Recommendations for breast reduction surgeon in NE.

[ilovecherries]

Just as it says, really. I’ve been lucky enough to be approved for an NHS reduction on clinical grounds, but the date keeps getting pushed back - was spring 2019, now pushed back to ‘late summer’ whatever that means, and I’m terrified funding will be withdrawn before it gets done. I’m looking at private options - I want a hospital setting rather than a clinic, and looking at anywhere between Leeds and Edinburgh. I want someone who specialises in breast surgery, not someone who spends most of their time doing fillers and Botox, with a bit of boob work on the side. I’ve read bios till my eyes cross, but wondered if anyone had any recommendations for surgeons?

I used to work in breast surgery NHS with Mr khalid Khan, he was very good, and nice.
Here.

Thanks, Eleanor, he seems to be in Northern Ireland though? I don’t honk I will feel up to flying or a ferry journey 24 hours after that kind of surgery - and would also worry about aftercare.

Think, not honk!

Sorry, I misread your title and thought you said NI!
No help then sorry.

I was just about to suggest miss mithoff again then I realised we chatted on the other thread. I hope everything goes well for you

missmarple I followed up on her but can’t even get an initial private consult with her before end March and then they estimated another 3 months after that for surgery. It just feels such a long time after spending so long going down nhs route. I just want it over now, although I also want someone good.

She only works on a Tuesday I think. I remember that feeling though of dying to get it done. There's loads of good surgeons out there so good luck when it happens for you.
