Jan 13, 2026

I had struggled for years with ongoing low back pain and herniated discs from a difficult pregnancy and c- section delivery 30 years ago. Both the weight gain from pregnancy on my small frame and having the c section left me with an inability to correct and strengthen my abdominal muscles that had separated during pregnancy. Not surpring, I was also continually fighting lower tummy roles of loose skin and fat that wouldn't budge, no matter the level of good diet and exercise on my part.
I went to several surgeons in the Chattanooga area but it wasn't until I met Dr. Mccord that I knew who would be doing my Abdominoplasty, which included a complete muscle repair. It's not a surgery for the faint of heart, but if you follow her instructions, you will get thru it and be fine!
Dr. Mccord listened to my concerns and my desired outcome and understood this wasn't just about cosmetics, but I wanted to have my core back, strong and capable of supporting my active lifestyle and work. I could not be more pleased with the outcome! She truly is an artist who takes very seriously her patients needs and concerns from the beginning thru the end with follow up appointments. During my recovery period, we were all in the throws of Covid 19 so office appts were not happening,...instead she made sure to stay in touch with me thru personal phone calls and texts, checking on my progress and answering any questions I had.
If after pregnancy/pregnancies or even weight loss, you have abdominal and low back weakness as well as an unsightly tummy area you'd like to feel good about again, go see Dr. McCord for a consultation....you will NOT be disappointed...but strengthened in your body and in your self esteem. :) Last but not least, Dr. McCord has her own new solo practice that is a beautiful space centrally located in the Chattanooga area. Give her a call and together you will change your overall health in a huge way!
