What Happened to Caring for One Another and Not the Almighty Dollar?! - New York, NY

Who said he was a salesman? You seem very defensive.. note the word ''NOT'',as if you feel the need to protect his character. I was a patient of Dr.S and Id like to inform you, Dr.Schwarcz told my friend and I that plastic surgeons are salesman.Said" they are trying to sell you their services",Seems to make sense, as most people go to plastic surgeons for an elective proceedure. There is alot of competition to get you, the consumer to give them your money for a proceedure. That is a salesman. I dont understand your anger. Thats wonderful things worked out for you.

This is peace01 I see there was some kind of mistake made on this site. DR Goldstein never did surgery on me.I only went to Dr.G for a consultation. Dr.S is who I was talking about when I was talking about the surgeries ,dont know why that went under DR.G. The 2nd and 3rd paragrafts are for Dr.G why it was repeated twice dont know. The paragraft with his picture is also wrong that was refering to Dr.S of NY again dont know why this happened.But I wanted to clairify this.Sorry for the confussion

Your website said you do the kind of revision I needed,when I asked to see pictures, you said ''you had none'' ,and that you didnt really do the surgery I needed.As for you saying you didnt do any surgeries on me,never said you did.When I was in your office and mentioned Dr.S you stated ''he is one of the best''. Which I was taken back by ,because here I am, in your office, worse off after Dr.S did surgeries on me.So why that statement? You also didnt tell me to go back to DrS .I really wish doctors would keep it real.I think laws to be set in some changes made, like consultations should be recorded and patients get copies,so theres no more he said,she said.I think ill get started on that by contacting my state representive.Since I have,and many others have encountered so much lying in this field to cover up and protect doctors.Per: writing anything in patients charts to make it favorable for the doctors,theres another idea patients should have the right to read the chart and have to sign off on it,and get a copy.This should benifit the patient and the doctors

.I agree with both. I grew up in orphanages,foster homes,groupe homes.Everyone told me I was pretty,but I couldnt see it,got plastic surgery on my face,thinking If I was pretty someone would love me. Surgery ended up disfiguring me.Ive had 5 rconstructive surgeries,!st original surgeon-worse.2nd surgeon did 2more surgeries-worse 3rd doctor gave rest of my savings $20,000 .prior asked if I should wait since I had so many surgeries within a year 1/2,said no its fine.I was devistated at this point.My first consultation I was crying trying to let him know all the surgeries Id been through,even had friend in room, I couldnt at this point grasp anything. I just had to get fixed,I was a bartender.Not much education lived on streets as a teenager.And needed to have my face fixed,No job=no home.I have since been diagnosed wth PTSD,I apparently had it all my life I was tortured at 3yrs old, hasnt been an easy life anyway was told that im having more flashbacks and other problems,beceause of all the problems due to the plastic surgery.its been,2yrs since last surgery,5yrs that my life has stopped,I just exsist. Why if a patient comes to you crying and devistated,obviously not of sound mind,tell them its ok to do the surgery?I dont understand this , should have had me or anyone evaluated first,but no,why is it all about the money.From my experience it seems so, I just saw on here the lady who wanted breast implants and she held a sign sitting on a motorcycle,dr.giving her FREE surgery,Im now broke,in pain,disfigured dont know where to turn I wish someone would help give me my life back,and all this cause I wanted to be "pretty"so someone would love me,Ironic now people see what Ive always seen when I looked in the mirror.If there is a OCULAR PLASTIC SURGEON,who does free reconstruction,like the doctor who gave fee implants, would you please help me.please.

I would really be interested to know what percentage of plastic surgeons turn someone down.My guess very few
