Looking for a good plastic surgeon in Austin, TX



Recommended Posts

I am just 3 months out from lap band surgery and will surely need a Tummy Tuck when I get to my goal. I am just beginning to research plastic surgeons in Austin. Does anyone know of a good one? I know I'm a long way from that decision but I believe in research, research, research. If anyone can help, I would surely appreciate it.

Yep sure do . I have researched and researched this . Im still about a yr out from it ( due to money ) but one of THE BEST is Dr Robert Caridi . You heard that commerical "Westlake Platic Surgery , Dr Robert Caridiii " thats him .

Plastic surgery Austin, Texas | Westlake Plastic Surgery

I went to a breast implant seminar he threw and before i went you could email questions to have answered there. i did that and HE answered me back himself to get more info.

He really seems to car about his patients.

He's a LITTLE more expensive then some others. But he's GOOD!

He is as informative as his website !

When i get mine done i will go with him.

Congrats on youe weight loss so far !

I agree that Dr Caridi is a well known and respected surgeon in the Austin area.

Also, OH.com has a list of surgeons plus patient reviews in Texas:

ObesityHelp.com - Plastic Surgeons in Texas

As part of your research, you may want to consider the new book Dr. McNemar, Kreiger, and I authored especially for weight loss patients:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
