Failure to perform as agreed or to disclose pertinent information...., Apr 14, 2012 Dr. Calabria misled me as to the fact that he had never been sued by a patient (I have his e-mails to prove it). Had I known he had been successfully sued and was currently on probation, by the medical board, I would never have allowed him to operate on me. By Calabria’s own estimate, and that of other plastic surgeons, the procedures he was to perform on me: vertical face-lift, neck-lift, endoscopic forehead lift, lower eye-lid correction (blepharoplasty) and fat injections (volume restoration) to various places on my face; that I paid $41,000 for should have taken 8 to 9 hours to perform. He spent less than 5 hours on my procedures. Two of the procedures got infected. My left lower eyelid, seen to by Dr. Applebaum , and the right cut in my skull. The endosocopic cut had opened to such a degree that Calabria was to re-stitch it. He did not.” Rather than the “Vertical Facelift” I paid for he performed the One-Stitch procedure instead and left me with the scars to prove it. He also caused a lump on my cheek. He promised to eliminate this lump; he did not. My lower Eye-lids were to be done from the inside; he cut on the outside and stitched in my eyelids resulting in a chronic case of blepharitis. |

Really wonderful surgeon and fantastic office staff...., Mar 18, 2012 Dr Goff is an excellent surgeon and she is also very kind and always takes time to explain things to me and discuss alternatives. She worked with my naturopath and combined standard medical therapy with alternative therapies and I am really grateful for the great care that she has given me. Her nurses, Holly and Heidi are simply the best in the world. |

Southwest Medical Center Should Be Avoided At All Costs...., Mar 17, 2012 Dr Bergfeld is a good doctor, but the staff of Southwest Medical Center are some of the most discourteous, inefficient and vile folks you'll ever deal with and this is not my unique experience. They don't answer the phones and when they do, they either disconnect you, connect you to the wrong doctor, or just totally unprofessional. If your time and happiness are important to you, this is not the place to choose. |

Knows a lot about lasers - very nice surgeon who will spend a lot of time with you..., Jan 26, 2012 I went to Dr. John Burns for a Fraxel laser treatment and my skin looks amazing. I look much younger, and my skin looks so much better. I have a lot fewer spots and my skintone looks much more even. He is a very nice doctor too, and knows a lot about laser treatments. He spent a lot of time with me. I highly recommend him! |

definitely not the doctor for me or my family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..., Jan 6, 2012 Judgemental, egotistical, talks down to patients. Pushes way too many medications and unnecessary tests on patients. Hard to reach during business hours, let alone not being able to reach in the evening or weekends. |
