This surgeon gave me my life back. Two years prior to visiting her office I had underwent my first Nuss procedure under another surgeon. It was an absolute nightmare. She placed an implant which was profoundly too large in a location no where near my actual deformity She would not acknowledge any type of mistake in her work It was my own intuition that even allowed me to find someone who could help me, as the first surgeon attempted to convince me everything looked great. I was on pain narcotics the entire time I sought a second surgeon from the resulting over-sized implant, that actually caused Pectus carnitum.
Finding Dr. Dawn Jaroszewski gave me my life back. She took out the old implant (17") an placed two 14" bars in the actual location of my P.E. She is exceptionally talented and did for me what other surgeons were afraid to do. The entire experience was extremely pleasant. Between her skills, her surgical teams abilities, and the outstanding hospital stay, there is nothing more a person could ask for.
