Has anyone met or had surgery with Dr Kriegal, plastic surgeon. 

I assumed this was Dr Krieger from Fair Oaks.   But just found out its not.    Krieger & Goldburg have a great reputation and know people that have had reconstructin with them.  

Dr Kriegal has no information on Obesity.    Would like to learn more about him.  I plan on reconstruction in about 6 months.

I have not  personally had any reconstructive surgery and do not know who Dr Kriegal is.  However, I have many WLS friends who have used Dr Krieger and they cannot say enough good things about him. 

When I get around to having some reconstruction done (sounds like a building site doesn't it) the one thing I have learned that I would pass along to you is that you want a surgeon who has done 100+ WLS patients.  A tummy tuck on one of us is very different because of all the excess skin.   At a WLS Christmas event, a woman I know "Won a free tummy tuck" from a WLS surgeon (not the same thing as a plastic surgeon) and what he did to her is well, very sad to say the least.

Thank you much Cathy.      I also understand that Dr Kriegal is not a general surgeon he only does  plastic surgery.

Krieger is a reconstruction & plastic.   Big difference.  Since I have a hernia issue too.  
I will definately be making an appointment with Krieger and Goldberg.  

Thank you again for your insight.

Thank you      I want an experienced reconstruction/plastic surgeon.       I chose my surgeon based on his exceptional general surgeon reputation.   

My surgeon wants me to consider Dr Kriegel.  I know near nothing about him.    Will do alot more research before making any decisions.

Appreciate your insight
