Consultation review: Not Quite What I Expected - San Antonio, TX

Dr. Young was my very first consultation. I wish I could give a great review like some of his other patients. My consultation was for a implants and a possible lift and I wasn't sure about my stomach if I should have lipo or not. I never took a tummy tuck into consideration because of the downtime. So when I arrived I filled out paperwork and then was taken back to an exam room by a nurse. She talked to me about what size I thought I wanted to be and had me try on sizers. I put my shirt on to see how I would look at said size. And I watched videos on implants and lifts. Dr. Young came in about 5-10 min later. So my entire wait time in the exam room was about 15-20 min. I don't know if that is a normal wait time but it seemed rather lengthy to sit in an exam room by myself. Dr. Young finally came in he looked at the sizers that were put in. Told me what size he was going to put in, and that since one side was larger than the other do a reduction on the larger side. I wasn't thrilled about having a scar on just one breast. But I figured he knows what he's talking about. Then when j asked about my stomach he told me I needed a tummy tuck. I asked if I could get a flat stomach just doing lipo he said yes but I'd have some lose skin. So I opted for lipo of th abdomen. He didn't tell me if be unhappy with the results. But he also didn't take the time to find out what look I really wanted. So he quoted me what I asked for. There really want any interaction. And in the end I felt like I wasted his time and def. my time. If you don't need any questions asked no explanation of anything, and are comfortable having an operation done with no type of exam he's the perfect person to do your surgery. He didn't live up to all the great reviews.

Thanks for sharing your story. Did you end up getting surgery then, or are you still researching doctors?

I did end up getting surgery with another doctor. I've posted a review for him as well.
