Meet Dr. Kaufman
Fitness isn't just a craze, it's a way of life, and more people pursue a healthier, trimmer body with each passing year. Bariatric surgery is becoming widely available, and now that many insurance companies cover these procedures more people are taking advantage of the opportunity to finally gain control over their weight.
It's not surprising, then, that more physicians are offering to assist the post-weight loss community with plastic surgery to resculpt their new bodies. When you think about it, this makes it both easier and more difficult for you to find the right surgeon. There's a vast difference between the many surgeons who now offer body contouring after weight loss and those who truly specialize in these complex procedures. The difference will be obvious to you when you come in for your consultation with Dr. David Kaufman in Sacramento.
Dr. Kaufman has been working with the weight loss community for many years. He's involved in educating and supporting people throughout their weight loss experience as well as offering his plastic surgery expertise.
Strong Connections
Dr. Kaufman has strong connections with the weight loss community. He speaks regularly at three Sacramento-area weight loss support group meetings. He's also a member of two online groups and he plays a "sounding board" role for the people he meets.
Dr. Kaufman's interactions with his individual weight loss patients go well beyond those of the typical doctor-patient relationship. When you read his patients' firsthand experiences, you'll notice each one mentions the emotional bond they feel with their surgeon. And, if you read between the lines, you may also get the sense that each patient is eager to come back to Dr. Kaufman for more than one reason.
Experience That Makes a Difference
While they may be very qualified in other procedures, most plastic surgeons have not had the opportunity to develop extensive experience with body contouring after bariatric surgery or other weight loss. In contrast, Dr. Kaufman has worked with about 150 patients to date: weight loss patients from Nevada, Oregon, Alaska, Illinois, North Carolina and New York, as well as patients from across California. Patients have even traveled internationally to seek his services, and bariatric surgeons regularly refer their patients to him.
The benefits of experience are yours when you select Dr. Kaufman to be your body contouring plastic surgeon. Not only will you have every chance to realize outstanding results, you can rest assured knowing he will not let you choose surgery you won't be happy with, nor will he take chances with your health.
Your Surgical Partner
As you begin this phase of your transformation, Dr. Kaufman recommends you think carefully about your goals. Do you have specific areas that cause you rashes or pain? Are you hoping to expand your clothing options? Are you feeling good about your body for the first time and looking to extend those new feelings of self-confidence?
When you understand your motivations clearly and learn about the various plastic surgery after weight loss options, you can begin to develop a surgical plan. You can consider single versus combination procedures, and think about timing as it relates to your family, work and finances.
Dr. Kaufman has tremendous respect for people like you who have made such a significant commitment to changing their lives. He is experienced in all facets of post weight loss plastic surgery — the medical, the psychological and the financial. He wants to be your partner in creating and executing the plan for this most gratifying stage of your journey. Call him today at 916-983-9895 and arrange a time to come meet him in his Folsom office.
