Q: Can the same surgeon perform hysterectomy and Abdominoplasty? asked by Jenigirl California
A:
It's important for a gynecologist to perform the hysterectomy and a plastic surgeon to perform the tummy tuck. While you may find a gyn that says he or she can do the tummy tuck at the same time, I would strongly advise against this-- both procedures require specific expertise, and unless the surgeon has had a full residency and board certification in both (which is extremely rare) they cannot be fully qualified to do both-- it's your body, so be careful with your choice.
