Revision with Krau
Doctor unresponsive - 3 mths post revision
10 weeks post third revision
I can tell you that I regret having the revision surgery as I went from ok to way worse. I gave my PS $10,000 and spent another $3000 on flights and accommodation. I can cope with the money spent, but the physical and emotional trauma is much worse. I have spent 6 months of my life in recovery thus far, which is challenging for someone who is active and took yoga 5 times per week. My left pectoral muscle aches constantly and any flexion creates this unsightly deformity. I have followed doctors post surgery instructions perfectly. I have not worked out at all and been mindful of not using my chest muscles. I am so disheartened. I researched revision surgery for years and believed I found the best surgeon. I have not heard from my PS since the revision surgeries on June 9th and 13th. No follow up whatsoever. I decided to wait to email him to see if things settled over time. I will send him an email with photos and ask what can be done to fix it. I also posted a question to doctors on this site asking the same.
Provider Review
I has another revision with Dr Krau March 2018. Back to subglandular, new pockets, loose galaflex removed, and fat transfer. See my other review. Dr Krau did a complete turnaround and did my fourth revision for no charge. I have left original comments as such and increase star to 4 for attempting to correct all my issues! Dr Krau performed revision surgery (June 9th and 13th) at only the cost of replacement implants - I I ALlam still experiencing several of the same issues I had as a result of my first surgery with him (Oct 5, 2015). I do NOT believe the problems were adequately addressed. I received no follow up from him or his office to check my progress since the revision. I have sent several emails and photos of the issues I am experiencing requesting information. I received a one sentence email back that did not answer any of my questions, and believe he is either too busy or is choosing not to respond. I am so disappointed since I really thought I was going to the best PS who cares about his patient's outcomes. I chose Dr Krau because of his track record. Unfortunately, for me it looks like I will have to spend significantly more money and search for another PS to address the issues created during my surgeries with him. Original pre-surgery: I liked Dr Krau instantly. He did not appear arrogant like other DRs I had seen. He answered all of my questions and provided three options to consider. His coordinator Cristina has been very helpful addressing my questions to aid the decision making process. I am excited to finally take care of these issues! Post-Surgery: I feel Dr Krau made some decisions during surgery that created a look that I am not comfortable with. He changed the pockets to make them wider on the medial side and not within my natural fold. I don't like how they look. While my old set were far from perfect, I wish I had spent more time with the PS prior to surgery to better understand what he planned to do and have been able to say yes or no. You have to trust your surgeon but now I like them less then before and I am $11k out of pocket! I am communicating with the DR and he said wait 6 months and will address at that time. It may not look like much of an issue to others by looking at my photos but I have to see and feel it everyday and at this point I regret having the surgery.
