Patient Says £15,500 Glasgow Breast Surgery Led to Sepsis and Implant Removal as Clinic Defends Care

Her account highlights disputed aftercare, a hospital sepsis diagnosis, plus ongoing barriers to corrective treatment.

Overview

  • Lisa Hart, 45, underwent a four-hour breast reduction and reconstruction at a Glasgow clinic on May 7, 2025, paying £15,500 and leaving about an hour after surgery.
  • About a week later she noticed luminous green-yellow discharge from her right breast, developed a small hole, and says the clinic repeatedly reassured her despite worsening symptoms.
  • On June 9, 2025, Ayr University Hospital staff took a swab, diagnosed sepsis, and removed the right implant; she remained hospitalized for 10 days.
  • She reports lasting effects including asymmetrical breasts, anxiety, and treatment for stress-related angina, and says other providers have declined corrective surgery.
  • The clinic issued a statement asserting commitment to safe, high-quality care and a robust governance and complaints process, advising patients with unexpected symptoms to seek prompt medical attention.
