Out of town BBL patient: I have no one to take care of me post op.

Question

I'm trying to do my homework? I'm a single woman with no family or friends in the area. I wan to go to Dallas to get surgery and but I have no one to take care of me post op? How do I find a recovery center/house? There are no doctors in my town that do BBL's so staying in town is not an option and i have no one to go with me. Do Dr's have options for patients with situations like this. thanks for any advance you can give.

Thank you for your question. I would urge you strongly against traveling for surgery. I have provided you a link to board certified plastic surgeons in your area and I would find it hard to believe that if you have called everyone on that list, none of them offer the BBL procedure as it is one of the fastest growing procedures in plastic surgery. Unless you have exhausted all the names on that list, then you have not done your homework and need to do more research.Hope this helps!

Dear imadiva247,most plastic surgeons have a provided care for patients which travel from distant locations. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

I have nursing available to help take care of my out of town patients.  They provide individual care.

There usually are post-op recovery centers in most cities. You may check with local plastic surgeons for suggestions. You can even try a local hospital for suggestions. You can also call your operating surgeon in Dallas for suggestions. Good luck!

In my office, we can provide you with a nurse to go home with or stay in a hotel during your recovery period.  Check with your doctor.
