Almost 40, 6 Abdominal Surgeries, 5 C/S - Burlington, ON

I felt very comfortable with all the staff and Dr. Assad.
He asked me very clear questioned, reassured me of any of my concerns and we went over my long medical history. He didn't skip along as if I was fit for a tummy tuck until he physically examined me. Although I am in pretty great shape, he didn't jump to a conclusion based on my appearance. Which I respect in a doctor.
During the simple exam, he felt my stomach muscles and discussed the procedure, used a mirror so I could see where my results would show. Then he concluded that I would have amazing results.
We sat down and he answered more questions and told me my risks. Since I have had 5 c-sections my scar tissue is thick and needs to be removed. No other surgeon told me this. Dr. Assad explained how the scar tissue would make it so my tummy tuck scar would sit slightly lower than my c-section scar and how it will come upward instead of across. Still hidden under non skimpy clothing.
He has been the only doctor who I have felt the most comfortable with. His staff was very friendly and I didn't feel out of place being there.
I reviewed price and had photos taken. Which was very exciting to be moving forward. There was no fee for the visit.
I am 95% sure Dr. Assad will do my surgery. I'm working on dropping 5-10 last pounds before making and booking my appointments. I hope to have a date booked by May 2016.

I have had 5 c-sections and finally decide to seek out the best doctor for my new belly. After interviewing several doctors I decided on Dr. Kyle Wenzal in Toronto and I am so happy i did it.
Day 6 and 7 have been rough as i have been nauseous with the pain meds. Throwing up was torture on the belly and I am hoping my belly button is not damaged from that.
I have not taken my binder off as directed by Dr. Wenzal, so tomorrow i have my follow up and get to see my results. I have been able to sponge bath and wash my hair and even taken a peek at the stitches and it looks great. No hanging skin, its so tight but still swollen.
I will try to keep the pictures and updates coming and i will try to figure out how to post the pictures.

I freaked myself out going into my appointment today.
Since I had not taken off my binder and since I had throwing up sessions the past 2 days, I couldn't clear my head enough to even look at what I assumed was a mess & full of yucky blood.
As my binder was coming off, I started to feel light headed, dizzy, sweating. I told the doc how u was feeling and he reasured me that I was fine & he is there, even got me a glass off water and a facecloth. I could feel him touch my belly and take the gauze out of my button. Gross, I can't even describe the numbness sensation.
Moving on, stitches look great and he said I'm more swollen then the average, could be that I'm doing to much. But not doing damage .
He checked my belly button area for fluid and as he was checking it I was breathing and hyperventilating lol. Pretty pathetic. It was so quiet in the room and all I could hear was my breathing heavy to calm myself down and the thought of a needle being put inside my button running in my head. So during my breathing I softly asked my doctor "can you sing to me?" seriously, I needed a distraction and it was pretty funny that it worked. I laughed and said I was just kidding.
Anyways, no fluid was there and doc was very happy.
Still tonight I was to freaked out to look at my belly button. My husband took a picture for me so I could see the picture after I put the binder on so I didn't faint.
It looks pretty good. It is bruised only where doc. Tried to drain it, which isn't even at my belly button. Lol
I was even able to give my lady part a shave up to the stitches. I feel so much better now!
