Hi, I’ve had consults with several plastic surgeons in my area and believe I’ve made my final decision about which one to go with. What’s the correct process to let the other surgeons know I won’t be going with their office, are there any norms or expectations on this front? Thanks!

Answer: Choosing your surgeon Choosing your surgeon is one of the most critical parts of your plastic surgery journey. You have to feel comfortable with them because they will have your health and results in their hands. Most patients see 2 or 3 plastic surgeons before choosing one. Once you choose one (make sure they are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery), if one of the others’ staff members calls you to follow-up you can let them know you have already booked with another surgeon. Don’t worry, we don’t mind ;)

Answer: Notification You are so thoughtful. Most people would not even think of it. There are no expectations that you explain to the other doctors that you went with someone you are comfortable with.If they follow up with you, just explain that you chose another doctor for the procedure.Hope this helps
