Will You Be A Difficult Patient?

Difficult patients who become hostile patients are one of the biggest problems plastic surgeons face.
John Singer Sargent, one of the foremost portrait painters of the nineteenth century, summed it up best.
“A great portrait will always have a little something wrong with the mouth.”
John Howard Sanden, a well respected New York portrait painter puts it this way, “presenting the portrait never gets easier.”
A portrait painter can go back and make the necessary changes to please a client, but surgeons don’t work with brushes and paint. If a doctor has a dissatisfied patient, it could be disastrous.
You may not realize it, but your plastic surgeon will be scrutinizing you mentally and emotionally as well as physically when you have that first consultation. He may even turn you down as a patient.
Why? Because your expectations may be unrealistic. You may be asking for the surgery for the wrong motives.
How will you know you and your doctor will have a good working relationship?
How will you know if you will be a good candidate emotionally for your surgery?
