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.

Breast reconstruction
Dr. Collawn is awesome. She is kind and caring to her patients. Her surgical reconstruction of my breast after cancer surgery and treatment is the best. I am so pleased with the results. She took her time explaining the procedure and what I needed to do for after care. I’m so impressed with her as a surgeon and with her team. I’m a retired nurse and am very selective about who I choose to perform surgery on me. I would recommend Dr. Collawn to anyone that is looking for an excellent plastic surgeon.

Positivity is great but overrated here. All I hear is how great I look, which I’m not asking for. I’m asking for a correction to a problem I feel she caused. Of course, I would have to pay big bucks to fix. Not happy.

I had an appointment with Dr. Collawn to check out a cyst (fatty tissue under the skin) on my shoulder. She confirmed that it was cyst and no harmful but could be taken off if I wanted to. She then proceeded to tell me that I would need surgery and anesthesia and schedule a surgery day. I have had similar cyst removed years prior without surgery. 'Her' procedure would have cost over $15,000!!! obviously I didn't do it. Needless to say, she is out of touch and out reality with real patient care.
