Amy S. Bekanich, MD

I visited Dr. Bekanich after losing 228 pounds in a little over a year. I lost my weight naturally with diet and exercise and was left with significant loose skin in my lower abdomen, chest, arms, legs and back. I lost all this weight only to find out my body was still sagging. I thought I would never look "normal". I met Dr. Bekanich through the TLC Show, Skin Tight. Her reviews were great but I was still nervous. After speaking to her on the phone, she pacified my concerns and made me believe that something could be done. My procedures were documented on television and were highly successful. I had a Tummy Tuck, chest lift and had my nipples successfully reattached. In a separate procedure, I also had an arm and leg lift and an upper back lift. The pain was minimal and the recovery was fast. In both surgeries, I was completely off painkillers within two weeks. Dr. Bekanich and her staff were always responsive to any questions or concerns. They are among the kindest people I have ever had worked with. I consider her the greatest physician I have ever had the opportunity to work with in any capacity and would recommend her to anyone seeking plastic surgery of any type. I was terrified of having surgery as I had never had any major medical procedures performed prior to these surgeries. Her office pacified my many (and wildly irrational) fears and made me feel comfortable the entire time. I always felt like there was a plan in place which was very important for me to feeling comfortable. I honestly have nothing negative I could possibly say about the experience. They educated me about the procedures and potential complications. I had a small wound separation which was completely expected and treated with care and precision. Despite having a thriving practice, I always felt like she was there for me as if I was her only patient. And Alethea in her office may be the sweetest woman on earth. The only bad part about them is they did such a great job that I don't need any more work done and I miss working with them so much. I heartily recommend them. Dr. Bekanich gave me a new lease on life and I could not be more grateful.
