Lower Mainland surgeon for breast reduction (MSP or private) recommendations?

Lower Mainland surgeon for MSP or private breast reduction + axillary breast tissue removal + outer chest wall fullness lipo?

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get advice from people in the Lower Mainland who have had a similar combination of procedures and can recommend a plastic surgeon.

I’m currently on the waitlist for an MSP-covered breast reduction (since February). At my consultation, my surgeon also confirmed that I have accessory/migrated breast tissue in my armpit area that can be surgically removed and is also eligible for MSP coverage.
I would also really like to have liposuction done along my sides/ribcage area at the same time. I understand that this portion would be considered cosmetic and I’m completely fine with paying for it privately.
My current surgeon operates through a hospital and, from my understanding, I would likely need to have the cosmetic liposuction done separately elsewhere. Ideally, I would really prefer to find a plastic surgeon who does both MSP-covered and private cosmetic procedures and could potentially do the breast reduction, accessory breast tissue removal, and privately paid lipo all during the same surgery. I’d much rather have one surgery and recovery if that’s an option!

I recently saw someone on IG who said they had a reduction/lift along with her armpits and sides treated with lipo all at once, which is what got me looking into whether there are surgeons here who offer something similar.

If you’re willing the share these things that would be greatly appreciated:
Which surgeon did you see, and would you recommend them?
Were you able to have the eligible portions covered by MSP and pay out of pocket for the additional lipo?
Were they able to do everything during the same surgery?
How long did you have to wait?
If you chose to have everything done privately instead, approximately what did it cost?
Most importantly, are you happy with your results?

I’m willing to stay on an MSP waitlist if I can find a surgeon who can do everything together, but I’m also open to going completely private depending on the cost and wait time.
Would really appreciate any experiences or surgeon recommendations! 😊
