How do you find a plastic surgeon who is right for you? In the premiere episode of In the BEST of HANDS: The Plastic Surgery Podcast, Dr. Jason Rosenberg and his co-host Meredith Reis dig into how best to evaluate physicians in order to find the best match for your circumstance.. Whether it's for an elective cosmetic procedure or reconstruction after mastectomy, they’'ll cover the questions and concerns you should be on the lookout for as you research and meet with doctors.

It's more than just finding someone with the right experience: it's about finding a doctor you also click with and can trust. Plus, the pair kicks off a new recurring segment, Aesthetic Etiquette. Their first topic: is it ever okay to ask someone if they've had work done?
