How on Earth Did You Finally Pick a Doctor!?!

WORTH IT$20,000
I am really struggling settling on a doctor. I’m closer to Indy, but have found a couple Chicago doctors I like. A couple in Indy too. All I am looking at have appropriate credentials, so just trying to narrow down by “style”. Also wondering if I Am I crazy to go 3 hours away for such an invasive procedure? How did you finally narrow down and pick a doctor? The Brest lift portion is very important to me so I have been looking at a ton of pics of those, but need to just pick a doctor already. Any advise appreciated.

I finally narrowed it down to 3 doctors and have consults scheduled. I have wanted to do this for as long as I can remember and I always somehow manage to talk myself out of it. I am so excited to meet the doctors I have chosen. This was the hump that I couldn't seem to get over previously, but now it's moving, no stopping now. Hoping once I decide, I can get my date in December. That is critical in allowing me to do this.
Docs I picked if anyone has any knowledge on any of them:
Dr. Placik - Chicago
Dr. Shifrin - Chicago
Dr. Wagner - Indianapolis
Thanks!

I'm excited for you! It was hard for me to get to actually booking a consultation too! I researched and thought about it for years and also tried to talk myself out of it. Congratulations on choosing your surgeon and scheduling your surgery!

Thank you! They needed up moving it up a week to December 7th so it’s getting close! I am trying to get all my Christmas shopping done before the end of next month so lots to do to keep me occupied until then!

oh ya that will keep you busy on top of all the other prep to do so you can take a couple months off to recover!

I went for my consult with Dr. Placik, and I knew within the first 5 minutes that he was going to be my doctor. He was great. Very honest and direct, which I really relate to. I felt completely comfortable with him and his nurse. I scheduled a extended tummy tuck, lipo, breast lift with an ideal implant. I am so excited. I need to try to loose a couple pounds so I can have a little more loose skin on my abdomen before December. I may need the separate incision for my existing bellybutton since it is freakishly high LOL. Hopefully creating a little more lose skin, will help eliminate that possibility. Everyone in his office was very nice and they were all patient with me and all my questions. I never felt rushed in any way.
