Re: Looking for a good surgeon in So. California

Hi Irma. I unfortunately didn't use dr jae but I spoke with 2 doctors recently

who Highly recommended him. They said he was knowledgeable in breast implant

illness so I would definitely make an appointment for a consult with him. Hope

you get those things out soon and start healing!

Looking for a good surgeon in So. California

I have been ill for about 6 months now ( and had symptoms for much longer). I

believe it is the implants making me sick and am looking for a good surgeon in

the southern California area that will do a proper en bloc removal. Does anyone

have any recommendations? Does anyone have experience with Dr. Jae Chun?

Thank you so much, Bev. I went in to see the doctor who put these things in and

he basically told me we are all crazy, that there's no research supporting any

of this. But of course, he was happy to quote me a price to get them out. I

couldn't get out of his office fast enough. I also called Dr. F at UCLA but was

shocked at how expensive the surgery is there. The consult alone is $250. I

have also been in touch with dr. Kolb. She is very responsive and I like the

protocol she uses. However, I am still a bit skeptical. They keep telling me

it should be no problem to get the explant covered. However, all the ps offices

I have spoken to here in So. cal keep telling me it is virtually impossible to

get insurance to cover removal of saline implants (my insurance exclusions state

removal is not covered unless medically necessary). Anyway, I am not sure who

to believe. I spoke with Dr. Jae Chun's office and they told me the same thing

- not likely to get covered. Unfortunately, I can't even get in to see Dr. Chun

for a consult until April 14. This is all so incredibly difficult...

I saw Dr. aiello, he initially put them in. I've also made an appointment with

Dr. jae Chun. I also called dr. Gilbert lee - can't even get a consult until

end of April. I called dr Ron edelson as well. I can get a consult there

quickly, which oddly also makes me a little apprehensive.
