Tummy Tuck/Lipo - Chicago, IL

Hi all! Wanted to update...been so busy lately I haven't taken any pics or posted so I thought I would today! I am feeling great...even power walking and jogging. No pain whatsoever! Still a little swollen around hips but Doc said that's ok that I am healing great. I still feel tightness around the middle but again it's normal and there is no pain. I feel like its been forever ago when I was propped up in bed wondering what I had done to myself! Lol. I am so happy with my results and so is my hubby????. Hope everyone else is doing well too!!

After bing medically cleared, Just had TT yesterday 2/4 with Dr. Iteld. I am so happy with my decision to go with him. Dr. Iteld is professional,kind, and has wonderful bedside manner. He made my experience everything I could have hoped for. He is meticulous in his work. We opted to only do tummy tuck duetomy other health issues and we will do the breast lift this summer. My hubby is so impressed with his care of me. (I think he wants to get lipo too!) Dr Iteld sends you go home with a pain pump, which I would suggest to anyone that might go through this or any other surgery. He also makes sure your post op pain is tolerable. The nurse from surgery center even called personally to check on me. All I can say is I am so happy I have Dr. Iteld and I will refer him to all my friends!

I have been considering a tummy tuck for many years now. I researched and interviewed many doctors. When my husband and I met Dr. Iteld, we knew we met the right doctor. He was caring and very informative. I have had previous medical issues (cancer, diverticulitis and a possible T.I.A.) and Dr. Iteld is working closely with me and doctors) to make sure I am ok. I was so excited (and very nervous, too!) to be scheduling surgery (Jan 7, 2013) I was happy that THIS time I would be the one to choose what surgery I was getting and NOT someone elses. Unfortunately, I was not medically cleared. But Dr. Iteld is very concerned about me and my future health and is requesting more testing. If the tests come out good, we will reschedule my tummy tuck and breast lift at a later date. Dr. Iteld is making me feel comfortable and also is pushing me (in a great way) to do something I should had done a long time ago: Go see another specialist to make sure I am in good health for now and the future. I say thank you to Dr. Iteld and Marilyn for her help, too. I am praying for good results from the neurologist.
