New Surgeon and updated photos
$6,800
So I am now having a full tummy tuck with lipo on 7/8 with Dr. Hochstein. I was so nervous having to find another surgeon as Dr Azurin did beautiful work. I looked into many other options and really liked Dr Hochstein his office was very professional and he took the time to call me personally out of state and discuss photos with me. Excited for July to get here. Adding new photos these took a lot to add but produced the courage.

Dr Azurin passed away
I received a call today canceling my surgery. Dr. Azurin passed away three weeks ago and they are in negotiations for a new surgeon. Back to the drawing board.

So sad that Dr. A Passed away - I was considering him also - I'm booked for Dr. Hochstein on May 13th - Wish me luck!! :)

Unfortunately July is the only time I can have the surgery done due to work schedule and child care issues. However I am sure it will be uncomfortable because it will hot. I was devastated to find out about Dr Azurin's death will be having the surgery done with Dr. Hochstein also on July 8th. Good luck can't wait to hear all about your surgery. What did you decide to have done?

Oh well, It's hot, but not impossible!! :) - That's how SowFlorida rules anyway :P - May is my surgery, and it'll be hot too, but a little better than July....- I'm doing BA and TT - I can't wait for us to be done with this!! :) - Good Luck!

Oh, BTW, if you're considering coming to South Florida for your surgery, keep in mind JULY is VERY HOT!!! - It can be a little uncomfortable, even though has A/C everywhere ....

Change in date
This morning I got a call from the surgeons office and they wanted to find out if I had booked my flights yet. After informing them I had not yet booked flights they proceeded to tell me he was not doing surgeries that day and I would need to change the date. I guess it's not big deal and now my surgery has been moved up by a couple of days. Preop is now July 7 and surgery is July 8th. I am so nervous and the surgery is still months away. I feel bad leaving the kids for ten days but I really want to do this for me. Did anyone return home with drains still in that needed to be removed.

By the way you look great. Thank you so much for the feedback on Dr A I've doubted whether or not to go to him since he is out of state for me but I just love the results he achieves.

Hi, I went to Dr. A in Oct. 2013 and I live across the country in CA. I rented a home using homeaway.com .
