How to approach consultation(s) for revision–given that the original surgeon is senior and well-known in my area?

Asked By:Heather176 in New York, New York

I would like to consult for revision liposuction (due to very poor results from the primary). The original surgeon is senior and well-known in the field and in my area. I met with one doctor, but when I told him who the original surgeon was, he dismissed me, telling me to go back to that surgeon. Treating me may have been less important for him than avoiding potentially impairing his relationship with my original surgeon, by performing a revision on that surgeon’s former patient. How to proceed?
