I'm a busy wife and mamma to 5 kiddos and over 8...

I'm a busy wife and mamma to 5 kiddos and over 8 years have lost well over 100lbs, leaving me with unsightly loose skin. Over the Fall I was able to take off the last 20lbs, and my husband and I made the decision to begin the plastic surgery process to finish my journey. I had several consults with local surgeons, but when I met Dr. Champaneria I knew he was the one I wanted to fix me up. ;) Dr. C gave me a new hope that I could be that girl I felt like I was. He offered several procedure ideas and was patient with me as I went back and forth in my decision making process. He saw me in his office as much as I needed to help honestly and truthfully guide me to the right decision. What sealed the deal for me was when he shared that he has ocd in the OR, striving for the very best results he can get I connected to that lol! My surgery went beautifully, and recovery was uncomplicated and my pain was managed very well, yet it was still incredibly hard. This is a BIG surgery and when people warn you of the intensity of recovery, believe them. Dr. C and his whole team held my hand every step of the way and see me as often as I need. The support I was given is very comforting and has helped tremendously. Nurse Ashley is amazing, and has been a great resource for me and is a pro at pulling drains pain free. ;) My tummy looks beautiful. I never knew I could look and feel so good. At 5 weeks out my insision scar looks incredible already and I have such a hope for my future now. Dr. C is a true artist, while being very conservative to minimize my pain during recovery. I can't glow enough over him and his whole team. 5 stars all the way.
