Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Oliva performed my breast reduction in February 2019, and I cannot be more happy with the results! Every aspect of the surgery exceeded my expectations: I had a great pre-surgery experience and a painless recovery! The staff at the surgical center are friendly, efficient, and very knowledgable. Dr. Oliva is very kind and gives patients realistic expectations. I am 25 and went from a HH to a C/D cup--my only wish is that I did this years ago!

As a Nurse, I was familiar with Dr Oliva's work. He is an artist, a kind and caring Physician, as is every one in his office. Especially Therese. I had a great experience and really appreciated the personal attention. All of my questions and concerns were thoroughly discussed. The post procedure process was exceptional. I am completely satisfied with the outcome and would highly recommend Dr Oliva and his staff.

Dr. Oliva did my reduction and lift and it was a wonderful experience. Going in, I thought it'd be painful an I was stressed of complications but he is so thorough, realistic, purely magical! That not only was healing way easier and less painful than I thought but my results are a 10+!!! I would never go to anyone but him if I decided on any plastic surgery... he will be honest and tell you realistically speaking how to achieve the best results.

Dr. Oliva was amazing! From my first appointment he took care of me. He was so kind and explained everything in detail that I understood. He took the time to answer my questions even if they were silly. My surgery was exactly how he said it would be and its been such a blessing. Dr. Oliva did a fantastic job and made sure I was happy. He always made sure to ask how my husband was doing. I'll always be grateful. The office & surgery staff were so great, I couldn't have asked for better!!
