Consultation review: Maybe a Good Doc, but Not a Good Match for This SA Mom

I had a consultation with this doctor mid-July. As I begin to due my research on the best PS to select for a tummy tuck I went into this thinking Dr. Lawton would be my number one pick. He is clearly very educated and credentialed. However, I was a bit taken back by his patient ettiquette. I work in the STEM field in a government position and being that he has a science based degree in Chemical Engineering he seemed to be more interested in talking about Science and Technology and my job. For the most part we talked more about him than we did me. I did learn that he does not combine other procedures (lipo) with his TTs. He had good reasons and I totally believe that is his prerogative, but as I consulted with other doctors I felt it was safe and more importantly felt I would be more apt to get the results I was looking for with Lipo to the flanks w/ TT. He also mentioned a line of nutrition products he highly encourages patients to get to help with recovery. Being in a post op state now I certainly understand the importance of a nutrient filled diet to help your body heal but that can be achieved without necessarily buying his product line. I was surprised that of the three doctors I met with he was actually the least expensive, but I am sure it has something to do with him having his own operating room and not mixing in other procedures. There are a lot of great reviews on Dr. Lawton. There are clearly people with positive results, and I will not dispute his education. But for me I do not feel he was the right choice. This review is based purely on the consult not any procedure.
On a side note it is very interesting to me that there was once a similar review on him here that is no longer here.
