random thoughts:
I shoulda NEVER brought my husband to consultation. I thought taking him would ease my nerves! WRONG. he made it worse. He didn't say anything during visit but his body language really had me nervous. Shoulda left his a$$ at home.
Koffkoff is very straight up. honest. to the point and matter of fact but still very polite and has a very calm spirit which I like. He also has a sense of humor.
My MAIN fear is losing feeling in my nipples. VERY TERRIFIED about this. I'm not getting implants. Terrified of those foreign objects being in my body. Instead, i'm getting "modest" breast reduction and left. I'm scared to lose feeling because it is a big part of my sex life. There is no point in getting my boobs adjusted if the man can't even use them right?? RIGHT! I hope to JESUS, MOSES and MARY that i do not have permanent loss of feeling or numbness because I would be DEVASTATED and it would NOT be worth the procedure. This fear still has me on the fence on whether I even want to mess with the boobs at all. Still debating. I have until march 5 (pre op date) to decide. I have one month left until the date! I hope the nerves don't stop my heart before that time!
ONE MONTH LEFT to go...
Tomorrow is the big day...
Provider Review
Let me first say that I'm writing this review of Dr. Kotfkoff 10 weeks after MM. I wanted to write the review after I have had several conversations and meetings with him before, during and after this process. Thankfully this has been nothing but a positive experience. The first time I thought about getting a MM was in Oct 2014 and then I found this website. For some reason, I kept coming back to Dr. Kofkoff profile. I guess I kept coming back because it was too perfect and there weren’t any negative reviews, all five stars and that made me think it was fake. You never know with the internet. I went to a few other docs profiles and their practice websites but for some reason I kept coming back to his. When I finally decided to get consultations in Jan of 2015, I first reached out to a fellow real selfer who had similar body type to myself and had gotten her MM through Dr. Kofkoff. I liked her pictures and results but wanted to know about the doc himself. She told me that she went on 4 consultations and decided to go with dr. K. for a variety of reasons that made sense to me. So I made my first consultation with him instead of another doc. My husband came along with me and it was a very pleasant experience. I think I was in the office for almost two hours. He answered each and every question in detail. He was matter of fact about his answers but he also never promised anything. He was honest and polite and funny and just a pleasure to speak to. The best thing that he said during consultation was that he thinks that he works slower than the average surgeon which I personally liked to hear because I wouldn’t ANYONE rushing on my body! After leaving his office that day, I told the husband that I felt like I had to visit other doctors out of obligation because that’s what you should do. But he encouraged me to go with Dr. K, if I had a good feeling about it. He felt like Dr. K was a good option too so we started the ball rolling. Teresa, his coordinator, was AWESOME as well. She always answered the phone, answered emails and was just very helpful and sweet through the whole process. I changed the dates on her more than a few times and she never seemed bothered by it. She was very accommodating. I was also able to come in a couple more times before my surgery when I had more questions. And when I couldn’t come in or had a quick question that didn’t require my body to be looked at, they scheduled a call for all my questions to be answered. Right before I went under and when Dr. K came to check on me after surgery at the surgery center, he was his usual pleasant and calm self. I just like his energy. It’s a very positive and relaxing one. And when you are doing something THIS major, it’s nice to have a doc that makes you feel at ease. I am VERY PLEASED with the whole entire experience with Dr. Kofkoff’s office. From the consultations, to the surgery, bed side manners, post op care and most importantly, the RESULTS. He has a gift and he is very good at what he does. He is also confident about what he is doing and I can tell that by the way he discusses everything. Some surgeons are great at making you looking good in the end but don’t really do a great job of making you feel good about the whole process. Some make you feel like they are frustrated with all the questions, like your questions may be redundant or they have to rush through conversations. I’ve had doctors interact with me like that. It was important FOR ME that I got a competent, qualified, skilled, experienced surgeon who also seemed like a good person in general. I feel like that’s exactly what I got. A good over all surgeon. In more ways than one. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. KofKoff and feel fortunate to have been in his care.
