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.

Horrible surgeon who doesn’t care about patients
Dr. Short is the most inconsiderate individual and gives no regard whatsoever for her patients time. One can sit in for hours in the exam room waiting to be seen. Her excuse is she’s a perfectionist and takes her time with each patient? How can she get 3-4 hours behind schedule or cancel scheduled appointments because she can’t adhere to a time schedule? Her unprofessional behavior is unacceptable and inappropriate. I made the mistake of waiting and scheduling a procedure; I have regretted that decision for quite some time. Go to another doctor; she isn’t worth your time. You will be disappointed in every way.

Dr. Short is a life changer!
Dr. Short & her office employees were amazing! There is no question I could come up with that she didn't have a good answer for! Her care & instructions for recovery were perfect! If I had a question or concern all I had to do was call and it was answered! Thank you ladies!!

The breast augmentation and mastopexy I had with Dr. Short changed my life! I had sagging and volume loss after weight fluctuations, and now I have the full perky bustline I always wanted. If you are looking for an experienced, highly skilled and friendly female surgeon, I highly recommend Dr. Short. Her staff is very knowledgeable and they really go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable and informed. I would recommend her to anyone!

Dr. Short is so sweet and truly cares about her patients. She does an amazing job and really knows her stuff. I love how proactive she is. Her staff and her do a great job educating you before surgery, to make sure there are no surprises later. Great results!!

Absolutely unprofessional office staff and M.D. Paid $100 for consult to which M.D. was 1+hr. late. Saw her chatting with staff and browsing her phone in hallway during what should have been appt time. Staff member admitted nose jobs weren't her "thing."Apparent as M.D. didn't perform examination and insisted in fillers (which would have exacerbated the issue) rather than surgical correction.Very different than my 3 other plastic surgery consultations.Avoid this awful unknowledgeable practice.

I went to Dr. Short for larger implants, mine I have had for about 15yrs, wanted fuller perkier breast, when at the consultation, Melissa had said the way you grabbed your breast, sounds like you need a lift. Dr. Short came in, Melissa explained to her what I wanted, and they both said a lift would be best. Dr. Short stated she can take old implants out, and just put same ones back in. It would just be a lollipop incision scar. I woke up, BOTCHed Areolas are not same size. I am going in to speak

REGRETFUL LIFT in Noblesville, IN – Dec 27, 2018
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Short?
I would never recommend her to anyone! I went in for under eye fillers and came out totally BOTCHED. I’ve had under eye fillers before. Never had any swelling or black eyes. The day after, my eyes were swollen shut!! I had black eye for over two weeks!! Once the swelling subsided, I was left with lumpy skin under my eyes. I’m now looking for a doctor to correct Doctor Short’s mess. Please DO NOT visit this doctor. One give away was that everyone in her office looks like a blow fish (Google it!)

Unprofessional and had to wait for over an hour bc she hadn't shown up to the office. While in the waiting room I overheard one of the staff talking about where she was and how this was a normal thing for her. I was not impressed with any part of her as a doctor. After doing my research I'm glad I did my due diligence as her rate of repeate surgeries is way above average costing the patient more money out of pocket and then left off worse than when they went in.

I was very pleased with my experience with Dr. Short and her staff. I felt comfortable and the results of my breast augmentation were exactly what I was hoping for. I brought in pictures of what I wanted and she delivered. I am 9 weeks out now and couldn't be happier.

Amazing staff and Dr. Short is an artist as well as surgeon. I had a tummy tuck and breast lift and couldn't be happier with the results. As a RN, I did extensive research regarding plastic surgeons and know I chose the best around!
