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 .

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.

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:

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