I live in Houston and I figured we were known for great plastic surgeons... Apparently not. I researched many docs here and none of their pics were appealing until I found Dr.J and Dr. S. I chose to go to Dr J becuz I have ppl who will allow me to stay with them. I'm 5'0" 190lb. I'm not even sure he can help me. I may have to lose more weight. It's worth a shot! The next consultation appt is AUG 2013! I don't want to wait that long!!!!help

I too live in Houston and I am seeking a great plastic surgeon for a BBL. I set an appt for a consult with Dr. J but, it is not until August 2013! Who is Dr. S I may need to look at his photos and reviews to get it done sooner.

Dr. Salama is his name and he is in Florida… I have been researching him too and I am super hesitant being that he has had some bad reviews regarding fullness. I wouldn't dare go to a Houston surgeon, they probably wouldn't understand why I would want a bigger butt. lol

Girl I need to lose weight for real. I have two kids and my stomach is ugh. lol. I have the consultation in Aug 2013 and that so far away that I am thinking maybe I should focus on losing weight until then.
December 12, 2012
go for what you want SiStar ;-) Go for whats good for YOU...Dr Jimerson told me that when I come in to surgery I should be 10 to 15 lbs over MY goal. My goal is 165 so I am tracking on the results I want. I just don't want to get there and my "Army booty" is too hard for him to give me what I want. He told me that Army girls tend to have hard booties :-( Is that the earliet consult he had for you? I waited 2 months for mines. I guess he is getting supper busy. My husband said he has heard of him before.

HEY SISTAR!!!!! I don't know about the Aug 2013! The girl I talked to said the consultations were booked! I am super frustrated. Army booties don't mean much if he is an expert then he should be able to work with any type of body. I think as long as you have fat to harvest you are good. What day, time, etc did you call them? I just can't believe I have to wait so long.
December 13, 2012
I booked my consultation in April and my consultation was at the end of August. I was shocked I had to wait that long. I your date got you pissed. Try to to call and ask if they can have you on standby incase anyone cancels and or can't be reached. Maybe that will help. And about the hard butt....he said if your butt is too hard he won't be able to fit as much fat under the skin because if he over stuffs it the fat cells will die...

Your plan sounds good. August will be here b4 you know it.... It's a birthday month for me and I already feel older lol.... Anyway, hopefully I made you smile. Keep pushing forward and you can always speed up that consult date with a deposit on your surgery. My original consult date was 8/3/2013 and I am having surgery on 1/15/13 :)

Hey I'm in Houston too...Booked with Dr Salama for next year but I been contemplating Dr Cortez too. How you feel about him??

I have a consultation with dr Cortez he seems legit it's just he makes it clear that he might not be able to get a lot of cc's into butt...

Wait for what you want. If you settle you will regret it later. It's like skimping on options in a new car. You always regret it later!

GM BBL sisters! I have a consultation with Dr. Campos this afternoon at 1pm. I decided to see what he has to talk about concerning the surgery. I haven't had much luck with the Jimerson crew! I have contacted the office and left several messages for Aziza and offered to pay my $500 plus 10 % of my sx cost, but no one has called me back AT ALL!!! Still have the consultation for Aug 2013, but I decided to go see Campos since he is in my city and never know what could happen!

Hey texasgirl79 and newbooty13! I can understand your frustration, but I agree that you should definitely go with who you really want! Dreamin' is right, if you settle, you will regret it later. It's your body! In no way am I trying to throw shade on anyone else's work because there are certainly other doctors besides Dr J that can do this procedure, but you chose him for a reason, so don't let a minor road block get in the way of that if he's who you really want to see. Here's my suggestion if you really wanna see Dr J... If you are confident that he's the one for you, you should call the office until you get through to a patient coordinator. Yes, their lines are busy and sometimes you may have to call a few times back to back, but there are four of them - Aziza, Monica, Michelle, and Shelly. When you call the office number, press 2, and then press 1,2,3,or 4 to get directed to the patient coordinator lines. Leaving them a voicemail is NOT the way to get through to someone! Aziza told me that they regularly have like 100-200 emails and voicemails, so it takes a while to get back to everyone and still handle all the daily calls. If you are prepared to pay your $500 deposit, they will find a way to move your consultation up. I'm going to Dr J on Feb 14th!! But getting that date took some work. I called in late October for a consultation and they gave me the date of April 10, 2013. I was so sad because I'm like wow, I wanted to get my sx by that time! I went to another consultation elsewhere and considered getting my sx there, but I knew I really wanted to see Dr J! I called back on November 21st and stayed on the line until I got through to a coordinator, and I explained my dilemma with school and other things, and that I was sure I wanted to see Dr J, but that I needed to come sooner. They squeezed me in for a consultation on Dec 12! Went to that, paid my deposit and got scheduled for sx on April 15, 2013. Cool, so now my sx was scheduled for 5 days after when my consultation would have been! I got on RS and networked with many ladies, and eventually found someone who needed to switch, so I took her date of Feb 14 and she took mine of Apr 15. So basically, getting an earlier consultation is based on getting through to the coordinators, and things change EVERYDAY so don't be discouraged! People cancel or reschedule regularly because of baby-sitting issues, money issues, work or school issues, or simply a change of heart… Dr J is so worth it! So if you wanna work with him, just know that a little persistence goes a long way. Sorry for rambling ladies lol! Good luck!

Been looking at a doc here in NY and even been thinking about purchasing someone's date who's selling for salama. Just cause i dont wanna wait. But Thanks for putting me back on track. Will be calling until I get moved up! Hugs*

No problem girl! I also battled between Jimerson and Salama. They both are really good, but in different ways. My friend went to Salama and she looks amazing! Despite that, I still just felt that Jimerson was the one for me. I admire the work that both of them do though.

I am so happy that you are getting results. I have called them each day last week and still no avail!!!

Good luck with your search. I am 5 weeks and 2 days post op. I went with Salama I'm out here in San Antonio and the plastic surgeons suck out here and in Dallas. I was also looking into Cortez but also felt like he would be too conservative with cc's. I waited 6 months for my surgery day with Salama. I'm very impressed with my results. One thing about Salama is that he is so aggressive with lipo... no lie. He's amazing at what he does. I'm happy with the choice that I made. Will be going back in a year and half to 2 years to get my tummy tuck :) Good Luck Ma!
