WORTH IT
I went for a consult in late March, 2015 and have to say that I was really impressed with Dr Weinberg. He was compassionate, easy- going and knowledgeable. Unfortunately I had to wait to hear back about another potential surgery to see when I could do a TT and said I would inform Dr W's office once I had more info. I received a follow up (template) email from his Patient Coordinator/ Office Manager Sandy within a day or two of my visit and then returned an email to her with my results about the other surgery (tumour that would need to be removed within 4 weeks). It is now 3 weeks later and I have heard nothing from Dr W's office despite also having left Sandy a voice mail. Really upset about this as I was pretty set on going with Dr W (although I may need to wait 6 months for my TT). If the follow up is poor in the beginning I would not expect it to be better after I have paid money for the procedure. Not sure why the ball was dropped here but so disappointing that Dr W has his "front line" handled in this way as I got such a great impression of him as a Dr!

My advice would be to go for a couple more consults.  Keep looking until you find the perfect doctor for you.  Customer service is also a very big part of this process.  Let me know how everything is going.

So glad I went ahead and had a couple more consults and found a Dr that I am very comfortable with, along with the Patient Coordinator who has been absolutely outstanding, compassionate and consistent!! My advice to others, trust your instinct- have 2,3,4 or more consults until you find the right Dr/ office. Good luck.

44 Yr Old Mom of 3, Tummy Tuck with Lipo

As with many RS members, this has been a decision I have been contemplating for some time for a problem area (my midsection) that has bothered me for almost 20 yrs. I look at my tummy and love the fact that I have been able to carry 3 wonderful children (24, 9 and 3 yrs). At the same time is has caused me so much anguish. I am ready for this!!

After several consults with different docs (highly recommended, it's a big decision and a huge financial commitment) I chose Dr Kasrai in Toronto. From the point of first contact her patient coordinator Eva (can't say enough wonderful things about her!!!), I knew I had found the right place.
I'm 5'8 and about 25-30 lbs over my desired weight but have been at this weight for 15 yrs (give or take 10lbs) and have always managed to lose the baby weight.
In May of this year, I had a discovery of a large benign tumour which was removed surgically and all is well (thank God). It left me with a very red scar from my belly button down about 6". To me, I am very grateful all went well but this scar just highlights the area I dislike most. Now is the time.
Will post before pics soon. Thanks to all the RS members who have shared their experiences and you are so helpful and forthcoming!!
