run far away from this man!!!
WARNING!!… Please do not go to Nuance with Kenneth Sumida! He may have done some surgery that was ok but when he does a botch job, he lies and tells you he will do a revision but then refuses to do it. He tried saying it was my back that was causing the unevenness and not his work. I went to 2 other surgeons to show them what Sumida did to me and to get their opinion on how to fix it. Both surgeons were shocked over what Sumida did to me and even more surprised he refuses to give me a revision. Both told me it Can be fixed but removing breast tissue from the larger one to make them even and then giving me the lift I paid for but Sumida didn’t do. I had trust in Sumida because he did do a tummy tuck for me years ago. He tells you if you are not happy he WILL fix it but then told me no when I wasn’t happy with my lift. He laughed in my face when I told him I found a surgeon who can fix it! He told me he could “cut my [RS bleep] breasts off and then they’ll be even” “I can break your [RS bleep] back but I don’t want to go that drastic” his final words to me were “you can [RS bleep]  sue me but you won’t get anything!” He is so arrogant to think his work is always great and he never makes mistakes!! He’s also a liar because he flat out told me if I wasn’t happy at the 4 month post op then he would fix it. So he gave me relief knowing I can get it fixed. But at the 4 month post op he was full of “I can’t” and foul language! I won’t say how this was all settled but I will be posting my results from my other surgeon after fixing this botch job from Sumida.

run far away from this surgeon

Horrible! Run away from this office as fast as you can! I paid Sumida $15k for a breast lift/augmentation and walked out worse than before I went in. After 3 weeks I told him I wasn’t happy because one dropped and it was smaller than the other. He tried telling me that was my body and not his surgery! Please! He told me he didn’t want to hear any complaints until the 4 month post op and if I was still unhappy, he would fix it. Well, he has refused to fix his doings! I told him I still wasn’t happy so he asked me what I wanted him to do. I said make them even. He said he can’t and asked again what do you want me to do. I told him lift them like they should be and make them the same size. He again told me he can’t do that. He told me 3 times he can make me even and lifted like I want. He failed to do it saying he can’t after he took my money and did the surgery!. Then give me back my money so I can go somewhere where they can fix it!!! I went to 2 other surgeons and was told by both it can be fixed! I don’t know what the numbers mean but I was told I went from a 29 to a 27 but my lift should be at 22 for best results. Sumida told me, “you can sue me but you won’t get anything!” Please people run away fast! He gave me trust knowing we can do a revision if I wasn’t happy, but after the surgery he denied my revision.
