I want to see my GP today n he didn't recommend doing it in different states as he thinks if complications occurred or if I need follow up appointments it would be impractical to fly every time n no ps would touch me in Sydney as it was another surgeon's job..is this true..have u had a similar experinece in this website.. thanks

I saw Dr Mark Moore he seemed really caring and gentlemen but such a messy office for a PS !!! Got quote of $7500 for BR and TT with MR without Lipo...then went to see Dr Peter sylaidis..such an amazing luxury clinic, professional nurses and measuring..but absolutely didn't like before and after photos and got so annoyed when I showed him a photo from realself to ask for the same BB n he straight away commented u will never look like her..fair enough but put it in a nice way!!!..so confused as he quote me $9000 for the same procedures

I wanted to cry...in Adelaide they quote me only $6500_$9000..don't know what to do..I booked another appointment to see Dr. Kevin ho but I feel am just wasting time n still can afford it..

wow, how on earth can they do it for $6,00-8,000? is that the surgeon's fees only? Seems way too cheap for Australia :/ and that is tosh btw saying you can't travel 2 hours, are you kidding? I had my first full TT and BA with lift in Malaysia (by an Aust trained and super-highly qualified surgeon in 5* hospital) and I flew 8 hours! If you have complications like infections etc then you are treated here under Medicare. If you are needing more revisions because you are unhappy then you can go back to your surgeon and it will cost you again whether you get it done here or somewhere else.

It is too cheap only in SA..n I was shocked too as Dr Mark Moore only charge$ 6500 before Medicare rebate.. but too scared to get it done far away from home and with no before and after photos.. I know he is a thorough Dr ..but still? So confused n truly don't know what to do ..way to expensive here in Sydney

Did the cheaper quotes include everything like anaesthetic costs and assistant, healthcare fund rebate?
December 28, 2014
Yes it was crazy..anesthesist fees was only $500 in SA for some reason n if I didn't know he was an amazing Dr I would've thought it must be a dodgy work..but Dr Mark Moore when he heard I had c/ section before n it was infected for two months he said to me it would be on my own risk to do it interstate as its common to have seroma, hematoma with abdominoplasty n may miss out the po follow up.. so I rethought it n decided for my family sake to do it in NEW..xox
