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.

Questions for the Vets and soon to be Dolls
1.What did your doctor say when you mentioned getting plastic surgery?
2. What have you said or what will you say to your boss and/or coworkers once you return to work regarding your new appearance?!
3. Has anyone gotten this surgery that prior to surgery had back issues? (arthritis, sciatica, slipped disk) If so do you think it made your recovery even harder to deal with? Once you healed from the surgery, has your back pain gotten better then it was prior to surgery? Worse? Or stayed the same?

New sx date
I havent done an update in quite some time now so i guess i should let you all know the changes that have occured.
1. I had so much going on the last 6 months that i lost absolutely no weight! Unfortunately I just wasnt in the right head space to do so.
2. So my surgery date has changed as a result from July 6, 2015 to March 24, 2016.
Btw I totally blew it not making the changes I needed to make for my original surgery date of July. It was the perfect timing for having my sx in regards to it not being a burden in anyway on my family. My bestie was going to keep my little ones for those 2wks over their summer break. Now I'll be squeezing my sx in during spring break and i wont be able to stay as long as I'd originally intended to which was 14 days instead of 10.
3. I now have to start all over and send in yet another deposit :(
You snooze you lose i guess. Me losing out on my $350 will insure that i take this weight loss thing seriously now!
4. I think when I'd originally signed up we were allowed to have a bmi of 40. But apparently new regulations require us to have a bmi of 35! SMH. I dont think ive been in that range since middle school. Can you say screwed?!!
5. I also no longer have a primary care doctor. I have to find a new one that im somewhat comfortable with and desk with the awkward situation of telling them that i plan on having plastic surgery and in another country at that! Then i have to hope add pray that they'll give me Rxs for the meds I'll need, and give me a note for work without saying exactly what type of sx I'm actually having!!! Did i mention that i'm part time and have no leave! Lawd, Y'all keep your fingers crossed for me
With all that being said im still determined to do this. I have a alot if things working against me but it high time that i finally do something for myself. I deserve it so now i just have to make it happen :)
