You might want to consider flying to Toronto for surgery with Dr. Fielding. His lipo fee is approx $1500 right now. Health Care pays the rest of surgical cost.

Well, I can tell you I had a bad experience with Dr.Giuffre when i had the gyno removed in '97. I had to have one side re-done because of his unwillingness to put in a drain. I had gyno quite bad and the pooling of the blood into the cavity left once the tissue was removed was substantial. He didn't see the need to put in a drain and I ended up with a massive clump of scar tissue under one nipple. After 6 months of physio (ultra-sound and manual manipulation) solved nothing other than emptying my bank account, I had it re-done again by him (he paid or else I would not have went back to him...) and again he didn't put in a drain. I went to my regular Dr. about a week later and he drained about 1-200ml of blood from the cavity. He said it would continue to fill up with blood for some time, so I bought myself a box of syringes and for the next few months I DAILY jammed a needle right under my nipple and drained the blood out...pulling maybe 50cc a day...anyways it worked and my chest looked okay...but I have always had a tiny bit of scar tissue and numbness on that side. I'm looking at getting it touched up and can tell you that I would fly 1/2 way around the world to get the right Dr. to do it....I'm considering the guy in Virginia...Dr.Berman.
But I heard from a Dr. friend that some Dr.s have put it thru on Alberta Health care...don't know if it's true, but worth investiging...
