Words cannot express how I feel about Dr. Chen and Richmond Plastic Surgeons. I'm very particular…read moreabout who, what, or where I go for any personal services or eateries. I research everything thoroughly, and I'm also very brutally honest. If you don't know how I feel about you in the first five minutes of interacting with me, then you're obviously dead, or close to it.
I had been researching for some personal service providers for almost five years. I first went to Richmond Plastic Surgeons in 2018 with one of the other doctors in the practice. I was not ready at the time, but they were on the top of my list. I left feeling disappointed but encouraged. I read both negative and positive reviews about Dr. Chen and the practice, but it's like anything you're spending money on, be it a restaurant or personal care--it's either for you or not. Also, sometimes your spirit is just off, and the timing isn't right. I also saw unbelievable results by patients who had procedures done by him. They always raved about his skills, his bedside manner, and the results.
I write reviews often, but only if I feel compelled to share my experiences. I hate to say this and sound insensitive (not really, lol) to the experiences of the other reviewers who felt that they didn't have the best experience with Dr. Chen. I must say that I have read raving reviews about this fake misappropriating Cuban alleged food restaurant in town that serves the nastiest food, and that disgusting place is always jam-packed, which I don't understand. So, I don't take too many reviews seriously. The man is good, but if you feel like crap about yourself and are a sight to begin with, then I don't know that anyone can help you.
Also, the one type of practitioner that I DEMAND to be confident and cocky is the effin Plastic Surgeon who's working on me! Jeez Louise! Don't you? You better have a Semi-Stank badass attitude! IJS! I want them so secure and confident about the gifts of God they have been blessed with, that it's almost disgusting, lol. I want to leave assured that they're going to do what I request of them, not what they want to do with me, and I demand brutal honesty.
In 2018, I was advised to wait (sometimes we want to do what we want in spite of the risks to everyone; we can be delusional). This year, I finally had enough and bit the bullet and decided it was time to take care of myself. From the moment I met him, I knew he was the one. He was friendly, attentive, professional and confident. He listened to what I wanted and gave me his honest opinion. Dr. Chen advised me that he didn't feel comfortable doing something I requested, and although I wanted what I wanted (delusion overload), I'm glad I listened to the expert. I'm so thankful and glad I went the route Dr. Chen helped me plan out for myself, or my experience might not have been as fruity and pleasant as it was. He explained everything in detail and answered all my questions. He showed me before and after photos of his previous work, and I was blown away by the transformations. I decided to give him a try and booked a consultation.
After my procedure he came to the hospital each day I was there, and he and his staff have been accessible through every step! He made me feel comfortable and confident. Angie and Sochi *sp. even made it onto my Christmas list, lol (A very difficult list to get on, lol) I scheduled my surgery, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Dr. Chen did for me exactly what I wanted and went beyond my expectations. He is a miracle worker! He gave me the body I always dreamed of, repaired so many of my existing issues, and helped restore the confidence I haven't had in quite some time (believe it or not, I was more confident in my obesity than I am now). He changed my life for the better.
If you've never happily cursed or cried, then he's not the doctor for you, but every time I look at myself, I don't believe the transformation, and can't believe how much easier Dr. Chen and his team made my healing process go. The practice is only as good as its leadership, and you better believe the team is thorough (another significant selling point). They were caring, supportive, and helpful throughout the whole process. They made me feel like family.
My reviews are pretty consistently my authentic self. I'm not saying he might not have been an ass to someone, or someone at the practice dropped the ball, that has happened to me. IJS do your due diligence, don't take it from me. At the end of the day, it's all about me!
I can't recommend Dr. Chen and Richmond Plastic Surgeons enough. If you're looking for a top-notch plastic surgeon who can deliver amazing results, look no further than Dr. Chen. He is the best of the best. Trust me, you won't regret it. Thank you, Dr. Chen, for making me look and feel fabulous! You are a star! I'm so f*****g grateful & happy!!
