TBodmer71 245 Posted July 14, 2014 I am located in Southern New Hampshire about 40 minutes north of Boston. We have some really great medical schools and hospitals in the area. I am trying to find out if anybody knows if the teaching hospitals perform plastic surgeries and if they do, is it at a discounted rate? Who would I contact at the schools and/or hospitals to inquire? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carol Harlow 1 Posted July 16, 2014 I am located in Southern New Hampshire about 40 minutes north of Boston. We have some really great medical schools and hospitals in the area. I am trying to find out if anybody knows if the teaching hospitals perform plastic surgeries and if they do, is it at a discounted rate? Who would I contact at the schools and/or hospitals to inquire? Where did you have your weight loss surgery? I would recommend that you ask you bariatric clinic to recommend plastic surgeons who specialize in the type of surgery that post weight loss surgery patients require. In my case health insurance covered only the panniculectomy. The rest I had to pay for myself, upfront. There are good plastic surgeons who do this kind of work at Beth Israel Deaconess, Mass General, Brigham and Women's, all in Boston , and in New Hampshire , there is Dartmouth Hitchcock. All are teaching hospitals. Do not expect any discounts, however. You would have to go abroad for that, to Mexico or Thailand , perhaps. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZDee 138 Posted July 19, 2014 There was a woman on another site that said she did have her extended Tummy Tuck, neck lift and her arms done at a Yale Hospital in CT with a residency program at a discounted rate , but her surgery was 6 years ago she said, so not sure If that is still available. I paid about the same as she did recently by going to a fantastic clinic in Mexico, so there are options, you just need to do some checking... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Subaru 66 Posted November 29, 2017 This is a dated thread, but I found out yesterday about the Mass General Hospital resident program for plastics. They do offer discounted rates. From the VERY little I've seen, I've only read of good results. I'll be doing more research into the program and people's experiences. If anyone here has used them, please review. Thanks!
