I am from Canada.. My concern is if needing a blood transfusion and will be getting blood from a different country such in Dominican Republic safe ? from disease's and such
Answer: I'm Planning On Having A Mommy Makeover In Dominican Rep, Worried Of Blood Transfusion, Is It Safe? The Dominican Republic shares the island with Haiti which has the highest HIV incidence in the western hemisphere and DR although not as high is still higher than most countries. How they process their blood supply maybe adequate but there is no real way to know. As other surgeons have mentioned I have never transfused anyone for this operation and I wouldn't even anticipate its need. The fact that you are inquiring about the safety of getting a transfusion concerns me. You should really reconsider the factors that are making you decide to go there for surgery. Good LuckWilliam Aiello.MDNewport Beach CA

Answer: Aren't there excellent surgeons in your country ? Why would you travel to a foreign country to save some money? How are you going to be followed up appropriately? What if you have complications following the procedure. I saw a patient from the DR who landed in my city because she was sick on the plane. She had a good infection and told the nurse at the clinic about her symptoms when she was about to leave. She stated the nurse escorted her to the plane and gave her a prescription for an antibiotic. Research your surgeon and facility's credentials and compare them to Canadian or American standards make sure they are safe.

Answer: I'm Planning On Having A Mommy Makeover In Dominican Rep, Worried Of Blood Transfusion, Is It Safe? I have not had to transfuse a patient after mommy makeover, and if you have concerns you should ask your surgeon. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of mommy makeovers each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
