“I Couldn't Be Happier! - Baltimore”

The pain was minimal at best. Not what most people have expected me to reply. The 1st 6 days I had very limited use of my arms. The bathroom unaided was the limit. Not because of pain, primarily because of the bandages. I was not allowed to drive for 4 week. My arms have been about the ‘pre surgery’ picture size since my early 20’s. Before surgery we are measured for compression bandages. Well after surgery our new bandages are too big. There were two set ordered, I wish the second set had been a smaller size. I purchased a smaller set at about $65.00.
I wish I’d done this years ago. At 53 years old I am today living my best life minus 112 pounds to date. The old fashioned way too, proper eating and working out. Would I do this again? In a heartbeat and only with Dr. Ricardo Rodriguez.

WoW! You look exactly how I look. I definately need this surgery. Why did you pick the doctor you went with and where did you have the surgery? I live in Burtonsville, MD and am interested in this surgery.

Thanks Lisa,
I had two consultations, his was first. His cost was a little higher but you get what you pay for. I looked at his credentials, the number of procedures he performed and the referrals in his office. This was all prior to meeting him! My first visit left a lasting impression. He has a surgical center on site, an operating room. His passion for what he does speaks to you. I can't begin to tell you about the office staff, a fine tuned team. I have no regrets, healed well and only wish I'd done this earlier! Go for it!

Wow you look Amazing!

Wajeeha, your arms are beautiful. So happy for you! Someday hope to get mine done, but had to work on tummy and thighs first. Your arms are simply breathtaking!
