Dr. Miguel A. Delgado in San Francisco

[SFguy]

I went crazy and made two appointments today. One with Dr. Delgado and one with Dr. McGrath at UCSF. Any advice on either or additional surgeons would be greatly appreciated.

I went to see Delgado because i saw that he posted a FAQ on this website. JUst becareful when u go see him cause the parking there is a pain in the ass, i got a $50 ticket.

First of all you should have someone with you for the first 24 hours. So it is best to have someone pick you up post surgery. Taking a taxi sounds pretty lonely to me and you are venerable enough after the surgery.

I used Delgado, because he is so experienced.  He is not cheap. I wanted someone working on me that does a lot of surgeries. This was my second and god willing last, I don't want to do it again.

I am 5 weeks out and the difference is pretty stunning. Between the film crews and photographers from all the press that I had, they are all pretty amazed and have commented a lot.

Trust me you don't want to wear a compression vest more than once, but the time your six weeks are you, you want nothing tight on your body for a long long time.

I don't know the other doctor, and I live in the East Bay, right across from SF, and it takes me about 40 mins to get there. Well worth the drive.

40-60 minute drive? You should consider yourself lucky to have such a qualified surgeon so close.
