As it's said if I could give it 0 stars... my first Yelp review ever- but 100% be warned. Watch…read moreout for this place. Shady pricing, "specials" are not specials, they will find a way to say you need something else for it to look "right". Dr. Lim says one thing and then Jazmin writes up it up at a much higher price. Then says "that's not in Dr. Lim's purview" when you question and say that it wasn't what was discussed. Jazmin also denies pricing she verbally gave me. Like I would make it up. Also watch out if you want a birthmark removed. They got my daughter too. 10 minutes of Dr. Lim's time- $250 to tell her she didn't have the laser needed and to go to Stanford Dermatology. Didn't ask her if she'd like any other services, just goodbye and no prorated fee, deposit can't be transferred to something else because it wasn't part of the consultation. The main thing here is how do you want to be known Dr Lim and Dr. Lamara? For every person actually leaving a review about shady practices there are so many more experiencing it as well.

Truth. Dr. Sunde is sneaky in his application of Botox. I realized this the last 2 times I had…read moreBotox between the brows (11's) he put an inordinate amount above my right eye.

The results were excellent, and Dr. Sunde is a wonderful individual that I am sure you will feel 100% confident in.

He absolutely refuses to do anything to help clear up the situation in which should have never wielded its head in the first place. Note: The FAA requests that all communication be forwarded through your AME (Aviation Medical Examiner) His office does not answer messages or answer/return e-mails unless you call the new patient number. This alone should tell you about his services.... If you are a pilot GO elsewhere, if any issue were to arise you are on your own to solve it. Avoid the Man's services at all cost.

I got rhinoplasty here a couple years ago. The staff was extremely friendly but the doctor not so…read moremuch. He's the type of doctor to do what he wants.. not what you want. He took the hump off of my side profile but if I turn a little bit you can still see that he left a bump on both sides of my nose. It's like he only focused on one angle but forgot every other angle. I brought this up to him during my follow up and he told me to "calm down it will go away" he also said it was "normal" for tissue to come back. But this wasn't regrowth... from the beginning it was clear that there was leftover bumps on both sides. Im not sure why he kept disregarding my concerns but it was clear he didn't care about me as a patient. He wanted to charge me for the whole procedure again to fix it so I decided not to continue with his practice. 3 years after my surgery and I still have the bump on both sides of my nose. The day of my appointment when the nurses were getting me ready they were arguing right infront of me! I was scheduled as the second surgery of the day but then last minute they switched me to the first surgery. Everything seemed so rushed and maybe that's why the doctor forgot to pay attention to detail when it came to my surgery. Maybe he's good with other procedures but I wouldn't recommend coming here for rhinoplasty. He will disregard any end goal you want and override with his own idea. The front view is also crooked and off to the side like coralines nose. Will get redone at another office unfortunately I wasted my money with him.

I reviewed many Botox treatment centers in the Monterey area. I chose David Morewood…read more Unfortunately, it was a big mistake. Dr. Morewood has a wonderful staff of professional women. Dr. Morewood has a great inviting personality. In the end, it was all smoke and mirrors. I received a botox treatment. There was zero improvement over days, weeks, and months of having received the treatment. The cost was 750.00. I contacted the office and received no compassion and no regard for the fact that I received zero improvement. I was reminded that I signed forms that there was no guarantee the process would work. I will give 2 stars for the staff and Dr. morewood hospitality and bedside manner... no stars for my results.

Went to see Dr. Wahlgren for a full body check, which I haven't had in many many years. I was very…read moreimpressed by the thoroughness of her check, as well as the personal interest she showed in my health. She's young, concerned, and really seems to love her work. Skin cancer was confirmed. The only reason I am rating this office a 4 and not a 5 is because I was quite shocked when someone (not Dr. Wahlgren) called me and told me about the basal cell carcinoma. I was so casually informed that it took a few minutes before I realized the call was not good. Not really sure why I was informed in this highly insensitive way, and am just really grateful I wasn't driving when I got the call, as that would have been extremely upsetting. Staff may want to rethink procedure before calling patients with bad news. K Since, I have visited Dr. Hambley, who I really liked. I appreciate the way he thoroughly answered all my questions and concerns. He performed the Mohs surgery today, and I believe it went as well as it possibly could have, so I'm happy & will definitely continue regular checks with Dr. Wahlgren.

I typically don't leave reviews but I've had my second appointment with Catherine Biren and…read more.. 1) Twice they hand me a print out for female pattern baldness(?) 2) On the second visit the doctor tells me I can take my own before and after shots when I requested to see the images they had taken. In context I was stating that my hair-line had receded since the last visit; which I don't recall affirmation of, then I wanted to use their reference images to validate my claim. So either it was dismissive, evasive, or both. 3) Dr Biren informed me that finasteride is not FDA approved and treated as "under the table." The implication; IIRC, being that its not really prescribed or approved to address male pattern baldness. Much like how Minoxidil was originally prescribed for high blood pressure - The assertion (or implication?) is that even today these drugs are prescribed "under the table" as they are not intended to address balding at all. I took her word at the time but quick research shows that Finasteride has been FDA approved for male pattern baldness since the 90s. 4) While they brought up potential blood pressure monitoring; as they prescribed Oral Monoxidil in the prior visit, they both did not follow up and seemed to have misplaced the tools needed for blood pressure measurement? I even expressed excitement over getting my blood pressure readings at the time. I was recommended by a Monterey Primary care doctor who did not know what Finasteride was at all. Stated it was another name for Minoxidil. Then recommended this Dermatologist once it became evident that assertion was false. Is this a thing with Monterey doctors? I have already spent hundreds of dollars and been delayed for almost a year (IE Primary doctor - Dermatologist initial - Dermatologist follow up). My initial goal was to; basically, get a prescription for Finasteride and have my health indicators monitored for negative side-effects. Instead I'm told Finasteride == Monoxidil and that Finasteride is not FDA approved. I really don't know what to make of that. Incredibly frustrating. The general attitude I sensed from my visits was; basically, that I should just accept that I am balding. I can respect that sentiment to an extent but then why prescribe Minoxidil and schedule a follow-up? I can see myself being dissuaded from using Finasteride but I do not believe it is acceptable to do so under false basis.

She…read morefell on the school playground and had a deep cut on the outside of her face that extended to the inside of her mouth. I took her to the CHOMP ER and kindly requested a plastic surgeon to stitch her up. We were so lucky that Dr. Goldberg happened to be there at the same time and was willing to help my daughter. He has an excellent bedside manner with kids (and parents!). My daughter was scared at first, but his demeanor relaxed her. He numbed her face and stitched her up, all while being kind and warm. He took a scary situation and made it look like a piece of cake. I am beyond grateful for him. Now almost a year later and my daughter's face looks great!

I recently had to have 2 unexpected biopsies done on my face. Dr. Goldberg went above and beyond to accommodate the scheduling of this appointment to coincide with another medical appointment ( only 2 days later) which required me to discontinue a medicine 5 days prior to the procedure. His kindness to accommodate me like this, kept me from having to discontinue this important medication for another 5 days at a different time. Now that's what I say is a Dr. who goes above and beyond to care for for his patients! That is the exactly the type of Dr. I want to see, and recommend to my family and friends. Thank you Dr. Goldberg and staff. Mimi Gebert

I got a dental block and kiss filler and everything heeled and looked wonderful. I wanted another syringe and belle moved so I made arrangements with doctor lipman. I asked for a dental block and something went wrong. The next morning I was still numb and they kept telling me that it's normal. Well an additional day went by and I was still numb. Here we are a month later and my face is still numb and I can't make a proper kissy face and my lip goes to the side when I rub them together. I was told I had an allergic reaction which seems not right to me seeing as I had the same filler and dental block the second time and had no reaction the first time. The follow up has been awful too. I felt as if I was treated like another transaction. I just want to warn anyone who chooses to get filler because everything I've been going through has been really scary and the office is making me feel like they're not concerned at all. I think anyone else who can't feed there lips after a month would also be concerned and scared!
