Dear Dr. Randy
It has been six weeks since my surgery and I really wanted to write a recommendation for you regarding my surgery so here goes.

I had a full Tummy tuck with hip and waist liposuction in August 2007 and I can honestly say that I am more than pleased with my results.

The care I received was excellent, as a very senior NHS nurse, I had set very high standards as to what I expected from not only the cosmetic surgery but the before and after care, I was not disappointed with any part of my care while home here in Glasgow and during my stay in Budapest. I felt important and that you cared as much about my results as I did, at no point did I feel like just another patient. In fact, I almost felt like your only patient! Here is a brief outline of my experience in Budapest:-)

As promised I was collected at the airport and met at my hotel by Dr Randy Simor. The following day I met Dr R. who was, kinda weird if I’m honest, but a brilliant surgeon who actually listened to me and treated me with dignity and respect at all times. He proved this when it became time to remove my clothes, I’m British and don’t do nudity!! He was aware of how uncomfortable this was for me and made it as painless as possible, not only while getting my photograph taken but as I waited for my general anaesthetic - a male nurse started to attach ECG leads to me and removed my blanket, he stopped him, covered me up and told them, in English,” not until she’s asleep”. He has no idea how grateful I was for that small gesture and how much it relaxed me and made me feel that I was a person to him and not just a patient.

The hospital I was treated in was very clean and the nurses very attentive, although not much English was spoken, it didn’t prove a problem as they gave me a list of words that I could point to when I needed something. The thing that impressed me the most was that I didn’t need to ask for anything, everything just turned up, painkillers, anti sickness pills, food, water more pillows etc. Even Dr R. never seemed to leave the building as he was always popping in and out and helped me set up my lap top, in my experience no NHS surgeon thinks they have time to sit with a patient and fix their computer! I have absolutely no complaints regarding my time as an inpatient in Budapest.

Aftercare was just as good; Randy collected me from hospital and took me to buy some supplies like water and fruit he then personally made sure I was returned safely to my hotel. He telephoned and texted me everyday, just to check I was ok and didn’t need anything. He also offered to visit anytime I needed him but being a private person I was happy with a simple phone call to check I was ok. I had to visit the surgeon a few times due to minor complaints, which felt like the end of the world at the time. I needed reassurance and support and called Randy he was by my side minutes after I called him he calmed me down and helped me to speak to the surgeon. He was like a breath of fresh air! Without his assistance I would have felt lost and helpless, especially with the language barrier. Back home I still have his mobile number and feel I can call anytime no matter how minor I feel my question is.
My scar is minimal, my new figure is emerging and I am very thankful to both Randy and Dr R. for helping me through all the ups and downs of cosmetic surgery, especially Randy. Thank you so much for being there for me and helping me to find my old self again.
