Breast Augmentation

I am not alone in my experience, it seems. BW has threatened patients with lawsuits in response to negative reviews, according to imaging of letters/docs from his lawyer that I've now seen.

Sometimes subjects of negative reviews claim defamation. This doesn't seem like a viable claim to me, because reviews are inherently opinions. Unless someone states something categorically false, it isn't defamation. There is also such a thing as strategic litigation, so-called SLAPP suits, where the lawsuit is intended to censor, intimidate, and silence critics by burdening them with the cost of a legal defense until they abandon their criticism or opposition, i.e., leveraging one's own wealth/power against the average person's inability to sustain an expensive legal defense.

If a surgeon is willing to menace reviewers with litigation to protect a reputation he doesn't deserve, I think this says something about his psychological stability and his character. I also think it suggests that there is negative testimony that is being suppressed.

I believe that working with Dr. Weintraub was one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made in my life. I will spend the rest of it living with the consequences. I consider the results I obtained at his office to be disfiguring. Having consulted with several other board-certified and prestigious plastic surgeons, I believe that this outcome is the result of poor surgical judgment, not spontaneous or unforeseeable complications.
I also gave him multiple opportunities to revise the surgery with--I believe any reasonable person would think--increasingly poor results (see photos below). He even admitted in his operative report that he performed a surgery against his better judgement. I am now having to spend tens of thousands of dollars to have at least one complicated and invasive ~ 5 hour surgery and may have more.
This doctor has a history of several medical malpractice lawsuits in NY state. I also suggest reading about a judgment against him in a bankruptcy case, in which the judge accuses him of lying in his testimony and trying to defraud the court. All of this is a matter of publicly available court records.
FYI, he offered me a partial refund in exchange for an NDA. I refused to take it. Not everyone has the financial means to turn down such an offer. I do wonder how many patients are out there who have had similar experiences but can't talk about them due to NDAs.
