After much research and several consultations, I chose Dr. Karcutskie to perform my thighplasty. After surgery when I was young and significant weight loss over the years, I had a lot of excess hanging skin. He is incredibly thorough, patient, and honest. Dr. Karcutskie takes the time and makes himself available beyond the consultation to ensure all of your questions are answered. He does not push unnecessary procedures, unlike other doctors I met with. I am a very active person, and aside from his credentials and demeanor, as a runner, he understood how important it was for me to get back to activity as soon as possible. Dr. Karcutskie builds a trusting relationship with his patients, so going into a major surgery, I had little anxiety. He is down-to-earth and personable, making it easy for my husband to ask questions and feel comfortable at every appointment. My recovery was easier and quicker than I had anticipated. Although I am only five and a half weeks post-op, I am pleased with the results and have been cleared for all activities. He did a fantastic job, and my incisions cannot be seen from the back or front. I am excited to see the full results in five months. Dr. Karcutskie truly changed my life. He is a talented surgeon, and I appreciate his easygoing personality and caring bedside manner. I cannot recommend Dr. Karcutskie enough for any procedure you are considering.
