Started noticing a double bubble at about 2 weeks post op

ORIGINAL POST

Would not recommend Dr. J Dan Metcalf

$3,900
6 months post op, started noticing a mild double bubble at about 2 weeks post op. Told him about my concerns, he said he didn’t see it & to let him know if it changed. It’s continuously gotten worse, & I’ve kept him updated with pictures. Saw him yesterday about it & he said it’s mild double bubble, but should “continue to improve for up to 2 years after surgery.” He also said I may have mild capsular contracture of the same breast. He didn’t give me instructions, nor medication for capsular contracture, or even tell me what to do from here. When I asked about a revision, he said he would do it, but wants almost full price to do it. He’s only willing to give me a discount of $500 from his price of a breast augmentation. His website states he has a “lifetime warranty” for all of his patients, and waives his surgeons fee, and all I’m responsible for is the implants, OR, and anesthesia. When I asked his billing lady for a breakdown of the revision fees, she told me they don’t do that. He literally laughed as I was expressing my concerns, knowing I drive over 3 hours one way to see him. I’m now looking for a new doctor for my revision.

Do you have pictures to show what is going on?
Yes, I’ve taken pictures often throughout the past 11 months since surgery. Did you use him as well?
No but he has come highly recommended by several people. So I was curious as to what happened with you
I have photos on some of my questions in my member profile.
Run!!!!! Do not let this “doctor” touch you or your loved ones. He uses no anesthesiologist, just a person he trained. He over medicates after surgery and leaves his patients vulnerable and in danger. He’s cheap for a reason. His office is filthy, he does not have biohazard bags or even clean instruments in the rooms. Taking off a sterile bandage with clerical scissors, no gloves and food in his mouth. Dropped cracker crumbs on an 1St day post op visit and just brushed it off with a bare hand. He is 80 years old!!!! Time to stop doc before you kill someone else,
Did you have a bad experience? He’s come highly recommended and I have 2 friends with AMAZING results.
Did you end up getting your done I have my appointment scheduled for next week and now I'm freaking out also have a friend that highly recommend him
