Richard A. de Ramon, MD

Dr. de Ramon is simply the best! He takes his time informing his patients of everything they need to know. He is a perfectionist and he not only cares about how his patients look but how they feel!!!!

I work from home, homeschool five kids, and live more than an hour from the surgery center. I have lived with the pain of the hernia and diastasis recti and the discomfort and annoyance of the extra 'twin skin' for eight years. When the hernia started to worsen this winter, I was dreading the process of finding a surgeon and jumping through all the hoops of scheduling, insurance, etc. I asked my sister, a nurse, if she could find some surgeon recommendations. A fellow nurse was married to an area surgeon and gave several recommendations. She named several general surgeons who she said would take care of the hernia, but nothing else. To take care of all of the issues I was having, she recommended Dr. de Ramon, and added that he did amazing work. I was so impressed from the first visit, and am very happy with the end result. I never thought that I would have a flat stomach after five babies, and carrying a set of twins. But more importantly than that, the pain from my hernia and diastasis is GONE! I can exercise, lift, and live my normal life, only even better. I am so grateful that the surgery was able to include all the procedures at once. If you want it done right -- this is the place!

I had the Inner thighs Smart lipoed in one session and the Outer thighs lipoed in another session about 2 mths. after the first. I feel GREAT! I am only 2 lbs. lighter...but they took off 3 Liters of fat/fluid. I feel firm.....yes, there are some lumps....that DO go away with massage and lots of drinking water or pineapple juice. I'm 43, the mother of 1 and have always had cellulite since my early 20's. I'd do it all over again!Updated on 13 Feb 2011:

I had tummy tuck with muscle repair. The muscle was not repaired properly and continued prominently budging 1-year post op. Additionally, one side of my stomach was pulled tighter than the other side, which left me with an asymmetrical appearance. He said he would fix it, but I would have to pay for "his time". The front office staff here are unfriendly, standoffish. The office coordinator never responded to my email with regard to coming up with an acceptable resolution. Overall, I did not have a good experience and most certainly would not recommend him.
