Apr 18, 2025I had a tummy tuck and liposuction with Dr. fabio Castro in November, and my experience has been nothing short of a nightmare. From the moment I came out of surgery, I knew something was wrong. The doctor admitted he had difficulty "putting me back together," and soon after, my worst fears came true.
* My stomach kept opening, exposing my insides.
* I suffered multiple infections, requiring one antibiotic after another.
* The doctor made me pay for massages to stretch the skin, but they didn't work.
* I developed holes in my stomach, and my belly button was moved unnaturally high, near my ribs.
* I was forced to wear a machine that pumped liquid out of my body, causing extreme discomfort.
* I developed constant pain in my groin and stomach that still hasn't gone away.
* After multiple Dr visits and emergency room visits, I was told my lymph nodes and organs were swollen due to complications.
* The doctor suggested I take antidepressants.
Then he suggested I go to a pain management Dr which I refuse , I will not be addicted or live my life on pain meds instead of addressing the real medical issues that is killing me slowly .
* I have painful bumps inside my stomach, and I now need a skin graft and further medical treatment to determine if the internal damage can even be fixed.
* I am vomiting, have lost my appetite, and my condition is only worsening.
Not a minute goes by where I'm not in pain.
Both sides of my groin area are swollen and so painful . My health is deteriorating.
To make matters worse, when I asked the office for help covering my medical expenses, they refused to pay any of my medical bills or offer a refund--even though these complications were caused by the surgery. Their only offer was a "free revision surgery," but there's no way to open me up again. U can't remove the scars and bumps because there's no skin .
My belly button is by my ribs , I have no waist
I will never ever be able to wear a bathing suit again.
With all this the doctor's wife, who manages the office, has been shockingly rude and dismissive. When I called in excruciating pain, she yelled at me over the phone instead of offering any help. She even lied about the doctor's availability to avoid dealing with me. When I requested my pre-surgery photos, she gave me the worst attitude, making it clear she didn't care about my suffering. She acts friendly when the doctor is around but is completely cold and uncaring when he isn't. She has made it so uncomfortable for me that I no longer feel welcome in the office.
I have been out of work for months due to this surgery, suffering every single day. My body is now deformed, and no other surgeon wants to take my case because of how severe the damage is.
I can't sit or walk for long period of time.
I really feel like this is going to kill me.
The Drs stepdaughter told me that her mom won't do anything on her face because she did once and was not happy with the results. She said maybe he's doing it on purpose so no one will want her but that she does not trust him to do procedures
On her. Wish I had known that before my procedures .
As of Feb 21 i was in the emergency and after blood work
Received results of Acute stomach infection.
I also did a little lip on my thigh and was left with a huge hole .
