Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery

Dr. Steve Laverson was recommended to me by another plastic surgeon who was retiring and I was not disappointed. At my very first appointment he and his staff made me feel so comfortable I knew he was the one to do my breast surgery. He took lots of time to help me choose the perfect size and shape for my implants. In person my results look much better than my before and after photos . I`am thrilled with the results, it was amazing that in such a short time I told Dr.Laverson that my new breast really felt like me. I can highly recommended Dr. Steve Laverson.

If I could give Dr. Miller and his amazing group of people more than 5 stars I absolutely would. From the moment I called to schedule a consultation, to my 6 week post op appointment, I was made to feel like a million dollars. I was referred to Dr. Miller’s office by a friend, and taking her recommendation was one of the best things I could have ever done. Choosing Dr. Miller for my breast augmentation was one of the best, most comfortable experiences of my life and I would absolutely recommend this office for any cosmetic procedure that you may want. I got exactly what I wanted yet somehow so much better than I could have ever imagined. The nurses and front desk are absolutely incredible people and Dr. Miller is just the absolute best. I am over the moon happy with my results and will continue to come to Dr. Miller and his team for any of my cosmetic needs.

Gentle fantastic and professional. referred by my family i’m so very glad I was. I came all way from Hawaii to make an appointment with him and he exceeded my expectations.

Thank you Dr. Rudolph for being so considerate, thorough, and precise with your surgery in a supportive, nurturing and clean surgical center. I will truly miss you. I called to make an appointment with you regarding two more cancerous growths and I was told you are retiring today!. Selfishly I'm truly disappointed, but for you I am very happy. I wish you happiness in your future endeavors. Thank you for saving my nose and appearance when there was such a very large hole carved out of my face to remove the squamous and basal cell carcinomas, without even doing a skin graft! There is no indication any surgery ever occured your work was so perfect. Thank you again for your professionalism and kindness that put me at ease. May God bless you and yours, Dr. Rudolph.

Absolutely the best - Michelangelo of cosmetic surgery. Incredibly conscientious surgeon with a great office team that goes above and beyond. Also outstanding post surgical care. You can't go wrong here.

Dr. Smoot went above and beyond my expectations. He is incredibly professional, particular and thorough with his work. Dr. Smoot, his nurse Carmen, and the entire staff at LJCSC were wonderful. They always made me feel comfortable and addressed all my concerns - I would highly recommend Dr. Smoot and his team!

My consultation with Dr. Wheeler for rhinoplasty was on a Wednesday in early February 2017. Earlier in that week, I had gone to my first consultation for rhinoplasty with another plastic surgeon from another practice. I did not do any Google searches for either of these plastic surgeons in terms of patient reviews. Nor do I know anyone that has gone to them for any services. After the consultation with Dr. Wheeler, I made the decision right then and there to have my rhinoplasty by Dr. Wheeler. He explained why he chose the method of closed versus open, that there would be no need for cartilage harvest, that the surgery would take about 90 minutes, and will be done in the surgery center suite which is in the same location as the office. He went over post-op care, the time frame for follow up appointments, which levels of activity could be undertaken, when I could travel by airplane, etc. Most importantly, he was forthright about when the desired outcome of the surgery would be seen. (It can take up to one year for full effect) I felt reassured that both my medical safety and desired outcome from the rhinoplasty would be in highly experienced hands. He is caring and compassionate. His attention to detail fosters confidence. My surgery was in April. The day of my surgery, he went over the plan with me again and answered all of my questions. He is an excellent physician/surgeon! His consultation/pre-op nurse and patient care coordinator are both equally caring, compassionate thorough, and dedicated. In fact, everyone at the La Jolla cosmetic surgery center is warm, friendly, supportive, encouraging, and enthusiastic. I love my new nose because the changes look natural.

They always say, "If you want to find a good doctor, ask a nurse." Well, I'm the nurse to ask. I was looking to have my face laser resurfaced. (Had some fine lines, and hyper pigmentation issues.) Two of my trusted colleagues (fellow ICU nurses) also work for Dr. David. So I did some research--a lot of research. Dr. David only does faces. Trust me, this is the kind of doctor you want. He's also double board certified--Ear, nose and throat and plastic surgery. He completed his fellowships at excellent schools, and has no outstanding grievances on his license. (Like I said, I did of lot of research!). I met with his nurse, Tonia. She is a former ICU nurse herself, and has a tremendous amount of experience. She is trained to use the lasers, as well as injectables (I believe). I had a consultation with her and could tell instantly that she is incredibly knowledge and honest. She recommended I do the FX laser CO2 lite. She didn't try to "over sell me" on a deeper laser or other services that I didn't want or need. She honestly cares about the patient, and gives an accurate assessment and recommendation. I had the procedure. She performed it beautifully, and it was exactly as she described. I healed beautifully and quickly--exactly the way she said! Also, they have a "post-op" plan that they follow. Prophylactic antivirals and antibiotics and a 6 day course of steroids. (I had done extensive literature and medical journal searches--what they do is the "gold standard" in medical practice at this time.) I would give the office and Tonia 5 stars, I would give the laser 4 stars. I think I had some slightly unrealistic expectations as to what extent the laser would rid my face of hyper pigmentation. But all in all, I would do it again, exactly the same. My face looks smoother, more even toned and the hyper pigmentation is much less (just not quite all the way gone) I HIGHLY recommend this office. I was not solicited to post a review, and I have received NO COMPENSATION for writing this review.

Had a great experience with Dr Kearney and his team. He set expectations and explained possible issues and outcomes from my surgery in detail. Highly recommended!

I recently had breast lift and replaced my implants with Dr. Pollack. He is one of the nicest surgeons in San Diego and really listened to everything I wanted. His staff is very attentive and the surgery center at Sharp is excellent! I am so glad I chose Dr. Pollack and would recommend him to all of my family and friends.

It was simply an exceptional service! The staff was very nice, provided amazing service, super friendly and they make you feel like family! They give you support and let you know that everything is going to be okay. From the first consultation to get an estimate to the consultations after my surgery, everything is perfect and I have no doubts in my mind. The receptionists, coordinators, nurses and of course the doctor, all give a splendid service and are bilingual, so everything is perfectly clear and people who havent perfected their english 100%, will always feel welcome. The doctor is the most amazing specialist ever! I am extremely satisfied with my results from the surgery. I got exactly what i wanted and what i expected and my mommy make over was marvelous and i don't hesitate in recommending him and to return and ask for his services in the future. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Dr kolstad performed revisional rhinoplasy and I am beyond thankful I found him. I can't say enough about him!! I trust him 100 percent and will never go to anyone else again!!! thank you dr kolstad!

Dr. Mofid and his entire staff are fantastic! I will not go anywhere else for any procedure. I have referred several friends to this clinic and everyone is always pleased. His office manager is very knowledgeable and helpful. Dr Mofid is an artist. His nurse Michelle is a GEM!!!

I was in to have a lesion removed and when the Doctor ask how i was doing I replied "just waiting for you to start". He just laughed and told me he was done. I couldn't believe it, I never felt a thing. That's how good Dr. Pietraszek is.
