For the very first time during my 'journey', I find myself actually wanting to move forward with surgery. I have had months to prepare for this. I have had 3 total consults. I have had numerous doctors respond to my RealSelf pictures/questions. The one person's opinion that I wanted the most was Dr. Cabbabe. Call me crazy for trusting a complete stranger to decide what I need and why, but I just do. I have been following him on Instagram over a year, and I just have to say his work is brilliant. You can tell he doesn't run his practice like a factory. Each and every one of his patients gets his undivided attention and thorough work up. I was very impressed he was willing to do a virtual consult, and on a Friday evening, and free of charge. This blows my mind! He communicated with me so well leading up to our consult. I appreciated every message he sent. He was very kind, funny, and intelligent during our consult. He never made me feel like he was pitching me a sale. He talked to me as a nurse and used basic terms so my husband understood what was going on. I can't express how happy I am with this consult.
Update...the face to face was even better. This was a no bullshit consult where I got nothing but the honest truth. I look forward to the results I will get with this provider.
