Dr. Algrid Mameniskis Sketchy plastic surgeon needs to stop performing rhinoplasties Arlington Heights Illinois
I am writing this report against Dr. Alrgrid Mameiniskis. He is new at Arlington Heights Liposuction and Cosmetic Insitute. He performed my rhinoplasty 6 months ago. My initial surgeon was another Dr who retired and I was told Dr. M was taking over all his patients. My consultant said; he's great you'll love him he's a really good surgeon. I had an open rhino. He fractured my bones. Shaved my hump down. Brought my tip up and straightened my nose. Surgery went well no complications. When the day came to take my cast off I waited almost 2 hrs because he was busy and finally another Dr came into my room and said he would have to do it because Dr. M was busy but he too appeared to be in a hurry. Looking at myself in the mirror I could see that my nose didn't look right. I asked why do I have this here. I had a cut right in the middle of my bridge and he said oh that's normal it'll go away my wife's nose looked like that when she got rhino. I said ok and left. Every time I would go in for a check up I had to wait about an hr or more. My concern was that cut which looked like an incision. It was not going away it had a stitch in it and it looked so ugly. When I asked Dr M he said it was irritation of the cast. I could just tell that he was lying. What I think happened is that he pierced through my skin when he was rasping my hump down. But I don't understand why he won't say so he keeps lying. He sold me some gel cream for the scar and said it'll bien in over time you won't see it with makeup. Ok we'll see. 2 month passed then 3 and I called his office because I was not happy with a dent that started forming in the bridge of my nose. Along the right side. I went in too see him and everybody was acting all weird. I could hear the receptionist gossiping and whispering about me. How rude. He had a new attitude with me. A bit arrogant. I said I don't like this dent it keeps getting worse. What does this mean will I need a revision. He said no no revision. These things often fix themselves over time. Just keep waiting you are healing. After a year I can put some fillers. I said ok but is that a permanent solution and he never answers my questions with a draught forward answer he just kind of said it's temproray and after that we can try a more permanent one. I brought up the scar again he said just massage it all the time. Can you gurantee it's going away. Again no real answer just oh we'll see. You're still healing. I also brought up that I couldn't breath through my right nostril and I was concerned that something wasn't right. He said you're healing its normal give it time. I walked out of his office and as I walked past the receptionist there was dead silence and they were just looking at each other like ohhh there she goes. It has now been 6 months post surgery they haven't called me. I'm supposed to have another check up appointment . the dent is still there getting deeper actually. The Dr said there was a gap between my bone and cartilage which was why that dent was there. The scar is still there. It has a tiny bump on It and some discoloration. I still have trouble breathing through My right nostril. My nose looks deviated which it looked like before surgery and now again. I am now begining to see another dent now on the left side of my bridge. Something to add was that the day of my surgery they only had one nurse for all the patients getting surgery that day. Thought that was weird. Here I am now wishing I had never gotten surgery with Dr. M. It is so stressful. I went in thinking I would finally have a nice nose and never have to worry about it again. I am so depressed because it's something you notice right away. Its the center of my nose. Its just so cruel to do this to a person. Surgeons don't get repercussions just because they have more power than us normal citizens. Anyone that reads this please don't go with him for a rhinoplasty. Maybe he does good work in other areas but rhinos are not his forte. #sadgirl #badnosejob #fml
