From the reviews

Dr. Budd was an outstanding surgeon with the best bedside manner. He and all of the staff in the pre-op and plastic surgery department were so kind and made me feel incredibly safe. I’m beyond happy with my decision of going with Dr. Budd.

★★★★★ — Christina, Oct 2019

He is the best out there. I had a double mastectomy,,and now I have two nice breast. I'm not a small woman. My breast reconstruction was the best experience I had through this whole ordeal. He's knowledgeable, honest, and he works hard for you.

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.
