Looking 4 Weight loss Plastic Surgeon
Hello! At a support group meeting, Dr.Gavin Dry spoke and showed slides. He specializes in PS for weight loss patients. He is in Kirkland. He seemed very compassionate and passionate about his work.I was very impressed with his before and after slides. A lady next to me had a tummy tuck with excellent results. She raved about him, and was saving up for more work. He has a profile and patient reviews on OH. See "Find a Surgeon" above. Good luck to you! I'm about 80 pounds and thousands of dollars away from PS, but I so look forward to that day!
In addition to Dr. Dry, you might want to check out Dr. Egrari in Bellevue. I had a consult with him and really liked him and his office and staff. He is expensive, though, and I suspect Dr. Dry is as well. Dr. Egrari's website is www.egrari.com. I would also suggest Dr. Stridde in Federal Way. His website is www.psplasticsurgery.com. Both of these docs have done work on WLS patients. I had consults with both and really liked what both had to say. Unfortunately I'm not going to have plastics due to the costs involved. Good luck!!

I have been thru cancer treatent and had a mastectomy and reconstrution. My plastic surgeon was Dr Dan Downey at Northwest hospital. I had what is called a tram-flap which is a tummy tuck and they use the skin from the tummy to make a new breast. I also had breast reduction and lift on the other side. He is an excellent surgeon. I recomended him to my sister and she had a reduction and lift too.You can google him and get more info, he is great one of the top docs in Seattle area.

Good luck on your search! I consulted with 3 of the docs mentioned in the above posts, plus 1 in TX and 1 in IA. All were friendly and sounded competent, and 3 specialized in WLS patients. BUT, I just could not pay the prices they quoted, even after trying to negotiate. I elected to go to Mexico for my plastics and am extremely happy with the results. Let me know if you are interested in discussing that option!
Hello, I would love to hear of your experience. I have thought about going to Mexico but I am afraid. The stories you hear scare the daylights out of me. I have mentioned it to my H but he doesn't like the idea. I think its fear, he is afraid of something bad happening and then we have no recourse.
