Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I made it to the other side but...

I made it to the other side but, I'm still huge and heavy. Thank God, I was accompanied by someone from Royal Victoria Hospital. She was a witness how terrible these nurses were. When someone tells you that
someone is having a vertigo attack, you don't force her to go to the bathroom, so she can go home. The nurse told me I have to pee now, since she needs to take her break. A nursing staff from RVH , whom I was with, introduce herself to this nurse to go on her break, while she can attend to me.
She could not believe her eyes what she saw , but she takes pride on being a nursing staff in RVH. She told me they do not treat patients at RVH this way.
My hospital experience was a nightmare and vowed never to go back to that hospital ever! so I will leave that horrible experience behind together with the fat taken off my breast.
However, I should commend the great surgical Team of Dr. Zelt and his assistant Dr. Collin.
They are both excellent PS! Apparently according to my sis-in-law, it took about a little less that 4 hours.
Unlike, other people, the neck, back and shoulder pain were not instant relieves. I had suffered from more back pain, itchiness and nausea. But that's just me.
January 13, Monday, I need to see my PS. my bandage feels like it is going to explode, so for relief, I cut them. Of course, my PS did not like it. There are more questions I would like to ask but, I did not have time to ask, he was a super busy PS. Thank God for the internet, answers are readily available.
Since , my next appointment with him will only be in a month. I booked an appointment with my family doctor this Friday. I have to ask his opinion on the rashes I acquired from the steri-strips.
Except for the heaviness and soreness of my breast, everything seems fine.

Not the call you want to hear...

Was waiting for a phone call from the hospital to inform me what time my surgery be. Instead, I got shocked when they reprimanded me I was a no show for the cardiologist today at 1:00 pm! What?
Anyway, the ECG has to be done again apparently, need a clearance from the heart specialist. If
its ok, then , surgery will push through tomorrow afternoon.

Honestly, I did not leave my house for good 2 weeks, so I will catch any virus at all so surgery will
push through. The pre-op was 20 days ago, and they were telling me only now that there is a problem? Depressed is an understatement. no words can describe what I am feeling today!

Shopping is fun.

Yesterday, I was looking for fruit of the loom brand front opening bra there's nothing at Walmart. In fact, there's nothing in the entire mall not even Sears carry a front opening bra. Went home empty handed. Have not shopped in a while but I needed a post surgery bra. So I decided to finally get it today at a medical store near my house. It costs me $ 50.00 for 2 bras. The saleslady/owner was happy to see me and she gave me a discount which was equivalent to 15% in taxes. She was very supportive and told me her 2 nieces had a breast reduction and happy with the result. She said she'd be happy to see me again after the surgery. She's nice.
Got home , washed and hang dry the bras. Not sure what it is but, I feel really weak.
I just stayed in the guest room so nobody can bother me and browse all the reviews of my real breast friends.
Thank goodness for this forum, I really felt I am not alone in this journey.
