Title: would like reviews for Dr Nguyen
Post by: Alissa16 on January 11, 2015, 02:52:05 PM
There are plenty of reviews for most all state side SRS surgeons but Iam looking in the pacific northwest and can only find Dr Nguryen who works in the Portland area..Can anyone give a review of him? Also any other SRS surgeons for mtf in the NW?

I *think* you can see this thread... anyway, this woman is a member here who had a horror story. She eventually had to pay a lot of money to have his work corrected by a different surgeon.

I think you need something like 15 posts to see those boards, in that case. Suffice it to say that it wasn't a pretty story, and he did not take good care of her.

In general, be VERY suspicious of someone who does GRS as an *outpatient* surgery. I can't even imagine it; I was barely ready to go home after a week of 24/7 nursing care!

I believe that post is in a Subcriber area. Dr Nguyen gets mentioned here pretty frequently. There are more, these were on the first page of the search results.

Oh, heck, Devlyn, you're right; I can't see the thread myself anymore! I copied it out of an email I'd sent to another Susan's member years ago, and didn't check to see if I could actually open it. My apologies to everyone.

Here's a subscriber-free set of her posts; the full story isn't there but there's enough to get the gist :
