Dr. Stephen Merrill Sundberg, MD

I had a mammogram, and the Radiologist said I needed a biopsy as soon as possible. The radiologist was very specific about the type of biopsy that I needed. Dr Sunderg that type of biopsy wasn't necessary. He did a needle biopsy and only got one tissue sample of the tumor. It was negative for cancer and Dr Sandberg recommended that "we just keep an eye on it. I insisted that the tumor be removed and it was invasive cancer. He's a nice person, but I don't trust his judgement.

Do not use this Doctor this guy ruined my life. He was to do a tummy tuck which is not the operation I was requesting but was told I needed to have it first before any insurance company would pay for the one I wanted. He deformed me like you could not believe I had a gaping wound for eight months from an infection. Right after the operation I went in for my first post opp.and he wanted to take out my drain tubes I had asked the nurse before he came in if she thought he would take them out she told me no I was still having alot of fluid discharged I asked him 3 times if he was shure they should come out, I told him I would rather be safe than sorry, He took them out.. What should of been a six week recovery ended up almost 9 months. It fells like he cut me with a dull handsaw to this day I feel terrible and deformed, I am embarrased to take my clothes off in front of a woman or any of my other Doctors, I really felt he would of stepped up to the plate and offer to fix what he did but he… did not and when I complained to Surgical Associates they told me not to come back and did not want to see me anymore I got totally SCREWED.
