Absolute nightmare experience! *AVOID - POST 8 MONTHS* Gynecomastia Removal Surgery: January 2024 On first arrival at the clinic - I was left feeling very uncomfortable when being examined by one of the doctors.. It was all very weird. When in consultation with Dr. Lhotsky, I explained that I wanted the full gland removed from each side of my chest (which I also expressed before committing and making the trip..). When raising concerns, had I known the attitude I was going to be met with, I would have gone elsewhere. I asked about the success rate, his response: "Well if it doesn't work that's not my fault".. Brilliant. Very reassuring. It wasn’t a very welcoming consultation in the slightest. As well as this, I also opted to have full liposuction carried out around that area. This has been completely bodged and has left me with severe disfigurements. Further to this, incisions were made inside of the areola.. Not along the bottom edge as described to me and therefore expected, these now look deformed. Following the procedure, I was ignored by the first nurse when I complained about the excruciating pain I was in directly upon waking.. Outright refusing to give me any appropriate pain medication and walking away when I tried to speak to her.. I’m around 6’3” and 94kg in weight, 1 x 200mg paracetamol tablet does not have much effect on me unfortunately. Eventually I was given some form of oral morphine solution. This should have been done at the beginning. Yet it wasn’t, either to save money, from lack of experience or negligence. Either way, I was left in severe pain. I spent the night at the clinic, but again, not without problems.. The compression vest that was supplied was completely the wrong size. It was short in length barely covering my stomach and therefore ridiculously tight and uncomfortable - making it hard to eat and keep anything down. I mentioned this to a nurse but again, I was ignored. When it came to being discharged, I had the drains removed.. This in hindsight seemed quite premature as the bleeding had not yet stopped.. I was shoddily “patched” up by one of the nurses, but it wasn’t adequate at all. I continuously bled and had to constantly change the dressings myself, several times in a day, giving the potential for an infection to occur in my still open wounds. I called Praga Medica straight away, and after a few failed attempts, finally received a call back about an hour later, then explaining the issue with the compression garment being too small for me. The person who's care I was under, had taken the day off without informing me of who to contact instead. I was then told to retrieve a replacement myself whilst bleeding heavily and in pain, in the freezing cold snow, not feeling very well, when I should have been resting and recovering. This should have been brought to me - or perhaps the correct size and care given in the first place? (Also worth mentioning, upon arrival back at the clinic, I could see their shocked reactions to the results when changing into the new garment, having yet more dressings replaced that early on following the procedure). The next day, on my flight home I was still bleeding excessively. Having to be moved to the front of the plane away from other passengers due to my excessive blood loss. Upon landing, my T-shirt was soaked through with blood, leading to me having to attend A&E in the UK via blue lights where I eventually collapsed. Since then, I had four seromas occur, each having to be drained and the glands have completely, grown back. I have also now been informed of what the breast department at my local NHS hospital described as ‘excessive scar tissue due to poor practise’. Following this, I contacted Praga Medica for some sort of explanation and a refund! No apology or refund has ever been received, one agent even had the cheek to laugh when explaining the experience I had to endure. I have written several times to the owner, Mr. Dvorak who has failed to respond or call me back as requested. Con Artists! Avoid!
