Could not have made a better choice for my plastic surgeon

ORIGINAL POST

No Better Surgeon!

WORTH IT
In June of 2022 I saw Dr. Patel for a full tummy tuck and breast lift with Mesh. I was 5’2” 120 lbs when I got pregnant, so after my two pregnancies, babies that weighed over nine and ten pounds, and breast feeding for a collective of five years, there was a lot of correction needed. I had an 11cm separation between my abdominal muscles and it was causing a lot of lower back issues. I also had symmetry and volume concerns with my breasts. I met with multiple surgeons before deciding that Dr. Patel was the best and only option for me. To begin, he has hundreds of 5 star reviews, a highly impressive education, and his online presence was void of your typical plastic surgeon sites- no gimmicks, no mass number of before and after photos, etc. It was professional and I could tell the ratings were based solely on his medical ability and accomplishments. The first time I met with Dr. Patel he gave me his personal number so I could reach him with any questions. The level of trust that he established right off the bat was critical in me making my choice. He listened to and understood my surgical goals and concerns. Being a mother, safety was an especially big consideration for such an extensive surgery. To help keep the amount of time under anesthesia at a minimum, Dr. Patel used a second Board Certified Plastic Surgeon rather than a Surgical Assistant.

Following the surgery, Dr. Patel was always available to help with any concerns I had. The first few days of recovery were rough, but he made time to see me right away to ensure everything was healing properly. He also provides at no additional cost a medical concierge service through Pear Health. Leena was my contact here and checked on me regularly. She was also able to quickly and efficiently address and questions or concerns that I had. Dr. Patel also recommended the services of a lymphatic massage therapist, Florentina Gonzalez. She has been crucial to my healing and I highly recommend using her post surgery, or for any other medical issues. She still comes to my home weekly (almost 2 months post op) and works on my stomach and breasts to ensure there is no build up of fluid or scar tissue.

This was a major surgery and the healing process has been long, but I could not have made a better choice for Plastic Surgeon. Dr. Patel, thank you for such a high level of professionalism, care, and compassion!
