I'm in the Toronto area (Oshawa) but am going to Mexico for my plastics in May. I have heard good things about Dr. Edelstien in Toronto, and i have a friend who is having a tummy tuck in May by a Doc in Scarborough. I'll ask her whom next week at work.
Have you everchecked out the rateyourmd.com
a site where people go and rate different doctors based on results, bedside manner etc etc.
There is a Doctor in whitby that I have been warned against (Dr.Kara)
I have had about 5 or 6 different people including my gp tell me not to go to him for anything.
