dr. michael giuffrifa What a quack syracuse New York

I met  Dr. Giuffrida September of  2011, he is a employee of Dr. Halliday.   I had received breast augmentation through Dr. Hallidays previous plastic surgeon Dr. Mackenzie. March 2011.

From the first week of getting breast augmentation I had several issues.

1. Horrible pain and numbness running down my arm into my fingers on the right side.

2. The implants chosen by the Dr. Mackenzie were too small.  They were not the size I wanted.

3. Because the implants were High Profile and over filled,  there were too narrow.  Thus I could easily put two hands between my cleavage.

4. The right implant pocket was not correctly made and the implant did not drop correctly in place.

5. The left implant was over diassected thus I could feel the implant bag and it hung lower than my left if it went into the pocket correctly.

When Dr. Mackenzie quit 3 weeks after my post op I was stuck waiting to see Dr. Giuffrida who started practicing in September 2011.  Mind you I had to wait  5 months in pain.I was told by Dr. Halliday I had capsular contraction on the right side which is why I was in pain.   And Dr. Giuffrifa backed this statment up after seeing my pictures in June 2011.I went for a second and third opinion, each Doctor stated I did not have capsular contraction,  that my surgery was botched by a hack.

I seen Dr. Giuffrida in September of 2011.  He stated surgery for capsular contraction was very bloody and messy and even wrinkled his nose in disgust.   He also stated there was no way to fix the gap between my breast.  That is the way my breast lay, even with implants.   His medical report also states this.  I scheduled my revision for Jan 2012.   Mary from the office canceled this appointment the day prior stating Dr. Giuffrida does not want to do the surgery.

I had surgery  May 5 2013 by another well qualified surgeon in Syracuse.    His medical records state I have no signs of capsular contraction on the right or left side.   He changed my implant size to moderate plus and I have amazing cleavage.  He also used 1 more hour of surgery no charge to fix the pocket as they were  quote "a mess".   

Dr. Giuffrida clearly has no experience in breast augmentation.   He misdiagnosed me with capsular contraction.  He stated he could not fix my large gap between my breast which I indeed had fixed.  He is just another monkey for Dr. Halliday to make a few extra bucks. Run from this quack.  Dr. Halliday cares about nothing but the dollar.   He has proven that by injecting animal botox in patients faces.  He is still on a restricted medical licence because of it.
