Hi Angie. Im am still in process of seeking many 2nd opinions bcs I also found that Dr. did not fully repair my upper diastasis recti during t/t so I am left with repairing that as well. He expected me to pay several thousands to go back to hospital for repairs. Lost trust. Lots of fat grafts and repeat t/t is needed, therefore, lots more expense, pain, suffering that may not repair fully. So scared.

Absolutely! No question that was the problem. That is why I am sharing my experience and listed him. Hope it saves others from him or gets them to speak out of him as well.

Hi ALL. So relieved to find others with terrible outcomes, yet feel bad 4 all of you as well to have to endure this. I have gone thru exactly the same thing. Was only to have t/t to fix separated muscle after baby and lipo to flanks (lovehandle area) and somehow came out w/o muscles repaired and buttocks damaged and droopy. NEVER discussed or even hinted to have buttocks touched!! That is the hardest part to digest. I won a hot buns contest years ago. I did not and would never have agreed to have it touched. He was negligent, didnt mark me. This would have allowed me to confirm what areas he was planning and correct him. Now he is lying. Trying to say I just I have drug amnesia. I have photos the night of it to prove NO marks! It takes weeks to get that ink off. Now R hip and butt with major pain &nerve damage. I might accept that there was a risk of damage to the area I asked for and paid for, but not to an area I didnt ask for or pay for. Took away all my curve on R side so pants fall cricked. Having a part done that you didnt discuss and will be impossible long road and expense to repair w/ fat grafts ect feels like rape! Even I know that when you lay down your butt spreads out and will look bigger than it is. If he would have marked me, it would have been clear to him what parts were distorted! There must be something we all can do! Cant believe this is happening to people and yet the DR is NOT held responsible. People that have the wrong body part operated on any other time can sue right? I have been searching for help and support groups. We need support groups for this. It makes you feel hopeless and helpless and David vs. Goliath... Makes suicide seem like only way out. All I wanted was to get back to my baby.. now nightmare has begun with no end and my family will suffer all bcs the dr was lazy.

OMG, Hi Angie. I just noticed your post. Thank you so much for asking. I havent been on here in a while bcs I have been so tied up with getting 2nd and 3rd opinions on how to repair the damages. Told I need major fat grafting to try and fill in damage to buttock and hip. But even that usually does not take and needs several repeat attempts. Still have severe pain and nerve damage. My pants wont stay up on R side. May even have to consider lawsuit. All I wanted was my separated stomach muscles repaired to function and get back to my baby! Told tummy tuck needs redone as well. Very scared and lost. Need someone to talk to but such a private embarrasing issue.
