A woman calling for her pre-op consult had one question before anything else: is the surgeon going to leave as soon as the surgery's over? Jackie's answer was no. But the question itself is now what every woman wants answered — because in Cincinnati, a 47-year-old mom of three went in for a mommy makeover and never came home.

Rachel Tussey documented her surgery prep on TikTok for weeks before going in at Journey Light Surgery Center in February. Her husband was told everything went great. Minutes later she was unresponsive. Dr. Chang and Jackie pull apart what the family was actually told — "without oxygen for six minutes" — and why that phrase probably came from the hospital later, not the recovery room.

They get into why anesthesia is the layer of surgery you should trust most rather than fear, how pain medicine absorbing too quickly in fat can change a recovery room in seconds, who's actually at risk for a clot or embolism, and why outpatient surgery is not the safety downgrade people assume. Plus: the surgeon is now suing the surgery center.
