When visiting dermatologists in the past, I would often spend more time with the nurse than the actual doctor. Dr. Edwards entered the room, sat and listened to my acne life story from beginning to end. Her genuine concern and determination to provide a lasting solution was so comforting. The initial regimen she subscribed didn't provide the results she was satisfied with, so on the next few visits she tweaked the regimen until she was satisfied with the results. But the visits weren't all about her satisfaction! Dr. Edwards informed me that she was quite the perfectionist and told me to slow her down or say pause if it seemed like she was seeking perfection beyond my comfort zone. As months went by, my face totally cleared up. I've suffered with acne off and on since I was 15 years old and my face has NEVER looked this good. I've had a clear face before, but there would always be bumps under the surface. My complexion is as close to flawless as I've ever experienced. In my first visit, I was almost in tears due to the severity of my acne. I would cry myself to sleep each night and didn't want to leave the house during the day. My most recent visit to Dr. Edwards left both of us hugging each other and feeling relieved at how much my life had changed as a result of her efforts to clear my skin. I will pay any amount of money to continue seeing Dr. Edwards.

    I am over a year out from multiple procedures with Dr. Michaels -- including a lower body lift, arm…read morelift, breast lift with fat transfer, thigh lift, and upper back lift -- and I could not be happier with the results. I traveled from North Carolina to work with Dr. Michaels because I knew long before my consultation that he was the surgeon I wanted to trust with my transformation. The wait to see him was absolutely worth it. The level of skill and artistry Dr. Michaels brought to my surgeries has completely changed my confidence, comfort, and quality of life. After losing over 200 lbs, I can now wear clothes I never imagined, move more freely, and finally feel at home in my body. My scars are healing beautifully -- the work is stunning -- and I am proud of them because they are truly beautiful. My overall shape feels natural, balanced, and strong, and I am proud of the transformation. If you're looking for a surgeon who combines technical excellence with genuine care, I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Michaels.

When I'm in the mood to chat she's so personable and sweet. When I'm in the mood for quiet and zen, she accommodates me. It's so lovely. My skin has improved remarkably since I started seeing her. I can't recommend getting all your skincare needs taken care of at Dr. Michaels office.

    Worst bedside manor I have ever experienced as a doctor. I had to get a mastectomy and chose to do…read morereconstruction hoping to remain looking like myself and nothing more. I told her many times that I did not want to be bigger than I was. Once it was finished and I was at my post-op she said "I had hoped to make you bigger but it wasnt safe" which shows she didnt listen to me at all and I am indeed bigger than I wanted. I have young children including a baby and work at a daycare and she had to advice about how to help prevent damage or injury with little ones. Luckily I had a nurse who was able to help with suggesting protective pillows, etc. As I mentioned I told her each time I had a baby. The whole time I was told no lifting more than 10 pounds for 6 weeks. I planned for 6 weeks to have help from family and friends. At my post-op at 6 weeks she said everything looked good. I said "Ok so I can lift my 25 lb baby now" She said no, you want to wait 3 more months to lift that much weight. I said "Thats something you should've told me before." She rudely replied "Would that have changed anything?" YESSSS I wouldnt have done this part of it! Luckily I have had 4 cousins who have gone through reconstruction (with different doctors) and each of their doctors said 4-6 weeks and then they could lift their children, babies, costco groceries, etc. No one ever said 3 months, she is just afraid of being sued. Not to mention, one of my breasts is dented a bit. Would NOT recommend.

    Dr. Fayazi is the best plastic surgeon I know. I needed breast reconstruction after a mastectomy…read moreand saw her for a second opinion. Unlike the first plastic surgeon I had, she listened to everything I said, validated my pain and paid great attention to details. She even came to her office on a Sunday just to see me so I would not end up at a hospital. It is very difficult to find a compassionate surgeon and I was lucky to find her! I hope I will not need plastic surgery in the future, but if it happens, she is the only choice for me.

    After 2 years of doing research for a reliable and respectful cosmetic surgeon to perform a lower…read moreblehp procedure, I decided to proceed with CSA and Dr. Magge. Based on photos of his prior patients, I found his work to be exactly what I was looking for and after our in-person meeting, I did feel comfortable to proceed. I had the procedure done in the beginning of October, the recovery process was much more intense than I had thought. A week after my procedure, I had a follow-up check up, after waking up at 4:00am and driving 3 hours, Dr. Magge did not meet with me, his assistant did. Had I known that would be the case, I would have done a video conference call. She said everything looked fine. After 3 weeks, I still had severe bruising and was swollen. I also noticed one of my eyes were droopy and it was the opposite eye of my eye that actually did droop all of my life. I called the office to ask if the healing process was normal and they said it was. When I mentioned it to the assistant, she had mentioned a "push-up" method but said Dr. Magge would let me know if I should try and he never did. Also, there is a scar of when he did the procedure, not on my eyelid but underneath. I have been using scar medication every day for 2 months to try and make it less visible. The scars are not horrible but def. noticeable. It's a 'light' noticable line scarring under the eyes. They were supposed to reach out after 3 months to see if extra fat graphing was needed or any revisions and have yet to hear back. They never reached out to see if i was okay or even satisfied w/ the work done AFTER I was fully healed. My eyelid healed with a funny shape. The pinch method only seem to work on one eye hence the drooping lower eyelid. I feel I need to wear eyelash extensions all the time so my eyes look even. I do believe in the future I will need a revision. I am disappointed, I had hoped this practice would have been what I had needed to assist with this issue that had bothered me for so long. I wished they had been more comforting and had followed-up. Unfortunately I do not recommend this practice for eyelid procedures. However Megan Love is awesome! She was super sweet, comforting and sincere.

    Hello Dr. Tsion I…read morehonestly do not know why I waited this long to properly express my deepest appreciation to you and your entire team. From the very beginning of this journey you and your staff have shown me a level of kindness compassion humanity and professionalism that I will never forget. To be honest it never feels like I am walking into a medical office surrounded by staff members doing their jobs. Instead it feels like I am being welcomed by a close and caring family. The warmth patience and genuine care that each one of you shows creates an environment that brings comfort even during painful and vulnerable moments. I truly want you to know how grateful I am for everything you have done for me. So far I am very happy with my recovery and overall experience. Even the pain has been mostly manageable and hearing from Lydia that my recovery is progressing beautifully made me feel incredibly relieved and thankful. Please let her know how much I appreciate her kindness and support as well. What touched my heart the most is the way you treated me not simply as another patient but as a human being deserving of care dignity reassurance and compassion. In moments when people feel physically and emotionally vulnerable kindness becomes unforgettable and that is exactly what your team gave me. You all made me feel safe cared for respected and genuinely valued. I truly mean this from my heart when I say that you have become like family to me. One day when I am fully recovered I am planning to come back with kitfo and kocho to celebrate and thank everyone properly. That thought genuinely makes me happy because I already feel such a meaningful connection with all of you. And I also want to say this with a smile I promised before that it was not the medication talking and I still mean every single word. My gratitude is sincere heartfelt and lasting. I absolutely plan to keep in touch because people like you are rare and the kindness you give leaves a permanent mark on people's lives. Thank you again Dr. Tsion Lydia and the entire team for your extraordinary care your humanity and the love you show through your work every day. May God continue to bless all of you your families your careers and the lives you touch so beautifully. With heartfelt gratitude and appreciation Yodit

    Dr. Friedman is an arrogant hack. he did a tummy tuck scar "revision" . It was a minor fix …read more He announced a doctor (not a plastic surgeon ) would begin the surgery while he finished a case. I refused. As I began to get dressed , he quickly agreed to do it himself. I awoke to a jagged scar which obviously was not the work of a plastic surgeon or Friedman did it in haste juggling 2 surgeries in tandem. He did lipo on the wrong side of my abdomen . Dr Friedman told me to come back and have a thermage treatment and charged me. It did nothing. Dr Friedman accepted no responsibility.The drainage hole was a hack job.He refused to put a stitch in it. When I went for my post op he removed the tube and refused to repair the jagged hole.I have an unnecessarily visible scar that could have been closed properly. His nurse shook her head when he left the room and concurred that he is arrogant. Dr Friedman you leave the future world a better place. You are a hack. I wish you had done it long ago . I can only imagine the hoards of people you have left in your wake of substandard work and substandard attitude.

    Dear Dr. Roger Friedman…read more I want to send you this email that just let you know I am a very unhappy patient. I don't know what is other way to descript myself since the beginning after the procedure unfortunately. As a plastic surgeon you are you should know clearly what a patient needs and/or wants and what and how you can do to have at least an acceptable result at the end of the surgery even I was willing to come back to have you to correct the problems but nothing changes. I have never seen that ugly look on my body in my adulthood. If you will look at my file and pictures before and after, you can tell more. When I first came for a consultation, you told me how nice it would be and also told me if I wouldn't like the result you would help me to do till I would be happy. You gained my trust and now all that became disappointed and I have to live with it for the rest my life. You understand how important it is to females in general, BEAUTY is everything and I am one of them. Second, you told me nothing you could do more to help me to the way we were first discussed it, just let me go in a way you don't care. Not only you lost my trust but also irresponsible plastic surgeon. I wasted my time, cost, and the trust I have in you. I have to see my body every day like this. Do you think OK?
