Had breast reduction around 9 hrs ago. are thrilled. surgeon removed 650 grams from each breast. shoulders and neck feeling better already. They look perky and a lot smaller. axillary breast tissue was removed from under arms as well. No regrets

I trusted Dr Sawhney with my life. He advised me to have implant removal and breast transfer in one operation. It was two years ago I am still suffering . I was a public patient, sick from implant disease, waiting on a list to have them removed. I went to him as he was the emergency surgeon for public and to ask to put me up on the list. He told me I could not handle it and needed to come and see him to have it done all at once privately. I borrowed 25k for the first op, after it one of the breasts scar bulged and overhung and was smaller than the other, he booked me in for another operation 10months later for a scar revision, another 15k, including a dog ear from previous surgery. Despite my Gp advice not to have a lengthy surgery for health reasons, too much anesthesia etc and Sawhney having full information regarding an old spine injury, Also that I was underweight, he operated for 3.5hrs, and did another fat transfer to the wrong breast, cut both sides of my hips, took fat from my hips and legs, very uneven and my lower back, without my consent. I am permanently damaged, in pain, and cannot walk. My legs have 12cm long gaping holes in them, and my right leg cannot straighten any longer. This has caused my spine to seize and as there is no longer fat in that area, I can't stand straight now. He cut a dog ear on my left hip, which he was told explicitly could not be touched, so wearing clothing, or a belt is excruciating. He took all the fat from my hips, there was hardly any there to begin with , and he was aggressive, and so I have myofascial chronic scarring throughout the entire lower part of my body. I cannot wear clothing properly anymore, I have no curves left on my body, jeans/ clothes fall down. I am in constant grief and pain daily, my life was ruined. Dr Sawhney became aggressive and angry after the first operation, and shouted at me, called me names, a complainer, and that I would not find a better surgeon on the Gold Coast than him as the scarring and transfer to one breast had not worked. I have had orthopaedic surgeon and other leading plastic surgeons assess the damage, and they told me that it is so extensive , it cannot be fixed. To get relief from the dragging skin will cost another 25k, which I don't have, and cannot work anymore. My life has been shortened, my body will never be the same, and the pain will never leave. I was a healthy and fit person before this who exercised daily, toned skin, and now struggle to get out of bed. One doctor had tears in his eyes, when he saw what I looked like in pictures just before the operation, he said, that Sawhney made me look like a boy. He was reported to Aphra, and I do not recommend this surgeon, he does not care past the $$, and does not follow up if something goes wrong. In fact, he said he could not remember doing any surgery on me, gaslighted me when I went to him in shock pleading for help afterwards. He deformed me, on parts of my body that didn't need surgery, but even worse took away any quality of life I had. I don't sleep, I can't walk far or exercise, I am only in my mid 50's in chronic pain. He took fat from my lower belly, which he was told not to touch at all, which mamed me, and so intimacy is no longer an option for me, I am loose skin and bones, and the fat is permanently removed, I will never recover, that is the advice from a leading plastic surgeon who repairs damage done by other surgeons, he said this was the worst he'd seen. His comment to me was, so much for the best surgeon on the coast. If I can help anyone at all, don't settle for one surgeon, go to many to see the different systems and advice, but mostly their follow up, and demand an itemised invoice for any surgery you are having. Dr Sawhney is a bully, an angry egomaniac that has retaliatory conviction if you make any complaint. Its clear he did this on purpose to me, as he operated in all the parts we discussed could not be operated on. On the day of the surgery, I was locked in a room for 2 hours after he came in and drew all over my body and left, no discussion, he just said "there" and told me to look in the mirror, then exited in a hurry, I asked to speak to him again, I needed reassurance the markings were where he would not operate, the nurse told me he told him to tell me - if I didn't like it to go home. I was naked in a gown, about to have surgery, he refused to speak to me, and I was then into surgery. I have nightmares daily about that, and the lack of duty of care for something so very serious, and permanent to ones life. I was terrified. Make sure you have your invoice itemised specifically to what you need to be done. The surgeon I saw after for help, measures your BMI and won't operate if it is not right, underweight. He said I was way below the scale. The surgery should not have taken place. He thought I had gone to a cosmetic surgeon, not board certified when he first saw my body. That' how bad Dr Sawhney damaged me.
