After loosing 90 lbs (naturally) I decided it was time to get a panniculectomy. With plenty of research and questions I found that it was right for me.

I have met Dr Smaili and actually came across him by accident in my search.. But found out a few months ago that he performed the tummy tuck on my sister in law who could not stop bragging about the dr, so I believe its fate that I choose him to help me. At the early age of 20 I had a horrble... Read more
