Deflated Dame After…read morenearly 20 years with my implants, I suddenly found myself dealing with one deflating. It didn't hurt, but it definitely didn't feel right--and I knew deep down I probably should've replaced them years ago. My previous doctor had sadly passed away, so starting over and finding someone new felt overwhelming. After doing a lot of research, my husband and I decided to give this office a try--and I'm so glad we did. They were able to get me in quickly for a consultation in the Temecula office, which immediately put me at ease given my situation. From the moment I met Dr. You, I felt comfortable. She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to explain all my options in detail. Since it had been almost two decades since my original procedure, I had plenty of questions--and she answered every one of them thoroughly. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and professional. The office itself was clean and inviting, and I never felt like just another patient. Because of my situation, they were able to schedule my surgery quickly, which I really appreciated. What stood out most was the level of care throughout the entire process. Dr. You personally called me the night after surgery to check in, and the follow-up visit the next day was just as reassuring. Months later, I'm healing beautifully--my results look amazing, and the scarring is minimal to almost nonexistent. I truly couldn't be happier. I feel like myself again, and I'm beyond grateful for the care, professionalism, and expertise of this entire team. Highly recommend!

Couldn't be happier with the result! A+ from initial consultation to the 1 year checkup!read more

Im so excited to post my post opp photos of my upper eye lift and lower facelift/neck tightening…read morethat was performed October 28, 2020 by the amazingly talented Dr. Gupta!!!! I waited to post them only because it really does take time to settle in and for all of the swelling to fully disappear and I wanted to give credit where credit is due. My total experience at Loma Linda University plastic surgery with Dr. Gupta and staff was nothing less than perfect, I mean every single aspect of it from the initial consultation thru today and I say that because Ive had to delay my second procedure due to illness and also because I wanted to lose some weight before my tummy tuck is performed to achieve the best results possible. September will be here before I know it. Im super excited and nervous only because Im a chicken about being put to sleep Ill be honest lol. Id like to mention that my eyes and face were performed under local and mild sedation, yes I was awake very calm and I felt nothing. My recovery was also painless. The worst part for me was having to wear the neck/head strap for 6 weeks but I did it. Im 58 yrs young and have 6 grown children, so its my time to do me!!! Ill be sure to follow up here after my procedure to share my results. Thanks again to everyone at Dr. Guptas office.

My consultation was extremely thorough and Dr. Kim was completely engaged and generous with his time. After surgery, Dr. Kim was, and continues to be invested in my recovery and available to answer all of my questions. My recovery has been pain free, uneventful and way faster than I anticipated! Georgia, the nurse, is phenomenal. Her knowledge, experience and bedside manner is exactly what everyone needs the day of surgery! She did my Botox at my follow up appointment - and no surprise she excelled here also. I could not be happier with choosing Dr. Kim. He is located 90 minutes away from me, so I had a little hesitation, but it was WELL WORTH the extra drive. I can't wait to go back for phase 2 of my mommy makeover!

I had my breast implants removed and a breast lift with the physician Bennett. She was so nice,…read morepolite, and thorough with so much information before my surgery. After I paid the deposit for my surgery, I should have known not to get my surgeries done with her. She gave me her number just in case I had any questions before and after my surgery. I had a couple of questions before my surgery and she was on it with responding to my text messages or calling me. After my surgery I called the office and it was on a Wednesday or Thursday , when she has surgeries. Nobody told me to call physician Bennett if I had any concerns in the days of her surgery. I called the office because I had a concern in regards to my breasts hurting and to ask her if she could prescribe me another prescription. I figured I had an infection. The person I spoke to at the front told me to call her. I told her I didn't want to out of courtesy because she was having to do surgeries on that day. I asked the person that I spoke at the front desk if she can relate the message to physician Bennett and let her know that I was probably going to need more antibiotic because I thought I had an infection. Physician never called me. I called back like two days after. And that week they didn't have anymore appointments for me to go see her until the following week. I went in the following week and I told one of her employees that I was upset because I never got a call back from the physician. The employee got upset and was telling me that if the girl at the front desk that I originally spoke to said that I should had called the physician like she had told me. I told her that the physician never told me to call her on her days when she was doing surgeries. She also spoke to the girl at the front desk and then she told me that the girl did relate the message to the physician. She then related the message to the physician about my concern on me not getting a call back from the physician before she went in the room to see me. Physician Bennett asked me what my concern were. I mentioned to her that I had called the office for them to give her a message in regards to maybe needing another antibiotic prescription. She told me the message was never related to her and that she would talk to the person at the front desk that helped me. She looked at my breasts and then she said if I thought I had an infection. I was wondering why she was asking me that question, when she's the surgeon. It turned out my right breast was filled with fluid and infected. She squeezed my breasts and then l fr a hole that didn't heal shut for several weeks. My right breasts has a big indent on the bottom where the t is and it looks horrible. The left breast seems like she cut into my muscle and isn't round at the bottom like a normal breast should look. So disappointed with the work she did. I hope anyone that sees my review don't go to her or her office. If you need a breast lift go to a breast specialist that knows what they are doing. I will eventually have to go to a breast specialist so they can fix the horrible work she did. If I could give her a zero star rating I would. She really stinks and doing breast lift surgeries when you get your breasts removed. I wasn't going to give her a rating but now that it's been eight months, I see that my breasts don't look any better than when I first had my surgeries. She shouldn't be doing surgeries. She stinks at it. Please beware of her. She will make you look ugly and regret you ever went to her and gave her your money. Unfortunately, I posted pictures of the poopy job she did and they were deleted off here.

Frustrating and Concerning Experience- Check Your Records! I am incredibly disappointed and…read morefrustrated with my visit. It felt like a complete waste of time and energy. When I reviewed my progress note afterward, I realized it was mostly copied and pasted from over two years ago- nothing from my actual visit was accurately documented. To make matters worse, billing codes were used for services that were never provided. That's unacceptable and, in my understanding, could be considered fraudulent. If you see this physician protect yourself- request copies of your medical records and carefully review your billing. Patients deserve honest, attentive care and accurate documentation, not recycled notes and questionable charges.

I heard the Dr give clear directions to his staff about thr referral. I stood in front off staff waiting for instructions. She stated they will call me. I waited as my conditions got worst. I called today, on hold for over 40 minutes. I was told my referrals got approved 3/19 and I was never informed. T hey advised that I had to call Loma Linda for my hearing and Arrowhead for my URGENT surgery. More than 30 days with increasing hearing loss. Negligence... can't trust this place.

Had to take my mom here to Cal Med for her cataracts surgery…read more She has Kaiser Permanente, and this office was an option to go to. So my moms choice was @ this office in Colton, CA We had to be here at 6 am, but the staff didn't open until 6:12 am. I know only 12 minutes late, but I'm the type of person you ask me to be one time. You should be on time, too! The front staff who was late wasn't the friendliest or welcoming. Then I asked her how long the surgery was going to be... She gave me a firm two hours. That surgery would be @ 7:30 to be back by 9:30am So I went home only to be called less than 30 minutes. That she was done and ready to be picked up. It was awesome that it was done, but I could have just stayed there. If she would have been better with the times. The doctor from Kaiser is amazing and did a wonderful job. The discharge nurse was also super helpful and friendly. Mom is recovering nicely. Overall, they get 3 stars. I'd definitely go with a Kaiser Permanente location instead of here if there's a next time.

I had a tummy tuck through Dr. Childers in 2015. He was extremely helpful. I went in thinking I…read moreonly needed Lipo and was scared when I realized I needed something more invasive than my initial thought. After deciding to go through with the tummy tuck, I was excited and nervous all at the same time. When my surgery date came, the hospital staff was extremely helpful. Dr. Childers was great support when I needed him. His office staff was delightful. Now, 2 years later, I have a 5 month old. My body healed nicely post surgery and since my pregnancy, my body bounced back (no stretch marks, no belly). However, once I'm ready for a lipo touch up and possibly a breast augmentation later this year, I will be returning to Dr. Childers. PS - I've received compliments on my scarring, too, from doctors in Beverly Hills. Just so you know, you don't need to go to LA or anywhere outside of Riverside to get nice results. ;)

Sadly, I wish Dr. Childers and his staff were kinder, more empathetic, and caring. No worries and…read moreno apologies for mistakes or mishaps. Truly, another disappointment when dealing with the folks in the medical field. And after reviewing other reviews as far back as 2021...I see it's been a problem for others previously as well (regarding stitches that weren't removed properly by staff). Ironically, this place was highly recommended, which made this experience even more disappointing. The doctor lacked bedside manners. He claims that he spent a lot of time with the patient, but that's not true and he can go back and check his time stamps, dates on appointments, or CCTV if he has one. On our first consultation appointment, he was kind of offstandish and rude to me as I was trying to inquire about things to expect post op. After he cut me off because he was assuming what I was going to ask, I responded and said that I wasn't going to ask what he assumed I was going to ask. At the next appointment, it was the procedure day, and that took a little more time since it was the day of the procedure. At the final appointment, the post op appointment, we were in the waiting room for about an hour after our scheduled time, which is ok. The stitch removal took about 2-5 mins, and another 2-5 minutes before the doctor came in. He didn't double-check the stitches, but rather just informed us that the skin sent to the lab was not cancerous and reminded us of aftercare, and we left. So, nowhere did he spend a lot of time with us, so that's a lie. Although he spoke with his team, still no accountability or apologies. I don't care to speak with this doctor or the office any further, and none of the reviews will be removed. What's crazier is he keeps responding. Only now that these comments and experiences are made public. But this was not how he was on the phone brushing me off and being dismissive. Would he still be this way if it wasn't public? Seems like he's talking more to the public in third person. I reached out via internet inquiry box from his website. Then contacted the office a few days later. He was not kind on the phone. No one told him to call me while he was mid-surgery. After being dismissive, I decided to leave a review. He actually ONLY reached out after the damage was already done customer service wise. Would he have reached out genuinely otherwise? Absolutely not. Why would I want to further personally interact?
