I had the scan done but was to afraid to have the surgery. Well. finally this year 2026, I decided to have it done. I contected the doctor who responded to me right away and then his team. On 3/31. I had three osteomas removed from my forehead by Dr Niamto. He was so nice along with his team. The surgery went well and I am bump free. Thank you Dr. Niamto for taking me on as a patient traveling from Parkville MD. I would recommend him if your looking to have your osteomas removed. Thanks Erica

I'm writing this review one month post-operatively regarding Dr. Joe Niamtu's work and staff. For…read morethe record, mine was a 4.5 hour procedure under full-anesthesia and included upper and lower blepharoplasty, face lift, neck lift, chin implant, and full CO2 laser resurfacing. Not a small undertaking. Although additional enhancement procedures such as cheek implants and a lip-lift were options offered, none were pushed on me and I chose not to add either. A child of the hippie and feminist era, I never thought I would consider such a denial of my authentic self! I started my dialog with the staff in May of 2025, put money down in June, with a surgical date established in September of 2025. Though living far from Richmond, I had done my research prior to scheduling and was reassured that I had selected the right surgeon by the website, testimonials, and video tutorials of Dr. Niamtu which thoroughly prepared me for what was to happen. That being said, I had LOTS of questions before and after. Dr. Niamtu has addressed all of them with understanding and patience. If questions concerned other members of his staff, such as the anesthesiologist or the surgical nurse, he had them contact me directly. In the preoperative appointment, he and I went over the results I expected, and he clarified exactly what could and could not be done. Despite the understandable anxiety of going under the knife, he and his staff made me feel safe and every concern was attended to before and in the post-operative weeks that I was in the area. I wondered if after I left I would get the same responsiveness from them, figuring that once the car is bought and paid for, the dealer takes his money and runs, but that is hardly the case with Dr. Niamtu. My concerns during the healing process continue to be addressed. Being from out of town, I chose to stay in the Richmond area a full two weeks after the surgery. I wisely chose Susanne Singer as my caretaker. I would have stayed longer if Dr. Niamtu had indicated it was necessary, but he gave me the green light to get on the plane at the 2-week point. Surgical nurse, Breeden Browning, was excellent for her skill, but also when I talked to her woman-to-woman about how to maintain my results going forward. I am still healing, but I got just what I wanted, a younger version of me. I had had a good run as a somewhat attractive woman for many years, but at 75 could no longer enjoy what I saw in the mirror. This surgery ensures my last years will be celebrating what I see there. I look like my 55-year-old self, which wasn't bad at all! Can't thank everyone-surgeon, surgical nurses, anesthesiologist, and admin staff enough. Now I know why everyone said in advance, you won't be sorry.

Being diagnosed with a BRCA1 gene mutation in my 20s was overwhelming enough -- but going into…read moresurgical menopause at just 30 years old felt like another life-altering blow. I honestly didn't know what to expect or how I'd manage the sudden, intense symptoms. Thankfully, I found Dr. Nathan Guerette. From the very first appointment, Dr. Guerette made me feel heard -- truly heard. He didn't rush me, dismiss my concerns, or treat me like I was just another patient on a schedule. He took the time to explain what was happening with my body, helped me understand the long-term impacts of early menopause, and most importantly, reassured me that I didn't have to suffer through it. What sets Dr. Guerette apart is his incredible bedside manner. There's a calmness and compassion in the way he speaks that immediately puts you at ease. He listened without judgment, validated my experience, and worked with me to find a solution tailored to my needs -- not a one-size-fits-all plan. That solution came in the form of biosynthetic hormone pellet implants, and let me tell you: they have been transformational. Within weeks of receiving the pellets, I noticed a huge reduction in hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and the emotional rollercoaster I had been riding. I finally started to feel like myself again -- not just surviving, but living. I'm so grateful to Dr. Guerette for his expertise, empathy, and unwavering support through one of the most challenging transitions of my life. If you're facing something similar -- BRCA1, early menopause, hormone disruption -- don't wait or try to tough it out alone. Go see Dr. Guerette. He listens. He cares. And he knows how to help.

I came here to have my wisdom teeth removed, from the first…read moreday I was in excruciating pain and within the first week I called the office three different times to tell them it didn't feel right and each time I was told that the pain is completely normal and they wouldn't even consider seeing me. The first two times I called I only spoke to someone at the front desk and the third time I insisted I speak to a nurse. The nurse looked at my x-rays that were taken before my surgery and said there was no way it hit a nerve or anything because of where it was located so the pain I was feeling was normal and I should expect it for at least two weeks... On day eight of the pain I finally called my actual dentist who confirmed that my pain should not be what it was for that length of time and confirmed that I actually had dry socket that needed to be packed because the blood clot wasn't there and that's why I was in severe pain. If the office would have listened to me earlier and had just seen me for a post op appointment as a general precaution then I wouldn't have had to suffer for as long as I did. It just felt like the staff here did not care and weren't listening to my concerns, definitely an upsetting experience!

They went above and beyond to answer my questions, keep me comfortable, and make sure I felt cared for at every step. My results exceeded my expectations, and the overall experience was exceptional from start to finish. If you're looking for top-tier care, a surgeon who is both talented and compassionate, and a team that treats you like family, I cannot recommend Dr. Lynam and his staff highly enough.
