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.

Spitting Stitch!
OMG! I was so not ready for the PS to get that stitch out when I went in for a small area of inflammation just now. In my mind, they were just going to give me some antibiotics and send me on my way. Uh, not!!! The PS numbed me (sort of), got that scalpel out, cut it, got tweezers down in there, pulled the stitch out some and snipped - whoa. This sista got light headed! I'm glad to have it taken care of, but that was an experience I was not ready for. Deep breaths.
3 weeks and counting
This has been a crazy ride, but I'm finally starting to see what I've been waiting for. As far as pain, the tummy tuck isn't so bad except for a pulling sensation at the very middle of the scar (it makes me check that nothing pulled apart - but all is well) and an occasional spasm-like pain in the belly. There's still swelling around the incision, but they say that's normal. I've begun to go on "brisk walks" for about two miles and I survived. It feels good to move again. Now on to the lipo...it is still SORE! I did not think the inner thigh lipo would be what bothers me most right now, but it does. It's still a little more swollen than I'd like, but I'm going to be patient. All in all, the new body is bangin'!!! Tomorrow I'm trying the stationary bike - praying that my inner thighs can hang in there. Stay tuned.
Drain is gone!
I got my drain removed on Wednesday and I couldn't be more excited! Although it was just one, it annoyed me to no end. Things are coming together. I can stand upright, I have an appetite again, and I can stand an sit (from bed or toilet) on my own. Seriously ladies, once you get through the first 3-5 days, things turn around quickly. I still take it super slow though, I do not want to be a statistic. I've been drinking a beer/carrot/sweet potato/banana smoothie in the morning and sodium free soups at night, so swelling has been minimal. Hang in there ladies, this won't last forever!
Provider Review
Dr. Singh is a calm presence through this journey. Nicolette is my coordinator and she is just awesome. She's super responsive and friendly. I've only met with Dr. Singh once, but his credentials and demeanor have put me at ease. More to come soon.
