Please advise - TT and BA in Alabama

Hello everyone. I had surgery in August and have lost just over a hundred lbs going from a size 16/18 L/XL to 4 small. Due to my age, I have been very fortunate from a rebound skin perspective but my stomach is all loose skin from triplets and I have no breasts to speak of lol. I won't need a lift because I didn't have much to lose to begin with there and now its just gone. I am just beginning to search out Dr.'s and start consults mid May. Before I get flamed, I DO plan on waiting until Aug-Oct for plastics which puts me past my 12 month waiting mark. Can anyone please recommend a ps in Alabama.  To date, I have considered William Hedden and have an apt on May 8th in Birmingham.

I will post this on both the ps and AL forum as people tend to suggest the other...

Thanks so much, Kim

Kim,

Howdy neighbor. Congrats on your success so far!

The length of time post surgery is less important then whether or not you've plateued in weight for several months. There's no magic number, but for many post MWL patients are closer to 18 months out with larger amounts of weight loss before they've stabilized. If you're already close, it's not too early to at least start talking to surgeons. I think you'd likely need to be reevaluated a little closer to surgery as well to help plan. We like to have people come in for at least 2 visits prior to surgery.

Please feel free to give us the office a call here in Birmingham if you'd like to come in to be evaluated this spring.

Cheers!

Dr. Rob Oliver

Thanks for the info. PM sent

Kim , I used DR Thomas Rumley in Gadsden ALA ,,,,HE IS GREAT in my opinion... They have a website .,.He is very personable and does a great TT and breasts.

Please think of Ross Bunch in Tuscaloosa. He has experience with bariatric patients and has some patient reviews on Obesity Help.
He has a very professional manner, and his costs are very reasonable, and the outpatient costs here are very low with good care.
