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.

More than satisfied, I am amazed!
From the moment I walked into his office, I felt at ease. The staff in the waiting room were friendly, patient, professional, and helpful.I thoroughly researched Dr. Breitbart and he met all the requirements on my checklist. Being a board-certified surgeon wasn't enough for me. I also needed a plastic surgeon who took pride in their work and whom I could trust to recommend what was safe and right for me.During our consultations, he actively listened to my questions and was sensitive to my needs and concerns. He was honest and provided straightforward guidance on the best approach to my situation and the realistic results I could expect based on my body composition. This made me feel comfortable and confident that I had finally found the right plastic surgeon.My results are more than I could have hoped for!

Smart Lipo positive results.
My experience from 1st visit to follow ups after procedure have been very positive. I am extremely happy with results of having Smart Lipo on my belly and flanks. Prior to appt w/Dr. B, I lost 15 pounds. I was not horribly overweight just out of shape and really just wanting to get back into my size 8's. Dr. B was honest about potential results. The day of procedure, he and the nurse were very kind, soft spoken and professional. The results met my expectations which were realistic. I am very happy choosing Dr. B and Smart Lipo. For me the procedure was affordable and visible results achieved. I did not want to have surgery with tummy tuck, etc... His staff are very organized and friendly. Dr. B is quietly direct, which I like. I was given options regarding anesthesia. Procedure took place in his office. I was the only patient and full attention was provided to me. Down time was minimal and for me, pain free. I followed his directions regarding wearing tightening garment, etc...

Outstanding results after Gynecomastia surgery
From our first visit, we had a wonderful experience with Dr. Breitbart. My son's gynecomastia surgery was so much better than expected. He had no pain and very little swelling. The results are amazing. He has so much more confidence. Dr. Breitbart's staff is wonderful and so organized. I highly recommend Dr. Breitbart and his caring staff.

Improvises
I’m a skinny marathon runner who eats super healthy, but I wanted to reduce wobbliness on my thighs, which I clearly communicated numerous times to Dr Breitbart. June 17, 2020 was my surgery date, but something happened during surgery. He proceeded to do a lipo on other locations, not at all addressing the thighs. When I brought it up to him, he said that I should’ve known that he shouldn’t have done the lipo there - but I’m not a doctor, he is. I had explained my situation over&over and trusted he knew what he was doing. Refusing to acknowledge that he had done something different from what we had agreed on, he said well, I thought this would give you a nicer silhouette, your legs look more balanced now, no? Also still have big, bullet-like scars (despite following all the instructions) -from a surgery that was incorrectly done to address something that wasn't even a problem in the 1st place. Wouldn't recommend.

Great service are a fair price
I had severe gynecomastia. Dr. Breitbart, evaluated me and said he will be able to perform the surgery. We discussed everything prior and went ahead with the surgery. He is a many of few words but does a good job. My only issue is that I wish he had done more liposuction along with the skin removal. My results compared to pre-op are night and day but I would have just appreciated that extra step to ensure there is less of a sign of fatty tissue there. The way he did it the cuts does make me look like I have a "built" chest however so I am not too upset. Overall, I will highly recommend him because he knows what he is doing and you will be happy with the overall results as I am.

At first I was happy with how he approached the consult & how he spoke very clearly & matter of fact about the procedure. Assuring me I was a great candidate as a healthy, active individual. I said numerous times during that my biggest fear was coming out botched. He didn’t "sell" me which I liked & brushed off the mention of coming out botched or having issues as he handled these all of the time. My surgery day came & went. I did everything they told me to a T. I wore my suppression garments more than required. I wanted to do what I could to have the best result. That’s where the good feelings ended. Every visit back I would bring up the issues I was having (the ripple in my leg, the unevenness of around my stomach & the entire area on both sides of my back that were missed) & he was always defensive & combative explaining that he can’t help me. At first it was full results at 6 months. Again, at 9 months I brought up the issues again & was told it takes a year. Go to a different doc.

I struggled for a long time about the decision to have liposuction and abdominoplasty. I went to my consultation with Dr. Breitbart and his demeanor gave me comfort about my decision and that he was the right person to perform the procedure. For the last six weeks I have felt that this has been the BEST decision I’ve made for myself in a very long time. I’ve said to him on every visit “you’ve changed my life.” And he loves to reinforce it by showing me the now dreaded “before” picture LOL. It’s very hard to think that I lived inside that body not living life fully. Just 6 weeks later I can wear my first bikini and all my clothes fit as they were meant to. I don’t have to wear a larger size simply to accommodate my waist line. I feel and look so much better…and for anyone else struggling with whether or not this is worth the investment and whether or not this is the right doctor stop your search, u found the right person don’t hesitate!

I don’t even know where to begin, Dr. Breitbart and his staff are simply the best. I was beyond impressed with Dr. Breitbart from my first consult appointment to my latest post-op appointment. I am overjoyed with my mommy makeover results! My only regret was waiting so long to do it. Thank you Dr. Breitbart and staff for making my surgery effortless!

I went for liposuction of the abs and flanks. I specifically told Dr. Breitbart that I wanted a natural look. I told him that I just wanted a smaller version of my current shape. He listened and after only two weeks out I can see a major difference. I am extremely happy with his services. He and his staff are extremely professional and courteous. At 41 years old this is my first time under the knife for any type of surgery. I am completely pleased.

I would gladly recommend Dr. Breitbart, I’m happy with my results and he is professional and humane. I found him on the right time after I had a bad experience before (3 experiences with the same previous doctor) . I went to him for a second opinion as I needed to do a 3rd review (surgery to fix the mistake) and he was very honest with what kind of results i can or cannot achieve if I want to go ahead and do a 3rd review as my previous doctor suggested. I’m glad that we still have doctors that they are honest and care about their patients not just after the money. He is really experienced and professional, he listens and care. I really really recommend him

Went to Dr. Breitbart on a referral from an ENT for a Rhinoplasty. I could not be happier with my experience! Dr. Breitbart was extremely kind, patient, professional, and all-around great person to have gone to for the job. He understood right away at my consultation what I wanted to be fixed and knew exactly how to correct it. He was accurate and thorough in his explanation of the process and recovery. The best part was the results! My nose came out perfect and exactly how I envisioned it. I'm very happy with how everything went. His staff is extremely kind and flexible with scheduling and also very helpful throughout the surgical coordinating process. Highly recommend Dr. Breitbart and his services.
