    Echavez, the reason being I needed too many Restalyne treatments to make a difference, and that would make it very costly.

    I'm so happy that I chose Dr. Ransom do my rhinoplasty. He designed a surgical plan that helped to…read moremeet my goals, while also keeping in mind what would suit my facial features. He was realistic and upfront about what limitations existed due to my facial anatomy, and what would be safe and flattering in the long term. I appreciate how personalized my consult felt, and that my surgical plan fit me rather than whatever nose is "trendy". Despite the significant changes made to my nose during my rhinoplasty, I didn't even bruise! I'm healing well, and I couldn't have asked for better results! I cannot stress enough how wonderful Dr. Ransom's team is. As someone who is usually a bit nervous with medical procedures, I really appreciate how empathetic and attentive his team is. Holly and Emily were very responsive and helpful with scheduling, notes, etc. Yesenia was amazing at answering all of my questions about my prescriptions and aftercare. Patricia is so kind, and I feel very grateful she was there for me pre/post-op. I would enthusiastically recommend Ransom M.D. to other rhinoplasty seekers!

    Although I had my procedure done early 2025, I had to write this review because my experience at…read moreDr. Ransom's office has been haunting me. I needed a blepharoplasty for my heavy eyelids and found Dr. Ransom on Yelp listed as an excellent, kind, friendly doctor. The consultation was great, Dr. Ransom listened to exactly what I wanted, assured me that not too much would be removed and was very kind. I felt like I was going to be in good hands. A woman at the office took me into another room, showed me some before and after pictures, (though I'm not sure she made note of which ones I liked), and I asked how long is the recovery time, she said "Oh just a week, you can have your procedure Monday and stitches removed Friday." Great, I took a week off. Monday, the day of procedure, before the procedure, we were in a room and Dr. Ransom was getting things together in a rush. I was surprised he didn't confirm what we talked about or go over what he about to do. So I said, "just a little off eyelids and subtle right?" He just said "right" as he was assembling things. I asked "can you please go over the procedure?" and he did. At the beginning of the procedure, his Assistant placed a slightly adhesive pad on the side of my belly, (to monitor my vitals during the procedure). He injected anesthetic around my right eye, then my left eye, (though I noted that he didn't inject/spend as much time injecting my left eye). The procedure was going well, I felt no pain as he starting on my right eye, (though it was unsettling that Dr. Ransom and his Assistant were having casual conversation while working on my eyes-I know he must have done this procedure hundreds of times before, but still - this is my face). Towards the end, Dr. Ransom spent a good amount of time with the stitches on my right eye, but when he started on my left eye, I really felt pain, said it really hurts and "Ow." I realized he must have run out of anesthetic in his syringe when he got to my left eye and just didn't bother to get another syringe. Instead of stopping to give me more anesthetic, he just kept saying, "we're almost done, we're almost done." After reeling from that, his Assistant proceeded to slowly tear off the adhesive pad on my belly, (which is slightly hairy), and I yelped "Ouch!" I was too caught off guard to tell him to just rip the pad off like a bandaid and the Assistant kept saying "sorry, sorry" as he continued to slowly tear off the pad. After I continued to say "ouch, ouch!", Dr. Ransom said, "Oh your little hairs." So in addition to being in pain, I'm now belittled. Feeling terrible from this, I got dressed, shuffled to the Receptionist and scheduled stitches to removed that Friday. Close to Friday, the Receptionist called me to say my appointment was moved to Monday. I said but I took this week off and have to go back to work Monday. She said the doctor said I would get better results if I waited a couple more days to have the stitches removed. It seemed like a lie because why did they have schedule the appt for Friday originally? Silence from her, implying there is nothing I can do about it. Following the appointment, to minimize scars, I was to have 3 small laser zaps at the ends of each eye, administered by the Assistant. I have deep horizontal creases at the ends of my eyes, (had them for a long time), and I asked the Assistant if there was a procedure to address those. He said maybe some filler can help with the "canyons." I had to laugh at the exaggeration and cruelty of the term. I looked at him when he said it and I honestly believe he wasn't trying to be mean, that really was the word that came to his mind. Although ultimately results of the blepharoplasty were perfect, due to the experiences above, I just can not bring myself to go back to that office. I do believe Dr. Ransom is kind, it just may be another situation of having too many clients lined up back-to-back.

Nancy at the front desk was wonderful throughout the process, even when I had to reschedule my surgery--she was so understanding and accommodating. I also met Nurse Helen at my pre-op appointment, and she was amazing! She answered all my questions and gave me her number to text if I had any concerns. On surgery day, Nurse Lisa was by my side, comforting me, I even asked her to hold my hand, she made me feel safe and well taken care of. I also want to mention the anesthesiologist, who was fantastic and made sure I felt in good hands every step of the way!. I feel incredibly lucky to have had Dr. Elyassnia and his team take care of me. If you're considering rhinoplasty, I highly recommend Dr. Elyassnia and his amazing team!

I couldn't keep food down for weeks and lost over 12 pounds. After four rounds of antibiotics, I am back to normal finally. Now my hair has been falling out and my right breast has not healed properly. I intend to find another surgeon to correct his mistakes. Despite his credentials, I don't think he is qualified. Like others, I worry about why it took so long and everything that happened while I was out. On a separate note, I felt very uncomfortable with him pushing a specific, very expensive bra. If it were comfortable, I could understand but it is quite irritating fabric. When I asked for a different suggestion, he continued to push this bra. I believe he is getting kickbacks from this manufacturer.

    For context, I received 3cc facial Renuva injections in Beverly Hills two years ago but that…read moresurgeon didn't numb my face and those injections were more painful than actual surgery. Fast forward to this year, I read that Dr. Rajagopal was the number one Renuva provider in the country and her website stated that numbing cream was used. I was terrified of more pain but hopeful that this experience would be less painful. At this office, numbing cream was literally applied to my face for 30 minutes and then ice was applied afterwards. Although the injections were still painful, they were much more tolerable. Dr. Rajagopal has a gentle hand, a kind demeanor, and good aesthetic sense. I've seen four other different plastic surgeons but Dr. Rajagopal has given me the most faith in doctors. I wish that I had known about her earlier. I would definitely come here for Renuva injections or other treatments as needed. They are not inexpensive at 2500 for 3 cc. Dr. Rajagopal clearly cares about people and their comfort. This is very important as any surgery or injection is a stressful experience so bedside manners and genuine concern is priceless. The only odd thing was that I was presented the bill during numbing by a staff member. Payment is expected after treatment and I knew the cost beforehand so it was strange to get the bill during the middle of the procedure and then after the procedure again. I would have been happy to pay in advance if they are worried about people leaving without paying. In any case, the office staff was nice. There was easy and free private parking provided. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Rajagopal for her keen aesthetic eye and caring demeanor.

Not only that, he shares his passion in the form of highly informative articles and photos. If you're considering any procedure, he's probably written about it, has made it easy to find online, and what he says makes sense: Facts over fanfare, experience over hype. After being his patient for more than a year, I decided to have him be the person to surgically lift my drooping eyelids. This was something I had been considering for years, for when the time was right, and for me it was a really big deal. I like my face, and what he did made me look like a brighter, fresher me, and improved my vision as a bonus. It doesn't look "Done," just nice.

The doctor recommended a breast augmentation combined with a lift on the lower side to correct the asymmetry. The original quote was $9,500, but with the additional lift, the total cost increased to $13,000. I agreed to proceed, trusting the doctor's recommendation. Unfortunately, after the surgery, my breasts are still uneven -- one side remains higher and the other lower, with no real correction of the original issue. The only noticeable difference is that the size is larger. In addition, the incision around the areola was done unevenly and closed poorly, leaving very visible and unattractive scarring. After healing, I also developed a hard lump in the breast, which has caused ongoing pain. I have had to return for follow-up visits every 3 months, and to this day, the pain has not improved. This experience has been extremely disappointing -- not only financially, but also physically and emotionally. I trusted this doctor to fix an existing issue, but the outcome did not meet expectations and has caused further complications.

I remember thinking to myself, "this feels right"..the perfect mix of professionalism, superior knowledge with a warm, kind and patient bedside manner. Initially, I was looking for a plastic surgeon to remove a growth on my eyelid. After discussing my eye situation, I asked "so what would you do with my face at this time (if anything)?? He proceeded to analyze my face and tell me what he could do to refresh my appearance.

It was important to me I work with a doctor who respects the natural anatomy of my face and body...someone who had experience working on men.

At first my partner wasn't on board, unable to look at things objectively...he was afraid I'd look like a different person and felt I didn't need anything done. I called Dr. Anthony's office and told Keara "I am having some trouble with my partner ". The next day Dr. Anthony himself called me and suggested we both come in for another consultation.
