The front desk staff were fairly nice, I was greeted with smiles. When I was placed in a room, still greeted with smiling, friendly faces. The doctor then came in to introduce himself and I felt a sense of comfort. He explained everything to me about the procedure I'm considering and then allowed time for me to ask questions. Every question was answered with a sincere smile. Everything about the office was warm and inviting, it was very clean and somewhat upscale. The exam rooms are a sufficient in size and warm. Needless to say, I was very satisfied with my initial consult. I would definitely recommend this doctor. If I decide to have the procedure, I will update.

That person had to take the day off, arrange for coverage, rearrange a tight schedule to meet after much research. Go from building to building to even find this place.

An hour drive each way and miss another appointment is ridiculous. Unorganized. No thanks.

I am a physician from South Florida who flew to Birmingham, Alabama just so I could visit Dr…read moreWilliam Hedden at the Hedden Plastic Surgery Center and have the "miraDry" procedure performed on myself, as quite honestly, I sweat profusely and after I heard him lecture on this topic at a medical conference, I wanted to have this procedure performed on myself to stop my underarm sweat and odor. As every physician knows, doctors make the worst patients, and I was on my best behavior to avoid being one of those patients that every doctor hates to see when they walk into the treatment room. So, after a flight to Birmingham and a night at the Grand Bohemian Hotel Mountain Brook, I took an Uber to the Hedden Plastic Surgery Center and was the first patient of the day. Upon arrival, the office and surgical suite was stunningly beautiful and modern that could rival any medical office in the country. I was greeted by a friendly staff, and completed my paperwork on one of their computers. I was taken into an examination room, given a full informed consent and explanation of the miraDry procedure. Truth be told, I already did some research before hand via one of his nurses and was well prepared to have the procedure performed. I had the pleasure to have Wynn work on me and she was an outstanding medical nurse that has performed the miraDry procedure many times. After a local anesthesia that I barley felt, the miraDry procedure is like a handheld wand that uses miraWave energy that targets and destroys sweat and odor glands in your underarm. Once those glands are destroyed they do not grow back so that means once they are gone, they are gone for good. The entire procedure took about 45 minuted each side and I had pretty much zero pain and took a Uber to the airport to travel home. The only challenge was trying to keep the ice packs under each armpit and travel on a plane, so if I had to do it again, I would have spend another night in Alabama and leave the next day. So there you go, I had the miraDry procedure performed on myself and now I get to write a Yelp review about an embarrassing medical condition I have (well technically I am cured now so the correct word is "had" and I am glad I did it). The day after and next few days after the procedure were not bad at all, other than some significant swelling in my underarms that made me look like I was at the gym, and there was some mild redness. I really had no pain, no complications, and would 100% recommend this procedure and Dr Hedden to anyone that has excessive underarm sweating or odor. I am sure that there are other doctors and medical centers that offer this procedure, but I decided to go to Dr Hedden as I felt he was a world class expert in this procedure and after hearing him lecture and spend some time in his office, I am super happy I traveled to see him and his staff --- he deserves my 5 star rating on Yelp.

I was deciding between two plastic surgeons to do a double breast reconstruction from a fire 26 years ago. I had skin graphs after the fire, and then a reconstruction the year after. But I never have had normal looking breasts since the fire. I went to the original reconstructive surgeon from 26 years back, who gave me a new quote for the reconstruction surgery which was high, and he also said I would need another surgery after that one. Neither would be covered by insurance and for two breast surgeries I would be paying well over twenty grand. Even though money was an issue, I also didn't want to use someone who was cheap just because I couldn't afford it. I went to see Dr. Beckenstein to get a second opinion after researching and finding how much reconstructive breast work with women with breast cancer he performs. The vibe in his office was so warm and loving, not like the cold and sterile environment of the other plastic surgery office. I met with him, and found him to listen, to be to the point, and to have new ideas. He came up with a different treatment plan involving one surgery, retaining and grafting my nipples, and was able to get insurance to cover the mastopexy. It was a miraculous day when that happened. But if insurance had denied it, it would have been 1/2 the price for out of pocket pay for reconstructive surgery as the other physician, and would not require a second surgery. He would graft my nipples during surgery, and we would use one of his four tattoo artists on staff to perfect it down the line. When I asked the other physician how we would do tattooing, he was very unconcerned and just said, "We will figure that out later." Well, the main reason I wanted this surgery was to have nipples and areolas that looked like what they were supposed to be. One surgeon had four people on staff trained to create that illusion, while the other said we would figure it out later. I had the surgery last week, and the work he performed was nothing short of a miracle. The staff has been so helpful, and they make sure you have every key person at the office's contact info for questions during the pre and post op process. He called us back over the weekend when we had a question, and has been such a blessing. I would recommend anyone who is interested in a procedure to go see him. Not only is he an expert in the field, his prices are very fair, his staff is top notch, and his surgical hand is amazing. Thank you Dr. Beckenstein.

Sure, he may be a bit more pricy, but who cares!?!? It's your face! They have a forever client in me.

She is very good at what she does and has the sweetest way with kids. She always remembers us and we chat like old friends when we see her. We've seen Dr. Glick just once, but she was very professional too. The staff have been helpful and courteous. We had some issues when our insurance didn't want to cover one medication but the staff worked it out for me by submitting a prior authorization form (my prescription insurance can be difficult to work with so I appreciate the way they handled it). I've been so many times that I can't give an actual number and we are usually called back to see the doctor after waiting from 0-15 minutes past the appointment time. I think most doctors' offices are like that. Once, we had to wait an hour, but that has never happened again (I guess everyone has a bad day). When you go, wear a sweater (even in the summer) because the waiting room is really cold! I'd recommend Dr. Groysman and her staff to anyone who needs a caring and thorough dermatologist.

The five-star reviews on their site MUST be AI-generated--…read more When I called to schedule my facial appointment, the front desk associate informed me that she needed my date of birth and a few other details to complete the new patient forms. No problem--I gave her the information. I was then instructed to complete additional forms through the Klara site/app and was told I could log in using my email and a temporary password (my DOB). I tried that... and couldn't get in. So I called back. I explained that I was having trouble logging in, only to be told--repeatedly--that I had given the wrong date of birth. Not once. Not twice. But five different times, across five separate calls and email exchanges. She continued to insist that I didn't know my own birthday. Seriously? Look, everyone has off days--Lord knows I do--and while it was frustrating, I decided to let it go and move forward with the appointment. When I told her what treatment I wanted, she said it would need to be discussed with the doctor or estheticians. A little annoying, but I figured that was policy and scheduled the appointment with the understanding that I'd at least have a consultation to determine the best treatment. Fast forward to my appointment: Everyone I interacted with was either rude or completely uninterested--the kind of attitude people give when they clearly don't want to help. Still, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and stayed. Then I was taken to the back, where the provider had no idea why I was there. I explained (again) what treatment I was interested in, my concerns, my goals, etc.--only to be told, "I'm not sure what to do... maybe we could do 'X' just so something happens today," or "You can buy something from our store. It's totally up to you." Wait, what? I tried to self-diagnose and was informed that I needed this appointment so "we" could discuss treatments. Not spend money randomly at the store like some kid heading to school store for the first time or play the game guess a treatment. I could've just stayed home! Needless to say, I won't be returning. And yes, I will be trying to get my $50 deposit back--on principle.

I take negative reviews seriously so I leave this review with heartbreak. This African American man was initially a breath of fresh air just to see a person looking like me in a field that I needed help. I prematurely rejoiced. I was met with a very arrogant Dr. on my return visit. I questioned him on my results hoping to tailor my treatment and his whole attitude changed. He basically let me know in his responses and body language that he did not like being questioned. I receive a cysts dissolving shot I was told. I did not approve of this because this is for a cyst that I could neither see or feel, and when I refused to pay additional for this I was told don't worry about it but later billed me. I patronized this man two other times prior to this and to my surprise when I had an issue was treated terribly. It still to this day hurts to remember. Hopefully no one else has to go through this. Be safe.
