⭐ Honest Review of My Experience with Dr. Azar
I’ve waited a few years to write this review so I could do so from a calm and fair place, without emotion or frustration guiding my words. My goal is simply to share my personal experience in hopes that it helps others make informed decisions.
During my initial consultation with Dr. Azar, I was genuinely impressed. He took the time to explain details that other surgeons hadn’t mentioned — especially about my breast asymmetry. His professionalism, communication skills, and extensive knowledge (including his background in reconstructive surgery) gave me a lot of confidence in choosing him.
However, on the day of my surgery, things changed unexpectedly. Right before entering the operating room, I was told that my procedure would be done above the muscle, even though we had previously agreed on under the muscle placement. Feeling unprepared and pressured to trust the process, I agreed.
After surgery, I noticed both implants were the same size, although we had clearly discussed using two different sizes to correct asymmetry. Unfortunately, complications followed. I developed a severe infection in my right breast. Despite contacting the office multiple times with concerns about unusual swelling, I had difficulty being seen and felt dismissed by staff. Eventually, the infection worsened and my implant ruptured during the night, leading to an emergency removal.
That experience was traumatic. Although the removal cost was covered, I was still billed for the surgery room and anesthesia. I underwent multiple corrective surgeries afterward to address sizing and symmetry, which added to the physical and emotional toll.
While I appreciate Dr. Azar’s efforts to fix my results and acknowledge that he is highly skilled and knowledgeable, I ultimately felt unsupported and overlooked in my post-operative care. There was no follow-up, no wellness check, and no acknowledgment of the difficulties I went through which was disheartening after such a major experience.
In conclusion, I believe Dr. Azar is a talented surgeon and a great communicator, but my personal experience was complicated and emotionally difficult. I hope that by sharing my story, future patients will feel empowered to ask every question, confirm every decision in writing, and advocate for themselves before and after surgery.
