Chicago Tummy Tuck Doctor Recommendations

Hello, I live in Springfield Il and I am looking for a good Tummy Tuck doctor either in Chicago or the south burbs of Chicago. Any suggestions?

I also want to know how soon after the first appt can the surgery be scheduled. Can I pay for the surgery on the first visit since I already have the money? I have RH negative blood type, would that be a problem?
