I am a registered nurse and I have lost a large amount of weight and I had been looking for someone to perform my surgery but to read these comments, Dr. Lepore is not my Doctor of choice . SORRY doctor, I NEED a doctor to listen to me this is my body and I know what I want . You totally disrespected the young lady's body and disrpected her opionion, yes I am also a Black American. I will tell every sister to look else where that is looking for this type of surgery.
