From the ashes...wow I cannot believe it has been since 2014 that my journey began.
$52,000
It all started with a lift and small bilateral implants to help hold them in place, if I had known then what I know now I would have began with the right surgeon. Seven surgeries, and two years of surgery, attempts to correct his surgeries just made everything possible worse.
My original reason for the lift and implants were due to years of weight loss, aging (43), my breast tissue was lost in so much stretched skin I couldn’t keep them in my bra without checking them and tucking them in before
bending forward, had a few “woops” moments!
I am so happy to have found my amazing, Hero!!! incredibly talented, and trained beyond my hopes so close to my home in Idaho.
His bio was so impressive and it is more than enough to travel across the country to meet him and his incredible staff. I thought after 10years of the pain of the twisted and deep scars left by Dr Reath’s attempts to improve on what was referred to as “less than desirable outcomes”, my only choice to help me with the pain was to have the implants removed and I did by a very good plastic surgeon who gave me the best compassionate advice he could and he was correct in advising me to let my body and mind heal for at least a year, that was done, I had only been going through the trauma at that time for 2 years .Surgeons can understood why, the multiple issues from each consequential surgery massive hematoma’s ,scarring ,uneven breasts, (requiring a second breast lift, due to his poor surgery technique double bubble, severely mangled my breast and the implant were not under the muscle but the skin and breast tissue. I was left with no breast tissue over the implant of the left breast just a fine thinly veiled skin that you could feel and see the outline of the implant.
We moved across the country from Tennessee to Idaho, in 2016, I still had pain in my left breast with a deep breath or movement of the arm above my head as the knots of scarring deepened it looked as though I had only half a left breast and just a flat pendulous right breast.
In 2017 I began researching the medical community in the Southeast Utah area Salt Lake City has a marvelous teaching hospital and there are many to choose
from for reconstruction.
Well I live half way between SLC Utah and Idaho Falls Idaho. I had to wait 6!months for my new patient evaluation, I brought my previous surgeries along with me and It told the 4 years of procedures except for why he continued to repeat the surgery for a repeated statement “‘patient has less than desired results from the previous surgeries “. Thankfully I had kept a meticulous online journal along with all pictures post surgery and anytime I had to report another problem.
Now at 53 years of age, I cannot believe considering with what he had left to work with, that Dr Mark Freeman in Idaho Falls was able to restore the mangled mess left by a man that cared nothing for me, Dr. Freeman done for me what no other surgeons would. Don’t give up until you see Dr. Mark Freeman, his educational-& professional, clinical, and certifications in his field are unmatched. His staff know you by first name and offer to accommodate you in your experience with his practice.
Thanks to you again!!!(

I'm very grateful that you shared your experience here with us so that others researching surgeons can get the real reviews. I did notice that Dr. Reath has A LOT of one post reviews which trigger my 'fake" review radar. I know that if I were excited about my surgical outcome that I definitely would be posting LOTS of photos, keeping up with my healing progress, answering and asking questions, etc. He doesn't seem to have very many of those type of reviews that I would expect from a successful surgeon.
I do think he seems like a very nice man, but as we know that doesn't make you good at something. Hopefully he has perfected his craft and no one has to go through what you did.
I wish you well and happy healing! I hope that you now have the outcome that you tried to get the first time!
I know this review is old, but would love to know how you are doing now. Thanks again for the review! If you want to post photos of what he did that could be helpful to some also. It's okay if you don't want to, but it would definitely help people 'see' what might happen. Either way, thanks for your review!
