Tammie from York, 31, had a breast enlargement and tummy tuck with The Hospital Group. She first considered having cosmetic surgery around nine and a half years ago and was recommended to The Hospital Group by a family friend. ”My family were extremely supportive because they knew that it meant a lot to me. I went to my local clinic and had a consultation with a patient advisor who was the loveliest woman I’ve met and through my consultation she explained everything and put me at ease.

“I went to the consultation with a long list of questions and she gave me as much time as I needed. Then I went back to see the surgeon, also with a massive list of questions and again he was very reassuring, and I decided to book my surgery.

I went to Manchester, the The Pines, for my surgery and everything about it was 100%. I felt well taken care of, and it was actually very enjoyable experience.

After having my son, obviously as a new mother, you feel different. I decided to go for the tummy tuck. Now I’ll wear a bikini on holiday, which I wouldn’t before because I was conscious of my stomach.

To anyone considering cosmetic surgery, I’d say do your research – internet, before and after pictures – and just make sure that you are sure that this is for you.

I would 100% recommend The Hospital Group. It’s made a massive difference to my life, my confidence especially, and being able to do things with my children such as days out. I feel confident about the way I look and it’s just changed my life really.”
