Where Expertise Meets Exceptional Bedside Manner

Although I'm technically still early on in the process, I feel as if this review is long overdue. My breasts were a source of significant insecurity for me since I was old enough to realize that they were abnormal, and likely would remain that way unless I pursued surgery. About a year and a half ago, I started researching and learned about constricted/tuberous breast deformity. Finally, I found a term for what I had been dealing with! I continued researching the condition and procedures to treat it, and began booking consultations with surgeons with experience treating it. Although there are many talented plastic surgeons in the DC metro area, I instantly felt the most comfortable with Dr. Tattelbaum. I also found his website to be a wealth of information, which helped me to feel more prepared going into the consult. He recognized my condition right away, and recommended an augmentation to round out the shape, as well as a mastopexy to correct the nipple position and shape. I didn't want a very large increase in size, which Dr. Tattelbaum agreed with, and helped me to find an implant size that suited my body the best. Throughout the process, Dr. Tattelbaum gave me realistic expectations of the results I could expect, and potential hurdles I could run into. I really appreciated his honesty, and I booked the surgery shortly after that. The surgery itself was a breeze, and recovery was far easier than I expected, with painkillers only needed for two days. Dr. Tattelbaum called me the day after surgery to check on me, which is just another example of his excellent bedside manner. At my follow-up appointments, he has been informative about my healing process, and has continued to keep me apprised about what to expect as the process continues. At only two months post-op, I'm already thrilled with how much better my breasts look, and I feel so much more confident. I sought this procedure because I wanted to finally look normal, and Dr. Tattelbaum has exceeded that goal far and away. I only wish I had done this sooner! I also have to shout out Pei and Eve for all of their help along the way. They have been wonderful to work with! I can't recommend Dr. Tattelbaum and his team highly enough.
