In this compelling and deeply personal interview, I sit down with Orah Banyini Dube, a remarkable individual wearing multiple hats-she's a devoted wife, a nurturing mother, and a driven fashion entrepreneur based in the vibrant city of Johannesburg.
Orah's journey took an unexpected turn when she embarked on a quest for a transformative makeover in early 2021, opting for a breast augmentation procedure. Anticipation and excitement filled her heart as she eagerly awaited the results that she hoped would align with her aspirations for self-enhancement.
However, the outcome of this life-altering decision was far from what she had envisioned. Instead of the confidence-boosting transformation she sought, the procedure turned into a distressing experience-leaving her grappling with the aftermath of a botched surgery.
Join us as Orah courageously opens up about her emotional rollercoaster, sharing the raw and unfiltered realities of her journey. Her story serves as a poignant reminder of the unforeseen challenges that can arise when seeking personal change, shedding light on the importance of careful consideration and informed decision-making.
Tune in to this impactful episode as Orah Banyini Dube unravels her heartfelt account, a tale of hope, resilience, and the unwavering spirit to overcome unexpected hurdles on the path to self-discovery.

Performing surgery is like building a house more practice the better . The Dr might be qualified but experience matters a lot

@paulinahtsotetsi5072 5 ай бұрын

When it comes to Dr's I prefer old doctors because of the experience in the field. My gynae/obstetrician was 72 years old in 2015, my son's urologist who was very old (80 something years), our ENT is also old. in a nutshell when choosing Dr's/specialists I go for older ones and they are the best.

This should be a lesson to a lot of woman out there... Here's my take: as woman especially mothers it is completely normal for one's body to change after every pregnancy or just aging, wether we like it or not the body goes through a lot of changes 😢 is not easy to accept but it the reality we're facing and i think we just have to work hard on accepting the changes and continue with life. Guys we're already going through a lot why also put our bodies under unnecessary pain that has a chance of taking a worse turn. No body is. Perfect and no body ever will be perfect that's just the reality 😊

It's easy to give advise to such situations more especially when you haven't gone through it. If the result was positive this was going to be cheered on. Every surgery is risky and before you do it, you know that the outcome could be negative or positive.

@@PanaNorBobo Hi my love ❤️ I'm sorry if I said anything offensive 😞... I only meant that to me it's a lesson that I should accept my body as it is and also accept the changes that comes with pregnancy and aging and also encourage the upcoming generation to embrace all that to avoid such results... I apologise if it came out negatively ❤️

I do not think the doctor is a scam, I think he rushed to have his own practice/ surgery he wasn't eligible to work on his own he needs to work with someone who has been practicing to learn from before he can be independent same as any other career you can't qualify now from the school and think that you are ready to work on your own even though you did your practical training program we need to give ourselves time to serve under someone to be supervised before you start you own thing and this doesn't mean black doctors are bad he just underestimated the need of a mentor or wasn't advised well gore just because you qualify to do something doesn't mean you are capable of doing it, handle it or afford it or else you will tarnish your name which will take away your ability to provide for your family and to do what you like or have studied for

@leonyfourie3792 6 ай бұрын

Anyone considering surgery must sign a informed consent. This means that the doctor must tell you about possible complications. All surgeons will have a complication at some point. This must should be handled professionally. The HPCSA does not say a surgeon should refund you in case of a complication but you must be informed upfront that there may complications.

Extra-ordinary self drvien black businesswoman. The passion to give business to fellow black person is so true, as I can second that as she support myself in my Quality/Health & Safety business. Important to learn from what she is saying here is DUE DILIGENCE, which also talks to such practice having an ISO 7101:2023 Quality Management for Healthcare. It shall be well ODB!

And never decided on a particular doctor based on their social media post. They only share their best work and don't be easily impressed by the work they have done celebrity influencers, again that's their very best work.

Your caution is wise. We should always remember that social media is a highlight reel. It’s essential to look beyond and get a full picture of a professional’s track record before making a decision.

I think the surgeon was qualified but not really experienced.I also don't think it is fair on him to ask you to pay for the corrective surgery. He is the one who was at fault. I actually think the reason why he only had two reviees on his side was because he was threatening people with negative feedback to delete their comments. A big red flag

im sorry but this lady was naive and gullible how do you take the doctors word and two reviews as a go ahead to make permanent changes on your body?????? she should stop saying she did he research because clearly didnt and because if she did ,all this would have been prevented - and for mere fact that she chose the second doctor just because he was cheaper when she said herself that the first one was more detailed is just crazy business if she really wanted to do the procedure she could saved up for the R15 000 to go to the "better" doctor not that she deserved it but 2 reviews and someone just making you comfortable can never be a good reason to trust someone about to do surgery on you and sometimes this mentality ya gore i want to support black business wont work for every situation batho ba ba nthu like monetising every single thing - they can see you are in desperate need and will still scam you and now who lives with the after effects/consequences YOU sometimes just stick to the "white" people even for just a second opinion before doing something so drastic
