Guest guest Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Rose--You were talking about plastic surgery. Could you explain what you meant about mesh, and healing, and belly button dying off. Yikes! Did Kaiser not repair your hernia when the did your RNY? I have heard that sometimes they do. Now that you are having the tummy tuck, are they putting mesh in to repair the hernia at the same time? Are you saying that by doing this you risk losing your belly button just by having the tummy tuck? What's worse, a hernia or no belly button? Yikes! > > Dr. Green is off Scripps Drive in Sacramento. Kaiser will repair the hernia but they will not pay for any cosmetic surg unless your apron is causing problems or hangs way too low. Be causious if you get your hernia repaired thats the problem that I'm running into right now. Dr. Green says if Kaiser used mesh when they repaired my hernia at the time of my WLS then my belly button might die off. Lets hope that doesn't happen. He is going to do everything he can to save it of course. I will find out next week more info. My surg is next wends the 31st. > Rose > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 My pastic surgeons name is Dr. Place in Danville. She is a beautiful person. You just get a a warm feeling about her and a since she cares. Her number is . The address is 919 San Ramond Valley Blvd., Suite 255, Danville, CA 94526. I have a coworker that made an appointment with her last week but she won't get in to see her until July. Dr. Place is very high in demand. When I made my initial appointment with her, it was in November and I did not get in to see her until February and I did not have my surgeries until April. One thing about it, she is good and affordable. The have a company that will do the financing if you don't have the money with very low interest rates. The initial consult is free. Who ever you decide to go with, I wish you well.
