecurity tonight (along with probably too may champagnes tonight celebrating summer's final arrival) and decided to join Realself finally. I have read many stories so far and feel very encouraged by all the details shared - with... more

“Looking Forward to The Big Change! -...”

My story is similar to so many that I have read here. I developed early, and can remember having "big boobs" as early as 7th grade. At that age, being overly developed was something to be admired almost. I secretly wished that I wasn't known as "the girl with big boobs" but never shared these feelings. As time went on, my boobs continued to be disproportionately larger than the rest of my body... more

“Excellent Service - Seattle, WA”

“The Results Are Disappointing -...”

I received a breast reduction from dr. Gottlieb in 2004 as a 19 year old. Never did he explain the risks of potentially not being able to breast feel. One breast is considerably bigger than the other. No sensation in one nipple. One nipple is positioned a lot different from the other. He seemed rather aloof, and I wish my 19 year old self would have explored different surgeons. I now at 27, am... more

“Best Thing I Ever Did for Myself! -...”

Best thing I ever did. Surgeon did good job, I recovered fine after two weeks on my back, and life's been better physically ever since. It also kept my breasts perkier so 25 years later, my breasts are in better condition than many women, if not most. Even better techniques for this surgery are available today than they were back then. more

“I'd Do It Again in a Heartbeat -...”

My breasts were far too large for my frame - so large that they measured larger than my hips. I had upper back pain, tense shoulders, pain in my neck, tension headaches, strap indents, not to mention extreme difficulty finding clothes that fit! I'd been seeing specialists (chiropractor, massage therapy, etc) for months prior to surgery to no avail. I was ready for the ladies to go... more

“Recovery Was Not Difficult, and Was...”

I've disliked my breasts forever, but after menopause they became even larger, to my horror. I'm absolutely thrilled with my 32 Ds now! They are perky and I could even go bra-less, if I was so inclined. Dr. Peters is a master at her craft. I totally trusted her going into the process, and I was not disappointed. I believe she has to be one of the very best. For me, there was also... more

“Breast Lift and Reduction, my D+...”

Tired of slogging around my 32F breasts on a fairly small frame, I took action. Dr S understood not only did I want them put back to the place they had started 30 years ago, but I didn't want them to sag again. She agreed they were out of proportion for my frame. I still wear a DD cup but am much higher and perkier. I have a waist again, defiantly took years off my figure and now I... more

“Top Notch! - Seattle, WA”

Although I was in my early 40's, my breasts looked like those of someone in their 60's or older because of sagging. I had very large breasts all my life and always wished to have smaller, perkier breasts. Dr. G did an outstanding job with my breast reduction/lift.  I was a difficult case.  I was a cup size F and had very significant sagging.  I also had a benign... more

“Fantastic Results - Seattle, WA”

I went to dr. G for a breast reduction and ab lipo after several recommendations and viewing his online photos. My results are even more than I hoped for. My scars are hardly visible, and it's only been 3 weeks since the procedure. My breasts look natural, firm and perfect proportions. more

“Listens to What the Patient Wants -...”

I have always felt that my breasts were too large, restricting athletic activities, and not fitting the image of myself I desired. Since my reduction I get comments about looking younger, fitter, and thinner. more

“A Surgeon You Will Like and Trust -...”

This procedure was a bit more expensive for me because I had a significant amount of liposuction done as well. When the insurance company said no, I chose to pay out of pocket. It was absolutely worth it. The best part is all the compliments I am receiving about how much more self confident I seem. more

“Breast Reduction Surgery Gave Me a...”

I decided to begin a low impact exercise regime as I entered my 50's. The pain of the weight and heaviness of my breasts kept me from exercising to my full potential. I then decided to have breast reduction surgery. I was in and out the same day of my surgery. I had very little discomfort. Over the course of 5 days I took a total of 3 Vicodin! The only reason I need the third pill was... more

“THANK GOD!!!! CHANGED MY LIFE!”

I just discovered this forum because I am researching methods to correct undereye skin...but given how nervous I was before my breast reduction ten years ago, and how much I wish I had a forum like this, I just wanted to share my experience in the hope that it will help someone. I was twenty one years old, five feet tall and one hundred pounds. My breasts were a thirty two DOUBLE D. I had... more

“Breast Reduction is the Best Thing...”

First of all, my reduction was performed in October, 2008, covered by insurance 100% except for the cost of some pain medication. My surgeon's office handled all the paperwork. I did have to see my regular doctor once to confirm it was needed and this cost me a $15 co-pay. I think the cost I input was approximately my total out of pocket expense for everything. My pre surgery bra size was... more
