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.

Knowledgeable, comfortable, listening and caring
Dr P is truly one of a kind and has been such a blessing on my journey of reconstruction after BC. She is so talented and listens, takes time with you, explains everything so clearly. And I had a bit of a special case so she was researching on the side and gave me answers where other doctors could not. Cannot recommend her highly enough

I went in thinking I needed a neck lift and wanted information on surgery for it. I was happily surprised that I was encouraged and told I DIDN'T need one and other ways I could achieve the look I was going for without surgery. My neck two weeks later looks amazing!

From the moment I walked in the door, my experience at Dr. Polavarapu’s office was first class. The office staff are so very kind and organized. It honestly felt like I was hanging out with friends (which is awesome when you are nervous). My appointment was right on time. The office is beautiful, clean, and feels more like a home than a sterile hospital environment. Dr. Polavarapu is amazing. She asked so many questions to learn what my goals of care are- instead of just telling me what she thought I needed. How nice is it to have a physician listen? She was very thorough in explaining the procedure and her attentiveness to detail is outstanding. She is so kind and funny. My results... I could not have been more pleased with the outcome. My expectations have been well exceeded. Compassion, skill, and kindness are just a few words to describe Dr. Polavarapu and her team. I highly recommend Dr. Polavarapu for all of your plastic surgery/ facial fillers/ and skin care.

I visited Dr. Polavarapu for a consult and she was over priced. Her prices for procedures are relatively high as compared to other highly rated Surgeons. She was pleasant, attentive and explained everything in detail, however she seemed to embellish things too much. It's one thing to be cautious and safety minded (which I appreciate and like), but it's quite another to be somewhat of fear-monger and imply that her technique is the best and that other surgeons will short-cut you.

Dr. Polavarapu is an amazing surgeon. She is meticulous in her procedures. She is also compassionate and personable, and spends time going thru details of procedures, what to expect, follow-up, and answers all questions. Her office staff is kind and welcoming and easy to get in contact with when needed. It is obvious how much she cares for her patients. I would highly recommend her.

I had very large implants put in in my early 20's that I hated instantly. At 29 I had enough and needed them out and I did not want replacement implants. Dr. Polavarapu gave me a great experience! She made me feel very comfortable. She is so easy to talk to and had a lot of knowledge about her craft. She checked up on me the day of my surgery. She is meticulous and really cared about my well being. My breasts look amazing. I highly recommend her.
