PS in Oregon?? Eugene???
I have no insurance...and am flying down to Mexico for my WLS. But for Plastic Surgery, the thought of going to Brazil is just starting to bubble up...if I have to pay for it.
I think there is a weight loss doctor with incredible rates on plastic surgery in Washington...and English Doc...so check on the boards. I can't remember his name. ( sigh....the Bustline...and then the Brain....both start falling down simolutaneously!)
Do you go to a support group of any type, Ginger? It is looking more and more like we will end up moving to Eugene but I've not seen any postings of a support group in town. Dinka Doo just is getting one together in Medford...but that is a bit of a drive!
Happy new years
I have heard Dr. Parrish here in Medford is one of the best, but I'm not sure about prices. Here is his website: http://www.dr-parrish.com/. Apparently (I've been told) people come from long distances to see him. There is also one in Bend, but can't remember his name - he has a great rep.
I will check out Parrish first and if insurance pays for the TT (I have "issues" down there after all), I'll stay local. If not, I may go to Brazil also. Can't remember the name of the one people from the US are flocking to down there, but there is a yahoo group for them. I may go there if the cost is that much better.

The PS in Brazil that I know several people have gone to is Dr. Fabio. Here's the link to his site....he's got prices. Everyone I know who's been to him has been very pleased with pricing, care and outcome. I can probably get the TT under my insurance, but might just get it all done down there.

Here's the yahoo site...it says "adult", maybe because of the nudity in the surgery pics...it's legit!
