hey Cath
Dr L has been following me for six years now...just waiting for me to pick up the phone and book my surgery too!
i love him...he is super! you might want to write to Admoul (Anne) here on forum...do a search on top of the page...and you will see she had partial minimally invasive approach with Dr Lonner....and feels good now...back to her job and all...
i agreed with doc to do minimally invasive as well...T11-pelvis (though i need T4-pelvis)...but am just not ready...however, i looked at the back view of my waist with a mirror...it looks like all the pre op waists on forum!
best of luck
you'll be in great...and talented...hands!
