My results are fabulous and I couldn't be happier with the service and the results I have received from Dr. Rousso and his amazing staff! I would highly recommend Dr. Rousso for any service that you need.

I was so excited for my consultation for breast augmentation. The staff was friendly, but Steinmetz…read morewas so incredibly awful. I felt judged the entire time he was in the room, and he rolled his eyes at me at least 4 times over my life choices, such as how long I breastfeed my children, my goals for better looking breasts, etc...I felt humiliated. It was already very uncomfortable for me to show my breasts, and have them handled and analyzed by a strange man in front of my husband....and would have been the same (or worse) even if my husband wasn't w me...I fought back tears after he left the room. He acted like I was ridiculous and freakish for favoring larger implants over anchor scars bc of my current breast size. And how dare I consider that possibility...not knowing anything about plastic surgery.... His assistant was very "salesy" and tried to talk me into a lift or reduction instead of implants. Maybe that's my only option...but the scars were VERY visible no matter how hard she tried to convince me they weren't. I understand bc of my anatomy, I may have limited options, but we said from the beginning, anchor scars were a deal breaker. His portfolio was unimpressive, and a lot of women's breasts looked better to me and my husband in the before pics than the afters. I wouldn't hire a plastic surgeon for their personality, and this one was supposed to be a "perfectionist," but the way he judged me the entire time, and pretty much made me feel incredibly unattractive and stupid made me want to leave his office as fast as possible. I'll have a second opinion this Friday. Hopefully this surgeon will have some respect for the people who are considering hiring him.

Dr. Steinmetz performed bilateral brachioplasty on me some time back. The results were horrific! I…read morewill upload photos as soon as I get my laptop back in service to prove that claim. He was paid thousands. He removed one (1) pound, by his report. I paid him extra to perform liposuction on my back, but my husband complained there was no difference. My left arm had only a long, long scar to show for the surgery. My right arm had a large divot out of the upper portion. I guess that is where the one (1) pound was removed. Also, his office manager, He, collected for the hospital Bill, which she said they paid. BUT, the hospital billed Medicare and was paid by Medicare!!! Dr. Steinmetz has refused to give me a refund. Other doctors have seen the work he did and said he "didn't know what he was doing" (the cosmetic surgeon I paid $10K to repair Dr. Steinmetz's mess); "should have gladly refunded your money entirely", another cosmetic surgeon; "You should sue him", two of my other personal physicians. I have tried to work this out with Dr Steinmetz to no avail. He took advantage of me. He abused me. What he did amounted to Assault and Battery in my mind. He seems so charming in the office. So does his office manager. He tries to say he offered to "fix" his botched job, but what he offered me was an in-office, local anesthetic, procedure which could not possibly have corrected my arms and back without almost killing me. I am a retired surgical RN so I know what I am talking about!!!

Horrible degrading Dr who blamed me for one surgery turning into 4 surgeries. He wasn't qualified…read morefor the reconstruction I needed. Yet he continued to perform surgeries on me, ruining my body, scaring me physically & emotionally forever. Please don't let this happen to you. God Bless honest surgeons, Dr. Johnson will answer to a higher power in time. He isn't the Dr you should use, you deserve better than what he left me with.

Having been on the receiving end of ear, nose and throat issues throughout my life, I've seen my…read morefair share of doctors. I've yet to find better than Dr. Poynor. He diagnosed my weird allergies and gave me allergy shots to alleviate them through college. Then, when I had chronic tonsillitis sophomore year of college, he performed the surgery to remove my tonsils and adenoids. (Note to self- get tonsils out as a small child, this is NOT easy to recover from as an adult!) Every time I go to see Dr. Poynor, I'm met with equal parts dry humor, adept intelligence, and art knowledge. Yes, I did say ART in relation to an ENT specialist. You see, part of the allure of Dr. Poynor is his love of the arts- he is an avid collector and an advocate for the Birmingham Museum of Art. So, when I'm feeling gross and sick, I know he'll make me smile and provide some fantastic tidbit about where to go the next time I'm in London or what exhibit has just been added to the Birmingham collection. Dr. Poynor is probably best known for his solution to infections in his patients: yes, you walk out the door with an antibiotic Rx, but the secret is the two shots you get before you leave. An injection of antibiotics gets to work immediately, and a small amount of a steroid helps the body move past illness quickly. Not the most pleasant thing, being jabbed, but I always know that I'll get better faster. Even when I've lived out of town, or out of the country, Dr. Poynor has always been on my speed dial in case of ear, nose, or throat related illness/issues because he does an amazing job and always makes me feel better. (The lollipops on the way out don't hurt either)... Five stars for Dr. Poynor!

Dermatology Associates scheduled my appointment for January 19 at 3 PM. They sent me a text to…read moreactually confirm that I would be arriving to my appointment. I actually responded yes to confirm my appointment. I travel an hour to get to my appointment and nobody is at the office. I call to find out what is happening and the answering service tells me that the office closes at noon. Why would they schedule me an appointment at 3 PM when the office closes at noon. Apparently the doctor that I was scheduled to see no longer works at the office so instead of calling me and telling me that I need to reschedule this office let me travel one hour to show up to nobody there. They call me this morning and say "oh it looks like you missed your appointment. Do you want to reschedule?". No apology or nothing for the time lost of traveling there for an hour and traveling home for an hour. Definitely not going to this dermatologist ever again.

A month later, I received a bill from them for an additional $355.84. What for? I was told that after the surgery, Dr. Appell submitted additional work performed during the surgery to my insurance company. I was never told that the surgery would incur additional payment, and in fact, Dr. Appell told me the surgery went as expected. She's a good doctor, but her business practices are shady. Do yourself a favor and find another doctor.
