Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
I was fortunate enough to visit both the Chevy Chase and Annandale offices. At each visit I was pleasantly greeted by the front desk staff and nurses.
Dr. Albino is an outstanding plastic surgeon. He's a caring and sensitive surgeon. All my appointments, Dr. Albino asked me how I'm feeling, he talked to me. I love his genuine caring for me, he even called me on the phone twice to see how I'm feeling after surgery.
My reconstructed breasts look like a nicely enhanced version of my real ones.
I was referred to Dr. Albino by my breast physician. 12 years ago, I underwent a mastectomy/reconstruction and was in need of a replacement implant. I had put having this procedure off for a long time, but after meeting with Dr. Albino and his staff, my fears dissolved. Dr. Albino was professional and trust worthy in every sense of the word. He gave honest advice, and made certain all of my questions were answered. During my consultation, I felt like I was talking to a friend who truly had my best interest at heart. His staff was equally impressive. They exceeded my expectations in every way possible. As a result of this phenomenal team, I had a lift and a replacement implant. I'm extremely pleased with the outcome. Dr. Albino did an amazing job!
Welcoming environment. Staff remember their patients. Dr. French was genuinely interested in how I viewed my surgery.
Dr. Price and I work together in the operating room. I observe his great skill and judgement every time I assist him. I decided years ago that if I were to have a cosmetic procedure, Dr. Price would be my choice for surgeon.
Dr. French and the CPS team are the best. Caring, professional, and invested. Would never go anywhere else.
The procedure was explained in detail including recovery and step by step instruction for medications.
Staff is friendly and knowledgeable - very professional - Dr. Rao is amazing and always has numerous options for the best outcome.
Everyone I encountered was a first class professional! This is rare for an office.
Dr. Albino is a great surgeon who takes the time to explain what's going on with your body and answers any questions you may have.
Dr. French and all of the staff were highly professional, informative and helpful. My procedure turned out amazing and exactly like I wanted.
After double Mastectomy I had the spenders put in my breast, everything went well, good recovery, I really appreciate the all attention and care I received, Thanks Doc. Albino I'm ready for Reconstruction.
The results were great. Exactly what I wanted. Also, the office staff and follow up are terrific. Very efficient, caring and professional
The entire staff has been professional throughout, respectful of my privacy and my feelings about this procedure, helpful and informative. From top to bottom, they have been top notch.
Excellent quality of health care, one of the best I have ever experienced. From a gifted surgeon who has a wonderful bedside manner, to highly competent and approachable nurses, to professional and friendly office staff.
Staff was cordial, accommodating, helpful. Never has such a good experience as this.
I'm always treated at both locations, every staff member make you feel at ease and give quality care. Dr. Albino has been wonderful and is extremely skilled plastic surgeon.
Dr. Albino was very thoughtful and compassionate throughout the process. He came highly recommended by my breast cancer doctor. I am so grateful to be on the other side of that and very happy with my reconstruction.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer and my surgeon recommended Dr. Rao to do the reconstruction work. I am someone who would never have visited a plastic surgeon without this issue and on top of a very traumatic diagnosis during COVID was not in a very good frame of mind. I can't say this emphatically enough that everyone on your team from the front desk staff to Laramie and the nurses on the team like Lindsey were all very kind and supportive through the process and their level of customer service really beats that of most other doctor's offices I have been in this fall which given the cancer diagnosis has been many. I was impressed with the manual I got and the pre-education and coaching so I knew what to expect and how best to heal.... all of that stuff really put me in a better frame of mind and I felt more in control of my own healing. Doctor Rao and his team have really have really exceeded my expectations. I want to admit that one my first visit still reeling from my diagnosis, I wasn't all that keen on Dr. Rao. Not because he wasn't nice or professional but because his focus seemed to be on the end result and I was still in a very raw place and grieving over being about to lose one if not 2 perfectly good breasts. I realize now that he was just trying to reassure me that in the end he was going to make me look good but I wasn't there yet. I am just saying this not as criticism as I am not sure in his place that I would have done anything differently but I wanted to say this more so he and others in the office have some insight in to where other cancer patients heads might be. Sincerely I have had many moments over the last few months where I have given thanks for Dr. Rao and have wanted to send a "thank you note" but this survey came first. As I have healed, even with the expanders in place can see now what good work he has done already and I feel more normal than I expected to and look better than I imagined. I will be ready to get these expanders out for sure!! But in the interim I can look at myself in the mirror with out shock and horror and I feel good about myself. I really am thankful for Dr. Rao's excellent work. I want to also thank dear Laramie who when she knew I was having a rough time, surprised me with a gift certificate for facial. That small act of kindness made me so good at a time when I was on an emotional roller coaster. Again another example of the stellar customer service of your team.
Very Satisfied! The nursing staff in Chevy Chase was wonderful and Dr. Rao did a great job!
[Highly satisfied?] Yes!! Everyone was very pleasant and patient and listened to my fears and concerns. Very professional staff that always made you feel reassured rather than a burden no matter how many times you contacted the office, nurse, or doctor.
Thank you to the very caring staff while I was at the Chevy Case facility!
This was a surgery caused by a cancer diagnosis, which is not one I would have elected to do on my own. Dr. Albino made me comfortable from the start. He spent a lot of time with me explaining my options and he took my personal situation into account. I have young kids and he advised me on a certain surgery so that I would have the fastest recovery. This was the best advice. He really took the time to help me make the best decision for me and my family and I appreciate that. He also had good bedside manner and I enjoyed working with him.
The office staff is very friendly and welcoming. They set the tone for a very professional appointment. Dr. Price is very approachable with concerns and questions, and takes his time to explain procedures and expected results. He is a gifted surgeon and I have been very happy with my results. I have, and will continue, to recommend him to family and friends.
Dr. Albino is such a gifted surgeon....I am so glad I found him! The treatment I received before my surgery and during my recovery was just amazing. Dr. Albino's team, pre-op nurse Lindsey and Shiloh also deserve recognition. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Albino and CPS staff.
Dr. Albino and Lindsay answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable. Dr. Albino is simply the best!
Dr. Albino and his entire staff are professional, compassionate and provided outstanding service. The only thing that surpasses Dr. Albino's kindness is his expertise.
Dr. French is always so kind and thorough. He takes time to examine your concern and answer any and all questions that you may have. His staff is also kind and pleasant to work with.
Everyone in the office was very helpful and friendly. They made me feel extremely comfortable and I will be scheduling my surgery soon.
Dr. French is a superior surgeon that has a fantastic bedside manner. My body looks AMAZING!!!
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Dr. Albino performed two separate surgeries 9 months apart. The first was to insert breast expanders during my double mastectomy. The second was my DIEP FLAP reconstructive surgery (together with Dr. Rao). Both surgeries were a huge success with NO complications, and the healing was so quick with both procedures. I honestly believe with both surgeries, so much could have gone wrong with the wrong surgeon. He had the extra difficulty during the DIEP FLAP reconstruction of trying to make two breasts symmetrical, with only the left side having radiation and major skin changes. I am so THRILLED with the results! Even my oncologist said my reconstruction looks so good, she would use this team if she had to do this. SO thankful for Dr. Albino's expertise, great personality, and attention to detail. I would only use him for ANY plastic surgery!
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Dr. Frank Albino was professional, kind, caring, sincere, the list is endless. With the amount of "problems" I had come up, Dr. Albino was always there for me, no matter what time of day, or even on weekends! His personalized attention to me and at times my emotional breakdowns I had with my cancer diagnosis, he understood and his compassion was above and beyond. Dr. Albino always: made me feel welcomed, explained every procedure to my full understanding, (and some days I admit were a challenge for him because I was so scared). Lindsay, Dr. Albino's nurse was professional and kind and always made me feel welcomed and cared for, just like Dr. Frank Albino. No question or concern was too great a challenge for Lindsay. She was always calm, cool, and collected. Mary, who was Dr. Albino's patient coordinator at the time, was warm, caring, and made scheduling my procedures so less fearful than they could have been otherwise. The front receptionist were professional, warm, and caring no matter how many times I bothered them with questions, or rescheduling. Dr. Albino's new patient coordinator (who's name escapes me at this time) has been "right on the money" and a wonderful replacement for his previous patient coordinator Mary. Despite the reason why I had to see Dr. Albino and "his crew" it was a wonderful and "never to be repeated" experience for me. As soon as I walked into Dr. Albino's office and met Dr. Frank Albino, I felt safe, secure, and well cared for. I have been to many doctors, and Dr. Frank Albino has been one of the top doctors I have had the pleasure to be under his care.
The outcome was what I wanted. The staff are great. The fact that I have had some post operative issues and they are being addressed professionally and with treatment is terrific. The litmus test of a good provider is one that supports follow up and treats complications or outcomes as they arise. I will continue to work with Dr. Albino and his team for all my plastic surgery and skin care needs.
Dr. Albino is a caring doctor. During my visits I feel like I am his only patient. He listens to my concerns, answers all questions and puts me at ease. The team that works in the office is outstanding as well.
The entire staff at the Annandale office are, in my opinion, some of my favorite people I've had the pleasure of meeting. The genuine care, concerns and treatment of the person as a whole, a true patient-centered approach to practicing medicine. I would recommend Dr. Albino and his staff to any person.
Dr. Rao was very competent and personable, and clearly explained my options for the procedure and his recommendation based on the latest science. Dr. Rao and the nurses were very patient and informative when I was deciding the size that I wanted to get. I am 100% satisfied with the end result and I wish I would have had the procedure sooner.
Dr. Albino and his stuff were so friendly and also the surgery was a success with the grace of God.
Dr. Rao is AMAZING. After finding out I had breast cancer, Dr. Rao was the surgeon that was part of my double mastectomy. His part was to put in the expanders and stitch me up cosmetically so I looked good afterwards. I was so impressed with the results after just the first stage of surgery. I wasn't expecting to look that "good" after getting my breasts removed! He was very professional and made me feel great knowing he could help make me look "normal". After a few months, it was time for him to swap out the expanders and put in the implants. They looked amazing! I didn't think I could look that good after getting my breasts cut off! Then I decided to get a tummy tuck at the same time when he swapped out my expanders and put in the breast implants. I had lost a lot of weight in the past 12 months and he was able to get rid of all the extra skin and fat and now I have perky boobs and flat stomach! He is amazing and I would recommend him 100%. Also - I found out about him through my breast cancer surgeon who told me if she ever had to get breast augmentation she would go to him! He is GREAT!
Dr. Albino and his team are so supportive and responsive to my every concern...no matter how small. I felt cared for by the team.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Dr. Albino and was very patient with me during what was probably one of the most stressful times of my life. He explained the options with realistic outcomes. He was amazing in dealing with me and my anxiety. He under promised and over delivered on both surgeries.
Dr Albino has great bedside manner and a reassuring demeanor. His staff are quick to address issues as they arise. Everyone I have encountered has been professional and caring.
I was fully informed about every step of the process as to what to expect from consultation to post surgery and follow up. The single best experience was/is Dr. French! He is such a warm personality with a great bedside manner. I am very happy with the outcome.
Overall the surgery seemed to go fine, but my recovery (need for drainage) went way beyond normal, and there was a bleeding event in the middle, too. Not sure what to make of that.
Dr. French is an excellent surgeon with better than expected results. His staff is so friendly and competent. No mistakes in scheduling or follow ups. His nurses are incredible. They are gentle and kind.
It was a very highly organized episode of care. Dr. French is superb and has corrected other surgeries performed by different providers. In addition to the face lift, he also did a nose job that really improved the looks and ability to breath better. But most importantly, Dr. French is more of an artisan with his skill. He his easy to talk to and approachable and makes the little things seem important as well. Great bedside manner.
Everyone in the office was extremely friendly and professional! The doctors and nurses were very informative and very willing to answer questions.
Personable staff and very thorough in prepping me for surgery. Dr. French is wonderful.
I think everyone in the office is nice and attentive. They are respectful of privacy. Shiloh is very warm and easy to talk to. Lindsay answered all of my questions before and after surgery. Dr. Albino is caring and has great bedside manner in addition to his obvious excellent skill as a surgeon.
Very comfortable with procedure. Dr. French was up front and honest. Beside manner was fantastic. His staff, especially on surgery day were very warm and welcoming. The anesthesiologist was amazing! I barely even felt the IV and I had very mild recovery. She was so exact in her questioning and I really think that’s what made the entire procedure so smooth.
Dr. Albino and his staff are very patient and detailed in their explanation of my treatment and procedures.
[Highly satisfied with] Doctor, Staff, Results! Great consultation pre and post surgery.
The staff are all wonderful; Sherrie is very kind and professional. Dr. French is so impressive-his credentials, experience and knowledge all make you feel confident and safe. Plus he has the best personality ever.
Provided with excellent information about the procedure. Doctor was very confident. Nurses very professional and front desk staff very welcoming. Relationship with the hospital was great.
The office staff is very pleasant and helpful always ready to help. Consult went well.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
The outcome was not what I expected or had been discussed.
I'm a 72 year old woman. I think he did a magnificent job with what he had to work with. I am very pleased - even with one implant that keeps flipping.
I am extremely happy with my overall improved appearance of my neck and jowls. I always used to look so saggy, now I feel like I look fresher and happier.
My surgery turned out excellent! Dr. Albino knows his craft extremely well and anticipated any issues. He was able to fix the symmetry of my mastectomy breast and natural tissue. It makes me feel while again. Dr. Albino had a great bedside manner and is always upbeat when I see him. He also takes great pride in his work and making sure I am comfortable with the plan and results. I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family! [Single best thing is...] Symmetry of my breasts again!
Dr. Albino is a very talented surgeon. And he has the most caring bedside manner. He is understanding of my needs and ensures all my questions are answered. The reconstruction surgery after my mastectomy has made me feel whole again.
Dr. Albino is an excellent doctor. He is highly skilled, listens attentively, and has a wonderful, warm, calming, and caring demeanor. I feel very fortunate and grateful to have him as my plastic surgeon. In addition, every member of his staff is outstanding. Everyone from his office that I came in contact with, in person or on the phone, is very professional, and clearly dedicated to putting patients at ease. It is an absolute pleasure to go to this office. I feel very well cared for. Also, having a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery is a difficult and frightening experience under the best of circumstances and going through those procedures during a pandemic heightened that fear greatly. Dr. Albino and his staff worked tirelessly -- through several cancellations and postponements by the hospital -- to ease my concerns and get my reconstruction on track.
My neck and face look young again. [Single best thing is...] Have a side profile again.
Axillary Breast Tissue Removal
Dr Albino is just as nice as can be. He didn't make me fell anxious about the surgery in any way. He did a fantastic job and the follow-ups were great. He never talked down to me as some Doctors can do. He was very sympathetic to my situation. Overall a very pleasant experience for my condition. A+ The best part of my experience was how easy it was to talk to Dr. Albino about my concerns both pre-surgery & post surgery. We came up with a plan and stuck to it. He did his part and all worked out as planned.
Dr. Albino is my favorite doctor and the whole office staff are absolutely fabulous. I have never felt more cared for in a genuine way than with this practice.
Stylish, friendly, clean and comfortable, everything thoroughly explained, so respectful and clearly experienced - the office staff and the doctor.
The office personnel are professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Having a chin lift ten years ago Doctor French has always been in my memory to have a face lift when needed.
Dr. French, Sherrie and the nurses were so attentive, caring, approachable and very professional. Love you all, and hope to be back soon. I cannot thank you all enough. I was completely confident with everything. Dr. French, Sherrie, and the anesthesiologists. I wasn’t worried about anything.
The staff were very pleasant. Sherrie was kind enough to share her personal experience with me and to provide her insight. Dr. French answered all my questions patiently. Talking to him put me in ease about proceeding with the surgery.
Results were what was expected. Care and questions post surgery answered timely. Dr. French and staff helpful and prompt especially during pandemic.
I felt safe and secure. The whole staff is extremely responsive. I’m pleased with the results and recovery. It was always nice to see and talk with Dr. French and his staff.
Very attentive staff, all my questions answered and options fully explained.
Dr. Albino did a great job with my reconstruction surgery. He's very attentive whenever I reached out to him with questions or concerns. The direct to implant made it possible for me to be done in one surgery.
The staff was friendly. Communication was consistent. Dr. French was professional and listened to what I wanted. I felt comfortable enough for him to make the last minute call in size. [Single best thing is...] Dr. French’s experience.
Dr. French is a compassionate individual. He took the time to explain options to me and answered all my questions.
The doctor and nurses were thorough in their explanations of the pre-op, actual surgery, and post-op recovery. They were very attentive to my personal concerns and answered all of my questions. There was no “up-selling” of additional procedures they could do, rather they listened to my interests.
Dr. French has a wonderful bedside manner - he is calm, measured and very kind. He goes over everything in detail and makes sure you understand the entire procedure from start to finish. He takes great care during the healing process to make sure you are doing okay. Highly recommend Dr. French! I couldn't be happier with my results, it is exactly what I was hoping for.
Excellent pre and post surgical care. Very satisfied with the results of my surgery. Care and concern expressed by Dr. French and his staff are very much appreciated. [Single best thing is...] Interaction with Dr. French.
Took time answering all of my questions and put me at total ease with the surgery and recovery. The whole team went above and beyond to obtain my devices, fit me into the surgical schedule on VERY short notice, and to follow up with manufacturer to insure the devices. Extremely happy with final results. THANK YOU for everything. [Single best thing is...] The hospital was behind schedule and the surgeon came to see me and reassure me and just chat, which put me at great ease.
Diana was super friendly, patient, and very kind to me. Mary Ann was awesome and she was very knowledgeable about everything I asked of her. Dr. Price was real cool.
Dr. Albino has been a true blessing for me. Being a bit anxious, concerned of the breast reconstruction process, I did not know what to expect. However, Dr. Albino assured me that I would be fine, he provided the best options for me. He is truly the [best]! I am beyond THANKFUL for Dr. Albino and his team! Dr. Albino's technique for surgical incisions is exemplary! I am truly impressed and thoroughly pleased with the results.
Dr. French and his staff were very knowledgeable with my surgery and recovery. I have never met a more well rounded extremely happy staff. They truly love what they do and how they can help you along the way. I love my breast reduction, don't know why it took me 8 yrs to have it finally done. So very happy that I chose Dr. French, he did an amazing job with my reduction, I was amazed of how little pain I had, only discomfort from the swelling. He and his staff took great care of me and the one time that I did call the service with questions, they promptly called me back. I was completely surprised how much I love my new small breast. Certainly the best decision I have made in regards to my health and well being. The reduction has made me more confident in how I feel about myself, let alone, my shoulders, neck and back! Thank you Dr. French, you are truly amazing!!!
Dr. Albino and his staff are the best, very friendly and always making sure that I understand everything about the surgery. [Single best thing is...] My breast looks better than I think.... better result than I thought.
Dr. Albino did a great job making me feel comfortable through the whole process. The team of nurses were great, as well, and eased my concerns. [Single best thing is...] How comfortable I felt through the process.
Dr. Albino is always very nice and patient. He listens to what you have to say to make sure that you're achieving the results you want. [Single best thing is...] That I was able to get my chest back after cancer.
I received excellent care and Dr. French is an artist and exceptional surgeon. I am very pleased with the results!! [Single best thing is...] My appearance is is what I hoped for.
So far, I've only had the double mastectomy/ expander surgery, and I was highly satisfied. Dr. Albino and Dr. Magnant work well together, and they did an amazing job so far. Looking forward to the final DIEP flap reconstruction later after summer.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Dr. Albino has such a comforting and wonderful "bedside manner" and that really helps. He makes you feel very important every step of the way. His outstanding reputation precedes him. Dr. Albino always listened to what i had to say and resolved issues and concerns in a positive way. I had a lot of work done and it is amazing what a plastic surgeon can do to restore the body. Pretty amazing stuff. I had a lot of work done and it is amazing what a plastic surgeon can do to restore the body. Pretty amazing stuff.
Dr Albino and his nurses are wonderful. They take the time to listen and answer questions. [Single best thing is...] I will be cancer free and when my daughter sees me, she won't think about cancer...in the future after I heal.
Dr Albino is very professional, very honest and very handsome/charming too. He knows the business, took care of my needs and I relied and trusted him completely. I really appreciate that he returns messages promptly even after hours and answers questions, whether emails or calls. I love, love, love Dr Albino and will highly recommend him. More power to him!
I don't believe the surgery was successful... because at the time, the cause of the issue had not been determined.
Dr Albino and his team went above and beyond to ensure I received the required care.
All were very professional along with being very kind. I feel much better about the outcome of this surgery than the first reconstruction surgery.
All details of the surgery were given ahead of time in a manner I could understand. The outcome is mostly what I expected. [Single best thing is...] It was done at a convenient time and place.
I found Dr. Albino and his team to be very supportive and knowledgeable. The single best thing was to feel satisfied with the reconstruction results.
Dr. Albino is great and the staff has been wonderful. Dr. Albino was recommended to me by my breast surgeon during a very difficult time after being diagnosed with breast cancer and Dr. Albino has been awesome through this process. His reassurance that he is there to support me through not just the procedure he was doing for me but the journey I am on was appreciated.
Dr French is an excellent surgeon. Very compassionate. Answers questions in detail and is always professional.
The best thing about the treatment results is that the shape of my breast is looking more "normal". Dr. Rao and his team were very thorough and made me feel comfortable the entire time.
I had a lot of complications and Dr. Rao was on top of it and very responsive and attentive. I still have a great result despite the problems.
Dr. Albino was wonderful. He listened to me and made me feel comfortable at office visits pre-surgery and going into surgery. As far as the surgery, I am SO HAPPY with the outcome thus far. I know it will just get even better. Dr. Albino is awesome.
I appreciated all of the follow up visits with Dr Albino. The procedure went well, it just took a very long time to heal.
Dr. Albino really listens. [Single best thing is...] The confidence it has given me.
Dr. Albino and his whole team have amazing communication skills. I loved the detailing the procedure, follow up, even calling me at home the night after surgery to ensure I was doing well. Blown away. [Single best thing is...] The outcome. The results were amazing. It took multiple surgeries trying to remove rouge cells with the oncologist but in the end the reconstruction was truly amazing. Stunning.
Dr. Albino and his staff are very knowledgeable and approachable. They made me feel supported and cared for throughout the nerve racking cancer/breast reconstruction experience. [Single best thing is...] Cancer took my breasts. Dr. Albino gave them back to me :)
Staff is always very attentive and caring. Dr. Rao is very skilled and I am very pleased with my results so far. Outcomes have been great.
I feel better about the way I look. Dr Albino was caring and really understood my situation. He has a great rapport and answered any and all my questions.
Dr. Albino is absolutely phenomenal. At a very difficult time (dealing with a breast cancer diagnosis), he gave me confidence in his ability...and peace of mind in my decision regarding reconstruction. He is incredibly talented...*and * personable. I am so grateful and appreciative that he was the lead surgeon on my procedure/mastectomy and DIEP flap. I literally cannot say enough good things about him (and your office).
Dr. Rao is amazing! Nursing and office staff are very friendly and make you feel very comfortable. I have a great experience every visit! Dr. Rao was able to keep my nipples after bilateral mastectomy and my breasts look amazing after all they have been through.
Dr. Albino always treats me with great care and answers my questions. He followed up with me a couple of days after my surgery, which I very much appreciated. [Single best thing is...] getting good results after my surgery.
My breast reduction and lift came as a "bonus" after surgery for ADH. I was very worried that the ADH diagnosis would be upgraded to cancer after pathology, but thankfully all came back clear. Dr. Albino and his staff were very professional, kind, reassuring, and compassionate. It is hard and embarrassing for me to talk about my breast and to have people look at them, but somehow they put me at ease and made it not so bad. I had a few hiccups after the surgery, and the staff was super responsive and attentive to my worries and questions. All is fine now, and I am healing well. I am very glad to have a smaller, lighter chest -- something I never imagined or believed would ever happen for me. I am only 4'10", but I had a 38 DD chest. Now I am more proportional.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Everyone is pleasant and the doctors are attentive and talented!
Good experience overall. Dr. Albino is great at easing the worry about surgery.
I had a series of procedures: mastectomy, reconstruction and removal of tissue expanders, and revision of reconstruction. All throughout, Dr. Rao was very clear, thorough, and complete in explaining to me the procedure and expectations for each procedure, and he was receptive and thorough in answering my questions about the details of each procedure. The results of each surgery are exquisite, which is a testament in Dr. Rao's excellence as a plastic surgeon. His nursing staff in the Annandale office (Tina, Saiphon, Lindsey, and the others) as well as the ladies at Reception were very professional, thorough, and caring in relating to me during pre-op, post-op, and follow-up visits. Laramie Johnson, the scheduling coordinator, was likewise very professional, thorough, and very nice and pleasant throughout my surgical experience. The reconstruction revision was held at Glen Echo Surgical Center and the staff--from receptionist, the Pre-op nurse, Betsy, the OR nurse (Maria), the anesthesiologist (apologies that I missed to get her name) gave me complete and clear explanation of the procedure. Vasti, the post-op nurse was very caring and thorough in making sure of my comfort and that post-op discharge information was clear to me and to be aware of signs and symptoms to watch for.
The results look fantastic and the recovery was a lot easier than what I was expecting. Dr. Rao and his team were friendly, professional, and super helpful during the whole process.
Dr. Albino is an exceptional doctor. He's extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Whenever I ask questions (and I have a lot!) he always takes the time to make sure I understand. He never makes me feel as though my questions are silly or dumb, and he gives me all the time I need. My experience was an emotional one, since I was seeing Dr. Albino during my cancer diagnosis and treatment, and he was always kind and understanding. In addition to his excellent bedside manner, he seems very competent in his field and well-versed in current studies. The work that he did for my reconstruction was beautiful. He goes above and beyond to make sure that I am happy and healthy. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
He was very positive. Relieved me of my fears. He did a wonderful job!
Dr. French and the entire staff are awesome! Everyone is so well informed, friendly and accommodating.
It was hard to make the initial phone call and the person on the line was perfect and encouraging. The nurses and the doctor were friendly and professional. Oh - yes, the results were just what I wanted! I don't have the big stomach patch of fat anymore and was so encouraged by the staff. I am not young!
Dr. Rao appears to care about the outcome of the procedure as well as my comfort. He recommended a new cream treatment that might help my swelling. I just feel like he cares.
Very pleased with Dr. Rao and his medical staff. Everyone put me at ease. Everyone was very professional and respectful. Facility was very clean. I felt well taken care of. It was overall a procedure that was successful.
Everyone in the office were very friendly; Dr. Price was very informative and open to any questions I had. Dianne, the finance personnel is very professional, informative and very friendly.
The results are wonderful. Preparation for surgery was thoroughly explained. Dr. French takes time and even came in on a day off to check out my nose.
I look like a 50 years old woman when I am 63 years old. Getting 10 years younger is priceless!! :)
I was most impressed with Dr. French at our initial consultation. Instead of him looking at me and telling me everything that needed fixing, he asked me the simple question, "What results are you looking for?" The breast lift with slight reduction was performed at the office surgical suite. It was so nice not having to go to a hospital. I felt like I was the only one he was concentrating on and that I had his full attention. The same nurse was with me the whole day, from when I arrived to when I left. She even called when I got home to check on me!
He answered all my questions! Everyone was very nice. It was super simple and straight to the point.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
The office is run efficiently. Dr. Albino is thought of highly with surgeons at Inova. He is always thorough, friendly, patient with my questions, and shows empathy. Because of the outstanding skills and professionalism of Doctor Albino, I didn't worry about my outcome. I am still healing today, but the results of his work are excellent. I feel relieved and grateful.
Everyone was supportive & helpful. They got me in as soon as possible.
All the staff were friendly and reassuring on my visits. Dr. Rao was wonderful and optimistic about the whole procedure, which went so well, I was pretty scared to be diagnosed with breast cancer. The reassurance I got from my visits gave me such a feeling that I was in the best hands. And, I was!
Dr. Albino is highly skilled, knowledgeable of breast cancer issues and compassionate. I had a lumpectomy that took a significant portion of one breast. The margins from the oncology surgeon were "close." But because Dr. Albino had taken additional tissue and had it tested for cancer cells (negative) I did not have to go into surgery a second time. My breasts look better than they did when I was 19 (I'm 62). Dr. Albino called the night of surgery to check on me and responded quickly to any of my calls with questions after. The single best thing about my procedure was Dr. Albino's amazing skill as a surgeon.
I was valued as a patient. All my questions were answered and I understood what was being stated to me. My breast are bigger and I felt no pain after my surgery nor did I have to have any pain medication.
I was very nervous and felt uncomfortable going into appt., but Dr. Albino listened to me and addressed my needs professionally, making me feel much more at ease with the procedure. Chantal Bserani was equally attentive in scheduling and working out payment. The overall experience was much better than expected, and I am looking forward to the result!
Dr. Price was very comfortable to talk with. He was familiar with my previous surgeries with him. Diana was understanding and supportive when I expressed concern re: the cost and possible ways I might reduce those costs. I look forward to going forward with my surgery in early 2020. Dr. Price is a wonderful physician.
Everyone at this office is not only highly knowledgeable but also very caring and kind. All of the procedures were fully explained and there was no pressure at all to make a decision. I felt so at ease and confident in the surgery I was considering that it was easy to make the decision to move forward.
It was pleasant, professional yet caring and friendly. My entire experience was so calming because of all the information pre and post op including personal consultations and written information on what to expect. Dr. French is The Very Best, as is his staff. ❤️
Dr. French and all his staff exhibited the highest level of professionalism, expertise, and organization! I felt I was treated with a genuine care as their patient, throughout the entire surgical process! I am extremely happy with the surgical result and the entire experience at CPS!
Dr. Price and his team was honest about the entire process. All my concerns and question were answered. I was highly valued as a patient, I was heard, and I was treated with respect. I wasn't pressured into anything that I didn't want to do and no one tried to sell me any other service. I'm extremely happy with my result so far and I plan to go back to have another procedure done. This was my very first cosmetic procedure and I would highly recommend Dr. Price and his team for anyone who's looking to have any work done.
Dr. Albino was patient with me, knowledgeable, and provided amazing care after my procedure. He and his staff are wonderful and I will be recommending him to friends & plan to come back for additional work. The size, shape, and feel of my breasts are amazing!
Amazing doctor who chooses his team carefully, amazing staff. In 2016 I did upper lip lift and breast implant, was well informed and prepared about the healing process, results beyond my expectations. Just recently June 2019 went for eyebrow lift and forehead reduction. I love his work and talented touch and invisible stitches. Highly recommend for my family members and love ones.
Dr. and staff made the experience easier and less stressful. Dr. Albino was wonderful and very attentive.
Very pleased with the surgeon - answered all my questions. The reconstruction procedure outcome was better than I expected.
Dr. Albino was amazing! He was kind, supportive, and thorough. He made a very difficult time a bit more manageable. I always look forward to my visits with him.
Everyone in Dr. French’s office, from the front desk staff to the nurses, was helpful and kind. Dr. French has an excellent bedside manner. In his office and in the hospital, he was kind and took plenty of time to answer all of my questions. They have taken very good care of me both before and after surgery.
Dr. Price did an excellent job explaining the procedure. He and his staff were patient in answering all of my questions - even when I would ask the same one two or three times. The results are fantastic. And the pre-op team at Sibley was fantastic as well - keeping me calm, making me feel comfortable and not judged for the elective surgery.
Very punctual. Dr. French listened to concerns without interruption and followed with great advice and discussed options. He was not pushy or did not try to suggest other services that I did not come in for consultation.
Dr. French is wonderful - his bedside manners are the best. He is very kind and competent, and makes you feel immediately at ease. The staff at the Annandale office are also very kind and competent. Getting this surgery done was the best decision I ever made. The end result was well worth the pain (which was not nearly as bad as I had anticipated!) and the cost.
I've been Dr. French's patient for 20+ years and wouldn't think of going to anyone other than him. Over the years he has performed breast augmentation, rhinoplasty and removed excess skin from my upper eyelids. I've also had the CO2 laser procedure. The results have consistently been phenomenal and achieved what I wanted...a very natural-looking appearance. I'm now returning to him for my facelift. Dr. French and his team were very caring, informative and did a great job answering all my questions. My recovery was very quick and easy. I followed their instructions and in no time, I was out and about. Sherri always does an outstanding job going over the procedures and following up.
Marianne totally related with me about my procedure. We are about the same age and she was very open about her experience and what I should expect. It was comfortable. Also, Sherri was fabulous on the phone and with all of the details.
Dr. French is an amazing doctor; experienced, skilled, conservative, accurate, kind, thoughtful, honest. I mean, you couldn't ask for more. At age 67 my eyelids had an excessive amount of excess skin that hung over my eyes and really made me look older than my years. It also made me look perpetually tired all the time. Dr. French did a perfect job removing all this excess skin and my eyes completely refreshed and so much better. I'm extremely happy with the results and highly recommend Dr. French. I'm very happy I did this.
Dr. Albino was very thoughtful about his consultation. He answered all my questions and I never felt any pressure about making such a big decision. I appreciated his insight and professional approach. Great experience and will definitely be back!!
The overall finished product is amazing! The issues I had post opt were OK and he made them all better and his staff were so supportive! The end results were amazing
My appearance is improved, revisions were immediately performed. Staff is exceptional: attentive, knowledgeable, discreet; there is every opportunity to be judgemental, condescending, or obsequious and they are not. The physical set-up is ideal - attractive, quiet, comprehensive.
The staff made me feel very comfortable. Dr. Rao was very very honest in his evaluation.
Dr. Rai is professional, understanding and I have complete confidence in his abilities!
Planning was easy. Office was flexible with scheduling. Office nurse was great with explanations, answering questions and anticipating concerns.
From beginning to end, Dr. Price and staff made me feel comfortable with the procedure. Very professional and confident in what results will be. I definitely recommend this surgeon. [Single best thing is...] Feeling of confidence
He's amazing! [Single best thing is...] His perseverance given how challenging 4 surgeries and complications were.
Dr. Albino is terrific. His surgical skill, bedside manner, and personality are the keys to making the great doctor that he is. I trust him inherently. CPS has been so great to me, hands down a wonderful experience overall. [Single best thing is...] I received exactly what I wanted.
No one called to ask how my eyes healed after some of my threads were removed. One of my eyes don’t look good at all
I felt Dr. French was very professional and humble. He was very down to earth and made me feel very comfortable during my initial consultation. His posted results reassured me that he was the right Dr. for me and I’m very excited to see the final results!
Professional. Efficient. Courteous. The entire team was a comfortable experience!
Dr. French and his team were amazing! I never felt anxious or scared but always well cared for and safe. My results are exactly what I wanted. He is so talented.
Dr. Rao and his staff were extremely helpful and made the procedure very easy to go through. [Single best thing is...] After beast cancer, my breasts are starting to look normal again.
Dr. Rao is highly skilled and has the best bedside manners. He assured me I would come out of my mastectomy looking amazing and he delivered. He is thorough and confident. I had full faith and confidence in Dr. Rao going into mastectomy and reconstruction. He made me feel at ease and answered all my questions. My breast surgeon and Gynecology oncologist both had a very high opinion of Dr. Rao. In addition,the office staff and nurses are amazing. If you are looking for a doctor to perform reconstruction Dr. Rao is your doctor, you will not regret the decision.
I feel more confident and comfortable with my body. I am extremely pleased with the natural look and feel of my new breasts - even though after my surgery, I was very worried they would be too large. They have settled nicely though and I’m extremely pleased! My scars have healed nicely as well. [Single best thing is...] My new breasts have made me feel like a woman again. Prior to having, and breastfeeding four children, I had breasts I was very happy with. Having my breasts virtually disappear after nursing my four children affected the way I felt about my body as a woman. I’m thrilled to have my breasts back!
Got rid of my jowls, my triple neck, everything I wanted. It turned out better than I expected. The staff was fantastic. And he always sees you at your appt. time.
Looks very natural. Quick recovery time. Everyone involved both pleasant and professional. [Single best thing is...] The doctor did exactly what I wanted, no more, no less!
Dr. French listened to every concern I had and met every expectation. I love my new boobs. I was disproportionate before the surgery and now my breasts look even and make me feel so much more confident about my body.
I feel that my neck looks OK, but I now have jowls . The left side is much worse that the right side.
I was very satisfied and pleased with my experience with Dr. French. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about helping patients. Staff was very kind and courteous. I am very thankful for the excellent care I received.
Staff. Especially the anesthesiologist took a great deal of time with me. No one seemed to be in a hurry but I was ready ahead of schedule.
Dr. Rao took a less invasive approach to my revision reconstruction, not needing to liposuction from my abdominal area making my recovery less painful. Plus, my left breast looks very similar to the right one. The Glen Echo surgical and nursing team was top notch especially the anesthesiologist. [Single best thing is...] I did not have a hangover from the anesthesia nor continuous pain during my recovery.
I got the silver lining of breast cancer - new boobs! And smaller too! [Single best thing is...] Dr. Frank Albino's bedside manner. He listened to me, and calmed me during the turmoil of breast cancer.
I waited in the waiting room for over 20 minutes. I then got taken back and spoke with the Dr. who was very rushed. I then went to wait for the pricing and I sat out there for over 15 minutes before I stood up to leave. She grabbed me heading out.
I'm very pleased with the results of my surgery. Dr. Albino set realistic expectations and then met them. But what is more remarkable to me than his surgical skill is his behavior toward me as a patient. I always feel like he listens to my concerns and addresses them in a very down-to-earth manner. He went above and beyond what I could have hoped for in my post-operative care. I expected him to be an excellent surgeon. I didn't expect him to also be so nice. I was also pleasantly surprised by the office staff. Every single person I have dealt with at the Annandale office has been so friendly and efficient. I only have positive things to say about my entire experience. The results of the surgery have had a huge positive impact on my self-confidence. I no longer have to try to camouflage the features that have been bothering me for years. What a difference!
Dr. French is knowledgeable, great communicator. Made me feel I picked the right guy.
Dr. French and his staff are all professional, knowledgeable and caring. They explain every procedure in detail and answer all questions completely. They put patients at ease and provide follow up care with compassion and competence.
Very caring and professional team. Consultation was efficient and all my questions were answered. Felt like Dr. Price and the team were sincerely interested in my goals for the procedure and helping me through the process.
Staff was very attentive and thorough with making sure my choices would result in the best outcome for me. I received amazing after care following the procedure and made to feel extremely at ease. Very happy with the results.
Dr. Albino and his staff are wonderful. Everyone is friendly and professional and I know I'm receiving excellent care. I'm a breast cancer patient and Dr. Albino has been able to make me look as close to normal as possible.
I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Albino. From the very beginning he showed great kindness and thoroughly explained the ins and outs of my procedure. There was very little to be worried or anxious about, both pre and post surgery. He even made himself available outside the office and really took the time to follow up to make sure my recovery was going smoothly. I can't think of a more friendly, compassionate, and skilled surgeon to trust, if I ever need another procedure down the road I won't hesitate to see Dr. Albino again. I truly felt like I was in very good hands with Dr. Albino. The overall quality of care combined with amazing results has lifted a huge weight off my chest, both literally and figuratively! I feel like a new person.
Answered all my questions pretty much before I needed to ask them. Asked often if there was anything else I was concerned about. Repeatedly encouraged me to call if anything else occurred to me later. Checked on mental wellbeing as I approached the surgery, ensured I had help and support setup. Talked about after procedure expectations and went over what I could do to assist my healing process. Staff was personable and caring they want you to have a good experience and address any concerns upfront if possible.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
I believe that the two doctors performed very well. Whereas a large portion of the DIEP flap Community bemoans the presence of "dog ears", I have none. Many folks have abdominal scars that are too high, mine is exactly where it should be. The doctors were there when I needed them.... via email, text, and telephone.
There was a very good match between the breast with the implant (following mastectomy) and the other breast. I had minimal pain after the surgery. Incision site is pretty much hidden by the fold of the breast and healed very well. My chest looks about the same as it did before the mastectomy and reconstruction.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Dr. Albino is amazing. Really puts you at ease. Great surgeon. I'd see him again and have recommended him to friends and family. The hospital where the main procedure took place was fantastic as were all the nurses. Less discomfort than before procedure
Dr. RAO is always very professional and comforting. The staff & doctor are great.
Along with being an incredibly skilled surgeon, Dr. Rao was very empathetic and kind. Could not ask for a better experience in a very scary, emotional situation. Basically, results are as explained/expected, happily so.
I feel that there was concern for my opinion and making sure I looked my best. I wasn't sure exactly what size I wanted to be and I feel the size chosen for me was a perfect fit for my body.
They where so nice and explained everything I needed to know also results were great
The staff was very helpful and kind. Dr. French took his time and answered all the questions I had asked.
A lot of info given...felt like office people cared...Dr. Price gentle and kind.
Still healing. Have not seen final results. So far, I’m satisfied with my progress.
I met with Dr. Price twice to discuss having my eyes and neck done. I felt that he was honest in preparing me for the surgery. I also felt that he didn’t pressure me at all regarding either procedure. The surgery went really well and at all three post-op visits he was incredibly professional and informative. I love my results. I love his entire practice.
With patience and thoroughness all procedures and after surgery possible occurrences were explained to me and follow-up appointments made. Pictures made and prescriptions given to me. Discussion of wearing garments or using ace bandages wraps. Complete confidence in staff. Even 2 letters, one from Dr. French about happy to hear of my decision to have the surgery. The one letter to give to my spouse, who served as a caregiver during recovery.
Informative. Results exactly as stated. Pre and post op great as always.
All of the staff was extremely professional and friendly. They made me feel very comfortable with the entire experience. I was very nervous to come in for a consultation and Maryann (the nurse) and Dianne answered all my questions and made me feel totally at ease.
The staff was very friendly and supportive. The Dr. is very friendly and makes you feel very comfortable with everything. They have answered every question and concern I have had and I am looking forward to my procedure.
Everything went smoothly, I had virtually NO pain after surgery, which was amazing, and I have had no complications what so ever! Couldn't be more pleased!
The patient education was terrific. I knew just what to expect. Everyone made me feel very comfortable with the consult. Some shared their own experiences with me. I felt confident I was in good hands.
From the start of my consultation to pre-op to surgery to recovery and beyond, the entire staff has been nothing short of Amazing! Mary Ann helped me every step of the way to get prepared and booking with Diana was a breeze. Thank you to CPS and most of all Dr. Price for giving me such an amazing outcome. I love my new sleek, smooth nose and liposuction. Watch out! CPS's next Top Model :) :)
Everyone from front office staff to nurses to doctor was very welcoming, professional, knowledgeable, attentive and caring.
The staff always makes me feel like I am the only patient they are seeing when I come in. Everyone is warm, friendly, and patient when I go through my list of questions.
My breast reduction surgery performed by this clinic improved my quality of life. The staff was welcoming and supportive from the start and finish of my process. The first consultation is free and thorough and I made up mind from that experience that Dr. French would do my surgery if I followed through with the decision.
Dr. Rao was so friendly and open about the procedure. I was very nervous but he put me at ease and made everything comfortable. Dr. Rao and his staff were always available for any questions I had and gave me great insights and information when I needed it.
My treatment results were really nice. Rao kept me informed about every step of the process. He also advocated for a bigger room when my initial intake was performed in a cramped space which was less than ideal for his pre-surgical review.
I recovered at a good pace and my expectations were well managed. I was pleasantly surprised by retaining more sensation than I expected.
Over the past year I have had 4 surgeries with Dr. Rao, and each time he has done an excellent job. I have been very happy with the results and have had a smooth recovery process. I find him to be a very technically competent plastic surgeon. I wanted to have smaller breasts through the reconstruction process and that's exactly what I got. My breasts now fit my overall body shape much better. The smaller breasts helped me to lose an excess 50 lbs so I am in my best shape now.
Wonderful, caring, kind staff and doctor. The majority of the experience. Friendly, patient team.
Dr French is an artist and his staff were extremely competent. Sibley was amazing and top notch in all areas. The nurses and physicians were excellent in all areas. I had an excellent experience with my surgery and my outcome and would recommend Dr. French to anyone. That's good
Dr. Price is not only an excellent plastic surgeon but also a good listener and communicator and works hard to make sure his patients are happy with their results. Diana Haan his patient coordinator is the best!
Dr. Price is an excellent surgeon. He performed my upper eyelid surgery, and, just last night a friend commented that my eyes look fabulous! I went to see him yesterday (2/15/19) about a small red blotchy area near my upper right temple, and he said that this is all part of the healing process from the chemical peel I had. Dr. Price told me not to worry about this - so I won't!
This is the third procedure I've had with Dr. French and cannot imagine going to anyone else. He answered all of my questions, educated me regarding realistic outcomes and understood my philosophy of 'less is more'. Dr. French also has a terrific staff who are unfailingly encouraging and patient. Dr. French is the best! Much happier with my appearance!
Dr. Rao is a talented surgeon, and I was impressed by the entire experienced. My results went beyond my expectations. He is so down-to earth. He listened to every question, and took the time to answer them fully and assuage any concerns I had. Also, I traveled from the midwest because of Dr. Rao's reputation--and he came recommended by my dermatologist. I had my pre- and post-surgical visits at his office in Chevy Chase, MD and my surgery in Annandale, VA. His assistant, Laramie, is AMAZING. She is so responsive and kind -- she immediately puts you at ease. In addition, the surgical team immediately put me at ease. I would recommend anyone considering cosmetic surgery to see Dr. Rao. Also, his pricing is very competitive, and his office is pristine.
The staff is friendly and respectful. Dr. Albino exhibits an outstanding balance between his skill and his "bedside manner." Other like professionals speak very highly of him.
Staff and Doctor were very responsive. Office was able to work with Dr. to gain short notice appointments and to address post surgical issues. I felt like all my questions were well answered and had no hesitancy about calling in for more info as needed. Thanks to all for a great experience. I am very happy with the care and attention given during the entire procedure.
Cannot answer fully as surgery is next week. This is second consultation with same doctor, did not go through with it the first time. A lot of communication was via email of phone as I do not live locally.
Dr Rao's expertise coupled with his kind listening skills were key to a great outcome. We were pleased with Dr Rao's knowledge, professionalism, perfectionism, and overall desire to provide the absolute best outcome with a reconstructive surgery.
Dr. French's work is subtle and he does not agree to procedures he believes inappropriate. No change except I look 15 years younger...
They showed compassion. The appointments were on time. The surgery went very well. The staff were great to work with. They worked well with my cancer surgeon.
I've had work with Dr. Price before. He is easy going and thorough. His Patience Coordinator, Diana, made me feel confident and comfortable. Each follow-up appointment has been short but good!
I appreciated the professionalism coupled with friendliness from the time I called to schedule my consultation to the time we left the office. I marked that I hadn’t received any forms prior, but in fairness the availability to get me in was the next day. So the timeline did not warrant a bunch of form filling time. When I arrived for my consultation, it felt like I was family. There was not a stoic or “stiff” feeling to the office, which made me feel even more comfortable. Mary Ann and Dr. Price were extremely informative and ensured that my decisions with sizing and timing of the procedure would fit into my life. I truly appreciate Mary Anns experience and ability to share her knowledge in a very caring manner.
Friendly personal. I have been there before since my wife had gotten a procedure.
Dr. French and staff have always been great, informative and amazing to deal with.
I had a previous procedure done here about 10 years ago and was highly satisfied.
Dr. Albino was highly attentive and very patient with all my questions. His willingness to answer questions, at any time, was greatly appreciated. Dr. Albino's calm and pleasant demeanor, combined with his caring attitude, is a chief reason I chose CPS over 3 other plastic surgery practices. Breast reconstruction following a double mastectomy (after breast cancer diagnosis) has contributed to a very high level of everyday satisfaction for me. While reconstruction doesn't cure cancer, it certainly has helped me move forward without feeling awkward or self conscious about my appearance.
First off, Dr. Albino is terrific and very skilled. But the whole office is superb - Mary was always helpful and kind, as were every single one of the nurses and technicians who helped me.
Dr Albino and the entire staff were incredibly helpful, supportive, available before and after, and clearly knew what they were doing and listened to me and my questions. As a result, I had no problem with maintaining a positive attitude and a minimum level of discomfort.
Not knowing what to expect during this healing process. And, I'm still experiencing discomfort five months after surgery.
Dr. Rao and his team are very caring. Dr Rao has a lot of expertise and is forward-thinking in trying to improve outcomes. He was thorough in explaining my options and expected outcomes and answered my many questions. The staff were great at coordinating and scheduling surgeries and appointments and keeping me on track, and they were available whenever I had issues or side effects that needed healthcare expertise. Dr. Albino also assisted Dr. Rao with my DIEP flap reconstruction surgery, which made the surgery time shorter and safer, and he was also great to interact with. The best thing is that I still have a full life ahead of me to be grateful for the amazing technology that gave me great surgical results after a difficult diagnosis.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Dr. Albino was professional and compassionate! He and the staff made themselves available for getting the process done in and expedient manner. I felt well cared for. Dr. Albino also focused on what would help me heal faster rather than just the surgery. I am thankful for everyone's kindness in helping me!
I really liked Dr. French personality and beside manner. He came recommended from a friend and through my research he's a top doc in the DC area. I liked your practice so much that I'm now doing IPL on my legs, arms and face along with Botox. I've probably spent 7K without having my eyes done. Looking forward to a mutually beneficial relationship. Thanks!
Dr Roe is an excellent doctor and the staff very friendly and welcoming. They always make me feel comfortable and they explain everything an a easy way for me to understand. I really love the practice.
Knowledgeable. Explained everything in advance. I felt very comfortable going into the surgery. [Single best thing is...] The final appearance.
I am satisfied with my experience, the price was just more expensive than originally thought.
Both with the experience and the results. The team was professional and caring. Dr. Rao is excellent. The results have been great. [Single best thing is...] how normal I look
Dr. Rao is very experienced. He takes all the time for you that is needed and he is a real perfectionist which in this job is extremely important. He did a tremendous job! I never imagined my breasts could look to good and so real after a reconstruction. They look very similar and you can hardly see the incision scars.
I have a good talking relationship with Dr. Albino and his nurses. I feel comfortable asking questions before, during, and after visits. Visits are a positive experience.
Autologous / Flap Reconstruction
Excellent communication about the options. Caring and compassionate doctor and staff
Practice was very supportive and I had no problems or complications with expanders during chemo or with later exchange surgery. Dr Rao is very knowledgeable and competent. Feeling more normal after reconstruction surgery was complete
Frank Albino is one of the kindest and most accomplished medical professionals I've dealt with. [Single best thing is...] The experience of being helped through the whole thing by Dr. Albino. I've also been told repeatedly that it is aesthetically a great result, which I agree with.
Simply put, I was amazed with the results and wanted more (this was my second time seeing the same doc for the same procedure, lipo). The doc is very credentialed and the procedure I underwent is pretty standard. I probably will have this done yet again in another year and a half or two years time.
Dr. French has a wonderful demeanor. I greatly appreciate the time and patience he and the staff take to explain the procedure and answer questions. Thank you!
First, Dr. Albino is amazing. He is easy to talk to, explains the procedure in a way that is easy to understand, great at listening and ensures that patients have points of contact to answer questions at during any time of the day. Second, Mary does a fantastic job of staying on top of all the paper work and getting procedures approved by insurance. As part of my mastectomy/reconstruction, I've dealt with many different doctors' offices and Mary and her team are by the far the best at managing all things insurance. Lastly, I've very pleased with the results. Looks great, minimal scarring and no post-op issues.
Implants are comfortable; surgeon has excellent patient communication skills. Surgeon is technically excellent New implants appear to be stable and are not slipping
They showed professionalism and they were patient with me. It was perfect.
Dr. Albino was kind and patient as he explained the process. He is meticulous in his work.
I got the results I was hoping for. It's tremendously satisfying to hope and wish for something for your whole life and finally be able to have someone deliver it to you. The personnel at CPS was very helpful and communicative. When my process began, Dr. Rao's patient coordinator was preparing to leave but set me up well with her replacement. Each visit was quick and informative. On the day of surgery, I felt like I was in good hands. Even though Dr. Rao isn't the most talkative person, I was comfortable.
Uneven breasts, both in shape and size. Not sure he even looked at them after because he wouldn't have been satisfied. Was left with nerve pain and had 7 issued fixed by snothet surgeon who knows what he's doing. I should've known better when he didn't have a photo album to look through of his work. Now I know why. Very dissatisfied.
I knew right away after my first consultation with Dr. Albino that I would be choosing him to perform my breast reconstruction. His bedside manner is top notch and I have always felt like a 'person', not a patient or client. It means a lot to me that Dr. Albino always sits at my eye level when we communicate and he is clearly always present. I was very impressed during our first meeting when he was examining my breasts for reconstruction and he quickly pulled my gown closed when there was a knock at the door. I have been in offices where the privacy and dignity of the patient are overlooked, but I have always felt respected in the care of Dr. Albino. Aside from his expertise, Dr. Albino also has a very personable side with a great sense of humor. Having Breast Cancer has been a very scary and challenging experience, and I can't imagine being treated any differently than how I was treated at CPS. Mary and all of the nurses were so accommodating and friendly and I am grateful that I found all of them to care for me during this time. I felt fortunate that Dr. Albino was able to perform a nipple-sparing mastectomy. My goal was never to look 'perfect' after surgery, but most important to me was self-preservation. Keeping my nipple made me feel more like me and reminded me less of Breast C
Dr. Albino took care to explain the surgery and my options and what to expect afterward. He is a perfectionist and does excellent work. He is also compassionate and very kind. The staff in the Chevy Chase Office were also wonderful-- very caring and responsive. I would recommend your practice highly. Natural-looking implants after a bilateral mastectomy
Dr. Rao took the time to explain every aspect of the procedure I needed. The physical results were exactly as promised and desired. [Single best thing is...] Patient care and comfort from the entire staff
[Single best thing is...] A natural look, and it is EXACTLY what I wanted. Dr. Albino is talented, patient, empathetic, and expresses candor when necessary and at the right time. He has a wonderful personality, he made me feel whole again after my mastectomy.
Dr. Albino and his team were fantastic! I felt so comfortable. [Single best thing is...] Smaller breasts that look great!
Dr. French came highly recommended by several friends who had procedures with him. He spent a lot of time with me and made me very comfortable with the results I could expect. Unfortunately I have to have a hysterectomy rather urgently so will resume the process of booking surgery as soon as I have recovered from that.
Male Breast Reduction / Gynecomastia
Excellent staff and surgeon. Excellent surgery outcome. Clear pre and post op instructions. We have been very happy with the results. We highly recommend this practice.
The initial phone call was a good experience; the patient coordinator was interested in my questions and concerns. When I came in for the consultation, Dr. Rao answered all of my questions and gave me a thorough explanation of the procedure and recovery. The patient coordinator, Laramie, was very helpful in scheduling my procedure. I was given multiple dates for availability; we did schedule a date but Laramie was very flexible and encouraged me to e-mail her if that date did not mesh with my work schedule.
Dd.French is an amazing surgeon! I loved everything about my experience and would definetely recommend him to all my friends.
Everyone, from the initial coordinator to the nurse and the doctor, could not have been more professional and courteous. This was my first plastic surgery experience and I had a lot of questions and some anxiety at the beginning. The whole process was easy to negotiate, the price was reasonable and most importantly the results were better than I could have imagined. It’s one of the best things I’ve ever done. [Single best thing is...] The results. I have new confidence!
Dr. Rao was informative and friendly. He answered every question I had and was able to give different options for me to choose. Each choice was based on how long the scar would be. He also went over pros and cons to the surgery and the recover time.
I am happy.Once in a while someone will notice and say: What did you do that is different? Most never notice.I am privileged to be able to look as young as I feel.Lucky, too. Not everyone can pull it all together to have the time, money, support, ability, etc. This was a bucket list experience. It turned out that there were no setbacks. I feel fortunate that I could do this with the right doctor, in the right place, at the right time, with my health metrics in the right place. Even his support staff did right by me... as this kind of surgery, while elective, takes care and kindness regarding each element of the recovery.Just grateful for the whole effort from start to finish.In the past few years, we have known many people who had their lives cut short. To fulfill a bucket list wish is accomplishing something. So I am content and thrilled simultaneously. Thanks
Very professional interaction with everyone.Evidence of a practice that has high medical standards.Very personable and reassuring.
Surgeon explained range of expectations with CO laser. The result was high on the range so that I was delighted.
I feel more confident and younger! It’s a great feeling! Dr French was attentive understanding and skillful. I am thrilled with my face lift and eyes, so natural! The staff was so helpful I could not ask for more! I highly recommend Dr French and this practice!
I’m not constantly thinking about my body in a negative way. I actually have some confidence now, exercise and dieting don’t feel hopeless anymore, I’m not constantly adjusting my shirt/pants/underwear, I actually buy and wear clothes that fit me—I’m looking forward to cute seasonal clothing now!Basically, it’s awesome. So worth it. . The staff was very friendly and accommodating, informative, and they were willing to work with me both on price and timing. Dr. Price himself was both conscientious and candid, and I appreciate his straightforwardness and professionalism. At no point did I feel like I was being sold something, coerced, or subjected to pushy salesmanship. The efficiency and honesty of the practice is why I wound up choosing it.
I am in severe pain constantly. I can feel the implants moving around and see them. I can no longer bend over, pick anything up or perform any strenuous physical activity and am now seeking corrective measures.
Board certified plastic surgeon. Excellent bedside manner. Listens and doesn’t rush patient. Patient treated as person not $. Professional, well run practice.
I had a wonderful experience with the doctor, whose skill I had researched and was not disappointed. The surgery itself and my recovery was very comfortable and I am totally satisfied with the outcome. I have virtually no scarring and my face is now brighter, with no sagging nor wrinkles. I am more confident, and feel pleased when people comment that I look years younger than my age.
I didnt think that revision breast augmentation would cost more than the original procedure.
It is helped my self esteem and helped me to feel better about my overall appearance. Surgeon was great. Answered all questions and was extremely helpful. Did a wonderful job and was available to answer all questions before, during and after surgery. Staff called several times to check on me and how I was doing. Staff was friendly and helpful at every visit.
The whole experience was great. My recovery was great and I love the outcome. I am more confident, look better in and out of clothes.
Dr French is a thoughtful, kind and caring surgeon. He took the time to get to know me and understood exactly what I wanted. He’s an artist and a true gem.
Fantastic surgeon & staff. The entire experience was exemplary. A packet as provided with information that had all that I needed to understand expectations & directions.The surgical suite was state of the art & the staff was extremely competent & personable. My surgery was highly qualified and skillful. I would most definitely use this practice for any other needs which I might have.
Dr French's experience and professionalism along with the friendliness and knowledge of the staff was amazing. I felt very comfortable and was treated with compassion and respect. I would recommend Dr. French to anyone and will definitely be back for any future cosmetic needs.Thank you!
Male Breast Reduction / Gynecomastia
From the beginning to the end I was completely satisfied with the process. Everything that was explained and covered happened as planned. The customer service was excellent and Dr French was very confident that the procedure would go well. This made me feel even more comfortable and gave me peace of mind. The outcome looks great which in turn makes me feel great. Definitely have a higher self esteem now.
The staff were welcoming, answered my questions without any sense of impatience, yet also didn't waste my time. Appointments were very efficient. Dr. French explained how it would go and then followed up with aftercare information. The surgery itself was as comfortable as it could be, and I am very pleased with my outcome so far!
All of the stuff was very nice. The surgeon was informative. It was an overall nice experience.
Dr Rao was very professional and accommodating. I had a very long recovery bc my stitches opened and needed several revisions. He was great during the whole process. In every way possible! I no longer cringe when I see my body, I can move more freely, but bathing suits and bras without having to special order them and I feel more proportionate.
I liked all the service and attention I received from all the staff and the doctor, I am very satisfied
The doctors, nurses, and staff are kind, and patient. No one is rushing you out of the door. They are genuine and complimentary. The doctor did wonderful work and it's only been 2 weeks!
Availability, openess and kindness shown by all. It feels like a big family and is such a comfortable setting. Also everyone ‘s skill and professionalism. I had previous procedures done there before surgery and was most satisfied.
I found Dr. French understood exactly what I was looking for. He explained the face lift and under eye procedures in detail. He made me feel extremely comfortable and I felt confident in choosing him to do my surgery! His staff was very friendly and helpful! Great experience!
Extremely happy with my experience with Dr. Price and this practice! Throughout the whole experience, I felt like I was in the hands of a very thorough, skilled and and extremely knowledgeable surgeon. This made me very, very comfortable. Diana, Dr. Price's patient coordinator, was also a huge reason why I decided to choose this practice for my surgery. The personal interactions and care that I received definitely eased my anxiety! Surgery is a big deal and I couldn't ask for a better experience. My surgery went even better than I planned and I am thrilled with the results. I will absolutely plan to return to this practice if I should decide on any additional procedures.
Dr. Price is amazing. I have had two procedures with him. He does excellent work and his rates are much lower than other surgeons in my area. All staff that I have encountered are friendly and efficient.
Amazing bed side manner by each dr/staff member. Really pleased with office, dr and procedure results.
Great results! . Dr Price and his team were knowledgeable and professional. They ensured that I felt comfortable with the process every step of the way. I’m extremely happy with my results and would return to Dr. Price for any procedure that I consider in the future.
The system was most easy to use. Following the consultation I just had to telephone to find a date convenient to the surgeon & myself.Thee entire staff was friendly & most professional. A wonderful practice, surgeon & staff.
I am extremely pleased with the results of my tummy tuck and wish I had done it sooner. . Since I have had other procedures performed by Dr. French, I knew what to expect from him and his staff. From the time of my consultation to the surgery, and then the post-op visits I always felt that I was with an excellent medical team.
The staff are now my friends for life, Dianna the patient coordinator ensured that I would get the date that I needed and she was just amazing throughout the entire process. The nurse Maryann called to check on me. I would recommend Dr. Price and his entire staff at CPS to friends and family. ( Oprah should have Dr. Price do her arms) I AM VERY WELL PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS.
Since I arrived at the place I was well looked after by the staff, even by phone they took good care of me, the facilities look impeccable, the doctor and his assistant were very kind, even with my difference of language, my main language is not English, then I always had a very reliable contact with the relation patient coordinator, this week I am already scheduling the date for my surgery
After going through Mohs surgery to remove cancer, I was left with a large hole on the bridge of my nose. I went to CPS on the recommendation of my friend instead of going back to the dermatologist. He was going to do a skin graft taken from the back of my ear and place it over the bridge of my nose and hope for the best. Apparently, this is done all of the time. The skin is not the same. I went in for a consultation with Dr. French, and he immediately set me at ease. I had been through so much already. I have never considered plastic surgery in the past, and I found that it was an easy decision to make. He was honest and thorough with what to expect, and he told me exactly what he was going to do. After the surgery, I couldn’t believe how wonderful the results were. He made me feel like a person again. Thank goodness for him. All of the staff were wonderful and kind to me, as well.
Well trained, efficient and professional staff. It’s clear they are experienced and know exactly what they are doing and what the patient needs. I had the surgery and spent the night in the hospital afterward which is a very good thing to do. I had a neck lift and eyelid surgery. Never took more than Tylenol after coming home. I left the house on day 3 and although I had bruising and swelling with sunglasses and a scarf no one noticed. I wish I had known how easy it would be because I would have done it long ago.
The staff and Dr. Price were amazing. All questions were clearly answered, I immediately met with the surgical coordinator who provided the cost estimates. I had one other consultation scheduled, but CPS was the hands down winner.
The single best thing about this surgical procedure is that it already looks great and I can't wait for the finishing product. Everything that has happened was explained therefore expected. During my follow up visit Dr. French reassures me that the end result will be what I anticipated.
Everyone was extremely helpful and highly qualified. Dr. French did a wonderful job on my eyes, face and neck.
I felt rushed on my follow up appointments, like the doctor didn’t care to address my concern with the look of my nose, he had also tried to explain the dent in my nose by saying my nose was crooked before, that is many reasons why i came in to have surgery, and i didnt have a dent, it was crooked, now it looks even more crooked
Dr. French and his staff were very professional and friendly. I was particularly impressed wth the gentleness, kindness and empathy that Dr. French exhibited. After weighing the pros and cons of the surgery, in particular the possible complications due to my use of anti-coagulents and the need to obtain from their use for approximately ten days, I am having second thoughts about the surgery..
Entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. They do everything possible to make the process as easy as possible.
The entire staff is helpful and knowledgeable and mad the process as easy as possible.The coordinator scheduled all appointments, took charge of receiving preop H+P, scheduled the procedure and kept everything organized.The Nurse explained and taught me preop and post care and was very knowledgeable.The staff are competent and efficient.
I've had plastic surgery in the past and knew what expectations I should have. Dr. French and his staff exceeded those expectations. I'm beyond satisfied with my results and I've shared that with several friends that are considering a little nip/tuck.
Dr. French and his staff were outstanding and did everything they could to make me feel comfortable both before and after surgery. I am very pleased with the result and wish I had undergone the procedure sooner.
I know I am in competent hands and that everything that can be done to ensure a safe procedure and successful outcome is done. A fast and uneventful recovery
As far as I'm concerned, there is no finer Plastic Surgeon as good as Dr. French. He is very skilled, compassionate and he really cares for and about his patients. I highly recommend the CPS staff and, in particular, Dr. French, for an plastic surgery procedure.
I am highly satisfied with all my procedures and will definitely recommend to anyone who is considering having a facelift to choose Dr James French
I received excellent information from Dr. French and the Patient Coordinator. I felt like there was genuine concern about my issues and that they would be best met at this center.

Dr. French and his staff fulfilled all of my expectations before and after my procedures.I will continue to recommend Dr French to all my associates for their cosmetic needs.
Having had surgery in the past by Dr. French, I knew what to expect from the consultation. I had actually had previous consults regarding the same surgery over the last few years, and each time, he was patient and answered all my questions thoroughly. It also helps that in some of his explanations you are able to visualize the procedure he is explaining.
Dr. French and his team/staff provided exceptional service. Each team member made me feel extremely comfortable and relaxed. A warm and inviting atmosphere, that made the experience worth the investment. I have recommended Dr. French to 3 friends and continue to speak his praises. Please continue the exceptional customer service. A great team and family atmosphere.
My friend referred me to Dr French and from the moment I walked into the office at CPS in Arlington, I was convinced this was the place for me. From the nurses, staff and Dr French himself, to the organized and efficient way my consult and procedure were explained and scheduled, I was a very happy patient. Thank you so much.
I was so impressed how great i felt after surgery. While in the operating room they made me so feel confortable, very warm, and relaxed. (They...meaning nurse, surgeon and anesthesiologists). 2nd day post op i still felt great! Great staff in Bethesda and Annandale offices.
The staff was friendly, open, and excellent to me every step of the way.
I have seen Dr Price for multiple surgeries over past 16 years & have referred all my friends to him as his work on me has produced great results
Everything went perfectly. From the consultation to the follow up visits, I couldn't be more satisfied. I had all my questioned answered and it was always easy to get hold of someone. The staff is fantastic and has always mad me feel comfortable. And I can't say enough for Dr. Rao's work. He is a fantastic doctor! I have my younger self back!
Everyone in Dr. Price's practice is knowledgeable and very pleasant. I couldn't ask For a more professional, friendly and caring experience.
This is the 3rd time that I have used Dr/ Price for a cosmetic procedure. I find him to be not only an excellent plastic surgeon, but also a kind and compassionate man. I have referred several other friends to him and they have also been extremely pleased with the office and of course, Dr. Price.
Each nurse I had was very knowledgeable about the procedure and answered my questions well. Dr. French was very good at putting me at ease from the first consultation. I'm very happy with the outcome!
Dr. French was just absolutely wonderful. He has magic in his hands. I feel like he has made me look so much better!
Dr French was incredibly professional throughout the whole experience. He answered any questions I had, and gave me all of the information one could want before such a surgery. I am so satisfied with my results. he did a fantastic job!
All results were as expected, the staff and facility was knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
Result = very natural face lift; dermabrasion most effective; chemical peel lovely I am feeling refreshed and relaxed, thank you!
Dr. French and his entire staff were with me every step of the way. From initial consultation, surgery, recovery and follow-up. They made me feel as if I was their only patient.
Everyone on staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The physician made me feel very comfortable and at ease with the procedure. The cost was way too much for me though. Maybe later.
I was highly satisfied. I think the practice and ALL the staff are superior. I opted to have surgery done elsewhere with a female dr. who I more closely related to.
Dr. French, his staff, the anesthesiologist, and the facility were all exceptional. I was extremely comfortable with no worries at all about my procedure. I felt safe in their hands and would not hesitate to go back again should I require further procedures. This team is truly the best!
Dr French is a highly experienced surgeonIn his field His staff is friendly and qualified to assist patients on all the steps thru their surgical experience
My results are amazing! Dr. French and staff were AMAZING! Dr. French and his nurse answered all of my questions and concerns. They made me feel at ease prior to surgery as well as the morning of surgery. I will definitely return to Dr. French's office if I have any cosmetic procedures in the future. He is a very kind and trustworthy surgeon, I will 100% recommend him to friends and family!
Dr. French was so understanding on our nervousness in getting surgery that he allowed us two consultations to ask additional questions and ease our minds. Extremely detailed and friendly! He truly care about his patients!
I'm a returning patient of Dr. price. He's done (3) procedures on me. Love the practice and staff's customer service.
The surgeon (Dr. French) is highly skilled and very helpful and clear in describing the surgery. The communication by both mail and phone calls was helpful- I highly recommend Dr. French and this practice and have already referred a friend who has received her consultation.Many thanks
From the the receptionist that sits in the first seat, to the nurse’s Tina and Mary Ann, to Sherrie; definitely Dr French. Everyone was excellent. Very knowledgeable, professional, pilot, courteous, all around top notch teamDr. French is so awesome. Excellent bedside manner, answered all questions 2 and 3x. Very patient, very warm and caring. I have recommended his practice to several friendsLove the team
I was satisfied, however, your fees were higher than other qualified surgeons. As a repeat customer, I was disappointed that you refused to give me a discount beyond a couple of hundred dollars on a $12,000 to $13,000 surgery. My family has had 3 major procedures done at your practice -- I expected a better price based on the loyalty we have shown you.
The staff, patient coordinator, and physician were professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and they answered all my questions. The physician took an interest in my concerns.
Both Dr. French and Sherrie were exceptional in providing information and quite re-assuring about the procedures. As a result, I have scheduled a lift with laser resurfacing.
Dr price is professional and good at what he does. Looks like I was born this way. The procedure has increased my confidence after having kids.
I received the est support and planningpossible. My pain has basically dimenised. I am just so happy with the results. Dr. Price was wonderful.
The care is exemplary, as is the surgical skill of Dr. French. I have so much more self confidence about my body & how I look.
Dr French and his staff are complete professionals! He is the only surgeon I trust. He's honest, knowledgeable, and truly cares for his patients. The nurses and Sherry are equally wonderful!
Dr. French is a great and skillful surgeon and has a great way with patients. I would highly recommend him to everyone.
I look ten years younger and my eyelids no longer sit down onto my eyes like loose hoods. . Everyone at the practice was very knowledgeable and kind and helpful with any and all of my concerns. The practice has excellent doctors, classically trained and very intelligent. Overall the experience was superlative!
There was minimal wait time and discussion was informative and casual. There was no pressure to schedule the procedure at that time.
Dr. French has changed my life and it has only been 4 days after my surgery. He is a sweet man who genuinely cares about his clients. Thank you Dr. French for giving me back my quality of life. [name]
I felt completely comfortable the minute I stepped into the office. Everyone has been so warm and helpful.
I simply cannot say enough good things about Dr. French and the staff. This has been a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend your office. I was also very impressed with the wonderful things the staff at Sibley Hospital had to say about Dr. French and his office staff.
Dr. French and the staff are extremely professional and welcoming. They make you feel comfortable and at ease. I can't imagine having another surgeon for any procedures.
The staff was pleasant and informative. Accommodating with dates and times. The surgeon is very friendly and clear about expectations.
Dr. Price and his staff were very accommodating with scheduling my procedure as well as thoroughly explaining the next steps leading to my surgery.
Dr. french if exactly what I was looking for, and everyone made me feel comfortable.
I was very happy with the information and communication. I've heard about other places not being so helpful. I feel better about myself. Clothes feel better. Confident.
Dr. French is well known and highly regarded in the medical community for his expertise and quality outcomes in the field of Plastic Surgery. Over the last ten years, I have returned to Dr. French for various cosmetic surgical procedures. I believe the high quality of staff performance and office operation is a direct reflection/expectation of Dr. French. He allows sufficient time to answer any questions or concerns regarding procedures, and is great to talk with in general. I do not appear tired, and in general look younger than my chronological age.
Knowledgeable and comforting staff, Dr. French is a very experienced and kind surgeon, clean attractive office, easy parking and access to Metro. Top drawer experience.
I was impressed that Dr Price was a minimalist --- and did NOT suggest I have more extensive plastic surgery, than what I was requesting (eye lid only).
I felt so comfortable from the moment I walked in to the moment I left. Every person I met was friendly and helpful and made me feel at ease. I thought Dr. French was so personable and make an awkward situation lighthearted and fun. My husband and I both felt confident in our decision to go with Dr. French immediately.
Dr. French was welcoming, pleasant and very optimistic about providing the results I needed. His staff was also very respectful and readily available to provide any information needed. I felt very comfortable in Dr. French's care. After my surgery, Dr. French made sure to check on me several times till my hospital stay was over. He made me feel like a part of his family rather than a patient.My results was more than I ever expected. Dr. French is a real artist and I am glad I found him. I feel like a new person, my issue was extremely complicated and I had no hope that would be resolved. My health is better and my confidence has sky rocketed.
Very professional service and I love results. Makes me be more confident in the way I look.
Dr. Samir Rao is a highly skilled and kind plastic surgeon. I wouldn't see anyone else. My liposuction result is nothing short of amazing.
Dr. Rao was very professional and amazing surgeon. he made me very comfortable being in his care. I am so glad I choose him and will go to him again if I ever need future work.
The nurses and the surgeon answered all my questions thoroughly. I spoke with many other women who had this same procedure, a few of them had Dr. French for their surgeon. The Dr. made me feel very comfortable about what would take place. They placed a scopolamine patch behind my ear to keep me from vomiting post-op. This made all the difference. My pain post op was less than I had expected. My recovery has been easy. The patient coordinator, Sherrie, was available to answer my questions prior to the procedure, as much as necessary.
Male Breast Reduction / Gynecomastia
Dr. Price did an excellent job with my son's gynecomastia procedure. His breast size was reduced tremendously. There is very little scarring. An adjustment was needed one year after the initial procedure. We are completely satisfied. My son feels more comfortable in his clothes.
Dr. Rao is very professional and gave me honest opinion on what was the best option for me. I am very confident in him doing my surgery. I will go back for more work if needed in the future. I love this office and it was a very comfortable atmosphere and the staff was very nice and welcoming. I had to change my date and Danielle worked with me to get it done. I am very excited and recommend this office to anyone looking for a great surgeon.
Dr French, with his extensive experience and thoughtful manner, inspires great confidence. I had no pre-op anxiety whatsoever. The process went smoothly and I always felt like my comfort and safety were top priority. While it is only one week post-surgery and too soon to judge the final result, I have had no issues or complications and have every reason to believe the outcome will be what I've hoped for.
The team made me feel at ease and very confident with my final decision. There was no pressure, no judgement. Very professional all around.
I felt as if the entire staff was more concerned about my comfort than confirming I would choose to schedule the procedure. Welcoming never selling.
Dr. French and his staff were truly very nice, genuine, interested in me and I immediately felt I could trust them with my surgery. I did not get that feeling from other places I went.
I have been a patient of Dr. Price and the Center for Plastic Surgery for more than 10 years. I continue to come back because the staff are personable and caring and Dr. Price provides me great results.
The doctor was highly recommended to me and also did a rhinoplasty on my daughter years ago.
Excellent staff and surgeon. I felt comfortable and important. They were highly professional
Dr. French is kind, warm, and caring and made me feel extremely comfortable from the moment I met him at the consultation. He was straightforward, knowledgeable, and never once made me feel pressured. The office was always available for me when I had questions before and after my surgery and I am THRILLED with the results of my breast augmentation. Dr. French has the best bedside manner ever!
Very professional staff and well run office, everyone is there to take care of the clients/patients and you feel like you are a priority. Very friendly and welcoming surgeon, kind nurses & staff.
Dr. Price is fantastic! He is an extremely knowledgable , talented surgeon who also has outstanding interpersonal skills. He listens! This is a rare combination that I greatly appreciated.The tone of his entire staff follows his lead. Every single person I dealt with was top notch. Reduced pressure and discomfort I was experiencing and improved the appearance of my breasts.
The surgeon and all staff at the center were friendly and informative. I felt very comfortable discussing my issues and desired outcomes. I will schedule my procedure with Dr. French.
The practice is highly organized with excellent & knowledgable staff and exemplary surgeon.
Dr. Wesley Price is very knowledgeable and reassuring. He is an artist and does very natural work; the minimum that is necessary and safe to do. It has been 5 weeks since the surgery, I feel great and have had only minimal discomfort. It was quite amazing, almost no bruises at all. I highly recommend him and his staff.
Was looking for facial skin tightening that could be done with a local and sedation. Was given no option to avoid muscle tightening and the expense of general anesthetic in a hospital setting.
The staff was friendly and helpful. Dr. French was wonderful and made me feel completely comfortable during initial meeting and going forward. I had no doubt in my mind that he was the one to do my breast reduction surgery. Very Happy!!!! Dr. French was willing to look and pictures I brought with me and he did his best to meet any goal I had. My neck and back feel so much better since the surgery.
Everyone, from the front desk to the surgeon, were knowledgable and friendly. No one seemed rushed or irritated with any of the questions I had. If surgery could be categorized as a wonderful experience, Dr. French and his staff made it one. The outcome has made me feel better about my profile.
The staff members were very knowledgeable and very nice. They made me feel comfortable and welcomed.
Dr Rao is a gentleman a fine gentleman alerted physician and is caring responsive and respectful
As a returning customer, I know Dr. French is the best. He is patient with his time, and made me feel like I had all the time in the world!
There was a personable atmosphere that was conveyed from the nurses to Dr. French. I felt I was in great hands
I consulted with other highly regarded surgeons such as Dr. French, but Dr. French and his staff were genuinely warm and made me feel welcome, respected and comfortable. His whole staff was very friendly and everyone seemed get along so well. One of his assistants told me she had been there for a long number of years and loved working for Dr. French. Dr. French listened to my concerns and not anything like the other dr. I had consulted with.He made me feel completely at ease and I trusted him.
The office in Fairfax runs like a well oiled machine"!Everyone from the receptionist to the gal that does the papers to sign are so friendly and make you feel so comfortable. I have been seeing Dr Price since 1996. Some of the same staff are there and everyone makes it a pleasant experience."
The doctor spent only 4 minutes with me. I indicated that I was interested in a laser procedure in my email, but he only mentioned microneedling. He did not explain why this was his only recommendation or mention any alternatives. He also did not provide details about complications or the timeline for recovery and results. I was just pushed to schedule another consultation at a far away location. Overall, the consultation was useless and a waste of my time because the doctor was too busy to explain anything to me
From beginning with the first visit through the surgery and afterward, the entire staff, both in the office and at the hospital, were professional, friendly, and caring. The results exceeded my expectations.
Everyone it was professional and very informative. Also I appreciate being respected by all of the staff
I could not have imagined receiving better treatment that I did at CPS. I've never undergone a major surgery but the staff and Dr. Price did a tremendous job in easing my fears. The customer service and patient care I received could not be topped. I felt like all of my concerns were addressed immediately which eased a lot of the stress associated with surgery. I could not have been more pleased with the procedures and the outcome. I absolutely love my results! The patient care was outstanding. They really did a great job of taking care of me and making me feel comfortable.
The all around experience was one of care, quality, and comfort. Dr. Price and his team took care of me from the moment I walked into their office and left me feeling as if my hand was being held through the entire process. This procedure has taken away uncomfortable back pain and left me more confident, athletic and all around happy.
Dr. French is a phenomenal surgeon and individual. And, the staff is stellar!
Dr. French has a wonderful demeanor; it says a lot about a doctor when members of his staff have been with him for as long as they have. Every member of the staff was wonderful!!
The surgeon's staff members are long-time employees which is always a good sign; the doctor has a warm and easy-going manner; lots of experience and well-credentialed. Very comfortable environment; affiliated with INOVA. Before and after pix were encouraging yet realistic.
Dr. Price and his staff are all highly qualified and totally professional!
I had to wait a bit longer than expected, but this was fine because the reason was explained.I would have liked a bit more information on the surgeon - although this was available on the website and was very helpful. I would have liked a bit more information on the overall consideration of aesthetics, various procedure options and why the one I was getting was selected, plus a bit more information on scarring and scar reduction approaches. However overall I felt confident in the surgeon plus he was readily available for my follow up questions so I am happy and reassured moving forward and have made an appointment for surgery.
Everyone at CPS from the front desk staff, Sherri, the nurses that helped me were amazing! Everyone was very helpful and knowledgeable.
The whole process went very well. This is surgery I have been wanting for many years and was blessed with the opportunity to do so at this time. Everyone treatment so well and was will to take as much time that was needed with the process. My thanks to all that was involved in this life changing experience!!
The medical care was great. Dr. French is excellent in his patient relationships..always has a smile and is kind and cares about the person. I highly recommend Dr. French and all his staff to anyone that will listen.. for the first time in a very long time I feel like I dont have to try to hide my baggy eyelids, as now they are perfect, open and look years younger !! I am one happy lady !!
Dr. French and his team provided me with excellent services before, during and after the surgery.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating when I needed to make an appointment. I was given realistic expectations of what could be done in surgery.
Dr. French was honest enough to say the practice doesn't do acne-scar procedures that do not require a long recovery time. He called me at home, which REALLY impressed me. I hope to schedule a small facelift sometime in the near future, depending on my work schedule.
Skill levels high at all staff positions, from reception desk to surgeons. Very personal & thorough attention from all staff.
1. Loved the results.2. Did not experience any nausea after surgery.3. Great staff. Very pleased with the results. Dr. French even corrected mistakes made by a former surgeon. The experience, immediately after surgery went so smoothly, and I was made so comfortable, it made for a stress free, pleasant experience. I would highly recommend Dr. French to anyone seeking cosmetic surgery, and feel assured my referral would be greatly appreciated, after any procedure by him, as well as his staff.
The staff was very helpful and interested in my situation. Upon meeting Dr. French, his enthusiasm and wonderful personality made me feel very much at ease! He was very thorough in explaining what would happen for the procedures I had in mind.Later, when I mentioned that I was planning on having a procedure done by Dr. French, I learned that other acquaintances of mine had also had procedures done by Dr. French and they raved about him! This reassured me in that my decision to have him work on my body was the right decision! He's awesome!!
Felt super prepared, knew I had everything I needed and it didn't feel like a hospital. Very comfortable! . Although I wanted a little more specific direction on sizing than I got, I loved my experience completely! The ease of surgery day because of all the prep and amazing staff was a breeze! I was not at all nervous in pre-op. Felt so comfortable, in a great comfy room, not cold or scared at all! And btw, I chose the perfect size on my own, so maybe that's why they didn't say much!
At 65 this was my first surgery. I felt relaxed and confident going in and am very happy with the results.
Going into this experience I was prepared for the office staff to be pretentious and obtrusive. But my experience was the exact opposite- staff was friendly and down to earth. They all took the time to explain the process to me and allowed me to make the final decisions on my own. Dr. French is just a sweetheart who makes you feel so comfortable in a less than desirable situation. No problems arose after the surgery but any concerns I had were put to rest during check ups. Since the surgery I feel like a complete woman. I never thought that a physical feature would have such an impact on my mental state but it did. I have such self confidence in who I am now and can fulfill everyday task now without disappointment or hassle.
I very much appreciated the professionalism and Dr. French's demeanor. Everyone on the staff was accommodating and friendly.
The surgeon did not have the best bedside manner. He didn't coddle me, but I appreciated that. He was friendly but not overbearing. He was confident and to the point and I felt he knew what he was doing. The December discount was very nice and contributed to my decision. The staff were very friendly. I felt welcomed and in good hands.
Dr Price is a true professional, he has a tremendous amount of experience, and does beautiful work- not to mention a great personality!!Diana, was wonderful to deal with, she answered all of my questions and was a huge help in getting my surgery scheduled.The Nurses were fantastic and a huge help in meeting all of my needs!
Dr. French is an excellent surgeon. Most importantly, he listens to what you want and cares about you.His whole staff is also wonderful and friendly and makes you feel welcome and comfortable.
Everyone at Sibley hospital and Dr. Price made me feel at ease. I was nervous about the surgery initially. Everyone was very kind and professional. From beginning to end I was treated with the best care. My results exceeded my expectations. There was very minimal scaring and the healing process was not as long as others that used other practices experienced.
The office and surgical suite are very nice. The doctor and his staff couldn't have been nicer, more available or more knowledgeable about my procedure. They set detailed and realistic expectations.
Surgeon retook an interest in me and explained thoroughly what he would do and my options
On time, friendly, informative, calm, dates available and acceptable office areas.
Dr. Price was always in a rush , I felt as if he wanted to spend as little time in the room as possible. When I was having my stitches removed , the nurse said that they all like to remove Dr.Prices stitches because they are big and easy to get out. Unlike Dr. French who uses small stitches. Made me wish I had done more research and used someone who did small stiches!! Maybe that is why I have such big scars behind my ears. Also, after surgery I wish I had had more help and suggestions of how to care for the incisions and now the scars. I had to google it!!!!
I'm very pleased with the outcome. (The only negative is that it was a very expensive procedure, including loss of income during recovery for a week.) . The only thing that I am possibly dissatisfied with is that I have a bill from Johns Hopkins for more than $3,000. I hope that is a mistake and I'm following up with them. If it turns out I owe them $3,000, I will be highly dissatisfied for the incorrect information provided to me about my final out of pocket cost. I am awaiting a response from JH.
The staff was very knowledgeable and very helpful and made me feel comfortable during my consultation. Dr. French was excellent in explaining the procedure and the possible complications of the surgery. Dr. French seemed genuinely concerned with a successful outcome of the surgery.
I was referred by my sister in law who had great results with Dr. Price. The staff and Dr. Price were professional, efficient, informative and friendly. I felt very comfortable with scheduling the procedure because of how well the consultation went.
Dr. French made me feel very comfortable before and after the procedure. His staff is very welcoming. The follow up appointments have been convenient. I have already recommended Dr. French to my friends. The results were just as Dr. French assured me they would be. I'm totally confident with his professional skills, and I love his warm, friendly manner.
I am more pleased than I expected with the results of my surgery. The staff were extremely professional and made me feel comfortable. The office has a great atmosphere .
Everything about my experience was excellent. I was immediately put at ease by Diana. And once meeting The doctor the feeling continued. 2 weeks post-op I am so thankful to have found the practice.
All staff member from the office personnel to nurses, physician and coordinator were friendly and helpful. Very quick to get back to me when I had questions. Very informative regarding literature on what to expect following procedure.
They are the best from start to finishIt is expensive or I would no more with fillers
All of the staff members at CPS were friendly, informative & accommodating. They helped me finance my procedure, and also helped me find a nursing service to take me home afterwards. I had a breast augmentation, and Dr. Price did a fantastic job. The entire staff is truly exceptional.
I was informed and well briefed of the procedure I was planning to have by the Doctor, the Coordinator and the Nurse. The Doctor inspired me lots of confidence.
From the time you walk in the door for your consultation until you leave with your procedure booked, they make you feel right at home. The entire staff is friendly, professional, and go above and beyond to answer any questions you may have. They are also happy to schedule as many follow up visits as necessary for you to feel comfortable.
The way my face is healing so nicely, in particular my neck. . I believe I have very high standards, so we were a good match as I believe your practice also has high standards.
This was my second procedure with CPS and they are absolutely awesome. Highly recommend for a great experience.
I had never had surgery before and Dr. Price and the staff made me feel at ease. I had a friend who went to Dr. Price and she was highly satisfied with the practice and the results. Everybody is highly professional and responsive. They went out of ther way to accommodate my schedule since I do not live in the area. I had several contacts with Mary Ann Shapiro who is extreme helpful and friendly.
Vaginal Rejuvenation / Tightening
The staff - really, everyone has been wonderful, repeatedly. Everyone on staff has been completely delightful - kind, understanding, encouraging, informative. Thank you!
I was very nervous when I first came through the door the staff and surgeon made me feel comfortable and I was able to see that what I was experiencing was very common with other women. I was deeply impressed
Dr. Rao and his staff were highly professional and knowledgeable. I felt well cared for during my visits and communications with the office.
The show of being refined and tasteful or elaborately made. This surgery performed by Dr. French was exquisite. MY results thus far 139 pounds. Thank you again for such fantastic techniqes.
Undergoing this procedure has changed my life in such a positive way. I am confident, I look better in my clothes, and I look proportioned. When I leave home I feel sexy. I feel noticeable, and I physically feel lighter. If I had to do it all again...I would. The staff as well as the surgeon was very polite and helpful. They provided me with all information needed before and after surgery. My surgeon was very respectful and made me feel comfortable with the procedure being performed. He exceeded my expectations! I now feel confident in myself and my body. I was very nervous about the procedure but my team ensured me that everything will be fine. I am glad that I trusted them!
All the staff were very friendly and made me feel comfortable. Their communication of the procedure and what to expect were great. Dr French was one of the best medicalProfessionals I have ever been involved with and I would highly recommend him to anyone. He's is both professional and friendly and makes the patient feel at ease and comfortable.
Dr. French and everyone in the office were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I couldn't have asked for anything more from the experience.
Dr. Rao is a very professional and knows what he's doing. He's nice, listens to your needs, and explains exactly what your turnout will be. Mine was exactly as he said. He's staff is sweet and always there to answer your calls and questions with a smile as is Dr. Rao. I highly recommend Dr. Rao and his staff to anyone considering any type of procedure. It's a free consultation so try him and see for yourself, I know you'll love him too. It gave me my self esteem back. I had the fat transfer with the Brazilian butt lift. It turned out exactly the way Dr. Rao said it was going to.
I need more information before I am able to decide on the surgery, and I would like to meet again with the surgeon for further questions I have now that I've given our first meeting some thought. I wasn't informed of that possibility.
Dr. Price is clearly top of his field. He gave very clear answers to my questions, explained the risks and benefits of the procedure, and laid out a very thorough picture what I could expect pre and post surgery. His staff was kind, knowledgeable, and prompt. The atmosphere of the office is positive and warm; you can tell the staff enjoys working there. His patient coordinator, Diana, handled the non-medical aspects of the consultation with great attention and follow through. She handled the insurance claims and completely freed me of the the pre-surgery insurance approval process. She was always quick to answer my emails or return my calls made sure I was taken care of.
Felt like my doctor cared about me and my surgical outcome. . Excellent doctor, well-trained and caring staff.
No surprises. Everything went as explained. Love the results. Everyone in office was a pleasure.
Short-Term Results: I have a girlish" figure again.Long-Term Results: Who knows what will happen with a "girlish figure" again?". All associates highly enjoy their profession, it shows in everything they do.
Very fast appointment scheduling. Nice office. Very organized. Ease of scheduling. Surgical coordinator was easy to contact.
Exercise has become easier. Self image has improved along with increased self confidence. The staff were extremely kind and professional throughout the whole process from start to finish. All questions were answered thoroughly. Dr. French is a warm person who made us feel as if he had all the time in the world to spend with us. He made sure that we understand the process of the surgery and recovery. I would highly recommend Dr. French!
Everything was made easy for me, and it was all over quickly! Dr. French was very caring and informative; his asst., Marianne, gave me lots of info and answered all my questions; the anesthesiologist was very thorough. Most of the staff was warm and friendly, and very efficient.
Staff and doctor were reassuring. Understood and were flexible about procedure dates.
I look younger now. . Dr French was wonderful. He is a very warm and caring Doctor.
CPS (Dr. Price) was recommended to me by a friend who had reconstructive breast surgery after cancer. She was highly pleased with him and he has now done a breast reduction for her granddaughter. Dr. Price is thorough, explains in detail what the procedure will entail, does as many follow up visits as necessary. The staff is wonderful - always helpful, courteous, and professional. I have used CPS for several procedures, not all invasive. They are just the best.
The physician was kind, gentle, knowledgeable, and his patient coordinator was easy to relate to and very thorough. I decided to go with another physician, but my experience he was excellent. He was definitely a top choice.
The overall friendliness and the professional manner in which everything was handled. I particularly enjoy speaking with the patient coordinator! She is superb at putting me at ease regarding any doubts or concerns!
Dr. French is one of the best doctors I have ever had. I am so grateful he was highly recommended to me by another patient and a previous employee for his surgical expertise. All members of his team were so supportive and professional. I too recommend Dr. James French highly. The breast reduction has improved my posture and confidence. It has even helped with my self esteem.
The single best thing about the surgical procedure was the outcome, followed closely by the overall friendliness and professional competent of office personnel - from surgeon to receptionist. I was highly satisfied with my experience for the following reasons: the thoroughness and frequent communications of the patient coordinator, the perceived competence and bedside manner of the surgeon (Dr. Jim French), the timeliness and friendliness of the nursing staff and other staff members, the outcome of the surgery, the overall professional yet friendly climate of the facility, etc. Superb!
Dr. Roa was extremely knowledgable & professional. He explained the procedure & educated me on what would work for me & what would not work for me. I had my tummy tuck & liposuction on 6/22/16 & am very happy & overly satisfied with my results. The staff were wonderful & made me feelComfortable at all times
I wish Dr. Price spent more time with me as the patient, all of the surgery info I had was from the patient coordinator and I spent less than 3 minutes talking with Dr. Price.
Dr. French has a wonderful bedside manner. He listens to patients concerns and shares his opinion. He is honest and doesn't do a procedure that doesn't need to be done. I didn't feel rushed when speaking with him. He will explain things as many times as you need to understand. I felt he wanted me to have a good result and to be healthy.The staff is friendly and helpful. The nurses have a good bedside manner and didn't make me feel self conscious or uncomfortable.
In hind-sight, I would have liked and expected some method of showing me my own before and after appearance. So I plan to ask to meet with the doctor again to try to get a better idea of what I will look like after. That will help me decide if I'm going to do it.Also, I waited longer than I'd like for the doctor to come into the office once I was in a room.
Dr French was open for discussion and thoroughly explained my options
I loved Dr. French's enthusiasm and he answered every question I had so thoroughly. It really made me trust in his as my doctor and I booked my appointment immediately after our consultation.
Dr. French did my tummy tuck many years ago and I was unequivocally pleased, which is why I returned to his to discuss other procedures.
Everyone on the staff was extremely friendly and caring. I felt as though everyone on staff (office and surgical staff) were really interested on my recovery and answered all questions that I had. I am really pleased with the overall experience and although I am currently swollen and bruised, I can already see satisfactory results and have no regrets that I followed through with the surgery after consultation.
The meeting with Diana was very friendly and helpful.Positive short interaction with Dr. Price made the choice easy.
I've had Dr. French perform a surgery on me over 11 years ago and have full faith in him. As soon as my rental house sells, I will schedule my surgery :)
The only thing that I was not satisfied with was the way the person that called me into the consultation treated me or escorted me into the room. She opened the door to the waiting room, yelled my name and as I started walking to the inside area, she walked way in front of me , instead of waiting for me to walk in together. It was very different greet and approach from the other doctors I visited. Dr. Rao was great tho, very impressed with him!
My facelift has given me my confidence back. It has erased years off my face -- some have said 20 years (truly). I feel and look younger and am enjoying getting up in the morning and putting on a little makeup, fixing my hair and looking forward to the day. Diana was essential to my feeling of comfort prior and after the surgery. Dr. Price did a beautiful surgery. I am very pleased with the outcome and friends have complimented me over and over again. I felt very comfortable with my overall experience prior, during and after surgery. I will certainly have any cosmetic surgery done by Dr. Price in the future.
Beautiful results with my bbl with Dr Rao, I love my improved shape and owe it to this surgeon and the fantastic team at CPS!
I am not highly satisfied because I haven't had the procedure yet. After I have the procedure and see the results I can better assess the situation at that time.Though I am very excited about having the cool sculpting procedure later this month.
The way I look under my eyes. . 1. Dr. Rao is a fantastic surgeon who is highly skilled, knowledgeable, professional and has a fantastic bedside manner. He does not hesitate to tell you if a certain procedure really will not benefit you. I recommend him frequently and the feedback has been great. 2. The nurses, aestheticians and entire office staff are equally fabulous. Knowledgeable, friendly and professional. They clearly understand the procedures, products and all that is done in that office. You can count on them to always be helpful and make you comfortable. I highly recommend this office without any hesitation.
My lips, love my new full plumped lips. They look very natural! If you are considering injections Dr. Rao is the one you want! Dr. Rao and his staff are wonderful. I traveled from the Boston area to have my procedures done by Dr. Rao and he was very accommodating, and fit my schedule. He and his staff are quite knowledgeable and make themselves readily available before during and after the surgery. I elected to add on the the procedures I originally discussed with Dr. Rao and his office was very responsive to my inquiries about additional work. I am super pleased with the results, and so glad I had the procedures done. I visited several doctors to inquire about the procedures and as soon as I met Dr. Rao and his staff I was convinced he was the surgeon for me. I highly recommend him, he is a very skilled surgeon and a very kind, considerate man.
Finally havng a flat abdomen is terrific. Tied with my huge vertical scar magically d i s s a p p e a r. The experience and the results were good. Dr. Rao, Mary, and Heidi were all great. I'm glad I had the procedure.
Dr French is very professional and nice, he also make me really comfortable about the procedure
Dr. French has performed other surgeries on me and he is the best surgeon for me. We have other financial obligations at this time, and I plan to have the surgery in the next 6 months.
I have had a prior procedure 7 years ago with Dr. Price, and I LOVE him! My experience was fantastic, with virtually no pain and a great result. I've referred Dr. Price to all of my friends, two of whom have had procedures with him as well. I am a retired teacher and saved my tutoring money for 10 years to pay for my first procedure. I thought I was ready for 'phase 2', but it was about $2,000 more than I've saved up this time, so it looks like I'll have to wait a bit. Excited to have the procedure with Dr. Price as soon as I'm able.
Everything was handled professionally. The information was explained well and clearly. The room was very comfortable and conducive to talking and the consultation/examination. It didn't feel like a typical doctor's office.
The results are great! Dr. Rao is a highly effective surgeon. He is also very personable. I felt very comfortable with him doing my procedure and would not hesitate to go back to him if I want any other procedures. He is great.
I had a previous surgery and paid for the whole procedure. After some days I realized not all the areas had been liposuctioned (back fat) on informing the office that i wanted to see the doctor to figure out what to do, I was made to wait over an hour to see the doctor, and a few minutes into the visit a nurse came and pretended he was called away.. not at all what i had experienced previously or expected i was then informed I had to pay for anesthesia for the correction. The doctor did a great job with my back, but the back fat that i went for is still visible. I did not do anything wrong, i never write negative reviews, and the only reason I am doing so, is the treatment i received from the staff when i pointed out the mistake was very unfair, they were very cold and unfriendly the exact opposite of my first visit.
How I look now ! . The outcome of the surgery is great. I am so happy with how I look. Dr French was very professional, listened to my concerns and is a great surgeon
Felt doctor was straightforward and understood my needs. Patient consult took additional time to really answer questions. Will schedule surgery in future.
Dr Price and his staff were extremely supportive and informative throughout the whole process. Great results
Dr. French is a fantastic surgeon. He also has great social skills. We are both from the South.
Much more comfortable. Clothes fit better. Very satisfied with results. Surgeon, staff, and hospital were all fantastic. All went as told including the small wound problem.
The outcome! I could not be happier with the outcome! I really felt like Dr. Price took the time to understand exactly what I wanted. He made suggestions but ultimately understood what I wanted to helped me achieve that!
I look great!!! I felt comfortable from the time I signed in, through surgery to follow up visits. Doctor was direct, easy to talk too & patient. Information was clear regarding hospital visit. Office staff were cheerful & professional. I have already recommended Dr. Price to a friend!!!
there was never any pressure from any staff member and every one in the office seemed to really care about my recovery and satisfaction. the surgery is major and it took me awhile to adjust my thinking as to the discomfort i experienced in recovery. but that being said i could not be any happier with my decision to proceed with cps.
This is my third time coming to Dr. Price for a cosmetic procedure. The staff at the CPS are amazing. Always helpful and very kind! I would specifically like to thank Diana Hann, Surgical Coordinator, for her patience, kindness and her thoughtfulness as I moved through this past surgical procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Price and CPS if you are thinking about having any cosmetic procedure.
Everyone made me feel very comfortable throughout. I was very impressed with Dr. Price and his staff. They were all friendly helpful and made the experience for me a pleasure. I was very happy with my procedure, and I have no reservation about referring doctor price to any of my friends or family members.
the first surgery I waited in the waiting room for sbout an hour before someone told me what was going on and they said we didn't know you were here. although I arrived onto as NC said I was here. the my surgery was 2 hours late and the doctor did an awful job. I could tell right away how unevendors and unskilled the work was. then on the second surgery, I had to wait an hour maybe longer for the an anestician to show and she didn't refund any money although it was a short surgery. the doctor improved my nose but still isn't right. after the first surgery I cried and my friends told me my nose looked awful.
Fabulous result, but surgery itself wasn't particularly traumatic. Pleased on every level.
I was very surprised that I could see some improvement immediately following the procedure and by the next day I could see even more. Dr. Rao is a highly skilled surgeon with a phenomenal bedside manner so I felt reassured and comfortable throughout the procedure. He was assisted by Erin who is extremely knowledgeable as well as comforting, she also has a fantastic bedside manner. Looking forward to the results getting better and better each day.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Dr. French was very nice, informative and professionalDr. French was referred to me by a close friend
I lost 100 pounds 13 years ago and would like to have an abdominoplasty. I met with Dr. French and was very impressed with his knowledge and his demeanor - he made me feel very comfortable and at ease. I plan to schedule my surgery for fall 2016.
I was always very insecure about my nose. I am now very happy with my appearance and have a confidence I didn't have before. The staff there are all extremely helpful from the patient coordinator (Diana Haan), the nurse, anesthesiologist, surgeon, etc...I have been very well informed, and taken very good care of. The facility is always clean and I always feel that i'm in good hands.
Dr. French is the warmest, most understanding, talented surgeon who put me completely at ease and responded in detail to every question, regardless of how minor or insignificant. The surgery could not have gone more smoothly, my recovery was very quick and without any pain and I believe the results are exceptional. The entire staff was helpful, accommodating from all standpoints (helping with insurance, surgical bra fitting, what to expect, how to deal with scars etc) and generally kind and encouraging. The experience from start to finish was 5 stars! Dr. French has hands of gold!!!!
Available info on credentials of the surgeon; surgery preparation materials provided; thoroughness of discussions and answers to my questions during consultation; info on financing; general kindness and competency of all staff.
I was very comfortable with Dr French as my surgeon. And love the kind caring attention I received from Erin Newsome afterwards
The procedure has made me feel happy and confident with myself and body. From the moment I decided I was going through with my procedure I was so glad I chose to go through this experience with CPS. From Dr Price himself to his surgical coordinator Diana and all of the nurses they were all so sweet and accommodating. They made me feel at home and I found that very important. From the beginning of the experience until the end they were very helpful. Even at the hospital itself I felt so taken care of and in great hands. The anesthesiologist who worked with me could not have been better and I highly recommend the same team that worked on me to work on anyone who goes through breast aug with CPS
This surgery has not changed my life but I look closer to how I feel (40) instead of my actual years...62. That was all I wanted...to look as good as I felt! Excellant surgeon, very helpful and friendly nursing staff at Dr. French's offices, provided excellent pre-op information, everything proceed as anticipated...I am extremely pleased with the result although I hope the swelling that I have in my face continues to subside!
Very impressed with the professionalism of all staff. Anticipated questions before they were asked. Very thorough!
Dr. French is the best! He took his time to understand what I wanted to have done and explained everything in detail. He genuinely seems to care about his patients. I also appreciate all the staff, as they really made me feel welcome and at ease with my procedure. I have already recommended friends to Dr. French and CPS!
Great experience. Extremely pleased with the outcome! Dr. French is amazing!
CPS staff is quietly efficient and respectful of patient privacy, which is huge with me. Dr. French does wonderful work and I would have gone to him regardless, but it was a bonus to have such a fine experience with his staff.
I think Dr. Price provided what I expected and bargained for. I was very satisfied with the entire experience.
I felt the physician was very well educated and experienced in breast augmentation surgical procedures. I also felt he was young enough to have mastered the latest surgical techniques in training at well known teaching hospitals and really eager to do the best he can for the patients that he sees as he is growing his practice.
I had twice surgeries with Doctor Price I'm very satisfied with both surgeries .Also my Daughter had her noise done Dr Price did a fantasic job !! I'm very pleased The staff is the best ! Especially Dianna I really recommend Dr Price He is The Best !!
