Breast Augmentation Nightmare

I received a breast augmentation with Dr. Smith in September of 2017. I finally saved enough money to be able to afford the $6300 surgery. After the procedure I had complications of capsular contracture in both breasts. Therefore, I had to schedule a revision surgery. I went for that procedure in February of 2018, which he charged me an additional $1000. Immediately after the procedure when I came to, I noticed two drains, which was never explained to me. I was shocked to wake up to it without being consulted, but now I have no choice. This was upsetting because now i have additional scarring. When it came to the point of getting my drains removed, Dr. Smith felt I was ready to have them removed. On the other hand, one of his many assistants indicated she didn't think one drain was ready to be removed. She was right. I, once again, developed capsular contracture in my right breast. I asked about another revision surgery, which he wanted to charge me an additional $2000 for. I was already hesitant to receive a 3rd surgery from a doctor who claims to be one of the best within the country so I refused. Unfortunately, this was far from the only problem I had with Dr. Smith. The initial surgery price took care of medication and blood work. I was surprised to see that with the following surgery, I had to come out of pocket for the medication and blood work after spending $7300. Also, after the revision surgery, during my visit the day after the surgery, he said it slipped his mind to put my nipple in the right place and laughed about it! Yea, that's right. Because getting cut open multiple times is funny. On top of that, each time I had an appointment with Dr. Smith, I would be in the waiting room for approx. 2 hours waiting for my turn. I NEVER received any before/after photos as promised and no follow ups after I refused a 3rd procedure. It is now May of 2019 and I still have capsular contracture in my right breast. It took me so long to write a review because I really dont like to write negative reviews but I felt this was necessary due to his lack of compassion or care of his patients. I just had a Skype interview with the casting producer of the E! show Botched. Hopefully, I will be chosen to show my story so people can see what Dr. Smith has left me with. Please do your research and consider other doctors. Ive heard nothing but good things about Dr. Pancholi so look into him. Good luck with your procedure and I really hope you don't go through what I did!
