WORTH IT$5,400
I have wanted a breast reduction since I was 23 after the birth of my amazing daughter. I wear a 36DD Bra to would like to be a C cup (Small or Mid C cup).
So I officially started researching BR in 2010. I decided to save in 2013 after visiting my aunt in Florida and seeing how amazing she looked after implants.
After interviewing 4 doctors and reading countless reviews on real self I decided to choice Dr. John Michael Thomassen MD. Since I am from the Caribbean, I did a virtual consultation via emailing and the office responded promptly to all my email and within 2 days I got all my questions (all I had at the time, I have more) answered, was given a quote, paper works to fill out and a potential surgery date.
I am traveling on 25th June 2015 to Florida for 6 weeks, so I want to do surgery in June in order that sufficient time can be spent with the doctor post-surgery. Once I pay 20% of the surgeon fee I would lock in the 29th June 2015 as the surgery date for my long awaited BR.

Hello all, just some updates. So my date is booked 29 June 2015 and i cannot wait exactly 5 weeks and 5 days away.
I have gotten my prescription for tests to be done. BPB, CBC with differential, PT/PTT, Urinalysis, Unrine Culture & Pregnancy Serum
I have an appointment on 8th June 2015 to get these tests done, it takes 2 days to get back results. Also the Michelle, Dr Thomassen's practice coordinator email me some vitamins & supplements to take 2 weeks before surgery (Vitamins C, Bromelain and Probiotic) Has anyone been taking these? oh i am supposed to stop all other vitamins 2 weeks b4.
Just a reminder, i am from the Caribbean travelling to Florida to get this procedure done. And Dr Thomassen and his staff has been in constant communication with me via emails and or telephone calls. I haven't actually met them yet but i am impressed with the level of communication thus far.
