From the reviews
I had breast cancer and Dr Bast did my breast reconstruction surgery. He is very professional. He is actualy very personable after he gets to know you. Dr Bast did a great job with both of my surgeries. I can not say enough good things about him and his staff. His staff is also fantastic!
A few years ago. Had dcis breast cancer. After removal of my breast. Dr Bast was my surgeon. For a d i e p flap. I had no complications perfect healing. Highly noligable explain things very well also his bedside manner is the best.This doctor's number one in the area in my book. Highly recommend.
Dr Bast has been my surgeon since my first surgery 2 1/2 years ago. I had quite a few complications but Dr Bast and his team have always been supportive and very knowledgeable. They’ve always treated me with kindness and compassion.
Dr, Bast is the best. He has preformed two reconstructive surgeries on me with surprisingly fantastic results. I also must praise his PA Chelsea who is always available 24/7 to answer any questions or concerns. I texted her this morning on a Saturday and received a satisfactory reply within 2 minutes.
Researching a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.
Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
