Breast Reduction dream come true
Absolutely, LOVE Dr.Tanovic!! I was looking for a plastic surgeon for a breast reduction. I had seen two male doctors prior to Dr. Tanovic and I just didn't feel like they understood what I was looking for. When I went to see Dr. Tanovic, when I tell you this was the longest non rushed consult I ever endured, I am not exaggerating. We were in there for at least a FULL hour, she explained everything, she answered all my questions and addressed my concerns. She even drew out how my scars would look so I can get a visual of what she is going to do. Honestly, I couldn't be MORE HAPPY! I went from a double E to full C and I will be forever thankful to her. It also helps that her office is so nice and helpful. This place is the whole package! So happy I found them. A ++

Thanks to Dr. Tanovic’s skills
I met Dr. Tanovic in the ER after I fell and fractured and broke my nose. She was kind, calm and reassuring. After healing my nose looks great. I owe so much to her and her caring staff! I highly recommend this skilled surgeon!

The best!
Dr. Tanovic, her PA Andrea, and staff are all amazing!! I went to her to treat my acne scars which I have been dealing with for years. I have tried many treatments which never worked. With just 1 treatment of the vivace micro needling that she offers, it made such an improvement and my skin is so much smoother. I was only red for 1 day after and super happy with the results. 10/10 highly recommend going to her!!

My personal opinion after getting silicone removal with Dr. Tanovic: I CANNOT recommend this Dr. There is no reason to be left disfigured after removal. There are many doctors that do a great job and leave you with an aesthetically pleasing result. Not only do I look bad. I am in constant discomfort after having my removal surgery. I regret going to this Dr. as much as I regret getting the silicone injections. Do your research before choosing a Dr. ladies! Going to this Dr. was such a big mistake.

Dr. Tanovic’s staff are wonderful and she is friendly. BUT, her work is poor. I had reconstruction and reduction almost a year ago. The final product looks like a first year medical student’s first surgery, or an extremely exhausted Dr. Tanovic who just wanted to go home after finishing the left breast and moving to the right. I have two different size breasts and I’m off centered. The bad side (originally the good breast) is bigger and the nipple hangs lower. The scar bunches is up into a mound of folded skin on each end and the scar is way too long. I was a DDD before surgery. I’m still wearing a DDD because the bad side still needs the DDD. So much for the reduction. At my 3 month post op visit, Dr. Tanovic said she can fix the breast if I wanted but we’d need to wait until my 6 month visit to set it up. Before my six month visit, my husband said that he didn’t want me to go through another surgery especially with that woman. Kindly saying that I look just fine. I wanted good.
