These pictures come courtesy of the wonderful Brie Jontry of 4thwavenow.

Her Twitter feed (am I allowed to link?) is the source and discussion. Looks like this "physician" is in Canada?

I have a different take on this as plenty of women go in for a different type of breast surgery and its very much sold as a positive life enhancing thing and with humour. its known as a 'boob job' which is a bit of a silly name that trivialises the risks in my opinion. It also carries infection risks and can lead needing serveral surgeries over a life time to replace the implants and there are problems with leaking and so on. I appreciate removing healthy tissue is different than adding something but I think this is just part of a bigger issue with the cosmetic surgery industry as a whole.

(I am obviously not referring to reconstructive surgery after cancer treatments)

Psychopath displaying his trophies (not a joke).

Men need to keep their knives off women's healthy bodies.

SarahTancredi · 08/07/2019 09:25

No you are right there grass

I only know what I've seen on tv surgery docs but people always seemed surprised it hurt so much or that there are complications, or they arent as big as they wanted.

No one should be cutting anyone open for elective surgeries when the patient is not 100 percent prepared for the risks and the reality of the recovery.

Every time the expectations are above and beyond what can actually be delivered.

Yeahnahyeah · 08/07/2019 11:16

That second link from the fired US Dr had this...

Another graphic post the doctor is said to have shared shows a dildo pulled from a patient’s rectum with the caption: "could have been avoided if the transman had a real phalloplasty."

I'm done.

Exactly!

NeurotrashWarrior · 08/07/2019 11:22

This made me sick.

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 08/07/2019 11:28

This is disgusting. A doctor who did this in the UK could expect to be struck off the medical register.

JackyHolyoake · 08/07/2019 11:56

none of this is easy and none of us do it lightly

In the case of adult males, it is the AGP that is the root of any feelings of so-called "dysphoria", so maybe it is the AGP that needs to be controlled to dissipate the obsessiveness that develops?

In the case of young women, there is no objective evidence yet for what motivates them but there are indicators that social contagion is playing a part as well as homophobia.

Again, this is a very helpful read [for all those who have not yet read it]:

Reminds me of one of those Norman bates type serial killers who puts women's pieces in freezers and fetishizes over the dead flesh because he's a necrophiliac

PolkadotLollipop · 08/07/2019 11:59

Hideous. I’d also seriously question the ethics of a dr posing on social media with human tissue. Revolting individual.

BatShite · 08/07/2019 18:13

Gross. And I think potential patients using gallows humour to try and chill themselves somewhat before surgeries, is somewhat different to a surgeon doing this. This is so unprofessional. I would not feel safe in this mans hands after seeing this.

NotAtMyAge · 08/07/2019 18:51

As someone who had no choice but to have a breast removed after cancer recurrence, I find this image obscene. I had a wonderfully skilful female surgeon and my scar is almost invisible, but I still have side-effects many years later. The thought that young women are voluntarily subjecting themselves to this mutilation fills me with pity and sadness.

arranbubonicplague · 08/07/2019 19:04

I’d also seriously question the ethics of a dr posing on social media with human tissue.

Not a comment on the doctor in question but I recall a fairly notorious case of a surgeon who used to take photographs of himself and his patients, post liposuction procedure, holding the plastic bag of extracted fat etc. to show the volume removed.

His boundaries were unusual to the point where he allowed unqualified staff to conduct parts of procedures and eventually ended up fleeing to a country with a non-extradition treaty. Always a good look.

But it is notable how people who flout boundaries do tend to transgress more and more boundaries when they realise that they aren't challenged. I decided not to include that surgeon's name here but it is surprising what a search engine returns for:

liposuction disgraced surgeon fled country

Including an allegation that one surgeon claimed to use extracted fat as lipodiesel for his car...

DuMondeB · 08/07/2019 19:06

to use extracted fat as lipodiesel for his car

Boak.

Transgender ideology is money for pharmaceutical companies.....medicalisation of otherwise healthy bodies

Surgeons rank 5th of psychopaths in the workplace:

Santa coming down the chimney with a scalpel in his hand is the stuff of nightmares.

Gets worse he's advertising on Instagram. Warning link from the tweet is disturbing

I wouldn't want my chiropodist posing with my foot shavings and toe nails on social media. Even if it's 'waste' it's not appropriate.

ShadowStar · 09/07/2019 00:22

I understand the gallows humour argument and that it can help patients get through scary medical procedures and operations.

But there is a world of difference between a patient making gallows humour jokes etc themselves, and a doctor doing it.

It’s extremely unprofessional and inappropriate for a doctor or other medical professional to be posting jokey photos like that.

Durgasarrow · 09/07/2019 09:29

horrifying.

DpWm · 09/07/2019 11:52

Also interesting how we get told all the time that it's possible for someone who is not female to 'feel like a woman' and yet when we say how we feel about this we are told we can't possibly understand

YY and Y

Justhadathought · 09/07/2019 16:45

it's not surprising that you feel this way. This is not for you and the people it is for who want top surgery feel a lot differently about there breat tissue than you do

Actually, many/most women have very complex feelings towards their 'breast tissue' - as this is part of the territory that goes with being female in our culture.
