I had an awful experience with my lipo doctor and...

I had an awful experience with my lipo doctor and I didn't do enough research. I paid over $4k for not an inch difference! I wasn't going to make that mistake again. I have been researching doctors and really want to make the right choice the first time. I choose Dr Tholen for my breast augmentation he has nothing but awesome comments from people and I hope I can soon have awesome things to say about him too. I go in for my apt with him tomorrow to pick out everything and discuss concerns. Surgery is on the 24th. More excited than nervous.

Met Dr. Tholen

wow, talk about impressed. Dr. Tholen spent a lot of time talking to me and giving me so much information. Everyone in his office was so friendly in no way did I feel awkward. They even gave me a heavy robe to walk from the exam room to the fitting room. I tried on sizes and the 2nd one was the perfect one for me I just "knew" what I wanted. I go in for my pre-op tomorrow...I'm counting down my days now. I couldn't be more confident i picked the right doctor for me!

4 days and counting

Well I'm super excited for the procedure I picked up meds today so I'm all set! I ordered a zip up bra for when I can start wearing one again. I'm ready to go and so looking forward to some time to sleep. Oh and I put the ice packs in the freezer!

Dr. Tholen spent over an hour talking to me about questions I had, helping me to be "informed" about surgeons and just to plain make me feel comfortable. He has amazing staff in his office as well. The only thing I wish is that I was able to email his scheduling staff women named Sarah. She is difficult to get in touch with and I'm a teacher so I'm constantly playing phone tag. I forgot to ask some questions to her that Dr. Tholen and I discussed but of course when I met with her I forgot, now I'll be back to playing phone tag next week. I can't wait for my surgery its in 1 week. He encouraged me to stop by to try on again size-rs and and bring my husband by as well. I didn't think it was possible to be so impressed with someone in the medical field at a first visit. I can't wait to see what I look like when my surgery is completed. I feel confident I made the right choice in doctors.
