Plastic surgery .....which doc??
I have seen presentations by several plastics surgeons including the program at Duke and UNC Chapel Hill. While I have not had plastics myself, I run a large support group in Raleigh and have had Dr. Karl Schwartz talk with our group. He has performed surgery for a member of our group with wonderful results. He is thoughtful and considerate. He takes his time with you and will answer as many questions as you have. If I had the where with all to consider plastics, I'd have him at the top of my list.
I hope that helps.

I know that Dr. Schwartz will do a free, in-depth consultation for you and help you look at the possibilities and how to best stage the surgery.
Duke and UNC's WLS program's periodically host their plastic surgeon's at their respective support group meetings.
