Skilled surgeons needed to help with serious corrective post op results

To all Qualified Board Certified Cosmetic Surgeons out there!!!
Please review my case and please, please help me revise the very unsatifactory results I received. I finally thought after everything I've been through....3 cervical spinal operations, having been a documented Fl. State victim of a crime, living with pain and humiliation and rebuilding my life after losing my long term business due to the health issues, I no longer can afford to " fix " what this unprofessional surgeon without strong skill sets, left me with.
I am three years post op and need serious help to correct the damges my former PS has caused me.
If you or someone you know, would like to hear my story completely, I would forever be sincerely grateful. Thank you from my heart.

FINALLY I GOT ANSWERS my recent visit to Sarasota leading surgeon

Last week I finally was seen by a well respected surgeon that I was referred to by my primary and my uro. gyno. also. So I went.
He examined me and my cat scans. He definitely stated I had been very, very overly tightened and he did not like the large dimpling in the center of my scar caused by Dr. Marguerite Barnett, in Sarasota from Mandela Medspa, when she performed my tummy tuck which her nurses said, took 8 .5 of the total 9.5 hours, only one of those hours, of which was when she performed my breast reduction, then moved onto my tummy job which caused my abdomen abnormality, unsightly sunken pit and shortly after had to fix the fact that her drainage tube, fell out on its own, which resulted in me immediately getting staph infection which she attempted to correct whatever she clearly messed up during surgery, in her office, by the way, after hours without aide of any staff member. Keep in mind, my family asked to speak to her immediately when the nurses stated I had been rolled into recovery, but their responses were, " that the doctor had left the building and was not returning!!!
I've was toldby this new surgeon he coukd " fix it" rather have it repaired, but this means more pain, risks and quite frankly I'm tired of the " good old boy" doctor mentality, here in Sarasota, when its obvious they are shocked by her so called results and after care. Who will pay for this correction? To date I'm $12,000-$13,000 in to it already. I hated her complete lack of professionalism after i went to the Venice outpatient surgery center. She had a horrible bedside manner post op and office treatment and discussions with me that followed. To date her staff nor she, have tried to reach out to me in any way shape or form, despite my request. I urge any potential patient to seek several options and qualified consultations. Spend the extra few grand $$$$ and review many patient recent surgery commentaries. Call each one. Do your due diligence!!!!! A Harvard diploma is only as good as the paper is written on if the graduate, surgeon didn't really graduate with strong skill sets, as in this case is clearly evident.

My interactions were abrupt, with very little bed side manner. When I and others, asked questions, she appeared agitated by the questions, as though they weren't important enough to answer and did not want to go into any lengthy explanations. When a problem arose causing us to return after hours, specifically, my staph infection caused from her procedures, she made excuses for the problems and said there's no reason to cry or carry on the way I was or be upset, despite her decision on the spot to cut back into me on her office table, then she put her hands up gesturing, to play an invisible violin in front of me and my daughter and now husband, as if to say, she didnt feel bad for me or my pain at all. She's rude and abrasive at times and I would never send anyone back there for anything. Her staff follow her lead in unfriendliness. Some are afraid of the doctor their boss, and told us so. I have had problems ever since she operated on me. The doctor has not returned our calls to date asking for a time to show her my very unsightly massive scar , dimpling and new pains in my abdominal surgical areas. This is not a surprise after my entire experience. Never have I been treated so unprofessionally by a medical doctor or surgeon, ever. If I could turn back the clock, I would have gone with Dr Dreshen in Clearwater, paid more but have no problems and no deformity, like I do now sadly.Biggest mistake I ever made was thinking her Harvard credentials would someone make her premiere. She's definitely best retiring. This is true of her breast augmentations too, as she ruined the most natural complimented previous breasts, which I had her downsize, i now hide from the world. Overall, I would not recommend her for cosmetic procedures. Save your money and go elsewhere.
