Not all patients are happy with their results. When things become adversarial, facial plastic surgeons need a sound strategy in order to deal with the potential cascading legal events that may ensue. The attorney author of this article offers step-by-step advice for handling complaints brought by patients unhappy with surgical outcome. Also presented are discussions of avoidance of lawsuits and physician preparation for inquiry from state medical boards.
