I've been reading everyone's reviews. I had my surgery the 3rd of February. The healing was bad. Very bad. I'm now going to see Wound Care Clinic. Unfortunately, Dr. Nicholas Haddock diminished my concern. Seven weeks later? I need someone to take me seriously. I have now been referred to Wound Care from another doctor. I got fat necrosis of my right breast. I had a career in the Navy and have a law degree. If this man thinks he may continue to diminish my dead breast, sorry!!

Hi , I've never commented on a post before . But I'm nearly 5 weeks post op .. l lost alot of skin covering most of my breasts , and it looked like it would never heal . I did alot of research and decided to take collagen powder supplement , and moist wound healing with mgo 400 manuka honey . 3 days in I've more healing than an entire month. I like you was on the verge of a specialist wound healing clinic . Maybe you could ask them about it . It might help. Good luck with your healing.

You must be devastated. I'm very happy you didn't put off the wound care specialist. Some people have let things go too far. Best of luck to you.

Thanks ya'll. I see Wound Care Clinic in a couple of hours. I just want to make sure my plastic surgeon is doing the best he can.

OMG what happened? Why is there a hole under there? Did the surgeon that did your Breast not agree to fix whatever that is?? Oh my... I'm about scared to have anything done now...

He will continue to follow me, but for now, I have to get this infection & necrosis cleared up. My PS didn't follow ordinary sanitary rules. The Wound Care clinic did a culture and learned I have an e. Coli infection. On antibiotics and special wound dressing for now. Just research who you select very good. I wish I had.

Did your ps have you to pack the open wounds...they need to Beal from the inside out. I had necrosis with my tummy tuck it looked just like that. I had a great ps who was always available by phone. He talked me through all of it. It took 6 months to heal but looks great now. I'm 52 and planning on a reduction in June 2017 I am nervous about it. If you don't mind can I ask what size you were before the reduction and size now. Also with your reduction did you ps do a lift too?

Wound Care is taking care of me for now

I went back to UTSW on Monday, March 27th to see the Wound care Clinic. So glad I did. They had to do more debridement. Ugh! But they also took pictures & measurements of my wound. Also, a culture. Still can't believe my PS didn't culture it. I should get results tomorrow. I have to change the dressing 3 times a week. The nurse said the gauze wet/dry pack my PS had me doing was doing nothing. The problem is the dressings are more than I can handle myself. I did it today, but I'm gonna have to call them tomorrow about going in to have them do it for me Monday, Wednesday, Friday. It took me more than 30 minutes and a lot of the material falling on the floor. It's been almost 8 weeks since surgery. Trust me, as soon as you start to smell something bad, get a second opinion. You don't want what I'm going through.

Glad you're getting the help you need. It's the worst when the person who messed you up does not try to correct the error themselves

I'm so sorry your doctor did that you should report him to the board of medicine. They investigate every complaint

Dr. Haddock referred me to a new doctor

LOL. I didn't want him to ever touch me again. I told him I couldn't trust him after I got the E. coli he swears I gave to myself! Or anyone but him! I'm so excited to feel my right breast start to fill in. I'm still seeing a home health nurse 3 days a week thanks to this doctor. I'll take a picture soon. I'm so totally ruined after this surgery that I'm having problems dealing.
