This Dr. is HORRIBLE!!! He literally ruined my life!!! DO NOT GO TO HIM! HE’S NEGLIGENT & RECKLESS!!! I was a swim suit model. I purposely gained 15-20 lbs because I wanted thicker hips, thighs, more butt. I planned to have lipo on the small pooch on my tummy & shape my waist a little. When I woke up in recovery, I was in excruciating pain. My stomach felt like it was on fire! It was so intense! I knew something was very wrong. After an hour in recovery I was still crying in pain, mind you I have a high pain tolerance. I overheard him snap at a nurse “She’s still crying? I can hear her & she’s scaring the other patients!†He was referring to me! The nurse felt so bad, she said “I’m not supposed to give you another injection but your pain isn’t being controlled, your blood press. is up & that’s not good†She gave it to me & I got some relief. Little did I know this was just the beginning of my nightmare. I wore the garment as prescribed & followed his instructions to the “Tâ€. When I looked at my stomach the following day I knew something went wrong. It wasn’t just swelling. It was full of lumps, rolls, indentions & extremely visible lines & very obvious drop offs where he did not use the cannula. There was no blending at all. My entire stomach was uneven everywhere. I went into surgery w/a cute “inny†belly button & came out w/a deformed looking “outtie†similar to a hernia. I went in for my check up,he assured me it was just swelling & would look & feel fine in a month. It didn’t. I went back & showed him the disastrous results. He blamed me! He said “You must not have been wearing the garment I told you to wearâ€, “Some people heal differently than othersâ€, “I knew you should’ve had a tummy tuck, it’s loose skinâ€. OMG! There was absolutely nothing to tuck! I had ZERO loose skin! I was a swim suit model. Not only were the cosmetic results completely BOTCHED, I was in unbearable pain for over a year. It was debilitating. Putting on a shirt made my eyes water. Nobody could touch me anywhere on my stomach, waist, sides. It continued to feel like it was on fire, a constant intense burning. I went back again & asked him “ Please, help me, you have to do something about this. You messed up my stomach, my health, destroyed my source of income & this all has taken such a toll on my family†He said “Well, you’ve gained a few pounds so that’s why it looks that way.†Very indignant & unwilling to work with me. I explained I had not gained weight & didn’t want any fat taken out. I needed him to even out the bumpiness, rolls, indentions & lines all over my stomach & help me w/the pain. He agreed to, reluctantly. He was a complete jerk & totally insensitive. He had the NERVE to charge me $4000 to fix HIS mistake. I should’ve gone to someone else to fix it. In the end he evened out 2 small lumps at best. My stomach is destroyed. Thankfully, the burning was gone immediately when I woke up recovery. He’s a Self Centered, Arrogant, Narcissist! I knew that before the first surgery. I thought it was due to his confidence & skills. I would’ve sued him if he hadn’t had me sign something promising not to sue if I wasn’t happy w/results but to go through arbitration instead. I’ve kept tabs on him over the last 8 years & met a kind woman named Mari-Lu, who left a review similar to mine & who has been trying to sue him for ruining her breasts. I discovered that a few yrs. ago a woman he was performing/performed lipo on either died on his table or at a hospital but, her death was due to complications caused by lipo. For Mari-Lu Its been a 24 hr. Job for her to keep up w/motions, continuances & all other roadblocks & obstructions his Attorneys put in her way. This man should have his license pulled & should be charged with Criminal Negligence & Medical Malpractice. DO NOT GO TO HIM, it’s your life at stake.
