How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

day 16 - went clothes shopping today!
I think I may have jumped the gun, butt I got a pencil skirt today that looks phenomenal! So excited! I also got a gray blazer. Pretty excited about that, also!
12 days post op TT and thigh lipo
Okay, so 12 days post op is sooooo much easier. I have been on Advil for a few days now. I was really scared about making the transition from narcotics to OTC meds, but since it gives me the freedom to drive, I am happier. Not that I leave the house much, but knowing I can is a big mental step. I have been getting out every morning to walk a little ways and. That is good. I went to the doc yesterday for my third post op appointment. I have had my drains out since day 4. I never really drained much. Don't know why. If I knew, I would share! I am still not able to cook much because I have a family of 5 and cooking for them results in things too heavy for me to lift. This 5 pound limit really limits what I can fix!
The strangest thing for me now from these procedures is that I know that I am now a skinny person. I went in to this surgery a size 12, and even with all the swelling, I have a size 8 skirt that fits. I have not been able to wear that skirt in at least three years. When the swelling goes down, I imagine I will be a size six. My husband told me I really was the perfect candidate for this surgery since my stomach from the twin pregnancy really made me look and feel large. I am only down about 4 pounds, but the body sculpting has made a huge difference. My doctor really is an artist. I am not sure how it happened, because I did not get any lipo on my back, but my back roll by my bra is now gone also. It might be because I told him to extend my incision (since it will always be hidden so I did not care how long it is). It took care of a few extra stretch marks also! Anyway, I am very happy with my results and I hope you all are happy with yours as well! :-)

Side effect, but not a setback
Hi - okay, so I went to my ps today for my second follow up. He took the stitches out of my belly button. He also changed the tape of my incision. That actually felt quite good. Turns out I have thrush in my mouth from the antibiotic. I can barely eat/swallow, so I ate ice cream for lunch. It was the only thing that did not hurt. Doc gave me a prescription for a pill that should clear it up pretty soon. All the best and happy healing!
Provider Review
I like my doctor. He never makes me feel embarrassed about my body. He is very matter of fact. He perhaps does not have a lot of personality, but I am not looking for a friend, I am looking for an excellent surgeon. He is very serious and answers all my questions and never makes me feel dumb for asking. I respect him very much and feel like he really gets what I am trying to achieve.
