The best way to get to know which surgeon is best for you is to ask for referrals from your family doctor, gynecologist, dermatologist, etc, and also ask around from your friends and neighbors and check the internet as well. Usually a couple of names pop up repeatedly as the surgeons to go to from these different resources. Avoid the radio, TV marketing - and yes the medical programs on TV whether it is your local station's health show or CNN are advertising - very much like seeing a Coke can on your favorite show. It is not a coincidence it is just marketing. As far as the top 10 question - here are some: 1. Are you board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery? 2. Do you have plastic surgery privileges at a well respected local hospital? 3.Can I see before and after photos? 4.Can I talk to your previous patients about the surgery? 5.Where will my procedure be performed? 6. Are the facilities you use nationally accredited? 7. Do you use board certified MD anaesthesiologists? 8. Are you easy to get a hold of after surgery if I have questions or concerns? 9. Will I see you during every visit? 10. Where do you get most of your patients from?
