After my visit at the office, I made an appointment to have the upper eyelid surgery. Had the surgery in early February. During the surgery, Dr. Iyengar told me what he was during throughout the whole procedure. I Just had my 7 week checkup and he stated that my eyes looked very good and are continuing to heal well. Have received numerous positive comments from family and friends about the amazing difference the surgery made my eyes look. Thanks, Dr. Iyengar!

I got a benign mass removed from my left eyelid from Dr. Iyengar. He is a skilled surgeon and…read moreremoved the mass well. However, his bedside manner is a zero. He was very chop chop in and out and treated me like a paycheck. He walked in with loops on, told me frankly that he would remove the mass and then numbed me up and cut it out. He did not go over the procedure before he did it nor aftercare instructions. He gave me a "you'll be fine" and sent me on my way. My experience did not align with all of the five star reviews and I would not see him again purely out of his lack of people skills.

I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Gregory Park and my experience with him. He performed my…read morebreast explant surgery without capsulectomy, and the entire process exceeded my expectations. I had no drains and virtually no pain. Honestly, the hardest part of recovery was reminding myself that I had just had surgery because I felt so good afterward, I had to consciously slow myself down and take it easy. That alone speaks volumes about Dr. Park's skill and technique. I am now two weeks post-op and I am beyond happy with my results. My breasts look almost better than what I started with. Even with the steri-strips still on, my incision is clearly healing beautifully. I've had no swelling, no bruising, and my recovery has been incredibly smooth. Dr. Park is truly gifted, and I felt confident and well cared for every step of the way. If you're considering explant surgery and want a surgeon who prioritizes precision, comfort, and outstanding results, I highly recommend Dr. Gregory Park.

He's truly an artist. First of all, I loved that he sat with me & explained ALL the pros/cons (of the surgery in general & of the different types of implants) in my consultation, so I could make an informed decision whether to proceed. I had a list of questions that he thoroughly answered. I sat with him for probably 45 minutes to an hour. His nurses, Elizabeth & Sarah, were extremely warm & knowledgeable about the surgery and pre/post op procedures. I called numerous times prior to surgery ( to ask about medication interactions, changing the size I wanted, types of post-surgery bras they recommended, etc) & they graciously answered my questions or had Dr. Park call me within the next hour. I've wanted to get the surgery done for a decade but was too anxious about complications and horror stories I saw online. But after my consultation & going into the surgery I felt 10000% confident in my decision. He sized me perfectly, accounting for my scoliosis & how one side of my chest protrudes out further than the other. His nurses also let me go into the office on Dr. Park's surgery days so I could try on sizes with different tops that I brought. Also, I appreciate that Dr. Park called me the night of my surgery to check in. I cannot recommend Dr. Park enough! Him and his staff are top-tier!!!

On June 21, 2025, I visited Avalon Laser to treat a few facial spider veins after seeing the…read moredoctor's work on social media and reading positive Google reviews. What I expected to be a routine cosmetic procedure unfortunately resulted in a much more difficult outcome for me (photos attached). Shortly after the treatment, leaky blisters formed, and about a week later they developed into scabs on the treated areas. When the scabs eventually came off, many areas appeared indented and concerning. During virtual follow-up consultations, I was told the healing process appeared to be normal. However, my skin continued to worsen, and I later sought care at an emergency room, where the injuries were documented as burns and I was referred for dermatologic follow-up. Avalon Laser offered additional treatment options, including a CO laser session or microneedling at their facility, and also suggested that I see a dermatologist in the Los Angeles area. I did undergo one CO laser session with Avalon Laser, but I ultimately decided not to continue treatment at the clinic because I no longer felt comfortable proceeding there. To their credit, the clinic checked in with me virtually on a regular basis and offered encouragement during the healing process. However, my recovery has been much longer and more challenging than I expected based on how my skin appeared. Since then, I have consulted with several specialists and undergone multiple treatments in an effort to improve my skin. The recovery process has been lengthy, painful, and uncertain. The clinic refunded the cost of the original treatment, which I appreciated, but it has not come close to covering the many additional medical visits, treatments, medications, and skincare products I have needed since then. The emotional impact has also been very difficult. For weeks I struggled to sleep and often cried at night. I became withdrawn and stopped seeing friends because I felt embarrassed about my appearance. What began as a simple cosmetic procedure has turned into a long and ongoing recovery. I attempted to pursue compensation through legal counsel and sent a demand letter, but I did not receive a response. I also followed up by email without success. I am sharing my personal experience so that others can be aware and carefully consider their options before undergoing treatment.

Now, I've had slight bruising before, which I assume isn't uncommon, but this looked like I'd been in a boxing match. And it took over 2 weeks to go away. I understand mistakes happen, but the part that was the most disappointing, is that when I reached out to the owner, she took no responsibility, didn't offer any compensation and basically blamed me for the results. I am not someone who typically complains, and I've never left a negative review for anyone, but I was so shocked by the terrible customer service and complete disregard for my situation, that I felt others should know.

My friend called me in tears and asked if I could please call and cancel her spot, but keep mine so I wouldn't cancel for both of us. As a business owner myself, I understand how important this is, so I explained the situation and confirmed that I would still come alone. The clinic said, "No problem." When I arrived, I was taken straight in for the procedure. I asked the price per unit and was told it's $11 with a friend, or $12 if you come alone. After finishing 60 units, I went to pay and was told that because I came without my friend, the price was actually $13 per unit. I was charged $760. No one warned me in advance that the price would change so drastically because my friend had an unavoidable medical emergency. When they asked me to come back in two weeks, I said "no." For the difference of $60-180, they lost a client. They got $760 once, but I will never return and will not recommend them to anyone. I believe this is unfair and unprofessional treatment of customers.

A friend of mine recommended Dr. Chasan, since my insurance could not do the surgery for another couple months. Once I stepped in Ranch and Coast, Dr. C explained his approach, I canceled with the other doctor, even though my insurance was going to pay for a large portion. Dr. C spent quite a while with me, answered all of my questions. I always feel like once you get in front of a Dr they make you rush, you end up, leaving with more questions and then answers. That was not the case at Ranch and Coast! I immediately felt a huge relief, and knew it was going to be a great outcome. Jennifer, from the surgery scheduling department really made me feel comfortable. And made the process extremely easy. I was dealing with two ruptured silicone implants from a previous surgeon, and was dealing with a lot of pain and infection. So getting me booked ASAP was a huge part of this as well. I was booked for surgery within 10 days of my consult, which was amazing! I was up and feeling great the next day, and they were already looking perfect! Dr Chasan minimized my previous scars, and did not require making it anymore. That was another reason I chose not to go to the other surgeon. It's been exactly 11 days since my surgery, I am so unbelievably happy! Not only am I feeling so much better from the removal of ruptured silicone, but they look so great. Love the cleavage and the way Doctor Chasan does breast surgery. I would highly recommend, and I already have. Two of my girlfriends are in the process of scheduling consults, after seeing how great mine look! I can confidently say he's one of the best surgeons in San Diego!

I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Chasan in January 2024 after researching surgeons for nearly a year. I…read morefound him on Reddit and was initially drawn to his specialization in the "Barbie-style" nose, which is surprisingly hard to find in the U.S. He also had overwhelmingly positive reviews, and I couldn't find any meaningful negative feedback, which gave me a lot of confidence. Since I'm not local, most communication was done by phone and email. His staff was initially very responsive and helpful, and my consultation, though brief, felt aligned. Based on that, I scheduled surgery the same day. Things started to feel off at my in-person pre-op appointment the day before surgery. I expected to meet Dr. Chasan for the first time, but instead was seen only by a nurse who seemed disengaged. The appointment consisted of photos and basic instructions. When I asked if I could meet the doctor, I was told he was unavailable. This made me uneasy, but with surgery the next day and already paid for, I felt I had no choice but to move forward. The morning of surgery, I was brought back and expected to proceed without seeing the surgeon. I had to specifically ask to meet with him before anything began. That conversation was brief but reassuring. We aligned on the aesthetic goals, which gave me some relief. The surgery itself went smoothly, and Dr. Chasan did call me the evening after surgery to check in. I am overall satisfied with my result. However, I do have a slight inverted V, which is concerning, as I worry it may worsen over time and potentially require correction in the future. I'm hopeful that being two years out it won't worsen, however I haven't been given the opportunity to speak with Dr. Chasan to ask about this. Unfortunately, the post-operative care is where my experience completely broke down. I had a scheduled post-op phone appointment with Dr. Chasan that he never attended- he never called. When I reached out to the office, I was not connected with him and was instead put on the phone with a nurse. I never actually spoke with the surgeon. I later followed up via email and was told that I was the one who failed to follow up, which was simply not true. After correcting this, the staff member apologized. Despite that, I have still never heard from Dr. Chasan again. For a procedure as significant as rhinoplasty, the lack of follow-up and accountability was extremely disappointing. While I am generally happy with my result, the absence of proper post-operative care and communication is something I cannot overlook.
