Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I am married and have three children ages: 13, 10, and 6.
I have fought my weight for my entire life. I got up to 297 pounds and refused to cross that 300 mark so I had weight loss surgery. I am down to 190 pounds and have been for about a year. I would like to get lower, but seem to have reached that point where my body is comfortable and will not budge.
I am left with a lot of abdominal fat and skin that also will not budge except to jiggle. My legs look pretty good except at the top of my thighs. My breasts do not bother me, but the fat and skin on the side of my body near my breasts do as well as the jiggle of my arms.
I decided to seek the opinion of plastic surgeons and began my search for a doctor. During my research I came across a review of Dr. Peter Fisher in San Antonio and loved what I read. I called his office and set up a consultation. I was actually amazed at how comfortable I was showing my body to him. He made me feel at ease, impressed me with his professionalism and knowledge, and I valued that.
He suggested a lower body lift, breast lift, arm lift, and spiral thigh lift. I scheduled my surgery that day for August 2014. Personal reasons made me cancel that surgery. I rescheduled for Dec 4 and am now anxiously and nervously awaiting that date.
I am scared. I have MS and though I have gotten clearance from my PCP and my neurologist, it makes me nervous. I keep coming up with reasons not to have the surgery which seem much more legitimate than my reasons to have the surgery. It feels very selfish to me.

Yes or No? Yes or No? I'm still not sure.
I know that ultimately this is my decision, but I asked my husband, my three sisters, and my mom for their honest opinions on whether or not they think I should have this surgery. My husband says that he loves me no matter what and he doesn't care whether I have it or not. My mom says she thinks I am beautiful and the risks involved with surgery are too great to chance, but that she will be there to support me no matter what I decide. One of my sisters who has also lost a lot of weight says that she doesn't really think I need to have it and that if she had my results and my body she wouldn't do it. Another sister says I should see a counselor because she doesn't believe I see myself clearly and that I shouldn't have the surgery. My other sister says I should do it, because if I don't I will always regret it and I have come so far, I deserve to have the body I want. So for asking everyone, I am still unsure.
I will try to get some pictures taken so I can post them up here.

Provider Review
Dr. Peter Fisher is by far the most professional, most courteous, most talented doctor I have had the pleasure of caring for me. He makes himself very available to answer questions or concerns both in pre-op and post-op care. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Dr. Fisher and in fact have recommended him to my own sister.
