Re: Can I sue my plastic surgeon?

It certainly sounds like you have a viable claim against the plastic surgeon. Did the new doctor provide you with a written report confirming the placement? Also, do you have any paperwork from the first surgery that would indicate your request for the implants to be placed under the muscle? I would be happy to speak with you further about your experience, feel free to call my office at your convenience.

Yours truly,

You are probably not timely.

Civil Code Section 340.5. In an action for injury or death against a health care provider based upon such person's alleged professional negligence, the time for the commencement of action shall be three years after the date of injury or one year after the plaintiff discovers, or through the use of reasonable diligence should have discovered, the injury, whichever occurs first. In no event shall the time for commencement of legal action exceed three years unless tolled for any of the following: (1) upon proof of fraud, (2) intentional concealment, or ...

You're at least two years past the deadline, if not four years past, unless you can prove fraud or concealment regarding his NEGLIGENCE, not just not following your directions. I doubt you can prove fraud, and you've already admitted publicly that you knew you weren't happy with the poor work [his negligence] a long time ago.

Put it this way, I wouldn't take your money to file that suit, and I wouldn't risk my client being hit with sanctions for filing in bad faith, knowing it was time barred.
