- Was seen at The Pines Hospital No chaperone Was left feeling very uncomfortable following Dr Lim's consultation. Following this, Dr Lim did not even go ahead with the surgery and basically fobbed me off talking extensively on the phone about diet and exercise.
- Did otoplasty surgery a few years ago. There isn't enough in here for me to write a full review. Only wanted one earlier doing but he advised to get both in hindsight that was a mistake. Since surgery I have a numb right ear, keloid scars on both and had 8 rounds of steroids.
