Wanted: The Uniboober
By Wyatt Earp | September 29, 2011
Surgery, no matter how minor or routine, comes with assumed risks. Despite what even they think sometimes, doctors are not perfect. Mistakes happen.
Some mistakes can kill you. Others can maim you. Others can make you the topic of conversation.
A Los Angeles woman is speaking out about a botched plastic surgery that left her with symmastia, or a “uniboob.” Dinora Rodriguez, a 40-year-old stay-at-home mom, woke up in horror after undergoing a routine surgery to swap out her old breast implants.
“My breasts looked really bad,” she told MSNBC. “It looked like I had one big breast instead of two. And the pain was terrible.”
Rodriguez says her surgeon, who was recommended by a friend, also operated on her eyes without her permission. She says they no longer close properly.
It would have been much cooler if the doc added a boob. This way, she could look like the chick from Total Recall. Just sayin’.

Sometimes you get what you pay for. Trying to find the cheapest plastic surgeon is probably not the best idea.

One big boob — sounds like a euphemism for the presidency

Note the use of the phrase “routine surgery” to describe breast implants. Only in Los Angeles.

LDIV – That’s her, but I didn’t see any pics of the botched surgery yet.
Ingineer66 – Agreed. Like finding a discount Lasik doctor.
Veeshir – And it eliminates cleavage!
Rodney Dill – Well played.
John D. – Strangely enough, removing bullets is also “routine” there.

This is what happens when your doctor was top of his class at Acme Medical School.
