Question:
has anyone had Plastic surgery in the Chicago Area?

Particularly for a Tummy tuck. I've already had a panni--way before weight loss surgery, and now I want a full tuck (with the weight loss the Panni is coming back. Any recomendations on Surgeons and approximate costs? Also, if you have information on whether insurance covered it. Your help would be most appreciated    — corpdiva2006 (posted on March 8, 2002)

Hi there. I'm not sure how to tell when this question was posted, so i'm not sure how relavent this is, but I just recently had a tummytuck with hernia repair with Dr. Sam Speron in his Park Ridge Plastic Surgery Office. I would highly recommend Dr. Speron, he did fantastic work. 10/24/04

I used Dr. Stephen Madry, his website is www.stephenmadrymd.com . details of my lower body lift are on my profile. I am more than happy. he will try to get insurance coverage for you if it is at all possible.

I used Dr. Geoffrey Fenner out of Evanston Northwestern and couldn't be happier. He's a fabulous surgeon (and a nice guy), his office staff is great and the nurse & PA wonderful. My results are phenomenal. For the first time in my entire life I have a flat tummy. He also repaired a hernia, did my arms, and removed the skin that flabbed over the sides of my bra, and some liposuction. Insurance covered the panniculectomy and hernia repair (and therefore the hospital and most of the anesthesia); I paid for the rest.
