    2 years post surgery and the tummy tuck looks even worse! This man is just money hungryread more

    I chose Dr. Madry for a tummy tuck in November 2024 to address the excess abdominal skin left after…read morehaving two very large babies. At our initial consultation on June 12, he was polite but seemed rushed and didn't spend much time discussing details. Still, he offered to perform the procedure at a reasonable price, so I decided to move forward. The surgery itself went smoothly, but recovery was incredibly painful. I couldn't stand upright for weeks. By January, I noticed swelling in my upper abdomen, which I initially assumed was just part of the healing process. Unfortunately, the bulge continued to grow rapidly, and I knew something wasn't right. I called Dr. Madry's office and was told he was leaving the country and wouldn't be available for another two weeks. At that point, the swelling was about the size of a lemon and getting bigger every day. When I expressed my concern, I was shocked by how I was treated. The office staff was dismissive, defensive, and even blamed me for not coming in sooner. Dr. Madry later called me from overseas and also made me feel shamed and at fault. They referred me to another surgeon at Good Shepherd who was covering for him, but I was told he wouldn't be able to see me for another week. Meanwhile, the bulge had grown to the size of a grapefruit. After some research, I realized I was likely dealing with a seroma--a fluid-filled pocket left behind after surgery. As a professional photographer, this growing mass made it extremely difficult to work. In desperation, I contacted my previous surgeon in Chicago, Dr. Michael Lee, who drained a significant amount of fluid from the area. I continued to see him for repeat aspirations--about ten times--until it became clear that this was not sustainable financially or logistically. Emotionally drained and hesitant to return to Dr. Madry after my experience, I resorted to draining it myself every few days. It's a painful and risky process, involving sterilizing the area and inserting a four-inch needle into my abdomen. Dr. Lee has now advised that I'll need another surgery to permanently resolve the seroma. It will cost $5,000 and require two weeks off work. I've had over ten surgeries in my life and never had any issues--until now. This has been my worst medical experience. Not only is the seroma still present, but the incision from the tummy tuck is large and poorly done. I also continue to have significant swelling that gives the appearance of a pot belly--on top of the seroma in my upper abdomen. Looking back, I deeply regret not investing in a more experienced and compassionate surgeon. I wish I had paid more for someone who would've treated me with care and delivered better results. This has been emotionally, physically, and financially devastating.

    While the doctor's services are top notch, the check In procedure is ridiculous. We waited for over…read more30 minutes and had to stay in our car, in the parking lot. Attempts to call the office were not answered - the only response was through text, when they felt like responding. I would have left, normally. But since payment was given upfront... There's obviously no waiting or patient lobby. we drove 45 minutes to wait outside for 40 minutes. Unacceptable.

I felt pressured, misled, and even shoved toward a mirror, told to stand a certain way so I couldn't see poor surgical results. When I spoke up, I was told to ignore his behavior. I later found my records had been altered and learned that staff routinely lie for him. I even have text messages that support my claims. In addition, my Botox treatments here never lasted -- I was told it was because of my age, but since switching to a new injector, they now last twice as long. I also noticed that negative reviews about this practice disappear, while patients are solicited to post positive ones in exchange for free treatments. This left me feeling unsafe, disrespected, and deceived. I will be filing a complaint with the state board.

    I have known Dr. Janis since at least 1994, when I created her business sign. Even though I've…read moremoved since then, it is worth a trip to Illinois to use the services of Janis Dental when practical. Seldom have I met a person who is as thoughtful, pleasant and accommodating to clients, and services that I received from her office have always been outstanding. I'm old enough to remember the dark days of dentistry, when the idea of pain-free dental work was the exception rather than the rule. Dr. Janis and her staff, however, have taken pain and anxiety reduction to a new level. Instead of simply treating the teeth, they have created a warm and inviting environment, sharing stories or light humor with me and offering options such as customized music selections or a choice of flavors for topical anesthetics. Of even greater significance is the fact that Dr. Janis knows how to listen to the client and demonstrates both her impeccable expertise as well as personal consideration while discussing radiograph results and offering guidance in determining a course of action. In the case of a complex procedure, however, she will provide appropriate referrals rather than attempting a solution best left to specialists. I'm very grateful to have had the good fortune to know this wonderful, compassionate person and for the opportunity of receiving dental services from the best of the best.
