Had breast reduction in 2010. My scars weren't closing and kept getting worse and bigger. Every time I went to him he said it would get better. It just got worse. Turns out it was necrotizing fasciitis. My GP gave me an ointment and when I returned to Edstrom he had NEVER HEARD OF IT. It took exactly three months for my skin to heal from the day of surgery until I was no longer having a problem. Three months that I could not shower fully or feel normal in life. My scars are so ugly from the infection being untreated for so long. I'm just glad I went to my GP when I did. Do not go to Lee Edstrom. He has no idea what to do when you have complications. He will just tell you everything is fine....meanwhile your skin is being eaten by bacteria. Save yourself and find literally anyone else.

Having my sixth surgery to fix what this doctor did to my face. I have been plagued with numerous infections and permanent damage to my face. I went to him to have a small scar removed and now I have a scar on my face 10 times what was there before because of all the damage he did to my skin. My skin will never be right again. This doctor needs to retire. He is lucky he hasn't been sued by everyone he has operated on because he would be bankrupt.

I would never ever recommend Dr. Edstrom to anyone! He told me he could do my surgery a specific way that I wanted, then I awoke from surgery and he informed me he couldn't do it. I know 3 people who went to him all with the exact same results....their nipples are oval and place so high that they fall out of every bra. His office staff was rude. He didn't want to give more pain meds after initial script. He insisted my nipples would become round and symmetrical over time, its been 7 years since I had the surgery and still the same terrible results. I would never recommend him ever!!! Go anywhere else if you are thinking of getting a breast reduction.

Went to this doctor for surgery. He did not remove the cyst or cauterize anything and I developed horrible stitch abcesses and cellulitis and infection. It is two years later and I'm still having complications. I'm having my third surgery tomorrow to fix what this hacker did to my face. Do not go to this doctor or you will be sorry
