Title: Top Surgery options in Australasia, South-East Asia etc.?
Post by: kestin on February 04, 2009, 06:19:43 PM
Heya guys, I'm hoping to get top-surgery within two years time and was wondering what would be the best options in my region of the world. There aren't (as far as I'm aware of) very many surgeons experienced in this procedure in NZ, and considering currency conversions, I understand Thailand would be my best bet... though I'd rather get it done in Oz as its aloooot closer.

Can anyone recommend a Doctor, Down-under?

I'm not sure about surgeons but I have the contact details for the Monash Gender Clinic in Melbourne if you like. I'm sure they'd be able to give you a list of Australian surgeons and maybe even assist in arranging a consult with them (not sure on that one though). I don't know if it's such a good idea to post the clinic's contact stuff online though, and I can't send private messages yet, but when I can I'll send some stuff to you if you like?

you can fly from NZ direct to the Gold Coast really cheaply at the moment and there is heaps of choices up here! (Everyone wants some sort of Plastic Surgery, lol)

Im going through the Lotus Institute - I have my first appointment next month, so I am not sure of cost or anything yet, but can let you know. My Doc recommended the Lotus Institue - he said it is not the cheapest but it gives the best results. So I'll check it out. If you google them you will find there webpage and contact details.
