Dr. Godat in Dallas



Recommended Posts

So I've finally reached the point that I've lost enough (145 lbs.) to start thinking about plastic surgery and I've decided to go with Dr. Godat at Medical City in Dallas. Is anyone familiar with him? I've had my first consult with him and feel confident with him, I just thought a few more opinions wouldn't hurt!

Also, I'm scheduled for a TT and brachioplasty with Lipo on my chin. Does anybody have some arm lift photos I could take a look at? I know the scarring is terrible, but I figure it's better than being able to jump off a building and take flight with my batwings.

My surgery isn't until July 20, but I want to see as many examples and learn as much as I can between now and then so I don't have any false expectations. I'm not so concerned with the TT or chin, but I want my arms to look as normal as possible!

Thanks for any input!

I too am almost to the point of getting a Tummy Tuck. I'm looking more toward a date in early March. I live in the Dallas area. I'm having a hard time finding a good doctor. If you could keep me posted I would love to know how it works out for you. Thanks so much!

donnahauus........The nurses on every shift at the hospital really were praising Dr. Todd Pollock and Dr. Harlan Pollock (father/son) - they are affiliated with Presbyterian. My PS was at Tx Inst. of Surgery on Greenvile......a wonderful experience as far as hospitals go. Todd's office is in Allen; Harlen's is in Dallas on Walnut Hill. I posted about my experience so far elsewhere in this forum if you'd like to read it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
