So, it's not just important health wise to find a surgeon in your area, but also cost wise since otherwise, you will need to pay a local surgeon for your post operative care. My best,

Answer: Cost of travel surgery Hello, Planning multiple surgeries in Puerto Rico could be a good plan for you if you live there or can stay there for many weeks post op and return for follow up visits. If you rely on paying for follow up care in the United States, you should calculate that cost as well. Overall, it may add up to quite a lot. Depending on the amount/type of surgery you have, you should expect to be followed closely by a Plastic Surgeon- preferably your operating surgeon, for at least a few months.All the best

Answer: Close to home Thank you for your question. The issue of whether you can find a good plastic surgeon in Puerto Rico is not the issue, as I am sure there are qualified well trained surgeons there. The question is if you have a complication, would you be able to easily see your surgeon? Would you have ready access if an issue arises? There is a saying of penny wise, pound foolish, and choosing a surgeon for cost may fit into this category. If you save a few dollars by finding the cheapest surgeon, you may be sacrificing quality of result, but more importantly if something happens you may be spending more traveling back and forth to Puerto Rico or wherever to get the proper care, or end up going to a plastic surgeon near you anyways. Best to establish your care with a board certified plastic surgeon near you so that you can get the best possible care and attention such that you get the best result. All the best,

Answer: Traveling for surgery No, Puerto Rico is not a good place to have plastic surgery. Maryland and the surrounding area is filled with good Plastic Surgeons. SURGERY is not for bargain shoppers. Jane
