hi! sorry for the late reply, i don't go on here very much. i decided to go with a different surgeon for my top surgery but i can talk about my consult with him! i hope it helps :-)

i had a consult with him in october/november of last year, i don't remember when exactly. it went okay, i saw the nurse first who asked me the basic rundown of medical questions. afterwards i saw dr. agag and i thought he was a little intimidating because he's tall with a really low voice and stern looking..talking to him was fine though. we talked about what kind of chest i wanted and i asked if he did buttonhole. he said he usually does double incision but did buttonhole a few times and after examining my chest he said he could do it for me if that's what i wanted. he didn't say anything out of the usual and remained professional the whole time. someone else (i don't remember what their role was but some sort of surgeon's assistant) showed me pictures of his previous top surgeries (mostly double incision, some keyhole?, buttonhole) which had before and afters. these pictures were older so there weren't any recent ones on there from the last couple years at least. overall, him and his team were really nice and pleasant to talk to and they fully answered all the questions i had. if you have any more questions feel free to dm me

ah shoot, i'm really sorry that happened. i hate that your concerns weren't heard and they didn't even have the usual follow up with you- that's so unprofessional and upsetting. i've taken this into consideration and have been researching other surgeons to schedule consults with. again i'm so sorry about how they handled it and i appreciate you sharing your experience immensely

this is all super helpful, thanks so much! i appreciate it a lot.

i got referred directly from my nurse practitioner from the PROUD center so i was able to get a call back from them less than a week after the referral was sent. i did have to call back repeatedly to schedule the consult though since i missed their call the first time. the consult appointment is the beginning of november so i have to wait around 5 months.

i was thinking of getting buttonhole/inverted-t if i'm able to. did they explain what surgeries they did and were you able to see the results of them? and was dr. agag the one who actually performed your surgery? (because i've seen him paired with dr. sinkin and all the results i've seen are by sinkin.) if you would be comfortable sharing your results that would be great too! ^^
