At the age of 17, after a severe pedestrian vs. car accident, I had breast implants placed to…read moreaddress asymmetry caused by skin grafts. At the time, I was an uneducated teenager who didn't research surgeons. I ended up with implants that were too large and that I hated almost immediately. After 21 years, two children, and ongoing physical discomfort from the weight of the implants, I was ready to explant. Explant can be intimidating, as you're unsure about how much tissue you'll have left or what the results will be. For me, the added complexity of skin grafts and asymmetry made it even more daunting. I knew I needed to find the best surgeon possible to ensure I was happy with my results and that this would be my last breast surgery. I spent years researching surgeons, and although I always knew Dr. Robert Cohen was my top choice, I consulted with a few others. One surgeon warned that my skin grafts could result in severe asymmetry, and that the graft could even die. In contrast, Dr. Cohen's consultation was reassuring. He simply asked if my grafts were soft and pliable, and when I confirmed, he confidently stated that he could achieve the results I desired. His expertise and confidence gave me complete trust in my decision. Choosing Dr. Cohen was easy. I had followed his work for years and knew he was highly skilled, with a consistent track record of excellent outcomes. I trusted him to deliver the best results, and choosing him eliminated any stress or worry I had about my aesthetic outcome. Dr. Cohen was professional, confident, and direct. Two months before surgery, he drained my saline implants in a quick, painless procedure that gave me time to adjust to a smaller chest and get excited for the breast lift. Immediately after surgery, I was thrilled with the results. My breasts were round, perky, and natural-looking, with well-placed incisions that blended seamlessly with the curves of my body. Recovery was smooth, with minimal pain and no drains (unlike most explant patients). I had no complications, minimal bruising, and received excellent care and follow up from the nurses. The anesthesiologist, also Dr. Cohen, took the time to reassure me before surgery, which made me feel much more at ease. I'm grateful for his kindness. Dr. Cohen's staff was incredibly helpful and supportive, answering all my questions and guiding me every step of the way (special thanks to Laura). I feel lighter, look thinner, and my clothes fit better than ever. My breasts are fuller and more beautiful than I imagined--several friends have even commented that they look like smaller implants. Dr. Cohen is truly an artist, and I'm beyond happy with my results. My husband agrees, saying it was "money well spent!" Choose Dr. Cohen--you won't be disappointed.

He took the time to explain everything clearly and answered all of my questions with patience. It was clear how knowledgeable and experienced he is, which gave me a lot of trust and peace of mind. I actually traveled from San Francisco to Arizona for the surgery, and the entire team went above and beyond to help make the process smooth and comfortable. They were incredibly accommodating and supportive, which made traveling for the procedure much less stressful. The whole experience felt very professional and well organized.

The best experience with Dr. Paquet & team!…read more I injured the right side of my nose while playing with my dog (embarrassing). Urgent Care confirmed it was fractured, with a deviated septum and slight (but obvious to me) deformation. After much research, I called their front office - knowing this was a timely matter they got me in the same week. After the consultation, Dr Paquet recommended a Closed Nasal Reduction to pop the bone back out and scheduled me for surgery the next week to ensure it would be done within 14 days. This was my first surgery, so I was very nervous but his team was warm and tender throughout the entire experience. Cece & Sarah were my nurses - they really took the time to make sure I was okay and checked on me frequently while I waited. Dr Paquet (Anesthesiologist) came in with a smile and made sure all my questions were answered and calmed my fears. Tasha and Jeffrey prepped me and made sure I felt comfortable and safe. And last but not least, Dr Paquet (Surgeon) made sure I was ready to roll and then had me out in 16 minutes! It's now one week later and I couldn't be happier. My nose is exactly how it was before. 11/10 experience!

I asked again and explained that I had driven a long distance and that I could complete the paperwork quickly since there is not much to fill out. Nothing helped. I was repeatedly refused, with the only explanation being that the doctor was busy. She was telling me this during the time of the appointment itself when he need to be busy taking with me! All that without a single sign of empathy, only a dismissive and arrogant attitude. Regardless of how good Dr. Paquet may or may not be (I honestly don't even know), no one deserves to be treated with such disrespect and disregard.

In 2017 I made the worst decision of my life and chose to get breast implants. I went with a older…read moresurgeon who had good bedside manner. I thought I was making the right decision by choosing him. When I came out of surgery I discovered that he went over the muscle when most surgeons go under the muscle to prevent discomfot and encapsultions. I also discovered that he removed two moles on my stomach without consent so I could be (in his words) "bikini ready." Two days postpartum I judt didnt feel right. I called my surgeon and told him I didnt feel like myself. He told me it was called "boobie blues" and that I was coming down from the medications that I was pumped with while under anesthesia (fentanyl!). A week in I noticed my boobs were completely numb nipple down. He explained this was normal and feeling would come back within a few months (6 years later they are still numb). Since 2017 my symptoms have progressed. My boobs hurt 24/7 due to just thin skin holding up 375cc's. I started getting crippling anxiety 6 months in. Anxiety so bad that my body would shake while talking to even friends or family I was close with. Along with pain and anxiety came - thyroid imbalance (I now have to take a medication daily since shortly after surgery), hair loss, memory loss, absence/disconnectment/psychosis, constant fatigue, monthly sinus infections, random tongue swelling, reduced oil production on face and scalp, weight gain/swelling, body aches/joint pain. EVERYDAY for 6 years I have been experiencing these symptoms. I feel lost, I feel hopeless, I feel stuck. I carry around an epipen for fear of my life when my tongue swells and my throat closes. My left breast has been trying to encapsulate since the year it was put in. I went in to the surgeon over SIX times telling him I could feel and visibly see what feels like a bump or ripple on two spots of my left implant. Each time he squeezed my boob Incredibly hard until you would hear a "pop" which is tearing the scar tissue around it. One of the times they recorded it on their iPad so they could show my husband how to do it at home. I left each time with fingerprint brusies from him. The final time I went in for this reason my husband demanded he wrote an order for a MRI. He wrote the order but refused to pay for it. So no idea what's going on in there. Fast forward to 2020 during quarantine - his assistant messaged me and asked if she could send the video of him squeezing my boob to another patient of theirs who was having the same problem. I told them absolutely not!! I have researched hundreds of surgeons to have a total explant removal along with a full capsulectomy. The cost is more expensive then what I paid to have them put in. Getting implants have been the worst decision of my life and I will stop at nothing to get them removed. I have 2 young boys and am self employed. I feel like ive lost 6 years of my life and I am terrified to lose more. I even started an anti depressant this year and have tried Nutrafol and many other vitamins to help my hair and body heal. My hair comes out in handfulls. I have hated my implants since the day I got them and I wish I could go back in time.

Lucky for me, and my husband, we have known Dr. Bass and his "dream" team for close to thirty years…read moreand he has performed his magic on both of us, along with several of our friends, after seeing our results. Dr. Bass in our opinion is one of the most talented plastic surgeons in Arizona. He has come through for us every single time and we have asked a lot of him. I'm not sure I would have done all the surgeries I have done without his and his nurse, Norma's guidance and expertise. They work as a team and are totally professional and very very particular about my care and outcome. I feel they are not only medical staff to me but friends for life. He has an unbelievable bedside manner and makes us feel everything will work out and be perfect. Here's the bad news: He is retiring this year and so this last procedure is it for me. And of course, he did another outstanding job on this very old gal. Lol. He will be so missed and Scottsdale AZ is losing a very talented, hard working, and as he has been named several times, TOP DOCS, in Arizona. We will miss you Norma and Theresa terribly but keep in mind you all have made so many of us so very very happy over the last 30 years. We love you all and hope all three of you have many wonderful retirement years. Marlene and Kevin Grimsley

I saw Dr. Chasby today and left crying and frustrated. I was severely bitten by a dog a few months…read moreago and was left with a U shaped scar on my thigh. The dog was unleashed and the owner about 10 feet away in my apartment complex. I am now permanently marred by his animal. I booked this appointment a few weeks ago and have been waiting. After filling out 10 min of paperwork I he literally looks at it for a minute and tells me that scar revision would not help the scar that I have. Mind you another doctor emailed me saying he could get it close to invisible for $2k. Dr. Chasby told me that it was permanent but refused to make a record of his medical opinion which I needed for my law suit, saying it wasn't as bad as other scars he's seen. Just because it isn't as bad, doesn't mean it still isn't a permanent ugly bite mark on my body that I do not deserve and will have for life. It's my body, and I WILL BE THE ONE who decides what looks 'fine' on MY BODY. He then stated that he "could not give me extra padding if I planned to file a law suite." No sir, I am not requesting that. But I am requesting you make record of the professional opinion you gave me that I am indeed permanently scarred. He then had the nerve to tell me that my legs looked great regarding their muscle tone attempting to distract me from my frustrated tears. This experience was completely unprofessional on multiple levels. Thank you for wasting my time today Dr. Chasby.

Dr. Matatov was my second consultation, and the difference was night and day. From the very beginning, he made me feel confident that I would be in the best hands. He took the time to truly understand my fears and concerns, not just mine, but also those of my family members who came with me to appointments. He made us all feel at ease. I came prepared with a list of questions, but honestly, he answered most of them before I even had a chance to ask. His thoroughness, compassion, and confidence made all the difference in my journey. I couldn't be happier with my results--being cancer-free is, of course, the most important outcome, but he also did an exceptional job with the reconstruction. Dr. Matatov is not only a skilled surgeon but a truly caring professional. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing this journey or considering any type of plastic surgery. He made one of the most difficult times in my life more bearable, and for that, I am incredibly grateful.

I began this journey nearly two years ago, and saying that it has been one of the worst decisions…read moreof my life would be an understatement. The number of complications I have experienced, the significant amount of money I have had to pay, and the ongoing medical expenses I continue to incur have left me regretting my decision to undergo reconstruction every single day. I made the decision to pursue reconstruction approximately 10 years after my cancer diagnosis, believing it was the right choice for me. Unfortunately, I now deeply regret that decision and often wish I had never made it. My experience with this office has been extremely disappointing. I have encountered repeated issues with availability, communication, compassion, and empathy. Today's experience was particularly unacceptable. I waited more than an hour for a postoperative appointment while having an open wound that, from my perspective, has not received the level of attention or concern I believe it requires. I can visibly see tissue within the wound, yet I have felt as though my concerns have been minimized. At my first postoperative appointment, I was seen by a different surgeon who simply advised me to wash the area with soap and water and stated that it was fine. However, the incision was completely open. Given the circumstances, I found that response extremely concerning and dismissive. During my second postoperative appointment, I was left waiting in an examination room for more than 55 minutes without anyone coming in to provide an update. I eventually had to ask what was happening, at which point I was told that the doctor was busy with another patient. If the doctor was running significantly behind schedule, I believe I should have been informed before waiting for nearly an hour. After one hour and 20 minutes, I decided it was best for me to leave without being seen as I also have duties and responsibilities to attend to. I understand that medical emergencies and unexpected circumstances can arise, and I recognize that physicians may occasionally run behind. However, basic communication and consideration for a patient's time and concerns should still be provided. If I treated a client this way in my own professional life, I would expect there to be consequences. As a patient, however, I feel as though I am left with very few options and very little recourse. I am extremely disappointed by the care and communication I have received throughout this process. After nearly two years of complications, additional expenses, and emotional distress, I expect my concerns to be taken seriously and addressed with the appropriate level of care, professionalism, communication, and empathy.

I went for a service on July 1st and again the stylist tried to throw on a system that didn't fit. When I challenged her she threw a fit and returned with the manager who was less than courteous. After the impromptu measurement session it was confirmed that the system was inadequate due to its small size. What was the response? Perhaps, check stock for correct size system? Perhaps, reattach the existing system and put in an order for the correct size? No. This managers response was to order the stylist to put the incorrect system on anyway, then just walked out without saying a word. After this the stylist never bothered to ask anything about the cut. She just chopped super short without saying a word. A system that's too small doesn't work and immediately loosens because it's a smaller area, and has nothing to bond to. This center couldn't care less about this I suppose. So now we're into the Summer Travel and I'm stuck with a system that looks like a hat. They couldn't care less. I'll just start getting services out of state. Phoenix definitely needs a new center.
