Military - I am looking for names of surgeons in the Army that perform tummy tucks.

I have Tricare Prime insurance and my primary care physician has referred to me Fort Gordon for a tummy tuck. (I had gastric surgery last year). However, Fort Gordon is swamped and they denied my consultation. I was then referred to Walter Reid Medical Center but the waiting list there is years long. My husband goes on terminal leave in April of 2001 so time is running out. Fort Gordon and Walter Reid are the only 2 places that I know of that perform the tummy tucks. Does anyone out there know of any other place? I am willing to travel anywhere in the United States, maybe in other locations the waiting list is not so long. I am located in Ft Stewart, Ga. Thanks!!! Kathi
