What do you think about a plastic surgeon who will only do one procedure at a time?

I was just approved for an abdominoplasty. I was also wanting lipo around my hips and thighs. (And a breast lift!) He said he will only do one procedure at at time, because he believes it is considerably more risky to do more than one. I know insurance won't pay for the Breast lift or the lipo, so I could really save money if I had it all done at once. He is the best surgeon in my area, the others are not highly recommended. I really don't want to travel far, like I did for my RNY. It was expensive to fly back for my followup appt.s. So I guess I should just suck it up and have just the TT done, since he does very nice work? Try to save pennies for the other procedures later?
