Inserted a breast implant size far different from any authorized size

Botched:
Dr. Groves read another patient’s medical file and inserted the wrong size implants.
Prior to the surgery, I authorized Dr. Groves to implant one of three sizes. I did not authorize him to deviate from the operative plan. During surgery, Dr. Groves reviewed the wrong patient’s file. He then inserted a size far different from any authorized size. In the operative note he wrote, “I felt this was the correct size for her.”
Six days post-surgery, at my first post-op appointment, Dr. Groves acknowledged he had
reviewed a different patient’s file. His exact words were, “I looked at the wrong note. I looked at the wrong sizes. So, it was all on me.” Because of his malpractice, I had to recover from one botched surgery knowing I would have to undergo another surgery and painful recovery.
I am happy to discuss my experience with anyone considering undergoing a procedure.
