Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Dear Kim, I called your plastic surgeons office this morning and tried to talk to them. I talked for a period of time and was able to ask the patient coordinator a few questions, but she ultimately was not able to confirm that Dr. Weinstein takes out the entire capsule. When Dr. Weinstein got on the phone with me, he refused to talk to me unless I told him my full name, even though I told him I was not his patient. So, in the end, I could not confirm that he was knowledgeable about the necessity of doing a full explant to protect your future health. The patient coordinator I talked to did tell me that in her 15 years in his office, she had never seen him use drains on any explant patient. This is one indication that he will not be as careful as he needs to be, and for that reason, I cannot recommend that you use him for explant. With your proximity to Dr. Lu Feng in Cleveland Ohio, at this time, she is the only recommendation that I can give you.
