May 14, 2012
Asked By:DOING SOMETHING FOR ME in MICHIGAN

I am 2 years out from weight lost surgery and recently had a check up with my weight lost doctor. We discussed a tummy tuck. I recently noticed he is a general surgeon and does great hernia repairs and great weight lost surgerys. I want to know what is the difference and should I be worried? My consult is next week, but I am also having a consult with a PS to be on the safe side.
