Dr.Blakkolb is an amazing surgeon and a wonderful human being. She is not only professional and highly skilled in her craft, she also treated me with kindness and compassion during a frightening year of multiple surgeries. I recommend her without hesitation.

Dr. Blakkolb did surgery for my wife and did an absolutely flawless job! Minimal scarring, realistic conversations about expectations, very respectful, with a bedside manner that is off the charts. She was extremely accessible throughout the entire process, and went out of her way to ensure my wife was comfortable with every aspect of the procedure.

Instead of waking up after my breast reduction surgery, I am at home writing a review. Yesterday, that's right, the day before my surgery, I received a call saying that 'Oops, someone made a mistake and your surgery is not covered by insurance....can you call BCBS and talk to them?' Oh and then the person giggled at me. Giggled. I called BCBS and they said that no, they had never said that it would be covered, and had issued a notice to the UT Physicians on April 21. Which is funny because two days after BCBS apparently notified them, they called and demanded that I pay up to my deductible, and then gave the incorrect amount that was owed because when I called BCBS to verify on April 24th that I owed that much money, BCBS said that I had met my out of pocket for the year and owed $0. When I approached the insurance dept at UT Physicians with this error and asked them to confirm with me after they talked to BCBS that I indeed owed no money, I was told that that wouldn't be necessary, because they would 'take my word.' My scheduled date grew closer and I didn't yet have a time given to me as to when it would be taking place. On the Thursday before my surgery, Connie Klein did call to tell me that it would be between 7:30 am and 1:30pm, and that I would get confirmation on Friday or Monday. No confirmation was received. I called on Monday afternoon only to get the automated call center saying that the office was closed. I couldn't even leave a message. On Tuesday I finally got the hospital, NOT UT Physicians to nail down a time, only to get the call 30min later that my insurance had backed out. No one from UT Physicians has returned my calls, or even called to talk to me about the situation since. I find all this suspicious and highly upsetting. So no, I would not recommend them. I have no problems with Dr. Christi specifically. I don't think that she personally went out of her way to mislead me. I just think people need to know before they decide who's going to cut into them, that maybe they shouldn't get their hopes up.
