Selecting a good surgeon


I am thinking of having a breast augmentation. How do I know who is a good surgeon?
This is a real tough question. There are some great plastic surgeons but there are also many bad surgeons. I would not ask other doctors as to who is good-they always lie. Ask other patients and go online to search for reviews about the doctors. Mind you, many reviews about doctors are also fake. Speaking to another patient is the best way to select a good surgeon. Do not speak to just one person, speak to several. If a surgeon says he/she has never had a complication.-it just means that they are liars. Anyone who demands money upfront is another scammer and should be avoided. Because medical malpractice data are not available to the public, it is very hard for the layperson to know the surgeon’s background. In the end, use your judgment. If there is any doubt, get a second opinion.
