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.

I would NEVER recommend having plastic surgery with Dr. Owens. The experience during my facial surgery was awful. Something went drastically wrong during surgery. I was told due to an allergic reaction to an antibiotic the surgery was halted. (I am not allergic to the antibiotic.) One side of my face was surgical opened. Dr. Owens told me to find a cardiologist that could see me that same day. Omega does not have a cardiologist on staff. Dr. Owens made me leave the hospital immediately.
