Just a random thought whilst lurking the forum and sipping my coffee. We sing from the rooftops when a good result is achieved, praise the amazing clinic or surgeon. Yet when a poor result is achieved, it's more often than not blamed on physiology, patient regimen or the mysterious 'x factor'. Sure in some circumstances this might be the case. But I'm not sure if I'm buying it completely. We've seen the consistency surgeons are able to achieve from the likes of Konior, De Freitas and Bisanga. Are they just lucky and always get patients who don't have the mysterious 'x factor'? I don't think so. But as long as we continue to excuse or glaze over poor to average results, sub standard clinics will never be forced to raise their games.
