Can i sue my rhinoplasty doctor for messing up by not making it the way i wanted and collapsing my nostril?
I went in for a rhinoplasty surgery about a year ago. I had no trouble breathing i just wanted my nose tweeked a bit. The doctor was board certified and i had checked on his credentials. I had trouble breathing shortly after the surgery. The surgeon said to wait and it will become better. I had visited him again and he gave me a nasal spray that did not work. I went in to a well known surgeon for a second look. He looked at my nose and told me that my nostrils were partialy collapsed making it harder to breath due to excess removing of cartilge. As for appearance he made one nostril higher than the other and made my tip a totally different way than he had explained to me before the surgery. I am not happy with my surgery. I need a doctor that specializes in rhinoplasty revision. Is there anything i can do legally to get him to pay for the revision. WHAT ARE MY RIGHTS?

- Trouble breathing sounds like a reason to sue to me.
- u should, unless u signed saying you wouldn't ... then your screwed and u know you did... so just look for someone to help you...call larry h. parker Now!
- holy crap i would hope
- Yes, if you both came to an agreement on exactly what you wanted, and it's documented, you can. Sue him for permanent disfigurement. If your a model, actress, or cooperate image type the compensation is higher depending on the amount of potential saleability lost. Get an attorney who won't milk you for too much of a percentage. Your doctor should have to pay for mental anguish, pain, and any correction cost and or lost wages and damages.
- If you have a written report from another doctor that your doctor f***ed up...sue the bastard!!!! you have nothing to loose and all to win!!! good luck !
