As of posting, brassard is $18,040 canadian dollars and suporn is 495,000 baht.
edit: both are "all inclusive" prices, transportation, aftercare provided, no staying at a hotel with brassard
I'll never recommend a surgeon even if I got the best results ever crafted, it would be my personal opinion based on my outcome. (which will be why I won't say "Dr. Reed is good" because it can become a glorified pissing match between others who think their chosen surgeon is a deity of medicine.)
Very wise words... We can all only speak of our own experiences and every doctor in this field, without exception, has had operations that did not go well. We're dealing with biology here, not car parts. Every human being is slightly different, so a given surgical technique will work differently from one person to the next.
Hence my PM which listed all of the UK surgeons available but
without making any specific recomendations. The best way to decide is to do your own homework, look at the pics on the web, read the notes, email the surgeons - most of them will respond in person, and you can then get an idea of how approachable they are, and indeed whether they seem to understand where you are at. Then you pick one or perhaps two and go see them in person.
It takes time and in some cases there is a cost, but if you do the selection carefully, then if you are unlucky, and end with a sub optimal result (very rare) at least you know that it was your own mistake and not something that happened because of someone else's bad advice.
For the record my first result was ok, but not brilliant by todays standards, so some time later I went back to a different surgeon and the revised result is much better.
