Prior to founding his center near Tampa, Florida, in 2008, breast implant surgeon Dr. Roach graduated with honors from medical school and went on to train with dozens of surgeons highly regarded in the practice of general, plastic, and reconstructive surgery. Dr. Roach has also earned many awards throughout his education and career, including the esteemed honor of being named chief resident in plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.  While Dr. Roach performs a variety of plastic surgery procedures, he is widely recognized for his skill as a breast implant surgeon.

A breast implant surgeon should be well-trained, experienced, and artistic, and there are several key factors you should assess when making your decision. First and foremost, though, you should always pay attention to your “gut.” How does the surgeon make you feel? Are you comfortable with him or her? Did he or she rush through your consultation? Did he or she adequately answer your questions? How were you treated by the office staff? Remember: Your health and well-being are too important to entrust to a doctor who leaves you feeling uncomfortable – even if you don’t know why.

Once you establish a rapport with a potential breast implant surgeon, you’ll want to learn as much as possible about his or her qualifications. Toward that end, Dr. Roach suggests asking the following questions:

• How long have you been performing breast surgery?
• Are you board certified?
• Where will my surgery be performed?
• What types of breast surgeries do you perform?
• How often do you perform breast implant procedures?
• What types of implants do you use?
• What is the most common complication you encounter?
• What is your general complication rate?
• What is your reoperation rate?
