Default Refferals to P S docs

I'm ready to start looking into my plastic surgery in San Diego area. Those of you have had PS with surgeons and hospitals you were completely satisfied with, please PM me with names. I am planning a minimum of TT and hernia repair-hoping to get BC to pay most of it with skin issues and the like, so BC providers (PPO) are preferred. Thanks sisters!

I had my tummy tuck and hernia repair done by Dr Gilbert Lee of Changes Plastic Surgery in Del Mar. I am totally happy with the results and Dr Lee and his staff are awesome!!! You can check out their website at changesplasticsurgery.com

Dr. Philip Humber in Encinitas. He has been a blessing to me. He did surgery on my Mom 15 years ago and her results today are the same!!! Way cool. I love him...not in that way. He is very realistic and will not do too much at the same time. He is very careful and results are beautiful.

I also had Dr. Dennis Nigro...10 years ago..he performed lipo from the waist down...He is in Encinitas, too. I know a few of my friends who went to him.

My wife (former GB patient herself) used Dr. Jonathan W. Jones in San Diego for a tummy tuck and breast lift. He is board certified and a great surgeon - she had wonderful results. BTW he gave her a discount because of her weight losss surgery and he was recommended by the weight loss program operated by the Pacific Bariatrics program. His office is located at 4000 Fourth Avenue, Suite 205, San Diego, CA.

BTW other docs have commented to my wife that her tummy tuck and breast lift were the best they have ever seen.
