I had rhinoplasty right before the winter semester ended in grad school. During the consultation, I inquired about all possible side effects. My eyes swelling shut was not mentioned, nor was a decrease in my ability to breathe, and a change in my voice.
My eyes became swollen to the point where I couldn't see my computer screen to finish typing my final papers and I had to call the professor to request an extension and submitting documentation that in fact I had surgery (as if I wanted my professor to know I had surgery.... siiiigh). Another side effect was my voice changed SEVERELY because my septum became deviateed. I went back to him 5 months later and told him I perform.... (I now own a performing arts school) why didn't he mention I stood the chance of messing with my bread and butter??? I could no longer sing soprano post-surgery w/ Dr. Freund. My range dropped to alto and tenor... Siiiigh.
Third complaint.... My bridge implant is completely crooked.... I went to one of those malpractice lawyers and he said I might not win teh case because I'm still attractive.... WHAT? In other words, because I can put myself together, a jury may think "Oh please, what does she have to complain about? She's not ugly... She didn't even need surgery".... Sigh.
Fourth complaint: I brought SEVVVVERAL pics for him to see... And he completely did his own thing. You know how everyone w/ rhinoplasty seems to have that lil triangle-shape on the inner portion of their nose? I sooo didn't want that and told him.... What does he give me? A cookie-cutter nose that ignores every single picture I brought to him.
Fifth complaint: I went back in May at the end of the next semester for him to fix the shape (this time I was awake during the process... OUCH! YIKES!! and Oh My GODDDD!). Again, he ignored the pics I brought and pretty much kept a similar shape. Getting surgery is not about what is easy for teh doctor or what shape he's used to performing; it's about giving the patient what they want, even if they wanted to look like Jermaine Jackson (eek).
It is now 2014 and I am still seeking my 3 surgery... This time to correct the problem initiated by Dr. Freund. I'm getting the bridge put in a straight line and hopefully get the septum "undeviated". I thought to go back to him a 3rd time til he gets it right but ehhh, if he was so inattentive to my specific concerns before, why would he change now?? Horrible. Thoroughly horrible experience w/ Mr. Freund.
