Okay ladies so I contacted the office again this...
$8,000
Okay ladies so I contacted the office again this morning to let them know about my Seroma. The lady that answered was more than helpful and she told me to text salama I just did and he texted me back immediately. To get this straight I am very happy I chose dr salama and I would chose him again. The only thing I was upset about was the garment problem and the phone tag I played in the beginning of the week. Ill update about what's going on later! Love u all!!!

Try contacting them again and depending on your city maybe they know a doctor they can refer you to. However, you will have to foot the bill and submit it for reimbursement to the insurance company if you purchased it. Otherwise, keep looking. It is very important to remember post op care in the event that you have an issue when you get home and lots of women do not plan for this. The garment sizes have always been an issue as i was placed in a 2xl post op and i went into surgery at 167lbs. Hence, i developed a seroma. Good luck! Compression is key.

Thank you for the advice. I got my fluid drained in the er today and now it's back... Does it ever go away? I ordered a waist chincer but I haven't gotten it yet, is it too early to wear only a waist chincer being 2 weeks post op. thank you!!

Based on my results if it comes back the fluid should be less and less each time. Keep the area compressed after drainage by using extra foam in that area. But thats my advice. Also u need a tight garment or cincher in that area. Call the office. They should tell you what to do once it is drained.

Seems like most doctors don't care after surgery but little do they know tht same patient in need can make or break their biz, sad. It is ironic tht they gave u wrong compression size but preached to missmiami abt the importance of the right compression. I'm sorry u hv a seroma. I hope it gets resolved.

This is what I hate reading about Dr. Salama and I'm so glad I didn't put a deposit. His staff is great but once they have your money and surgery is over? YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. I hope you feel better and so sorry you are going through this. I really do not see salama lasting too long

Yea, I'm really happy with my results and when I was down there I had a positive expieriance except the garment thing but now I don't know what to do and it seems I'm on my own.

I have seen every doctor on here with patients with seromas( everyone of them) they are common even with a tt. Some get them some don't our bodies are all different. My experience was positive also I didn't feel like a number (where'd that come from anyway) eventually everybody's seroma leaves. Unfortunately if we live out of state we can't always just up and go back and other drs don't wanna deal with it. Good luck.

I said tht I was happy with my results and had a positive expierance until the garment problem and the way they treated me on the phone. I did feel like a number bc I only saw salama for maybe 15 minutes the whole week I was down there and it was intirely too busy. Thanks for the advice.

Wow the only day it was busy was on Wednesday when I was there it was so busy people were standing in the hallway I think that may be a consult day if u text Rueben he always answer your text or calls you back good luck again

So like all of dr s other patients, I too have...
So like all of dr s other patients, I too have developed a Seroma.. I'm really upset bc for the week I was down there I was never given the correct garment bc the office was out of stock of size med. hence I was in a size large stage one garment until the day before leaving where I was crammed into a sz s that had to be cut many different ways for me to fit even Eileen said this garment was way too small... Anyways since the garment was cut so many time it began to rip and rip until it became nothing more than shreads unable to wear. One side is Completely gone. Now I have major fluid build up on my lower left side of my stomach and I called the office and all they said was yeah u need to get it drained by a dr .,,, well long story short NO doctor will touch me and I was forced to go to the emergency room. Where I am right now and have been for 6 hrs I've called the office many times but they don't care after surgery you are on your own. If you think they will help you find a dr or anything your wrong. Any advice from ladies that have had fluid drained is very appreciated!! I really don't want this coming back but I think it will....
