A Florida woman accused of posing as a licensed plastic surgeon now faces charges after one of her patients says the nose job she performed left him disfigured.
Doral police arrested 56-year-old Alcalira Jimenez De Rodriguez as she operated on another patient Thursday, according to the Miami Herald.
Jimenez De Rodriguez had been working at the Millennium Anti-Aging and Surgery Center in Doral, according to police.
Police said they received a complaint about Jimenez De Rodriguez in February from Vincenzo Zurlo after the alleged victim in the case underwent a rhinoplasty procedure.
Zurlo told WTVJ that he was awake during the entire surgery, which he said left him in extreme pain. He said he was disappointed with the results, and when his nose didn’t heal correctly he agreed to a second operation to fix the work, but it was also unsuccessful.
He recalled being alarmed when Jimenez De Rodriguez prescribed him pain medications, because he said she did so using another doctor’s name.
“She cannot do my nose right, she prescribed me the medication from another doctor, she cannot find a solution to my pain so something is wrong, something has to be wrong,” he told WTVJ. “She ruined my life.”
Jimenez paid $2,800 for the surgeries, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

A LOT of dumb peopleg get “bargain” plastic “surgery”.
If you have a hour to burn, watch just about any “Botched” episode.
If she is from the Mother Country, then it is good.
Oh no! I was scheduled for this doctor to do my manhood enhancement procedure. How can I go on my cruise without getting my MEP done first?
Ai-eee-yi-yi-yi. Bad things keep happening to me.
Can i get some sympathy?
So what is the upshoot? Is this dr illegit? Why is he referring to this doctor as a ‘she’ when the name is Jimenez? Isn’t that a male name?
Close. She’s apparently Venezuelan. In some cases, these fake docs do have some medical training in their home country. They’re not competent, skilled or literate enough to get a U.S. license, but they (correctly) perceive this country as one that lets immigrants get away with a lot of crap, so they just go for it.
(Cue the Seinfeld reference)
Is it really a she or did she fake that too?

Good thing it wasn’t halfway through a boob job, because lopsided.
He must be an illegal alien. Why else would you allow such a “Doctor” to take a knife to your face not once, but twice?
A “Doctor” who doesn’t even know how to properly sedate their patient?
This sounds like an Elective Procedure or one that is vanity based. He didn’t need to do it. A necessary procedure may be something like a Hare-Lip disfigurement. That is not reported here.
He probably assumed that someone presenting themselves at a clinic would have been vetted before they could work there.

Well if the surgeon is made of plastic, of course they are fake...goodness.
Just like a TV show.
Obviously, the social worker accompanying the police will finish the procedure.
