How do other doctors look at Liposuction patients?

June 12, 2022
Asked By:richardrogers in New York, New York

If I get Liposuction and after 1-2 years visit another doctor for a general body checkup or for example for something like stomach ache/upset or indigestion issues, would the doctor be able to make out that I had Lipo done in the past? And do other doctors look at Lipo as a scapegoat? For example: Would a General Practitioner or a gastroenterologist say something like "Your XYZ health issue is because you got Lipo done" ?
