Warning: Do not go to this facility unless you are prepared for the possibility that a medical…read morecomplication may not be handled appropriately by the provider. I was a patient here and underwent a surgical procedure that caused me significant pain immediately afterward. Even after a full year of repeatedly reporting my pain, discomfort, and a terrible aesthetic result--including a visible bulge in my abdomen--I was consistently dismissed. I was told everything was "fine" and that there was nothing wrong. I was the one who had to push for an ultrasound, which ultimately led to a misdiagnosis and the conclusion that nothing could be done. A year and a half later, my suffering had not stopped, so I sought second opinions from other providers. Both of them immediately recognized the diagnosis. It is, unfortunately, a known and relatively common complication of the type of surgery I had. The fact that my original doctor never acknowledged this possibility was deeply concerning. This experience has caused significant psychological stress, ongoing physical pain, missed work, and additional medical procedures. I have now had to take more time off to undergo corrective surgery, I am left with a permanent scar that would never have existed otherwise, and I have spent thousands of dollars out of pocket to repair the damage with a different doctor. What is most upsetting is that I did go back to the original provider, explained the correct diagnosis, and requested a refund based on what happened. I was told that I had received a "beautiful result," despite the clear physical deformity and the painful complication that had been overlooked for over a year. My concerns were dismissed, minimized, and ultimately ignored. At this point, I have no choice but to warn others about how complications may be handled here if something goes wrong with your procedure. I am also now forced to pursue board complaints and legal action, which is something I never wanted to do. I genuinely tried to resolve this directly. No response they leave on this review will change how this situation was handled.

His approach is truly different and customized to your unique biomarkers and lifestyle, not a one size fits all plan. Through this program, my biomarkers have shifted to reflect someone in their late 20s, even though I'm in my late 30s. The results have been remarkable. I've lost weight, my anxiety has decreased significantly, and my sleep quality has improved in ways I didn't think were possible. My skin feels tighter, clearer, and I've noticed a youthful glow returning. Dr. Tang takes the time to educate and guide you through each step, you truly understand what's happening with your body. He has a true talent in connecting with people, adapting treatments so you can live your life and still see results. His compassion and expertise make him a true gem for the clients he serves. I highly recommend Dr. Tang and his age reversal program to anyone serious about restoring health and vitality from the inside out. I can't thank him enough. Tang, you're the best!!!

I understand he specializes in hands and wrists but I'm very happy to have had him as my nose surgeon. My son was able to get an appointment with his office within a day after being released from the hospital. He assessed the break and said he could perform surgery (mainly moving the nose back into piace) and then applying a "cast" for a week. He did that and removed the cast today. Although it's still tender, my "nose job" is done and together with nose exercises five times a day hope it stays this way, I'm good to go. No more trips/falls for me. Dr. Laksman is very professional and knowledgeable and his staff friendly and courteous. I'd give him Ten stars if I could even though five stars is max!

I am so in love with my body and the confidence that came with it is unmatched!! I truly believe my recovery was so fast because of how the team preps you pre-op and post-op. My incisions are so clean and discreet, and everything looks and feels perfect! I am 3 months post op from a mommy makeover (360 lipo, tummy tuck with muscle repair, breast lift, and rib remodeling) after 2 kids and losing over 90lbs! My waist went from 39 inches pre-op to almost 31 inches post-op with the rib remodeling and gave me a very nice and natural shape! The whole staff is amazing but a VERY special shoutout to Dr. Perez, Megan, Donna, and Andrea. Now for my story! I thought weight loss would solve all my problems. But after major weight loss came all the loose skin! I couldn't see any of my hard work and would have heartbreaking insecurities every time I had to wear anything other than leggings and a big shirt. So I started browsing for the right doctor. After going to 2 different doctors, I had given up. The way I felt like just another paying client without them truly hearing me was just not okay with me. After all, I am investing into something major and I needed to feel that it would be worth it. THEN!! I stumbled across Dr. Perez and his work being featured on Athenix. His work was BEAUTIFUL and so natural. I was in contact right away and for some reason, I didn't feel like I was being pushed. I felt very calm. So I went in. Megan is the coordinator and was the first face I saw. MY GORGEOUS MEGAN! She just let me ramble on and listened to everything I had to say. And I started getting emotional and she sat there with me and comforted me. And reassured me that I DESERVE this. Megan also played a huge role over many changes and adjustments I had to make, including rescheduling my surgery by another 6 months due to personal reasons. And she never once made me feel like a burden. Always spoke to me with warmth and kindness, and made sure I was good before anything. Then I met Dr. Perez. This is someone who takes GREAT pride in his work and puts his WHOLE HEART into each and every one of his patients. He is kind, patient, soft, and LISTENS to you. He genuinely cares about how you feel and listens to all your concerns. He also lets you know when a procedure is unnecessary and wants you to feel comfortable about any decision you make. I just don't have enough words to explain how he makes you feel before, during, and after. This is someone you would want to put all your trust into for something so major and life changing! I will forever love him and I'm so proud to always say that he was the doctor I chose to give me back my confidence!! Surgery date came and went, and my post op was in the hands of Donna, the NP. The sweetest person you'll ever meet!! I absolutely adore her and her cute self. She was always cheerful even when I went in moody during recovery or wanted to complain about anything and everything. She listened to all my cranky complaining and would come up with solutions with Dr. Perez right away despite both of them being super busy and I always felt special. I have never once left my appointment with her feeling anything other than happy! She knows how to warm my heart! And shoutout to sweet Andrea, we didn't have too many appointments together but the few times we did, she always made me feel like we've been longtime friends and was always knowledgeable about any questions I had! She was also the one who came out and wheeled me in for my very first post-op and just held my hand (literally!) through it all because I was so scared to undress and see everything for the first time. But overall, I'd do this again and again. And I won't go anywhere else if future procedures ever come up. I hope my experience would answer any doubts you may have. And remember, YOU DESERVE IT ALL!! :)

I had a paid consultation scheduled and arrived on time. After waiting 90 minutes with no update…read morefrom staff I left. The waiting room was full, and other patients had been waiting even longer (over two hours). There was no communication, no timeline, and no attempt to manage expectations. Delays happen, but this was chaotic, and appeared to be systemic overbooking rather than an isolated issue. For a surgical consultation, where attention to detail and patient care should be paramount, this experience was concerning to say the least. I felt I was waiting to be processed, not cared for. I sat there thinking - these are the people that would be responsible for my pre-op care, my surgery, my aftercare, and any complications that may arise during or after my procedure. And they cannot get the most basic function of the operation right. Ultimately, the consultation fee was a small price to avoid a five-figure mistake. Maybe it's ok for filler and Botox. If like me you are making a permanent decision about your body, beware. I won't undergo a scalpel on an assembly line. Hard pass.

He is not the type of doctor who will make your nose look like you had a nose job; he is more on the natural side, so if your looking for a natural procedure, he is the one for you!! He provided everything that was wrong and what he would do in ways where my family and I would understand. Going into the consultation, he was so caring and educated us in so many ways! He first asked what was wrong; if i had any issues breathing or if i had any trauma on my nose, then asked what I would like to have the end result be. Before visiting him, we visited other doctors and they told us they do their surgery in their office.. when my family brought this up to Dr. Panossian, he assured us that that will not be the case, and that I will be in safe hands in the surgery center. He is extremely caring and it is obvious he cares and for all his patients! Dr. Panossian corrected my breathing issues, fixed the trauma I had on my nose, as well as fixing my dorsal bump, lifting the tip, as well as cutting skin off the tip to make it look even more petite in the most natural way possible! The day of surgery, he came in with a smile on his face although it is a bit nerve wrenching for everyone. Now that I am about 2.5 years post-op, he heard and saw my vision and made my dream nose since i was 15 years old come true. Friends, family, and colleagues always mention how natural my nose looks! The overall communication between him and his staff was great and I would recommend him to everyone!

I consulted this surgeon for lipedema treatment in…read moremy lower legs and was told my calves could not be treated -- only my ankles and inner knees. On the day of surgery, the surgeon suddenly asked if I wanted to add my calves, which completely contradicted the consultation. I was already anxious and felt flustered by this last-minute change. When I asked the manager, she strongly advised against it, saying it would be far too painful with local anesthesia. After surgery, I was told that maybe they should have treated the calves because they didn't actually know if it would have been tolerable. That was incredibly frustrating to hear. I paid $12,000 and am now left with untreated calf lipedema and unevenness from the surgery. I now have to spend more money with another surgeon to correct what should have been handled properly the first time. The lack of consistency and clear guidance was unacceptable.

Since then I was very self-conscious about them because they looked awful. I tried creams, tea bags, cold water compresses, etc. and nothing worked so I made a goal to have lower blepharoplasty done before the end of this year. Around August 2025, I was referred to a plastic surgeon by a friend. The doctor was reluctant to perform surgery on me for a couple of different reasons which I won't go into great detail. So without knowing anyone else, I found Dr. Wang and another Asian doctor via the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Since I am Asian, I was specifically looking for Asian doctors who had experience with this surgery on Asian males. I looked at his website, searched for any medical malpractice cases, lawsuits, was he board certified, etc. then scheduled an initial visit. Including Dr. Wang, I purposely visited with three doctor's for this surgery. During the visit with Dr. Wang, I asked about his facilities, the pre-op and post-op steps, aftercare support and follow-ups, shared with him my concerns (stemming from the visit with the first doctor), and a variety of additional questions. In fact, before the actual surgery date, I had two additional visits with him to talk over the initial concerns I had. Incidentally, there was no charge for these visits. Dr. Wang spent plenty of time with me during all three pre-op meetings and saw me pretty quickly meaning, once I stepped into the office for my appointment, I was seen by him in less than fifteen minutes. The surgery went smoothly and I'm very happy with the outcome. I've had four follow-up visits with him with a fifth one scheduled for February 2027. The office staff is terrific and helpful, especially Michelle Y. The facility is very nice, there's plenty of parking, and overall, a positive experience.

I'm so glad that I went to him because I researched other plastic surgeons and I had such a great rapport with dr. Wang compared to other doctors. And another reason why I chose him was the cost of the procedure was cheaper compared to the plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills. I didn't want to pay a higher price just cuz the doctor is in Beverly Hills. I live further away from Beverly Hills so Pasadena was the better option. Even tho the procedure was done at his Santa Ana location, I am still so happy with the results. And to this day I still have follow up appts with him in Pasadena even tho I had my surgery almost two years ago. Please consider him for any major elective surgery

The results are perfectly subtle and make me feel my face is much more balanced without being overly noticeable and dramatic. They did a great job. If I ever need any similar procedures, I'll definitely come back to their office again.
