No, they stopped having the meetings back in Jan I believe. I ran into you once at Walmart in the photo dept over a year ago. I am up for a get together if anyone else is.

Hi Deanna...How are you doing? Remember me from the support group? It has been a while. This Nevada board is really quiet. I sometimes read the main forum but prefer to local chat. Checked out your pictures and after having two children you still look great! I need to get back on track, kinda been slacking a while. Take care, Dana

I had a tummy tuck/abdominalplasty so he says, in June 2003, the dr did a crap job and was suppose to do a revision, but unfortunatly I was going to have to pay for it again since insurance stated they would pay for it but never did. On a plus side it did get rid of a little skin but on a neg side he could have done it right the first time as i didnt have so much skin to even warrant him having to do a revision he screwed up and i would never go back to him or recommend him. Since this is a public forum i do not want to post his name but if you still want it so you dont go to him, then message me and I will send it to you...good luck

Hi Kara, I had a BL/BA done with Dr Hankins in Green Valley back in '05 and he did a wonderful job. I have also heard good things about Dr Parker in the Summerlin area but at the time I was getting my consults he was not board certified, so I chose a Dr that was. He might be now though. I also had 3 consults before deciding and looked at all their before and after pictures. Dr Hankins and Dr Parker both had free consults and I went to another Dr that charged for the consult and I didn't even care for him. Good luck, get as many consults as possible, ask alot questions and do your research. Here are their websites to check out. Dana http://www.arianasurgery.com/ http://www.lvplasticsurgery.com/
