Many years ago, I went under the knife with Dr Lo and when I woke up, I was given larger breasts…read morethan I asked for because he said "they looked better". For many years, I have hated the size and my body when I look in the mirror. I never wanted larger breasts than I asked for. Dr. Lo is misogynistic and uses patriarchal control over women to get what he wants and to get his after photos to his liking; disregarding a woman's mental health, bodily autonomy and well being. Here I am, and for many years I have not had the money to fix them to how I personally wanted them originally. For myself. I have been in a lot of emotional pain for many years. (As well as a sub muscular tear which made my breast migrate into my armpit. I know the size must have contributed. I have never lifted heavy weights). I wanted to have small breasts all along and I believe I'd look great with them. Dr Lo's opinion of how he thinks a woman's body should look is degrading and speaks volumes about the type of man he is. A woman's voice is SO IMPORTANT when going under the knife, under anesthesia. No matter the shape or size of a woman, we glow most beautifully when we love ourselves in our body, get to have our own independence and be able to think for ourselves. No man should be able to take over you as soon as he puts you out and make MAJOR life altering decisions. Do not trust Dr. Lo with your body, he is just going to do what he wants or what he thinks "looks better" for you. And you might just wake up confused, in pain and unhappy for the next 20 years.

Only reason why I am giving two stars is because the initial breast augmentation was aesthetically…read morepleasing. Otherwise, one star would be left. I do not know where to start. Wide eyed and bushy tailed, I walked into my initial consultation several years ago and inquired about breast implants. I was determined to not have scars (shame on me for not doing more research; however, I trusted the "professionals"). They're great until something goes wrong or you are unhappy. First of all, under the armpit incisions are not the best way to go about putting something into the chest cavity. I mentioned I had some nerve damage and couldn't feel my entire arm down to my pinky for a year post procedure and was told this was caused by something else (not true) it was nerve damage from the implants, which has left me with numbness and arm pain to this day. The implants were also slightly squished after getting an MRI and were too large for my body as a whole. Almost immediately after I had this procedure, I experienced a wide array of symptoms, starting with the nerve damage, numbness and hair loss. I was a bodybuilder prior to the procedure and afterwards, could not do push ups or chest workouts anymore due to the damage they caused. The implant would freeze and almost cramp on the side I had issues with. After three years of Breast Implant Illness symptoms and nearly my entire body shutting down, I knew I had to do something after ruling nearly everything else out. I called and asked if Dr. Lo did implant removal and was told I could come in for a consultation. At this point, I was desperate to just have my life back. It was so bad that I could barely walk some days - from brain inflammation, to mitochondrial damage, hair loss, food allergies, brain fog, the list goes - Breast Implant Illness IS REAL. I went in for my consultation and was nearly in tears because I could hardly function and never knew what the day would bring only to have Dr. Lo smirk and mock what I was telling him. I said "are you mocking me?" And he stated he is a traditional doctor and treats symptoms. He said he could do the removal then back tracked and referred me to someone else (who I did not go to because any referral from a Doctor who mocks and laughs at you in a time of need is not one I would trust). His bedside manner during a time of distress and desperation was deplorable. My mother was in the room with me and she was nearly in tears afterward with the way he spoke and belittled my reality. I am floored that this is the way he treated someone who simply wanted to know the options for removal. There are tens of thousands of women whose bodies reject implants and if a doctor is too ignorant to recognize this then I would walk the other way. I would never recommend him to anyone. I ended up having them removed with a doctor in Bucks County and finally have my life back. YES the SYMPTOMS that you claim to "treat" have diminished and some completely disappeared already. If you treat "symptoms" then understand THE IMPLANTS were the issue because I feel like a human being again and everything has nearly gone away six months later. Wake up to the reality that implants are not safe and check your bedside manner.

on Aug 12th I had a major surgery, and on Aug 15th had unexpected urological complications that no…read moreone expected for which there was not a preexisting condition. Dr. Sloane was in immediate contact with me, and was nothing short of extraordinary in staying in touch, and was virtually on call at anytime. We spoke several times, he replied to texts night or day he guided the ICU nurse through a procedure. Post hospital, I went to his office (today) and he did a procedure that solved the problem. And now my body is functioning normally! But Dr. Sloane didn't stop there. As a precaution, he is sending mt to a get a ultrasound just to make sure all is well. He does all he does with super confidence and at the same time a close connection and empathy with his patient. I am so grateful to Dr. Sloane and recommend him highly to any man with urological issues or who needs a consultation. A true master at his craft.

Had a vasectomy last week. Dr. Sloane was great -- clear communicator, detailed questions, good…read moreprep/instructions, and seemed really personable and caring. Clearly really experienced, talked through all the details, things to look out for, etc; helped us understand how to think about what was important, rather than the textbook, neutral answers we've been getting from too many other doctors lately. The procedure itself was super easy; he talked me through what would happen and then what was happening, and checked in regarding pain and sensation along the way. Recovery has been way easier than I thought; only a tiny bit of swelling, the expected discomfort, but not painful. Overall, just a really great experience. The office staff was easy to schedule with, clear about availability, and flexible when I had to shuffle some things around. Other offices I called were hard to get through with, had distant availability, did vasectomies one day a month, couldn't confirm how long after a consultation I'd actually be able to book a procedure, had web forms that went no where, put me on hold for 30 minutes before terminating the call, etc. The one thing they need to work on is their tech -- email confirmations/calendar appointments and electronic docs or links instead of printouts (maybe they do this, but it wasn't apparent/offered?); the site has links to a patient portal, but it doesn't seem to work; they have a robo-caller call to confirm appointments, but it doesn't leave voicemails, so it just looks like you missed a call from the office. Anyway, thanks to Dr. Sloane & staff for making that easier than I expected!

Finding a podiatrist who actually takes insurance is a fool's errand. And yet, after calling dozens…read moreof numbers, I managed to find Dr. Eisenman, who is so wonderful that she's worth every penny, even if she didn't take my insurance (but I'm glad she does). Really thorough and excellent treatment, but also very kind and lovely as a person, which I find comforting in any doctor. Backstory - I've had flat feet ever since I was a kid, but it was only when I was in my 20s that I really started paying attention to it. After reading a few scary articles about the extreme consequences of not getting the condition treated by a podiatrist, I made an appointment and got my first pair of orthotics. Fast forward 10 years - I've been doing a lot of walking during the COVID19 pandemic to avoid public transit, and it quickly became obvious that my orthotics were completely worn out. After finally managing to find and get an appointment with Dr. Eisenman, I I was first impressed by how conscientious her office is about COVID19 safety measures. Then during the appointment, she went over my history, assessed just how low my arches were (essentially nonexistent), and tested my foot and leg muscle strength. Then she used specialized computer scanning technology to get me fitted for orthotics that would be appropriate for my walking pattern. The first podiatrist I went to definitely didn't have anything that fancy! Three weeks later I went back and picked up my new orthotics. Insurance doesn't cover those, but if they last me another 10 years, definitely worth it. Super happy with Dr. Eisenman's work, highly recommend her for all pediatric needs!

Dr. Eisenman is a wonderful podiatrist and i have had, and continue to have great care. However,…read moreshe sold her practice and is now an employee of a Reading based company called Health One. She had fitted me for orthotics before the sale. I needed a minor adjustment after the sale. She made a minor adjustment on the orthodic which took her less than a minute. I was charged $121. When I called the practice to ask about the charge, I was told by a very rude representative that if I see the doctor for even one minute, the charge is for a full office visit.

I had been diagnosed with having a sports hernia in about 2011. I didn't report it at work because…read moreI had a hernia the year before and thought it was some kind of scar tissue that I could feel. After finding out this wasn't the case,every doctor or orthopedic I saw they said they couldn't perform that particular operation but knew of someone who could. This was even told to me by the person who performed my original hernia. Each time I looked at the name they gave me it said Bill Myers. Bill Myers serviced the NFL,NBA MLB and NHL. With the I realized he didn't accept any insurance because these athletic teams would just pay cash and put way more money in his pocket.I even new the man that he took golf lessons from and Bill personally called me at dinnertime. I'm just a Union Bricklayer and 12 or 14 grand was a lot of money. I'm sure its much more now.When he called me for a consult I had no expectations.So he said bring 500 bucks and be there at a certain time to be evaluated He said to me you definitely have a sports hernia when do you want to get it done. I asked how much and he told me the same number as before. I wasn't looking for discount but I was hoping I could maybe get on a payment plan but that was something he didn't entertain. Complete waste of my time. Instead of just handing this guy the money he wanted for the procedure,I took my time and called across the country in order to find someone else who could perform the job. I got word another guy in my backyard could also do the job. His name was DR Alan SCHURICHT. I had already called PENN Hospital on 8th and Walnut in downtown Philly. When I asked why so secretive they said if not everybody with jock itch would be here.After sending all my test results and a 30 minute consult we were set up the following week to do the procedure. I was back to doing light squats in 3 weeks while my insurance was welcomed How about that a workingman has his insurance accepted so he can get back to his job. It turns out Sports hernia is just a street name for the injury that Doctors called sports hernia because its a newer injury that lots of athletes were getting that had no name. At the time it was considered exploratory because it was a new. Im pretty sure it was some kind of tear so insurance companies didn't consider it a hernia and therefore didn't know where the injury fit into the insurance coverage part of the business.ALAN SCHURICHT WAS A CLASS ACT AND WOULD BE THE FIRST OPTION FOR ME BECAUSE THE QUALITY OF HIS SERVICE WAS AWESOME. He was a Class act just a nice guy. Im a lil late on my review but I would love to hear what others may have gone through in order to get this procedure done.

From consultation to post-op care, he was attentive, precise, and never pushy. He understood I wasn't chasing "overdone." I just wanted a refreshed, natural look -- and that's exactly what I got. The brow lift was done at the hairline, not endoscopically -- which gave a smooth, lifted result without raising my hairline or creating a harsh "surprised" look. My upper eyelids are now clean and open, without that heavy fold I'd grown used to. And the revision rhinoplasty? Spot on. He corrected the flaws from a previous surgery without making my nose look pinched or generic -- just natural, centered, and elegant. Healing went smoothly -- no infections, no major bruising, no surprises. Just results. Dr. Heffelfinger has a conservative, artistic eye and a reassuring presence. I felt safe, seen, and cared for every step of the way. Jefferson Facial Plastics is top-tier -- clean, organized, and genuinely supportive. I would recommend him to anyone serious about facial work done right.
