Name your surgeon and how long you had to wait from the time you booked your consult til the actual consult date itself.

Dr. Francis Johns (Pittsburgh) Only 2 weeks!

How long you had to wait from the time you booked your surgery til the actual surgery date itself.

He goes to various hospitals. However, the one I want to go to, the soonest he had was a month away.

Dr. Straka, Houston, TX
2 MONTHS!!!!
4/28/09

I don't know if I want to wait that long. They say it's getting busy b/c it's so close to summer.

I had to wait 2 weeks for the first and 1 1/2 month for the other...the other being my first choice in PS. He was worth the wait.

Weewerz · 03-02-2009, 08:06 PM

My surgeon is Dr Russell Haupt. I had to wait about 6 weeks for a consult. When I went in for pre-op I was able to get a surgery date the same week.

Dr. David Kim - B.H

Date of Consult: 3/4
Date of breast augmentation: 4/14 (I choose this date though) They probably would've taken me sooner.

Athena77 · 03-10-2009, 02:30 PM

I called for an app't 2 weeks ago- They scheduled me for dec 23 -09 (yikes!)

They called on sat with a cancellation slot for yesterday.

So it took 2 weeks, but they book almost a year in advance-
Dr. Brian Peterson Kelowna BC

VERY well recommended- and very high demand. I would have waited the year.

Consults in No VA -
1. Dr Brown Called on Friday and scheduled the following Tuesday
2. Dr George Weston called on Friday and scheduled the following Tues
3. Dr Bitar called Friday, they returned my all on Sat and scheduled me for the following Thursday

Not too bad...

nfolsom · 03-12-2009, 09:44 PM

I called and got in 2 weeks later

Dr. David Lavine, Fort Worth TX

Montana · 03-14-2009, 12:24 AM

I got in the day after I called and they set me up for 10 days later.

Miss Dee · 03-15-2009, 12:30 AM

Dr AB Guerra
3 weeks wait for consult
1 month for surgery but that was my timeline had to put in for vacation

mdw79 · 03-16-2009, 04:43 PM

I called last wednesday to book an appt. for consultation and went for a consultation that friday. This morning the surgery coordinator called to let me know that my pre-op is on March 20th and surgery date will be on April 1st (Hubby is friends with PS, so I don't know if that has anything to do with me securing a date that fast)

My surgeon's name is Dr. Kurtis Martin. I only had to wait about a week between the time I called to schedule the initial consultation and the actual consult date itself.

I had to wait just over a month from the time I finally was able to book my surgery until my actual surgery date.

melodie5 · 03-19-2009, 02:10 PM

For the first consultation I had to wait about a month and a half, I got on the wait list though or it would have been 2 to 3 months. My second consultation was only 6 days after and my surgery is booked for the 24th of april ( 1.5 months from my second consultation). Im pretty happy because I called around to other surgeons in the city and had to book a year or so in advance for a consult!

Purr@Mandi · 03-22-2009, 05:55 PM

I called to make an appointment on March 3rd for March 11th (8 days). Pre-op was on the 13th of March. Finally, Surgery on March 17th (6 days)! Now 6 days since i got my breast augmentation!!
