Motivated by pain and discomfort for several years. I have 12 years of clinical documentation for TX of shoulder, neck and back pain - STILL not covered by UHC. I had no choice but to finance...i interviewed 3 ps's, and came back full circle to Dr. Sterkin. Office acknowledgement and scheduling issues could use some work, but Dr. Sterkin himself was fantastic. Very meticulous, honest, and above all, skilled. I am 5 days post op, he removed over 1600 gr of tissue and I feel fantastic . He even made a trip on his day off to remove my drains! I am almost pain free already - spine and shoulder pain is already gone. Updated on 2 Nov 2015:
Had breast reconstruction done with Dr Sterkin, he was fine at first but overtime time became rude and impatient. Multiple infections after surgeons with him and many mistakes made as well ines that took many surgeries to try and correct, I've never been so unhappy with how my body looks! Thanks for nothing!
It is helpful to gently displace smooth round breasts implants to keep them soft. This is usually started at 1 - 2 weeks after surgery. Put your hand over flat over the breast and push the implant towards the chest wall gently moving the breast implant up, in, down and out 20- 30 seconds in each direction 3 times a day for 6 months then twice a day for 6 months. This can be done upright but is best done while supine. As your discomfort resolves you will be able to perform these massage exercises more easily. Your surgeon may alter these instructions as needed. Use of a moisturizing lotion may help to condition the skin.
