This was the worst experience of my life. I had a bilateral masectomy with Diep flap. They were ok with me to start but it from the surgery on it was a nightmare I still have PTSD from. After a 10 hour surgery, I had another emergency surgery due to swelling, then a blood transfusion the next day. Dr. Wang did not explain to me why all of this happened & barely checked on me. I waited all day on New Years Day to for Dr. Shi to come at 6:00pm & abruptly say I could be released without any pain meds. When I asked him where I could get pain meds since the hospital pharmacy was closed. I frantically searched for a pharmacy & only found one open. It was 30 minutes away & waited one hour in the car for my husband to get the medicine & then drove one hour home. I was in the worst pain of my life & incoherent. I did not trust them & didn't want to go back to their office but I couldn't get another surgeon to take me since it' wasn't their surgery. When I told Dr. Wang how upset by the way I was treated she said to "get over it". I left the hosptial with 4 drains. The first 3 were taken out in a few weeks, but the last one was 6 weeks! She said they had to be less than 5ccs and Christie from her office called me & said not to bother coming in if they were any more. I begged to come in because I was in pain & concerned that it may be infected. She told me to "expect pain." On another occasion when I asked to please show me some compassion, she said she had nothing to say to be & hung up on me! I informed Dr. Wang of all of this & she did nothing! The last straw was when I finally begged her to take out the last drain with tears running down my face & showed her all the open wounds that were starting from the insistions across my stomach. She said they were minor & to put some gauze on them. Within a week they got horribly worse & I demanded she see them. She again said it was minor & made me feel like I was overreacting. She did not provide any follow up & dismissed me. A few days later I had excessive bleeding from a seroma. I called my breast surgeon because Dr. Wang wasn't at all concerned. Fortunately my breast surgeon sent me to Wound Care at the hospital. Unfortunatley the wound did not heal for many months & they suggested I find a new surgeon. I did & my new surgeon has shocked at my torn up stomach with still open wounds. 4 1/2 months after surgery the last wound finally closed up. I have severe permanent scars. I have never in my life been treated so terribly and I had stage 3 breast cancer. I've been treated better having a tooth pulled. PLEASE don't go to this practice. I do not want anyone else to have to suffer like I did. Having Cancer is bad enough but to be treated subhuman...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreCame in for a breast reduction consultation and honestly it was the worst thing ever. At no point did Wang decide to look at my N CUP BREAST, the grooving in my shoulders, the skin breakouts or anything. She simply told me about the money and thatās it. I think as a physician, even though we know youāre interested in the money, you should at least look at a WHOLE CASE before you push your āpatientā out the door.
Anyways when I first showed up I had to stand outside for 10 minutes because no one answered the door (it was locked). Once in the room, she looked at my boobs through the shirt and told me that insurance wonāt cover it. It was the most uncomfortable appointment Iāve ever had honestly.
Thank Gosh I looked at her book of her previous work, it was horrendous. So maybe I dodged a bullet. And YES wang, my insurance WILL cover it šš Next time donāt be so fast to push someone out of...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreBy far, the most exceptional surgeon I could recommend. Dr Wang and Dr Shih are world class and provide care unlike most. After 3 unsuccessful mastectomy reconstruction procedures, Dr Wang and Dr Shih performed Diep Flap surgery on me to remove implants and reconstruct my breasts. If I had I known that a procedure like this would be available 10 years ago when my initial mastectomy was done, I would have spared myself 3 failed reconstruction implant surgeries. Today, I am almost one year out and I can not tell you how blessed I am to have met this team. I am healthy, no pain and could not be happier. The best care pre-op, post op and even during my healing. My doctor was there by phone to help. I was not passed off to the doctor on call, my doctors were there the entire journey. If you ever read your reviews Dr Wang, thank you from the bottom...
