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.

Great choice. Exceeded my expectations Kind, caring. and patient. will be sending my friends

I went for top surgery but he only removed my implants and not my brasts as I requested. Then denied me pain medication for 4 days, he blamed the pharmacy since they didn't have it in stock, but he refused to prescribe anything else. He is incompetent, has a careless personality, and took pictures of my chest without my permission. My chest is scarred and I'm forced to see another surgeon to experience the same pain all over again. Also, he's affiliated with an awful hospital who called the cops on me after getting out of bed to use the bathroom without the nurses' permission...

While in his office, after learning of an insurance conflict, Dr. Kressel still took the time to see & guide me with regard to my health care! He was kind, patient, generous and knowledgeable. I'm extremely grateful and have plans to see him next month for a different procedure.

Dr. Kressel is very respectful and intuitive about his surgical procedures. I was nervous at the beginning but after the first pre-op appointment, I knew there was nothing to be scared about and that I was in good hands. He explains everything professionally and makes the whole experience comfortable and easy. I would highly recommend Dr. Kressel to anyone looking for a respected doctor and fantastic results!

Just wanted to thank Dr. Aron Kressel for helping to put me “back together again” with my breast reconstruction. I am so happy with the results. He is a fantastic plastic surgeon and his P.A. Ann is wonderful. Thank you so much for the beautiful work you’ve done on me. I look at myself and almost feel like cancer never happened to me. You are awesome and very professional. Thanks a million.
