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.

Patient for over yr n half.
Dr handler performed very difficult(4hr) removal of old implants and insertion of new implants. His skill is amazing and bedside manner calming and reassuring. I. Have seen him for other issues and he has continued to provide top notch care along with great office staff eesp Amy.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Handler?
In April 2016, had a consultation w/Dr. Handler to unquire about breast implant removal. Had my implants for 13 yrs & wanted them gone! Consultation fee was $100 and is applied towards procedure, should you choose to proceed w him. I was ecstatic when he said he could perform a simple removal in his office under local anesthesia for $1,000. This was EXACTLY what I was looking for! Now I'm 1 year out! Dr. Handler & staff are professional yet very easy going &unpretentious. PERFECT for Me!
