No Pre Op Care..Treated Awfully,like Joke.
$2,255
I had potential life threatening bleeding and have received no after care!
I am now receiving 'joke' emails from her nurse/secretary asking me to Skype her,which when I do,she 'seems' to have blocked me..This was after I told her I would complain to the GMC where she is supposedly registered in principle. In fact she is NOT registered! I am now going in touch with a solicitor,who takes on 'botched' overseas cosmetic surgery cases.

The surgeon was great and then I had complecations!
This surgeon is NOT who she portrays to be..She has left my body deformed and refuses to acknowledge the fact that I needed post op care..She is very cuddly and warm,but under all this persona,is not the warm human being she makes out. I had a simple seroma,which she left and it became a hematoma mass,very hard and painful.

I too was fooled by her warm and fuzzy persona but even the best of us can be fooled. I too had major complications that required a major procedure to fix her mistake. Plus the pain and suffering I endured even though I went back to her three times in the first year and she said it was nothing.
Let me tell you it was a big SOMETHING!!!! The pain, down time, cost involved was horrendous and I still suffer everyday. Sadly she has our money with a care factor of zero.
Bewared of Laderma Clinic, Dr S Cerna. If you complain its always your fault and she turns nasty. She was in a bad way emotionally due to a break up and talked about becoming a lesbian all the time looking at my breasts. Scary stuff right there!

Still got the tube/mass/scar
Hi
I am now nearly five months post op and I have still got the hard painful mass..Which I now know will have to be surgically removed! Can I say this? But thank you Zuzzane Cerna, for NEGLECTING me!
I cannot find a good surgeon who wants to remove the lump and from a any surgeons professional point of view,it's not 'that' bad. I was told that I had had some serious bleeding which was not taken care of. I just feel so depressed and would like to know how much it would cost to be removed? I am from the UK.

I have had a response. from some docs.. I am left with this bulge which is internal scar tissue. I am getting it removed by Dr O at the end of May but he is charging me £1900 for the privilege,plus £400 for bed and £150 for the scan. Turned out to be a pretty expensive mini tuck! I have found a lawyer who may take my case on for negligence re the surgeon in Prague. She is an absolute [RS bleep]! How are you anyway? Hope the post consult went ok?

Yeah pricey..but at least you are getting it resolved..worth it for your sake. £750 of that will be the anaesthetic? Yeah hospital..£400 per night in shared room..sink & loo, tv. The hospital charge £150 per scan session..I don't think he makes too much, considering the hospital theatre rental & surgical team...even though it sounds pricey. Btw: Parking free round corner...tricky to find hospital in Bornem if market is on in the square as road blocked off. We asked in the local butcher shop and a kind local let us follow him! They are extending the NHS hospital, so it will have a construction site next to it..get picked up outside. It was horrible getting wheel chaired along the rickety footpath the day after op.
Get the bed with electrical recline button...manual one is impossible to alter after op.
Yeah post op was weird. A bit contradictory. Almost like he got me mixed up with some other patient. Seems everything is ok..he never looks overly impressed, just his demeanour I guess.
Photos were interesting..he does like to blatantly show you them..be warned!! But, at least you know what surgery was done! Saw my innards!
Yeah...good luck with the legal case. My mum is still trying to sue the NHS for mistreatment of my father. They didn't diagnose his appendicitis efficiently and left him in agony..then did not perform surgery they said. She doesn't want money..just procedures changed and an apology. Brother went a year later..appendicitis...told to go home!!! He insisted on being treated..he was correct..appendectomy finally performed a day later..nothing had improved. But, proving it is very difficult. They "doctored" notes and "lost" some notes..then jumbled the 400 pages up. So far, 3 years of trying to get justice/raise awareness.
Your case might be easier. If she is guilty of neglect in aftercare (depends on your particular contract) you could sue for the repair you are having as well as damages.
This must have been a tough few months for you. Such a disappointment. At least you are able to get it rectified. For a horrible moment, I thought you had been unsuccessful in finding any doc to do the repair.
Keep in touch xx

Crickey...bleeding can cause serious complications..tis' why doc treated me on Boxing day for that clot..to be on the safe side. He has only had 2 cases in many years..typically, I was one.
At least you are having it done by a decent surgeon now x

I am so sorry and hope you have finally found a PS happy to do the revision. I found the most amazing PS surgeon in Budapest who did my revision surgery because I too was neglected by Dr Cerna. I highly recommend Dr Greg Pataki. He has performed two revision surgeries to rectify the damage she caused and it could have been avoided if she had just listened to me. I lived in Prague and went back approximately three times but just gave up. It seems she is lovely when things are right but her personality changes if you question her about complications.

Her experienced should have told her I did indeed have major problems with level four encapsulation of my right breast with a large amount of disease tissue surrounding implant and rippling of the left breast implant causing huge lumps. One breast rock hard and one soft and lumpy.
Also is that true she is not registered? Please let me know about your solicitor as I too am interested. Or alternatively would welcome a full refund to put towards my extensive reconstructive surgery next week and I would be happy to delete my post.
