I needed to have abdominal surgery to remove my ovaries, and had an interest in having an old and ugly appendix scar corrected at the same time. My surgeon recommended Dr. Forman to me and I am so very glad that she did. Dr. Forman suggested that I have a mini tummy tuck rather than simply a scar correction, which meant that in addition to eliminating the ugly scar, he removed excess abdominal skin without cutting into the abdominal muscles.

Dr. Forman and his staff were extremely thorough in explaining all of the options as well as the detailed financial implications for each option. They listened to my needs and were extremely responsive. The office is run very professionally; the nurses and assistants were all very nice, helpful and competent. All in all, I felt very well cared for by Dr. Forman and the entire team, through every stage in the process. I am very pleased with the results, in fact they have exceeded my expectations. The scar is very minimal and my belly is flatter than it has been in a long, long time, and I didn't have the long recovery that is usually associated with a full tummy tuck.
