After 40 Years-Still Angry

Updated 15 Jun 2009

Not Worth It
Spent: $725 in Westbury, New York

In 1962 and 1964 I had Rhinoplasty-The doctor said it would take two procedures because my nose was very bulbous-

During the second surgery he inserted a cartlidge that pushed up my nose and the result was more bulbous than ever-He wanted to do a third procedure, but he came on to me in his office-I ran out and never told my parents, afraid of what they might do.

I would have the surgery done today be a more competent doctor, but the cost is very high. I was a kid then and too scared to talk up-It has made a big impact on my self esteem-Fortunately I have great confidence in my work and dealings with people in my life.

My Doctor: Name not provided

He is probably dead by now and I have tried to find his son who was present at the second surgery. Now sure what I would say to Carl.
