The Right Surgeon - Who are we?
 

The Right Surgeon Medical Services was formed due to a recognized need for fully vetted and highly skilled professionals in all the fields of the medical sector in India. 60,000 British tourists sought medical services abroad last year alone, and the trend looks set to keep growing.

The Right Surgeon is the only service of its kind throughout India and was formed to assist people like myself. Having been a frequent visitor to Goa for a number of years and having read some of the fantastic reviews and testimonials written by a Daily Mail reporter in the U.K.

The article stated that India offers the highest standard, state of the art medical equipment and expertise at a massively reduced rate to other medical tourist destinations, with many advantages including the comfort of English speaking medics, plus many medics having had numerous years of experience in the U.K. National Health Service.

After carrying out a great deal of research I came to Goa in search of the right surgeon, the right care, at the right price and would now like to share my knowledge and experience to help others achieve similar positive results.

Hi

My name is Lisa, Managing Director and creator of The Right Surgeon company. As you can see from the pictures above, I have had several surgical procedures.  These have taken place over the last four years. You can decide what you think of the transformation. 

As I previously mentioned, I had frequently travelled to Goa India as it is an amazing holiday destination and my children and I enjoyed many a happy tropical, palm fringed beach holiday there.

I had dreamt of moving there for some years and eventually that opportunity arose.  I had separated from the children’s father some years previously and had totally let myself go...I was in fashion hell. There were virtually no shops that could fit me with a bra: I was so outsized that nothing fitted comfortably, let alone attractively. When I went shopping for clothes, I would leave empty handed and very upset as nothing would fit or looked right... There was just no way to hide the multitude of embarrassing bulges.   I had yo-yo dieted for 10 yrs but would always let it slip and then put on even more weight.  This of course led me to binge eat, as I felt defeated. Four years ago, I was a size 18 – 22. Now, I am a size 8 – 10.

Some years ago, my mother had pointed out a double page report in the Daily Mail about how one of their reporters had sought out a hospital in India.  I read it eagerly as it went on to describe what a wonderful five star experience he had had there.  The reporter described the medical expertise and equipment as being second to none.  I had just received a financial windfall and needed little encouragement to head for India for five months to further consider my move there.  I also wanted to find a surgeon for the terrible overhang stomach I had acquired: for it to be removed once and for all.  Great idea and opportunity....  Except....  How do you choose The Right Surgeon ?  

In all honesty, I went for several consultations and really did not have any idea who I should trust and my five month trip was quickly coming to an end.  Each surgeon I met would say the same or worry me a little more than the last : saying that ‘they had my best interests at heart and not my cash in mind’. Even though I really did not know who to trust,   I decided that if I did not do it at that point in my life and at the incredibly reduced price compared to the UK, then I never would. 

For this reason I came up with the idea for my company and since that time, many  surgeons and doctors have contacted me to be vetted in order to join the exclusive list of surgeons registered with The Right Surgeon.  MANY did not make the grade : professionalism and ethics being  big contributing factors in their being rejected as suitable.

Next year will be my fifth year working in Goa and, over those years, I have had the pleasure of meeting some FANTASTIC surgeons and doctors and in creating contracts with excellently equipped and staffed hospitals. I can now offer people like me who are looking for the very best medical care India has to offer, a chance to do so at a price that is a huge saving on that paid in the UK

Having had a Tummy Tuck/Liposuction in 2005 I looked GREAT! but this procedure did emphasise the size of my breasts which had always been very big even in my 20`s, when I was a size 10.  As I got older, gravity was getting the better of me due to their size.  I did what Kerry Katona has done very famously/publically after Liposuction, and continued to emotionally eat. If I was happy I ate; if I was sad, I ate. I lived to eat...  I finally reached a large size again and so decided to have gastric bypass surgery to deal with my weight issues once and for all.

It was the BEST thing I have EVER done!  I have now learnt to stop eating when I am full, I eat to live, not live to eat.  My whole attitude to food has completely changed and I have no in-put when I get together with girl friends and they discuss the latest diets and fads.  My confidence has soared and I can wear ANYTHING, I go to all those awful shops that only cater for size 6 – 12.  I hated them, and still resent their sizeist attitude but I also feel triumphant when their tiny designer clothes fit.

There can be negatives to having Gastric Bypass Surgery but if you are young and your skin has a good deal of elastine it can be similar to pregnancy.  It is possible to shrink back with no further surgery required.  However, because of my size, I would have still needed reduction/lift and also tummy tuck surgery. 

The pictures above are of Restylane treatment I had as my weight loss caused my naisaloids area to sink, creating deep lines at the side of my nose, Fern Britton, presenter of This Morning is experiencing the same as she loses weight due to her Gastric Surgery, I opted for Restylane and was amazed by the affect !
