Has anyone gone to Dr. Ernest Rehnke in St. Pete FL for hernia repair and

had a Panniculectomy done at the same time? I am going for my appointment on Monday,but was just trying to get a bit of info beforehand. I am getting the hernia repaired because it desperately needs fixed. I was pregnant when I found out I had it,so it has been delayed for well over a year now. As far as the Panniculectomy goes,I am sick to death of carrying around this apron of skin! I know that his brother,Robert is a plastic surgeon. So,I'm wondering if they could work together & if anyone has done this. If so,what part did insurance pay & how much was self pay? It has been almost 5 years since my initial gastric bypass,which Dr. Rehnke also performed,and I am long over due in getting this follow up work done. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.....
