A Surgery That Left Me Looking Like I was attacked by a shark
Two years ago, I went to Dr Mitchell to have a lipoma removed from my left leg. I was so excited to remove it but what was supposed to be a simple procedure turned into a nightmare I live with every day. My leg wasn’t just scarred, there are literal chunks missing. It looks like a shark took a bite out of me. I can’t wear tights or shorts or a swimming costume or skirt or even a suite, and I feel so ashamed of how I look that I don’t even want my husband to see my legs. My self-esteem has been shattered, I would post pictures but I'm too ashamed, I look gross. This isn’t just cosmetic. I live with daily pain, especially in winter. I can’t sleep on my left side anymore and when I told Dr Mitchell, I was simply told to see a plastic surgeon and that medical aid wouldn’t cover it because it’s “cosmetic.” But I didn’t cause this damage. I trusted a professional, and now I’m left with a lifetime of regret and no support to fix it. To make matters worse, I discovered that my original Google review which shows up under my Google account somehow disappears when viewed from other peoples devices. It’s terrifying to think that negative reviews can be hidden, making it hard for others to know the truth. A 5-star rating might not reflect the real experiences of patients like me. I would give anything to go back and undo this surgery. My leg didn’t look nearly as bad before, and now I’m stuck with pain, shame, and a body I no longer recognize. Please be careful when choosing your surgeon. One mistake can change your life forever.
