So Disappointed, and Cannot Afford a Third Surgery
MORE Surgery and ANOTHER Fat Transfer
Provider Review
At first I felt I had made the correct choice going with Dr. Larry Lickstein. He answered my questions in detail and never acted as if I was "bothering him". He didn't really rush me through consultations or appointments. He returned calls and emails promptly (as did my coordinator Christina. The night of my first surgery he called my husband to check on me and to see if we had any questions. The staff seem nice and professional. The nurses took time with me and explained things. That being said, I gave an overall rating of only 1 star b/c the reason I came to see him was because of my neck , and it is still not "fixed". I was also told that I'd have to pay a portion to have it corrected (which I already paid for), and that surgery is "unpredictable". This was not the attitude I initially encountered (sunshine, rainbows and unicorns). The fat transfer "did not take". Also, I was told by another surgeon last week (he is on this site with many excellent ratings) that he "was way, way too conservative with your fat transfer!". He said I look "hollow". Hopefully this will be resolved b/c every time I have to send $$$$ to Care Credit for this I want to cry. -Update Nov 2015 with a revision Macs Lift/Neck Lift/Fat Transfer with Dr. Lickstein ~ I have emailed my patient coordinator Christina with pictures explaining to her that $1000's and $1000's of dollars later my neck has fallen into the same position with the revision as it was with the first surgery. I still haven't heard back from her. Before she was very quick to respond. Dr. Larry Lickstein left Belecara a couple of weeks ago. I don't know what is going on. All I know is I'm STILL paying on surgeries that failed.
