Does anyone know of any website or forum where I can read reviews of Houston Plastic Surgeons? I was hoping to choose based on peer reviews but there's not much to be found. Thanks

I don't think there is any city-specific. YOu can go to realself.com and try to navigate the type of procedure you want and reviews etc. First of all...go to a board certified plastic surgeon. There are many cosmetic doctors announcing themselves, but they are other specialties (ObGyn/Internal Medicine etc). Legally it is perfectly fine for them to practice because they are licensed doctors. However, if you are getting plastic surgery, you should go to a board certified plastic surgeon. Second...back off anyone that may try to sell you the procedure as "you can be on your way to vacation in 2 weeks" - for many procedures this is not true. Of course, I don't know what you want done...but just be warry of anyone having a "used car salesperson" approach.

Make a list of doctors, schedule a consultation with those that are located conveniently near home/work. Some of them charge, some don't for consultation. Have a list of what you would like done and expectations. How much time off you need? Overnight stay at hospital? Full cost - get estimate in writing, what's covered (anesthesia & hospital use may be separate)...ask many questions and see what their answer is. Ultimately you want to choose someone you feel comfortable talking to. REmember you will have several follow ups from your procedure..that's why I recommend getting someone conveniently located near home/work.

I had good experience with Dr. R. Lee Steely, and I would recommend him. He's located in Greenway Plaza. 713-622-6500. There is also a free magazine called NuImage (I think that is the name) that you can find at different stores and look at the advertisements..at least to get you started on your search.

Send me private message if you would like to discuss specifics about procedure,etc.
