Hello I have made a consultation for Dec 23 of this month for a Tummy Tuck with Dr.Jonathan Saunders out of Newark . My main concern is when I go in for the consultation and for / if I choose him to do my TT surgery how many months am I aloud to go after consultation before surgery ? Could I schedule my surgery 4-5 months after my co siltation with him that day ?

Answer: Scheduling Surgery (TT) Hi, thank you for your question. I recommend that potential clients seek second and third evaluations from board certified plastic surgeons before choosing their physician. Regarding your desire to schedule your surgery 4-5 months out truly depends on your plastic surgeon's schedule. All the best to you!#choosingplasticsurgeon #evaluations #secondopinions #schedule

Answer: Time between consultation and surgery This will vary from practice to practice based on surgeon preference and availability but certainly 5-6 months sounds reasonable. One thing to keep in mind is that patients will typically need a preoperative physical and blood work before their surgery and this needs to be performed in relative proximity to your surgery. Be sure to relay your preference in terms of timing of surgery with your plastic surgeon and he or she can guide you appropriately. Good luck!
