Dr. Waltzman and his team are 10/10. After having 3 children, having a breast augmentation was…read morereally something I wanted to do for me. I had a few consults before meeting Dr. Waltzman, and very soon after meeting him, I knew he would be the doctor I'd go with for my surgery, Not only did he and his team have the best energy, he was so incredibly knowledgeable and answered all my questions so clearly. Based on my wishlist, I ended up going with a new procedure - Motiva Preserve, a less invasive augmentation with minimal downtime. It worked great for my life and checked all my boxes. Throughout the whole process, The Waltzman Institute team really takes care of you. Surgery day is so easy with the surgery center right on site, and having a team of dedicated nurses throughout the whole day truly makes you feel really special! After surgery, doctor is just a phone call away if needed and he sees you consistently on your post-op journey to make sure everything is going smoothly. I have officially immersed myself in The Waltzman Institute now seeing Carissa for injectables and Dana for my facials. This place is special!!

Dr. Waltzman and the staff really took the time to explain my procedure options, and I ended up choosing the Motiva Preserve method which decreased recovery downtime and allowed me to return to "normal" activities within days of my surgery. I am a busy, working mom who just wanted to give the girlies a little enhancement, and I am 100% satisfied with my results. Also, now I get monthly facials there which are incredible and relaxing.

I was insecure about my body for years, I hid behind baggy shirts to hide my stomach because I looked pregnant. People would always assume I was pregnant so they'd ask me when I was due.

Thank you Chugay team! I feel amazing!! I'm greatful to every staff member who guided me through this journey. Thank you!

Dr. Hicks is amazing!!! He's honest, professional and caring. I went in for my consultation and he…read moreexamined me. He explained that he'd do his best. I had a case of severe stretch marks and my rectus abdominis was stretched beyond non-surgical options. I am very physically active my routine included crossfit, aerial yoga, hoops and dancing. My abdomen skin was floppy and I had a pouch no matter how much I exercised It was embarrassing to lift my arms fearing my abdomen would show. I was referred to Dr. Hicks by one of my Crossfit buddies. She told me he was great and he had a payment plan I was so excited. I made an appointment immediately for a consultation. I scheduled my procedure for December 14, 2019. I met with him a week before my surgery and I was able to ask him questions and discuss any concerns that I may have. He was honest and realistic in what outcome could be expected for my condition. I really appreciated his honesty. However, the results were better than I could every imagine. I received a Christmas card from the office wishing me Merry Christmas and a speedy recovery. If that wasn't enough, Dr. Hicks called me 3 days post op to check on me and one of his staff members called me 4 days post op to check one me. I went in weekly for about 3 weeks to be checked. He cleared me to receive Lymphatic drainage massages by Malena. I highly recommend these massages. The massages helped me to stand up straighter, decreased swelling, decreased soreness and just felt good. I had stretch marks above my navel so those remain, but they're not very visible and I can rock a two piece with no shame to my game. My body is summer ready. My scar is barley visible and I am looking fierce. I highly recommend Dr. Hicks. He's in Long Beach and I didn't have to go deep in the heart of Beverly Hills to get snatched.

I flew over 2,500 miles just to see Dr. Powers, after getting glowing reviews from friends and having wonderful phone consultations with her. Everyone from her staff to the hospital staff were outstanding and they all said the same thing "I wouldn't trust anyone else with my surgeries. Dr. Powers is the best!" She truly lived up to those reviews. After my surgery, she personally checked up on me to make sure I was healing well. She even made sure I sent her emails twice a week with photo updates. Even her staff made sure I got all of my questions answered when I called. I highly recommend Dr. Powers.

A few things went awry during my breast implant removal surgery. I knew there was a chance of losing a nipple, and I did. The other nipple ended up crooked and my breast has necrotizing tissue under the skin. I don't like to look in the mirror. She did tattoo me a set of nipples. Dr. Powers offered me a discount on a tummy tuck so I had it done. She sent me to a recovery facility where they encouraged me to walk upright and my wound opened up. Instead of gluing me back shut she allowed it to scar over the open tissue, making a scar so thin that the waistband of my underwear rubs against it and opens a wound which is easily infected. This went on for over a year with bandages and ointment from my PCP. Finally I came up with the idea of wearing maternity underwear and that seems to fix it. The underwear comes up to my bust. I'm going to have to wear the maternity underwear for the rest of my life or get a painful wound.

She told me it would be the third time I was rescheduling. I apologized and told her I have done my best to communicate with them why I was unable to make it. Given the way she spoke to me, I asked for her name and I asked to speak to a manager to which she responded that she was the manager. She rudely asked if I wanted to reschedule again. At this point I said no because I wouldn't even feel comfortable having to interact with her in person let alone have a procedure done here.
