Horrible experience with this doctor

ORIGINAL POST

Horrible Experience

Horrible experience with this doctor . He is not a highly skilled surgeon as he states on his website. He has no before and after pictures which makes sense now. He is quick to recommend sinus surgery and other unnecessary procedures. I’ve been left unable to breath properly through my nose and cosmetically deformed which has caused me serious depression. I wish I had researched better and seen the court cases against him before I had my operation.

I'm very sorry this has happened to you. I consulted Dr. Pincock many years ago seeking a revision, after reading positive reviews on another forum (which I suspect are not genuine). I booked a surgery date, but started getting bad vibes and couldn't get copies of the simulated imaging- thankfully ended up cancelling. Unfortunately since, I've proceeded with another AU surgeon, and the results aren't very good. I hope you find someone to assist your case (and know that everything is fixable).

Thankyou. I read and believed the fake reviews too :( I had bad vibes aswell but stupidly had the operation. Who did you end up going with ? Are you looking into a revision? I don’t even know if mine is fixable

Oh Luka, I am truly sorry for your experience. I feel for you and understand big time how it must feel :( I am so sorry to hear. Although my surgery went well, if you need someone to talk to, vent to or just want to discuss it, please inbox me any time. I've been through other scenarios and issues, which has lead me to feel the same way as you described.

I hope you are feeling ok - I truly am worried, and am happy to help in any way I can, even if it's just a second opinion on anything, or anything at all.

You take care please.

For what it's worth, if you could inbox me (I don't want to get sued in case a negative review is not genuine!)?

I am currently building out a bundle of informative /hopefully useful starting point websites I own including
MDDr, and
Surgeries,
MedicalConditions.com.au
and will/ can (if you like - it's your call) reach out to Dr Pincock and ask for his reply, and see how it all goes? Assuming he has a reply at all.

Just thought I'd offer, thanks

Literally was building it into a 'product review' style easy to use site, so people can be aware of these things.

So sorry to hear again.

Horrific Experience

RealSelfmember01987747

The most traumatic experience I’ve ever gone through . My nose is botched in every way possible According to a Plastic surgeon I received a second opinion from my tip cartilage has been destroyed and my turbinates “chomped away” in his words . The bridge has been shaved down to nothing and it’s bumpy and rough . My turbinates have been cut and damaged and I can no longer breathe through my nose or sleep properly at night .

This cosmetic Dr ( not plastic surgeon I feel so stupid for not going to a proper plastic surgeon ) is in the process of having his medical licence taken away hopefully . Unfortunately for myself and many others it’s 20 years too late.

Make sure to google search law suits and medical malpractice it’s really frightening and I’m beyond heartbroken that this information wasn’t around when I had my surgery . I’ve suffered every single day since he did my surgery . He ruined my face I no longer look like me or live the life I lived before . I regret ever stepping foot in his office my life is a living hell since .
