Hi Nicole! I'm about a month post-op and wanted to share my thoughts and hopefully you can post this on the "patient feedback" section for my wonderful doctor. I used G. Wesley Price with the Center for Plastic Surgery in Chevy Chase, MD. I found him on your site and couldn't be happier.
Here it goes...
I'm 22-years old and had been dreaming about getting surgery for as long as I can remember. After years of research, I finally decided to go ahead with the procedure. I was nervous about my consultations. As an avid watcher of a certain plastic surgery TV program, I was nervous about having a plastic surgeon that was overly friendly, fake, and touchy. I simply wanted a well-respected and certified surgeon who would do a great job!
Dr. Price was my first consultation and ended up being the surgeon I chose. I've been researching and speaking with others who've had the procedure done for quite some time, so I didn't have many questions. Our consultation was brief, yet informative. Additionally, the staff at CPS is incredibly friendly and forthcoming with questions about their own experiences.
My biggest fear was not going big enough and, as such, I chose a size a little larger than Dr. Price suggested. I was nervous about this choice and on the day of my surgery I decided to go with his professional opinion and ended up going with 300cc. I'm SO GLAD I did. It's the perfect size on me, looks natural, and I can't imagine them bigger!!! I respect Dr. Price immensely for being honest, helpful, and doing what was in my best interest.
A little bit about the CPS environment: I was by far the youngest patient I ever saw in the waiting room. As others have mentioned, they cater to an older, more conservative clientele, but I nonetheless loved the environment and my experience. Additionally, the person who commented about the conservative implant sizing is right on the money---however, I believe that is more a product of the area (Washington, DC) than anything. Everyone gets surgeries here, but NOBODY talks about it.
I highly recommend Dr. Price and CPS. I love love love my results!!!

After 8 years of dreaming, a year of research, 5 consultations I found the perfect doctor on ImplantInfo by Nicole! I knew what I wanted from incision, to implant company, to position but had some concerns due to having a few biopsies and a very large sternum. I made a list of questions as well as the questions suggested by the ASPS to ask surgeons. Two of the five were rather short and almost offended by my questions. The other three were very open and informative. All doctors suggested that I go larger than I had told them I wanted to go due to me being almost 6 ft. tall. I also wanted to know about possible surgery for my nose due to breathing issues. All doctors but one wanted to do both my breast and the nose. One doctor and only one asked me what results I wanted from both surgeries. He told me he would be more than happy to work with me, took all my concerns seriously, LISTENED TO ME, made suggestions but then told me that this was my body and my choice. He then also suggested that I go to an ENT for the nose surgeries because even though he would be more than willing to help me out, an ENT specialized in that area and insurance would cover the cost. HE saved me $9,000!
I booked my procedure the next day, went to an ENT and after a few test learned the the issues I had were more involved than what a plastic surgeon could do. What an amazing man Dr. French is! He took my health and concerns as the most important part of the appointment. He made a few suggestions...size being on of them. I went back to your site and did a search on woman my height and cupsize and realized that he was 100% correct. He also told me different options to help me with my sternum issues and answered each and every questions I asked....even showing me data on complications he and his partners have had in the past 20 years! Also, his staff was welcoming, sincere, informative, and no matter what I asked (or the jokes I cracked) they answered with complete honesty and professionalism! Thank you so much for all the information you and the other ladies give in this site. It made my procedure uneventful. And even 2 1/2 weeks post op....I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
Hi, Nicole! What an awesome website! I used it to do research pre-BA, and I'm still totally addicted to it. It has been so helpful, especially since I personally do not know anyone else who has gone through this.
I used Dr. Albert Fleury with the Center for Plastic Surgery. He is one of your sponsors, although I found him originally through the Washingtonian Magazine Top Doctors issue. I wanted to make sure that whichever surgeon I chose had outstanding qualifications and was highly respected among his peers. What made me decide to go ahead and consult with him first were the photos and descriptions on your website. I already knew that I wanted to have the crease incision and have the implants placed under the muscle, and it seemed that that was what the doctors with CPS liked to do. I was especially impressed with the before and after photos, which showed the look I wanted.
Dr. Fleury was the only plastic surgeon with whom I consulted. I had a huge list of questions, including some fairly unusual ones, and he answered them all with confidence. He was able to show me before & after pictures of women who had my build and my starting breast size, and he assured me that he had done BAs on many law enforcement officers (which I am). One of the nurses told me that Dr. Fleury and the other two doctors at CPS were more conservative and generally used implant sizes between 250cc and 400cc. I chose 300cc implants, which he overfilled to 330cc. I have no idea whether this is due to the character of the practice or whether this is due to our being located in the Washington, DC area, but I have seen very few women under the age of 35 in the waiting room
I know different people prefer different things in their physicians. Dr. Fleury is definitely not the chatty, hand-holding type. He will certainly answer any questions and concerns a patient may have, but I'm not sure his no-nonsense style would be a good fit for some of the more "high maintenance" patients (the ones who need constant reassurance, etc.). Most of the nursing and admin staff are extremely friendly.
The bottom half of my right pocket ended up narrower and shallower than my left, which made my right side higher and humpier. Dr. Fleury said at around the two-month mark that it could be that the pocket was not made big enough to begin with or it could be that the pocket closed up a little post-op. (I had noticed that immediately after the BA both creases were perfectly even, but at around four weeks the right crease started creeping upwards.) In any event, at five and a half months post-op he said we should go ahead and fix it. I had a pocket revision done in his surgical suite about a week later, under local anesthesia, at no cost. Now my breasts are even and I can wear all sorts of neat stuff!
Anyway, I'm sure this message is a lot longer than you need. I would highly, highly recommend Dr. Fleury as a plastic surgeon. And if I knew anybody who was interested in getting a BA, I would definitely recommend your website too! Thank you so much for providing this great service!
