He's a very direct, no nonsense guy! Dr. Vernose is very experienced and has gifted hands if you require surgery.

I saw Ivy Maina and this was probably the worst doctor visit I've had in some time…read more Should've read the yelp reviews before I booked My issues with my throat barely were addressed and I was interrupted multiple times as I was explaining what was happening to me. At least 3 times I was cut off and told "what is happening with you now?" when I was getting to that point but couldn't finish This doctor also spoke very fast the entire time, to the point that I could not understand hardly anything of what she was saying because she quickly spoke through everything She was also in a rush to put the scope into my nose and was impatient during the visit She also told me nothing clinically meaningful besides saying that the anatomy of my throat looks okay Overall this was a pretty bad visit. I was hoping to get better assistance and my throat is still sore. Now I have to book another appointment with a different specialist This "specialist" was not good. Waste of my money and time unfortunately

I genuinely wish I had listened to the reviews before making this appointment because everything…read morepeople are saying about Dr Ivy Maina is TRUE. I saw the exact same doctor mentioned in these reviews, and I have never felt so dismissed in my life. I will say that the front desk staff were very nice. I actually spoke with the sweetest person who had the most gorgeous silver jewelry and bright pink nails, and she made me feel really welcome. She was lovely. Unfortunately, once I got into the actual appointment, the experience completely changed. I came in trying to explain what has been going on with me because I am genuinely struggling and was hoping to finally get some answers and she made me feel like I was inconveniencing her by being there. I kept trying to tell her my symptoms and felt like I couldn't even get a real in depth response out from her. She was, without a doubt, the most dismissive doctor I have ever dealt with and yes she just wants to stick a scope down your throat. I wasn't even done reading the paper before she was already prepping me to get scoped and absolutely rushed me to sign. I left feeling like absolutely nothing I came in concerned about was actually addressed. I wasn't looking for special treatment or for someone to tell me something was wrong, I just wanted to be LISTENED TO and taken seriously. I walked into that office smiling, genuinely hopeful that I was finally going to get some help, and I left basically bawling my eyes out. The fact that I am reading these reviews afterward and realizing that other people had almost the exact same experience is honestly heartbreaking. I should have listened. If you are going there because you have a serious concern and need someone to actually sit down, listen to you, and explain things, I would strongly recommend looking different Dr then Ivy Maina. The front desk deserves praise because they were kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, the doctor made this one of the most upsetting medical appointments I've ever had.

Well I'm going to start by saying I think reviews are not easy to write. Being an owner of a top…read morerated hair salon in Center City Philadelphia I've seen bad reviews be created because emotions were running high and they weren't able to look at the facts from beginning to end because of emotions being in the way. I was recommended to Dr Lo by a fellow hair stylist who had breast augmentation. Her breasts were gorgeous and she had started from a very small size and after he was finished with her she was on the larger side and looked very natural. So I went in for a consultation because I was starting with basically nothing. I previously had gone to several other surgeons for consultation and it seem like their answer was yes yes yes to everything. But this doctor was different he was direct and told me the truth and sugar-coated nothing and that is exactly why I picked him. When I was so hung up on how big are they going to be his answer was exactly this " when you come back to me in 6 months bitching that they're not big enough I'm going to tell you that it was your anatomy that decided how big they were going to be not me we are only going to do what your body will allow you to do". Finally somebody to tell me the truth. He did finish with saying he would try to go as large as he could. Then explained there was a method that could show him how big they could be while in surgery and was very confident that I would land with a larger C or at least a D. So I scheduled. Of course when I woke up from the anesthesia and other meds I was very foggy but was still able to ask the question.... How big are they? He explained to me that he got the largest implant in there. Then the healing process began. Everything he explained to me has come true for the breast augmentation. I've entrusted him with injectables also. We've used Botox for wrinkles and Voluma for check volume over the past year and I really believe that the his back ground in facial reconstruction makes me really trust him with injectables. My God I've seen nightmares with that stuff. So now the latest procedure that I am still recovering from is the tummy tuck. Today marks the two weeks. So needless to say I'm still a little sore still waiting for swelling to go away and everything else to clear up but already I see and feel a difference. I did other consultations for tummy tuck as well and no other doctor mentioned leaving with a pain pump so the incision could have 3 days to heal and be numb so I would be more comfortable. This was very appealing. The girl who does my eyelash extensions head the same procedure from another doctor and did not have the pain pump and said it was barely tolerable for the few days after... that really let me know that I would be okay after the procedure with Dr Lo. So I will check back and leave more feedback after the tummy settles down. Also on a side note his staff is great they answer questions and really let me know what I needed to do. The doctor called me the night of each surgery and his staff called the following day. Ok...I'm finished gushed.

Many years ago, I went under the knife with Dr Lo and when I woke up, I was given larger breasts…read morethan I asked for because he said "they looked better". For many years, I have hated the size and my body when I look in the mirror. I never wanted larger breasts than I asked for. Dr. Lo is misogynistic and uses patriarchal control over women to get what he wants and to get his after photos to his liking; disregarding a woman's mental health, bodily autonomy and well being. Here I am, and for many years I have not had the money to fix them to how I personally wanted them originally. For myself. I have been in a lot of emotional pain for many years. (As well as a sub muscular tear which made my breast migrate into my armpit. I know the size must have contributed. I have never lifted heavy weights). I wanted to have small breasts all along and I believe I'd look great with them. Dr Lo's opinion of how he thinks a woman's body should look is degrading and speaks volumes about the type of man he is. A woman's voice is SO IMPORTANT when going under the knife, under anesthesia. No matter the shape or size of a woman, we glow most beautifully when we love ourselves in our body, get to have our own independence and be able to think for ourselves. No man should be able to take over you as soon as he puts you out and make MAJOR life altering decisions. Do not trust Dr. Lo with your body, he is just going to do what he wants or what he thinks "looks better" for you. And you might just wake up confused, in pain and unhappy for the next 20 years.
