HELP!!! My surgeon retired, what do I do? I'm so unhappy :( (Photos_

I am sorry to hear you are in a bind. Hopefully, the office where you were treated had made arrangement for coverage for cases such as yourself. There is really no way for anyone to know what financial arrangements might have been made by your retiring surgeon. If there is a way for you to contact him, that might be best. 

Every office will have different policies and hopefully there was an arrangement in place for this type of thing. The first thing to do is speak with the office manager about whether you'd be paying again and if so are you paying full price or is there a discount. You can decide based on that whether you want to continue with his partner or not. Best of luck! 

If you continue with the same practice, it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect that the fees would be reduced or accommodated.  Much will depend upon the agreements-both the one that you signed and the one between the partners. Best wishes.

Sorry to hear about your difficult  journey.  Unfortunately in combination surgery with augmentation and mastopexy revisionary surgery is not uncommon. Prior to your consultation, I would discuss with the cosmetic coordinator what the revision policy is with the practice so you know what to expect.  Each office handles secondary procedures differently so having this information up front will be helpful.  In addition, you could seek consultation with other local plastic surgeons to receive alternate opinions.   If possible request a copy of your operative notes so that each surgeon can have a detailed description of what was already done by your previous surgeon.  Best of luck.

I am sorry to hear about your concerns after breast augmentation/lifting surgery.  This combination surgery is one of the most challenging operations we perform and it is not unusual for patients to benefit from additional surgery to improve the initial outcome. It will be important to you undergo revisionary breast surgery by a board certified plastic surgeon who can demonstrate lots of experience helping patients with revisionary surgery; make sure this is the case, for example with the plastic surgeon who has taken over your previous plastic surgeon's practice. Online consultants will not be able to predict what the financial arrangements will be;  this is one of those situations where "time will tell" as you have your consultations.Best wishes.
