Well I finally posted the material I have been carrying around in my Iphone. 2 weeks have passed since I actually wrote the last post , just added, and all is well. We have had a very busy two weeks seeing and scheduling patients for breast augmentations, abdominoplasties and facial procedures.
I am also amazed at how many people I see that need to be revised after bad experiences elsewhere. Sometimes I think I only treat others complications. I have become a master at redoing someelse's initial failed rhinoplasty or breast lift. It also seems that I see an awful lot of patients with capsular contracture who have lost faith in their previous surgeon or surgeons.
I feel badly for these patients because they have already spent alot of money and havn't gotten what they want. At the same time it is unrealistic to think that it is somehow easier to get it right the second or third time around so because the patient has spent alot of money already with someone else they should not have to pay me atleast what they initially spent for the first procedure. I feel for them but I have too have to survive in these hard economic times.
The truth is though that it is not about the money but the satisfaction in helping someone. Now I am trying to figure out how I can get my surgical team to Haiti and yet not disappoint the people I have already scheduled for surgery here!
