Reviews of Bangor Plastic & Hand Surgery: Branch David A MD (Plastic Surgery)

David P

In 2016 Dr. Branch did surgery on my nose, for functional as well as cosmetic reasons. The result was excellent and I remain pleased with it. Before the surgery, he carefully discussed the pros and cons and possible complications with me, so I felt he was straightforward and open. His staff was very attentive to my concerns. I think this is a first rate office and surgeon… would definitely recommend to my friends.

My 88 year old Mother was referred by the Bar Harbor Hospital to Dr Branch for a wound on the back of her hand. He immediately recommended a skin graph. She received a second opinion from a highly regarded plastic surgeon and hand specialist near her home in Pennsylvania who recommended that she let the wound heal without an complicated and expensive graph.

Dr. David Branch..performed and inplant exchange to biopsy a growth attached to my inplant..from previous DX in 1998. He did not wait for pathology report ..but instead matched straight through with inplant exchange. He was informed by pathogist during operation that growth was DCIS. He then performed liposuction fat grafting. Sent me home with a lie saying it was Atypical cells. Lied to my family too. After a reexcision of area by Breast surgeon it was found to be invasive Breast Cancer. He had been paid $13,000 dollar in advance for the procedure. I went to see him finally just before 3rd surgery to check Lyphme nodes..to ask him why? He finally told me he was halfway through procedure when he received biopsy report. He did not wait. I put my hand on his shoulder and asked him to fix it. Would he come to the node dissection operation and remove these inplants. He said he would try. He would draw on me what to do if he could not be there. 2 days beforehand his secretary wanted my insurance info. I informed her this was going to be on his dime. I was already in for surgery..all he had to do was remove them. When I got to the hospital at EMMC that morning for Surgery, Jan 15th..there was a charge I was confronted with. It stated my insurance would not pay and I had to agree to pay Dr. Branch an additional $10,000 to have him remove one inplant. I refused. I had to undergo radiation with these fat grafts..and the infants are a great hinderance to my surveillance and continued treatment. Dr. Branch was not only negligent..but he's heartless. Don't go to such a man as this.
