This process has been amazing! The office staff and Nurses are beyond professional. On the day of my surgery, I felt as if I never left my home. They are very warm, compassionate, gentle and knowledgeable. They accept my calls and respond to my emails quickly! Thank you Linnea, Tiffany, Shannon, Dr. Basu!
They even took good care of my very nervous husband. Anyone who can handle my husband in a hospital setting deserves a raise! :)

How was your pain

March 24, 2016
The day of surgery, I was very comfortable. I had absolutely no pain. I was given the Exparel injection, which gave me a numbness in the tummy for 72 hours. When I would walk around my home from the restroom, to the kitchen, checking on my kids - my back would hurt from not being able to stand straight. The incision or drains gave me no pain whatsoever. However, the drains were totally annoying. :(

Pictures of Dr. Basu's work
I decided to add a photo of the morning, 3 hours before surgery so that everyone could see the reason I opted for a TT. I also added a photo 9 days post-op when one drain was removed. As you will see Dr. Basu did an amazing job! He removed a total of 2lbs of skin. No lipo was needed. My belly button is still healing. Will post more pictures later.

Hello from NW Houston! :) Your belly looks great! I'm about a year away from a TT, but I've been researching docs. Did you interview anyone else? I'm thinking I'd like to talk to Dr. Gill as well as Dr. Basu. And there's another one in the Katy area that gets good reviews- Dr. Newall, I think is his name. Just wondering, if you did consult with other docs, what made you decide on Dr. Basu? You can send me a PM if you'd feel more comfortable with that. Thank you!

Hi! Thank you! I had actually considered Dr. Sugene Kim in the Woodlands. I had a friend who went to her for a TT. She does amazing work as well. I highly recommend Dr. Basu. His staff is amazing, he has great mannerisms and is always very personable. He never rushed, which means a lot to me.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It would be great for the community if you could give us a little more detail about your procedure, like why you had it done, your tips for getting good results, and pros/cons on the whole process.
