The Courage to Be Me! - Albany, NY

When I first went to Dr. Rockmore, we discussed all of my problem "areas." I had lost a fairly large amount of weight and had extra skin at my inner thighs, arms, and stomach area. Dr. Rockmore informed me of how he could help me with all of them. He said something to me that NO ONE has ever said to me before. He said, "You know you are actually a skinny person once we get rid of all of this extra skin." I knew that I had to get this done and that Dr. Rockmore was the only doctor I wanted to do it.

Over the next few months, Dr. Rockmore took considerable time to discuss all of the pros and cons of the surgeries with me. He made sure I understood that each surgery would be painful and that I would have scars. We planned the surgeries. I got an Extended Brachioplasty and Thighplasty in December of 2012 and then I had the Fleur de Lis (Tummy Tuck) in February of 2013. I recovered fairly quickly from the procedure in December and was back to work in about 2 weeks. The stomach surgery was much more invasive and much more painful.

The first three days were horrible and I was miserable. When I started to feel better, I realized that I couldn't be happier! For the first time in my life, I didn't cringe when I looked in the mirror! I was actually happy! Dr. Rockmore has changed my life! I am now happy and confident and THIN! Thank you, Dr. Rockmore, for giving me the confidence I needed! I would recommend Dr. Rockmore to everyone! (In fact, I already have!)
