If you’re looking for a surgeon who’s an expert at the top of his field, has meticulous attention to detail and really cares about his patients, then look no further than Mr Wilson. I’m a 58 year old woman who was left with diastasis recti (divarification) following my pregnancy with my big baby boy when I was 43. After 4 days of labour he was finally delivered by emergency c-section, but not before the damage had been done. I went on to have my baby girl when I was 45, delivered by planned c-section. I couldn’t decide whether to have surgery or not and have mulled it over for the past 13 years. There are always risks with any surgery and I had to weigh up whether I thought it was worth it or not. I carried out extensive research and made an appointment with Mr Wilson. I wasn’t sure what to expect, would he think I was silly having an abdominoplasty at 58 years old. I needn’t have worried. He was sympathetic and understanding. He went through the procedure carefully, explaining all of the risks to help me make an informed decision. I decided I would go ahead and had my operation on 30th November 2021. I didn’t really know what to expect, how it would look. I tried looking at other people’s before and after pictures, but still found it hard to imagine how I would look. Well, all I can say, is “wow”. I’m 9 weeks post surgery and cannot believe the results, I look the same as before I had my babies. I’m amazed and absolutely thrilled with the outcome. The recovery wasn’t without discomfort, but it went smoothly. Mr Wilson visited every day to check on me and I felt safe in his care. I followed his instructions to the letter, getting up and walking hourly the day after surgery to help prevent a DVT from forming, which I’m pleased to say, didn’t. I had no complications, no infection, no collection of blood or fluid after the drains were removed on the second day. I was able to lie on my side at 2 weeks and made it fully upright at 4½ weeks. I’m now looking forward to starting Pilates to look after my new shape. My only remaining question of myself is “why on earth did I wait so long?”. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr Wilson; I think he’s simply brilliant. If you have any questions, worries or doubts he’ll be able to answer them and put your mind at rest. He won’t try and talk you into or out of having surgery but help you to make an informed decision.
