Re: still looking for a doctor

[Guest guest]

Kim,

I haven't heard of any doctors in that area . . . But

that doesn't mean that you can't find one.

I'd suggest getting on the phone and calling plastic

surgeons until you find one willing to discuss

removing your implants en bloc, with drains. Phone

calls are free . . .

If, and when, you find a doctor willing to commit,

make an introductory appointment to size him/her up

for yourself. Don't let them give you any BS about

implants being safe, about needing to replace them,

being disfigured without them, etc., etc. . . . If

they say you will be saggy, tell them you want to

discuss a mastopexy (lift). The surgeon shouldn't

charge for an initial visit. If they do, move onto the

next doctor!

You can take information with you to the visit

regarding the importance of removing implants en bloc.

You can tell him about this group, Dr. Blais,

explantation.com, and give him the names of doctors

who do explants properly. There is plenty of

information in our archives!

I have a strong feeling that, with a little effort,

you will be able to find a doctor close to you. It

wouldn't hurt to let the doctor know this group is

always looking for excellent explant doctors in your

area.

Just don't expect the doctor to agree that implants

can make you sick. Most likely you won't get any

comment. All of our recommended doctors will use

breast implants if the situation calls for it - So you

can't let that can't be a qualifier.

Hugs and prayers,

This is the only one on our list from those three states:

Dr. R. Sanger

Dept. Plastic Surgery and Reconstructive Surgery, Medical College of

Wisconsin

9200 W. Wisconsin Ave.

Milwaukee, WI 53226

(414)454-5440

http://www.mcw.edu/plastics/whoweare/bios/sanger.html

(Make sure he will remove your implants

" en bloc " and perform a total capsulectomy if possible)

Other than that little bit of info, I know nothing about this man,

but it is a start for you.

Hope that helps!

Patty
