from start to finish everyone in the office could not have been nicer, more accommodating and considerate. The results are natural and I am thrilled. I am still recovering and know if I am unhappy with any aspect of the end result, the doctor will tweek whatever is necessary. I am planning on returning in the future to retune as needed and will and am happy to share the doctor with all my friends! It was easy and painless and I love the results!
All the staff including the surgeon were invested as well as interested in my well being, ensuring that I gain the best results possible. Every question was answered even before I asked. From all the talks I had with my mother, has gotten her interested as well, for other procedures. This is a huge step for me and I want to know everything possible so that I am comfortable every step of the way.
Dr T made me feel very comfortable. I spoke with 3 office staff before I made the appt and all were very informative and did not make me feel rushed like another office I called. I had to meet Dr T in order to see if he gave off good energy and he did.
I came into the consultation already knowing what I want and how I wanted to go about the procedure. I was given an estimate price when I had sent out the email about my interest and consultation. Also, what helped alot was all the information provided on the website. Pretty much answered all my questions and helped me make a choice prior to the consultation which not only saved me time, but you guys as well. Another thing I really enjoyed was the comfortable setting and the friendly staff.
I’ve had 2 breast augmentations and consulted with tons of doctors. My first two experiences were less than stellar. I thought it was impossible to have a successful surgery. Dr teitelbaum was compassionate, listened, gave me all options and was very clear about results. He and His staff called me pre and post surgery. I am so happy with my results! I could not be happier.
Doctor and staff are friendly and professional. I have exactly what I want which are full natural looking breasts. I couldn't be a happier. His staff is wonderful, especially April who I interacted with the most. Surgery was surprisingly easy as was recovery
Everyone in this practice is so kind and caring. I really have felt taken care of here. I love that I can email April or Vicki so easily and they are so quick to get back to me on a question. Truly it has been a great experience, and I am so grateful. Thank you so much. X
Answered all my questions thoroughly as there were wrong questions. Trust worthy and honest and never pushed something on me that I didn’t want or need
Great staff, made me feel comfortable, Dr. T really listened to all my concerns, great follow up post-op
The staff was warm and friendly and treated me with genuine respect. The pre-op procedures were explained to me clearly and carefully. When I had to change the date of the procedure at the last minute due to a family emergency, they were incredibly responsive and helpful. I was in his office numerous times because of the minor post-op infection I had, and each time there was virtually no wait to see Dr. T, and he made sure that I kept coming back until the problem was resolved.
Surgery especially plastic is not easy, this was my first time doing any type of surgery, at first i was so scared and had doubts but after meeting the doc and the team i felt so calm about it all and realized this is the right decision with the right doctor
the doctor and staff were very lovely and I thought answered questions well. I think we will work with them
Staff was wonderful, I like Dr. Teitelbaum very much and felt in good hands the whole time. Vickie was great to work with as well. reducing vey large breasts and lifting them back up to where they belong might be the most satisfying surgery ever, love the results.
Amazing nurses, the surgeon as well as the anesthesiologist were very approachable and personable.
highly satisfied with doctor's credentials, surgical expertise and aesthetics of before and after pictures. in comparison to 5 consultations i had with other doctors, the consultation i had with dr. teitelbaum was the least informative. he was friendly and comforting and answered all my questions but in comparison, other doctors went over a specific agenda and were very informative about the questions i had over the procedure - their answers covered general information as well as specific answers to why he/she personally suggests a certain method at their practice. it did not feel like dr. teitelbaum was trying to 'sell' me anything, whereas other doctors felt like they were overselling for me to choose them as their doctor. when i asked a question that turned out to be a myth, he was quick to shut down what i had asked and said it was a myth without explaining why. after i did some research, turns out he was right - i didn't doubt his answer because i had read so much about his expertise as a leader in his field but it would have been comforting to have him explain the reasons to me. other concerns were that reviews suggested he was arrogant. i didnt particularly find this but i guess the best doctors never have to sell their practice and will always have patients at their door so i dont mind this attitude as long as i am getting the doctor that is best at what he does.
Dr. Teitelbaum did an amazing job and his entire staff are something any office would envy. I always felt welcome and that any question not matter how small was answered with respect and quickly. My results have been incredible. I had very little pain and my recovery was easier than I had mentally prepared myself for. His use of new techniques really pays off!
I came for a breast reduction. I was pushed into liposuction and a lift on one side instead. This did not reduce my breast size, only removed their fullness. I developed a 4 month inflammation reaction from the invasive liposuction. After many visits, I had a normal reduction procedure 18 months later at additional cost. My very asymmetrical larger breast was reduced so much that it is now very much smaller than my other breast which he was trying to match in size. The nipple is located higher, and is smaller, and the two breasts are very unmatched. My scars are large and purple and unsightly. I now wear padded bras to try to make my breasts look symmetrical. I feel somewhat disfigured.
I was highly satisfied because I liked and trusted Dr. Teitelbaum and thought he did a great job with my surgery. I trusted his sense of aesthetics, and thought he did a great job of communicating, using metaphors that really helped me understand what to expect, and what was possible to achieve given my anatomy etc. He was very friendly and patient, I liked his office, and I thought all of the written materials were thorough and clear (maybe too thorough though, they were overwhelming and sometimes repetitive, but better to have too much info than not enough of course!). I felt very comfortable going into surgery in terms of knowing I'd be in great hands physically with Dr. Teitelbaum and the medical staff (nurse, anesthesiologist etc). I did *not* have a great experience with his office staff leading up to the surgery, to the point where it weighed on me on the morning of the surgery, but I felt my overall rating should reflect my actual experience with the doctor and the actual results of my surgery (which are beautiful so far). The patient coordinator was very hard to reach, never seemed to remember who I was or what my circumstances were, and overall not super friendly or helpful. I ended up running almost all of my pre-op issues and questions through my nurse, even the non-medical ones, because she was so nice and efficient. The other issue with staff was that I was asked by the anesthesiologist to come in significantly earlier than my originally estimated call time (which was fine) but when I got there in the morning there was no one at the front desk, and when the front desk receptionist came out she clearly wasn't expecting me and blankly asked who I was and what I was there for. There had been a miscommunication on their end, and they did start doing intake stuff pretty quickly after that, but there was never a moment where she acknowledged or apologized that they hadn't been prepared for whatever reason for my assigned arrival time. Not a great way to start your surgery day.
Actually i were highly satisfied with my surgery experience. i felt comfortable with recovery process and happy with natural result. There is one thing i would like the practice to spend a little time to a patient during follow up visits.
I appreciated that my concerns as a patient were taken into account. I also felt that I was able to be well informed via the surgical patient packet which had a lot of useful information to let me know what to expect before, during, and after my surgery. I feel my overall results are exactly what I was hoping for and I am so happy that I chose this office.
Staff and Doctor were outstanding. Surgery results were very good with no problems. More comfortable in my own skin.
The best experience is being able to talk with the doctor and then see what he recommends on the screen as well as try on the implant. You get the full experience and really get to understand how your body will look and feel. . I always felt comfortable throughout the whole experience. I was given lots of information about what to expect whether it was the booklet provided or the reading in the website. The Doctor listened to all my concerns as well as ensured that I put the best looking implant in. Overall I feel and look amazing. My breast look natural and not overdone. I really appreciate the attention to detail to get my breats to look they do.
The whole experience was incredible. Every one of the staff was professional, helpful, caring, and encouraging. The atmosphere in the office was calm and comforting and friendly.The day of my surgery, I was excited but calm and not the least bit nervous. It took me almost eight years to lose the weight, and I thought about having the surgery for a very long time. I am absolutely thrilled with the result and really happy that I had the surgery done. I feel so much better about myself and how I look.
The surgeon was knowledgeable, is highly qualified, made me feel comfortable and I liked the look of his prior work on other patients.
dr t is always a joy, from his demeanor to his comprehensive answers to my questions. his staff are also very knowledgeable and friendly. I look forward to visits in his office!
I could tell that Dr Teitelbaum and Nurse April not only knew what they were talking about, but that they were genuinely interested in my needs, wants, and overall satisfaction. Everyone I encountered was incredibly friendly and I'm so excited for my surgery!
The surgeon and staff was amazing! They answered all my questions thoroughly. I walked out feeling 100% confident that I made the right decision moving forward with my surgery.
I did not feel rushed to make a decision to proceed with surgery following my consultation; I left office visits feeling very informed regarding pros and cons of procedures; the scheduling team was extremely helpful and patient with me in arranging the surgery; all of the staff were extremely kind and helpful, supportive in every way; surgery day was incredibly relaxing due to staff's kind & upbeat demeanor as well as willingness to answer every question; pain management was outstanding-- I was able to stop taking prescription pain relievers 2-3 days later; the aftercare facility (across the street from office) was outstanding in its support, attention and care taking ( pain management, moving around, answering questions) and the facilities were extremely relaxing including the size of the room and bed, lighting, television, quiet; staff has continued to be extremely responsive and available to answer questions and see me (now months later); surgeon responded to me via text during the weekend following my surgery; I am very pleased with the results of my surgery so far! The results of my procedure are very satisfying. I feel better about my image and am enjoying how that feels, I am more comfortable (physically) as a result of the surgery; I can wear clothing I haven't been able to (and thought I NEVER would again) since before my children; I feel like myself again after over a decade as a result of the changes to my body following surgery.
Dr. Tietelbaum takes the time to answer all questions and address any concerns you have about the surgery. In addition, I had other questions that were addressed promptly by the office staff via email. The office is very professional and easy to work with. Had no problems when scheduling the surgery.
I spent three years researching the best in the business. It was a great effort to travel to LA from London given I’m a business owner and mother of three. I am so pleased I chose Dr T. I couldn’t be more pleased. I had three surgeries in one trip which was frightening but I was so taken care of, both during, after my procedudes. All my concerns were listened to with empathy and I would wholly recommend Steve and his team to friends and family. No question or worry was too much trouble and my results are outstandingly great. The follow up care has exceeded my expectations. Steve is a perfectionist.
Everything was great besides price, I really like the surgeon, he was the first one I met so I need it to get other opinions and process all the information before I move forward.
My Brest augmentation results are absolutely stunning.Dr. Teitelbaum made my breast look the same copy I use to have when I was 19 years old. Identical proportions and shape. Brilliant. He is a total Genius!A total rejuvenation.Best Surgeron in the world. Perfection
Dr. T. and his staff were very professional throughout my whole experience! Very Satisfied with my outcome. I spent quite a few months researching Drs. and I'm so glad I did! I plan to have another procedure with the same Dr. as soon as my body heals. When I look in the mirror I'm no longer reminded of my four pregnancy's! No sagging belly or loose skin!I love my flat stomach. I can now button my pants!!
The staff was incredibly friendly and did not make the consultation feel weird. Dr was extremely nice and answered all questions and gave a thorough examination to give me the best recommendations for my size. I liked the fact that I could see what I would look like on the computer as well as trybon some inoants to ensure I liked what I was getting. Overall everyone gave me the confidence I was making the right decision. I couldn't imagine going to anyone else.
The surgeon has no consideration for the patient's preferences and based his recommendations primarily on his aesthetic preferences.
Staff was friendly and accommodating. They made the process very easy and comfortable. I was never pressured into getting a larger size, which I appreciated. My results are very natural, which is what I was looking for.
The results of the procedure are perfection. I couldn't have imagined better results. Dr T and his staff are very supportive and available by cell 24/7. I feel confident and pretty
Dr. Teitelbaum is so talented and trustworthy! I had total confidence in him. The result is fantastic!! My surgical result is amazing and I no longer need to wear a bra.
Great communication. Loved the information packet. Great communication with Nurse Karen. She was outstanding. Butter than expected on a caring level. More confident. Can walk into any bra shop and get an in stock bra. All styles work for me now. Have more of a woman shape to my body. Love my results and love my body. Should have done it sooner!!
Dr was attentive responsive, sensitive to my situation and helped me feel relaxed in spite of the difficulty my body was having. Nurse was also very warm caring assuring and attentive In every way. I feel free . I feel a confidence and no longer ashamed of this part of my body. I feel more youthful and more feminine. Movement and n art and athletics has new freedom
My doctor and staff were very friendly and professional. All my questions were answered and did not pressure or rush me into any decisions. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my surgery and the staff was available to me during my recovery. My nurse coordinator was very helpful in gathering my pre op labs and h&p from my primary doctor.
Pre surgery: communication was prompt. Vicki was very informative and quick in responding to any questions or concerns I my have had. She was also very friendly. Information package was very helpful and detailed.Surgery: Dr. Teitelbaum was warm, reassuring, confident and knowledgable. He has excellent bedside manner and did an amazing job on my breast augmentation. My breasts are even and the scars are in a perfect location, small and thin. I did feel a bit rushed to leave the office during my transfer to serenity but I was happy once I arrived and was able to sleep in a comfortable bed. Post recovery: My healing time was normal and any concerns I had were promptly responded to by my post operative nurse. As an international client, I felt very comfortable and confident traveling to see Dr. Teitelbaum. The main reason I chose him over thee doctors was because he did an under breast incision, his experience and expertise with gummy breast implant and Tummy tucks. I would recommend providing clients with the Canadian names of the medication required as I could not find the bacteria killing skin soap here in Canada. My breasts are perfect and exactly what I asked for. The healing time stated was exactly what I experienced. I am back to being physically active and everything is healing wonderfully. Dr. Teitelbaum was also very nice and easy to speak with.
Most importantly, I liked the surgeon. I was interested in a particular surgery which he did not recommend. He explained why is a thoughtful and honest manner. I then suggested a tummy tuck - which he thought was warranted. I will schedule it in the next 6 months, as my scheduled permits. Additionally, his support staff was wonderful.
The moment Dr. Teitelbaum came into the exam room, he was very friendly and professional. I felt totally comfortable. He asked questions and listened to my answers and everything I had to say and ask. The procedure I was asking about turned out to not be what I really need. Dr. Teitelbaum explained in detail what really needed to be done and what he would do. He showed me what was needed and explained everything. By the end of the consultation, I felt totally comfortable and confidant that I would only see him for the surgery. I have scheduled my surgery for October.
Excellent recovery and results No more padded bras more freedom in my dress and confidence
Experience was positive, we were well treated, explanations were clear, appointment was on time.
Dr. T is extremely knowledgeable. I only wished he wasn't late to the consultation and kept coming in and out b/t my time at the basic examination and time trying on the implants. Karen is great and helpful, but I'm more confident in answers from my surgeon, not the RN. It was as if he had multiple patients or appointments today tend to. To top it off, this is a paid consultation, I was expecting to have a sit down consultation for an hour where he could go over all the questions I had written down.
The prior consultation I had with another highly qualified doctor, did not go well. I did not like him or his attitude. Dr. Teitelbaum was very different, and I felt very comfortablewith him.
The staff was knowledgeable and polite and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Teitelbaum was very nice, listened, and made the experience a comfortable one.
Everything went as expected. I am very happy with the outcome. The result was what I expected. The surgery went well. The recovery went well. Everything went well.
Leading up to my surgery, I received phone calls from the anesthesiologist and surgeon themselves to ask me if I had any questions and make me feel comfortable. It was a very personal experience and they made time for me. I also received the most detailed preop booklet ever. It covered all the possible questions I may have. It also included multiple ways to contact not only the office, but the surgeon himself. After surgery I had a slight reaction to some steri strips, and sent a photo asking if it was okay. I got a reassuring answer within minutes. I am so happy with my results. I feel more comfortable in my clothes and there is a huge stress relief on my shoulders and back. I can do all the things that a teenager of my age should get to do. Before bathing suits were humiliating. Now I feel so comfortable and free to live it up!
Highly skilled surgeon, competent and caring staff. Better self image, improved confidence
The whole process was very professional and thorough. Every member of the staff and surgeon very extremely knowledgeable and helpful.
I am absolutely amazed by the result of my breast augmentation, it looks exactly like I wanted it to.. although I was very nervous of going to big and not natural, the staff really listened to what I wanted and helped me with decisions that gave me the end result I wanted. They are all very friendly, and the knowledge of Dr Teitelbaum is impressive. Thanks. Could not recommend your office more often.
I actually am highly satisfied, not sure if I hit a wrong button. I wouldn't be having surgery with Dr. Teiltelbaum and his staff if I didn't feel like they were super knowledgable. I came back to his practice after having to have a revision capsular contracture, I did research and realize that Dr. T is best surgeon in LA to do this procedure and he did a great job of listening to me the first time around. I just hope this is my last breast augmentation surgery.
Overall experience wonderful, staff so attentive and detailed in material of information for pre and post op. Impressive in house operating room and highly skilled nurses. Quick and easy post op and access to doctor 24/7 with any questions or concerns. Brought me great self confidence!!
Dr. Teitelbaulm was incredibly professional, detail oriented and offered a more reasonable solution for the procedure that I am considering. I am very impressed that he had a nurse present during the exam. Offering an alternative solution for achieving the goal I have in mind, gave me a lot of confidence about Dr. Teitelbaum's professional judgment.
My second visit with Dr Teitelbaums office. Would go back if I need more surgery. Would and have recommended to friends. All good! :) Just less eyelid. I can now see my eyeliner :)
The staff was polite, informative and professional. The entire experience was pleasent.
I tend to do a lot of research before I make appointments or decide to undergo any elective treatments or services. This is my first time undergoing any kind of surgery let alone elective cosmetic surgery so of course I was nervous, but Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff have made me feel very comfortable and at ease - I feel very informed of how things will go leading up to and following surgery and every question I have had has been answered.
Very impressive office staff, surgeon, before and after pictures. Emphasis clearly placed on safety and natural looking results.
From the day I received the literature before my first appointment I felt that Dr. Teitelbaum understood and valued the concerns I had about breast augmentation--namely the trust I put into a doctor performing surgery on me, most natural and beautiful result and the fastest recovery time possible. All of these expectations were met and exceeded in my experience with him and his staff. He's good at what he does, from selecting the best implant size and shape to the surgery itself and everything in between. I have three small children and was unhappy with the way my breasts had practically disappeared after breastfeeding and wanted something close to what I had before kids (only maybe a little better). He took thorough dictation of the specifics of my requests and concerns. He also has much more experience with the teardrop implants that I really wanted and thought those would be the most natural looking choice for me, which I was thrilled about. The previous surgeons I'd met with had basically said that those implants made for a somewhat more difficult surgery and recovery, but Dr. Teitelbaum said, because he'd helped pioneer them, they were really no different to him. I love the 3-D imagining his nurse, Karen (who is just the sweetest) did of several different implant sizes--those images really helped me understand what to expect on my body. And the recovery time is really the kicker. The other two surgeons told me I'd be in bed for a few days at least and then unable to do much for several weeks. Dr. T, on the other hand, told me I should go out for dinner that night. Drastic difference there. Surgery was easy--a wonderful nap! And I was able to help put my kids to bed that night. I'm 2 months out and thrilled with the result. I feel womanly and not self-conscious. The staff--from Vicky the surgery coordinator, to Karen to the anesthesiologist are all top notch. So happy and have recommended several friends.
The entire staff was professional, polite, accommodating and very knowledgeable.
Everything has been highly professional from the initial contact, to the information that was sent about the surgeon/procedure, and it has truly been a pleasant experience.
The Doctor was great. He was smart and friendly and very knledgable. The office was beautiful. His before and after pics looked great. He was everything we were hoping for
The doctor and staff were incredible. The procedure was worth every penny. It was a very easy, not stressful experience and I had amazing results. I love looking in the mirror and knowing that this is my body.
Doctor sells a level of expertise and patient experience that were not delivered. I visited the doctor post-procedure with my concerns and was advised my results were satisfactory". Results are sub-par and will require a correction."
Dr. T is an amazing surgeon, and he knows it. I found this a little intimidating. This is a private area where a little sensitivity should come into play. I had a few post op issues and eventually they were rectified, but in the meantime he could have been a little more simpathetic there too. But.... in the end he is professional and an amazing Dr. I would and have recommmended him. With my little hints.
My parents and I felt that the surgeon was highly skilled and competent and understood our concerns and what we were looking for.
I felt like they were taking my issue and reason for the procedure seriously.
The surgical results are great! I found a surgeon and team whom I can trust. Dr. T's clincical expertise & professionalism has set the bar for every other surgeon to meet. No Beverly Hills" surgeon can come close to him. The best part is the 24 hour recovery period. I was in Vegas 48 hours post-op and felt & looked great!". Every aspect of the surgical visit (pre-op, intra-op, & post-op) was pleasant. The office was clean, calm, had lots of amenities (i.e. water, coffee, sodas, etc.), the chairs in the waiting room were comfortable, and everyone in the office was very professional, amiable, & discreet. There isn't anything that Dr. T or his staff need to improve on. The only thing that was mildly inconvenient was the parking not being validated, but that's only if I have to find something to complain about. Otherwise, everything was top notch service!
Better rapport with surgeon who provided excellent pre surgical care but attitude postoperatively was disappointing. He seemed pressed for time and often appearing rushed and disinterested in being involved in post-operative follow-up care, delegating most of it to nursing staff.
I feel (and am told)I look at least 10 years younger! . Very thorough pre and postop care and follow up after my procedure. I felt very safe at all times. I am very thrilled with the natural result and would highly recommend friends and family to see Dr. Teitelbaum!! Wonderful staff with the utmost professionalism and care! Thank you :)
I had to email to ask for before/after pics. They were not offered during my consultation. My fears are not quite assuaged. Just telling me it's easy," does not comfort me. I would like more information about what can go wrong. Fat deposits showing up elsewhere, loose skin, bruising, wounds leaking, etc. "
everything from beginning to end was 1st class. The #1 most important thing to me was my initial consult with Dr. Teitelbaum. He made me feel very comfortable and relaxed ; enabling him to focus on our discussion.....both what I said and especially what I didn't say. He picked up on the fact that I really did not want implants and why and I never told him that. He was astute enough and sensitive enough to ask me calculated questions so he could figure out how I felt inside about my body. I am forever grateful to him.
Felt well informed about procedure through doctor and his staff. They returned my emails promptly and took my calls immediately. They whole process was communicated in detail and not only did they have reading material in what to do/expect before and after the procedure, the staff also reminded you verbally and checked in with phone calls and emails. My recovery has been great because I felt like I was well prepared and had reasonable expectations going in. The end result I am very happy with!
The procedure that I would like to have is considerably more expensive than the other Doctors I met with.
I loved his work he's unbelievable in what he does. I really appreciate it all the kindness from Dr. T and his professional team. I'm extremely happy with the result and have recommended few friends and coworkers to visit Dr. T in the future
I enjoy looking at photos now! I felt very comfortable and safe. I had the advantage of knowing the surgeon and anesthesiologist and that was very reassuring.I am very happy with the results of the surgery.
Everyone was very accommodating and informative. I felt that I was properly educated to the entire procedure and felt comfortable the whole time. A perfect transition into my new body.
Dr. Teirelbaum did an amazing job. My breast lift/implant looks so natural that you would never guess I had surgery. This is why I chose him to perform my surgery. I am very grateful for his skill and expertise.
The beautiful results! . Doctor was extremely thorough and had great bedside manner. I'm very happy with the results. They are very natural.
The experience was fine. I consulted a couple of highly qualified surgeons and probably either would have been an excellent choice. I ended up choosing the other surgeon with whom I felt more of a rapport.
The staff was knowledgeable and helpful. The surgeon was honest and upfront about my expected results.
Setting was professional, Dr. Teitelbaum was very knowledgable and clearly explained what I could expect from the procedure. The coordinator Vicki Koplow was exceptionally professional and answered my questions straight away. Very difficult to pinpoint. I believe the pre-op reading material was incredibly useful and prepared me for what to expect before, during and after. Furthermore, it was an easy reference to turn to in case I had a question (most of my questions were addressed in the material).
Dr. Teitlelbaum and his office are top professionals. He did my implant and scar revision surgery for a 12 scar 10 years ago, which gave every good results. I have developed rippling of the implant but do not know why - whether it was the implant itself, the doctor's pocket placement, or the thinness of my skin. However, I was surprised to find out that an implant replacement procedure with no other revisions costs as much as the original implant surgery (excluding the scar revision). IMHO it should cost less than the full implant procedure. I may be very mistaken if the surgery is not faster and less complicated and his fees are about the same, given inflation On the other hand, I am a repeat customer and he was the original surgeon, for whatever that is worth."
Price was very high and feels that doctor wasn't honest about my problem . Which is I don't have capsule contraction anymore . He said I do have ..
What a joy not to have the rolls of fat on my stomach, have a tight tummy for the first time in my life (excess fat is gone!) and have nothing spill over when I button my jeans. Hallelujah! My surgeon instilled confidence in me that he is extremely technically knowledgeable and has a very high level of skill, experience and expertise in the procedures that I wanted done, a full tummy tuck/diastasis repair. He always answered all my questions fully. He was empathetic and caring when I was experiencing pain and was thoughtful and positive.
The over all experience was great. I knew what I was getting into and got what I expected. But, I thought maybe people were being harsh. They were a little, but he's a little intimidating.
Every person I encountered from the front office staff and surgical coordinator, Vicki, to the medical staff was courteous, caring, and highly professional. Working in a medical field myself I was particularly impressed with the medical staff, in particular the clinical coordinator, Karen, and the OR staff. Each of them paid particular attention to detail and to ensuring everything before, during, and after surgery would be efficient and error free. Karen was particularly helpful in arranging an outside procedure and making sure there were on errors or omissions in the process. The anesthesiologist was great, and I don't believe there could be a better surgeon! Many thanks to everyone! The attentiveness of the surgeon and staff. While cosmetic procedures are rarely thought of as emergencies, I felt as though I had an emergency and I was treated as though I did, with surgeon and staff responding in a concerned and caring manner.
The surgeon is extremely talented and everyone was perfect. . The staff was 100% professional. They were fun and friendly, very thorough. Exceptional service and thoughtful in their approach. He is an amazing surgeon. The best.
I hated my breasts my entire life and now I feel confident and sexy everyday in anything I wear. . From my initial consultation through my pre-op my experience exceeded my expectations. I am so happy with my results and I felt I was prepared for every aspect of surgery. Even now,3 months after surgery , if I have a question or concern I get a response immediately. I have and will continue to recommend Dr Teitlebaum to all of my friends!
My husband had a procedure down by Dr. T and there was no one else I would think to go to. He's amazing
I felt a little rushed during consult, wished I has asked to see photos to look at with the Dr. commenting on which procedure was done and showing me my prescribed procedure photos.
Dr. T and his staff were so caring and wonderful. His credentials are stellar and he really seems to care about you and what you would like.
love dr. teitelbaum. he was so kind and gentle. he took time to explain everything and made me feel very comfortable. he did not over promise, was very realistic in explaining what i would end up with. he even told me i can come back again if i have any questions before surgery. he is great.
I was very thoroughly informed about each step of the procedure and what to expect after. I felt very safe and comfortable all along the way. I did not feel confident before having the surgery and since then I feel very confident and fill my old clothes nicely. I feel comfortable in a baking suit again!
The surgeon . The only issue I had was during my consult and the imaging and sizing process. I was told by the np that the way the implants sizer look under my clothes will be what my breast look after breast implant. I chose a smaller size based on this recommendation compare to what Dr. T recommended originally and now I wish I would have just listen to his recommendation.
Knowledgeable and experienced doctor and very thorough and knowledgeable staff.
Every expectation was met and then some. I had to cancel procedure at the last minute due to a cold/flu and felt terrible about it. All members of the 'team,' the doctor, anesthesiologist, nurse and office staff were incredibly supportive. I am grateful for their thoughtfulness and look forward to the procedure being done in a few weeks.
The results are amazing! It is better than I have ever hoped for. Dr. Teitelbaum is truly the best! . The staff, nurses, office, atmosphere, everything was wonderful. Dr. Teitelbaum really listened to what I wanted and delivered amazing results. I am satisfied and grateful for the whole experience.
I had trouble explaining what I wanted done and Vicki help me with the correct name and gave me a GREAT feeling about the practice immediately. Vicki, Karen and I have been in contact since my first appointment. The main thing was letting them know about my pre-op schedule which was all completed today.
I felt as though Dr. Teitelbaum was familiar with my issues and validated my concerns.
My implants are much softer. The surgery met all my expectations and the recovery went extremely well. I was very satisfied with dr. Teitelbaum and how he listened to what I wanted.
I felt really comfortable with the surgeons approach towards breast augmentation.
I was highly satisfied with the care I received from the practice. Explanations and communication were clear, and I was able to easily reach someone if I had a question. My breasts look amazing, exactly what I wanted. Not too big, not too small. The recovery was very easy, and relatively painless.
I felt completely at ease and that the surgeon completely understood what I wanted to achieve with surgery. I felt it was a very thorough consultation and without any hesitation I knew I wanted to book my procedure.
The office staff was very professional. Mailed me a packet prior to my consult, confirmed my appt via email and text. The appt itself was also very professional. The staff was friendly and my appt was on time. My surgeon was very thorough and answered my questions. 80% of the reason I have chosen this surgeon over another to do my procedure is because of the clear, friendly and professional interactions I have had with the surgeon's nurse, office staff and patient coordinator.
dr T is highly professional and a wonderful doctor.his staff is lovely and very informative.
The surgeon was very honest and thorough. He was very friendly and easy to talk with. He did not make me feel rushed and I felt like he was very responsive to my questions and concerns.
I got exactly what I wanted and had a very easy and caring experience. I especially liked the very complete pamphlet I was given so I knew exactly what to expect, how to prepare for surgery and how to care for myself post-surgery. I had an idea of what I wanted and discussed it with the doctor. The staff were encouraging and very helpful. I'm extremely happy with the outcome and the entire experience. I've already recommended Dr. Teitelbaum and one of my friends has already contacted the office to talk about a procedure.
This procedure changed my life because it gave me so much confidence. I love that my breasts look very natural. Dr. Teitelbeum listened to my wishes and gave his honest professional opinion on what would be the best plan for me based on my wishes. I am highly satisfied with my results. I also really appreciated how professional the staff was. They are very friendly and truly respect your privacy. I had a great experience and would highly recommend this facility to others.
I have gained so much confidence in my body, I now feel free to wear the things I've always dreamed of wearing. I no longer feel self conscious about my body. . The doctor made me feel very comfortable and reassured. Process went very smoothly and end results were better than expected
My boobs are finally pretty."" Dr. T is so skilled! I'm thrilled with my results, his mastery, as well as his beside manner.
the office staff and doctor and nurse treated me with respect and were professional SAND friendly... gave me a great deal of information and adequate time for my consultations and the surgeon is even having a second meet up with me prior to the surgery date for extensive questions I have. This is much appreciated.
It's just been hard since I don't live in CaliforniaIf I could see the doctor more it would be less stressful and the doctor is willing to see me anytime it's just the traveling to get there.I would definitely trust this doctor to due surgery again. I think he is very intelligent and artistic. He did a beautiful job.
Dr Teitlebaum could not have been more clear in his explanations of the procedure I am interested in & he could not have been nicer to deal with- he allayed my fears.
Office staff was very pleasant and informative. Materials mailed prior to visit and information on doctor was great. Very professional and made me feel at ease. Great experience.
I have had four previous surgeries to correct my problem. Dr Teitelbaum is simply the best. I had such a different experience with scaring and recovery being minimal and very comfortable. I am confident my encapsulation will not return this time. The staff is attentive and warm and it was overall such a great experience.
The surgery experience was pretty straightforward and I didn't have any serious problems. The pre-op booklet was helpful because my breasts didn't look great immediately post op, but I didn't freak out because I knew from the booklet it would take some time for them to look better. Now, about 3 months post op, they are looking better and better and overall I think I will be pleased at the 6 month mark.
My results are amazing and even better than I could have possibly imagined!
Everyone, especially Dr. Teitelbaum, was very professional and accessible. My confidence in the doctor's skill was well placed!
I wish I had gotten slightly bigger implants but am still very satisfied with the appearance.
I couldn't be more pleased with the results of my surgery or with Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff. I had an amazing experience and I am so glad I had the surgery done.
Nothing to do with the surgeon .. It has only been four months and I am not completely healed.. Still waiting for some scar tissue to dissipate ..therefore I feel I can not answer this question quite yet. So far.. So good. I have a very natural look which is what I asked for. I would trust Dr. T with any surgery.. And will gladly return for any other elective surgeries with him.
I feel there are issues within this office. Doctor was running 1/2 hour late, though that is not unusual. Nurse couldn't care less about me or my concerns. Surgeon kept looking at his watch during consultation. He did answer questions when I asked, but seemed distracted and in a rush. I called to schedule the surgery two days later anyway, due to the surgeon's experience. I was told I would receive a packet with an invoice and information. It has been a week and a half and I have still received nothing. Makes me hesitate to have surgery with this group. Though I do value the surgeon's knowledge and experience. I will say the receptionist was lovely. Very nice.
Dr. Teitlebaum was as kind and patient as he is skilled. I loved his philosophy of looking natural and MY best self. I was very nervous about doing a surgery. Everyone in the office made me feel better and more relaxed. I never felt pushed or rushed. It took me a long time to come to my decision to do it. I had been to 2 other doctors. I loved my experience with this doctor and his staff.
I felt that the Dr. was very well experienced and genuinely concerned about my safety.
Overall, the only problem I had was the anasthesia, but that's on me: I opted for the local. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn't.
The doctor and staff (with one exception previously described) were helpful, caring and considerate. The various aspects of the procedure, pre and post operative instructions were clear and concise. I felt very comfortable with the experience and felt my care and well,being we're in the proverbial good hands.
The front desk was friendly and warm. Nurse Karen was very helpful, pleasant and friendly. Nurse Jackie spent some time with me right before surgery and her calm demeanor definitely melted away my anxiety. Dr Teitelbaum is a perfectionist and an artist to say the least. My breasts were markedly uneven at baseline, and even though it is now only 24 hours post surgery, I am already beyond thrilled. I told my friends I've been TeitelBombed and sent them my before and after pictures. They were all impressed! I'm the last one from my close group of girlfriends to get a breast augmentation. Their surgeons were Garth Fisher, Grant Stevens, Todd Gerlach and other out of town and out of country surgeons. I know Dr Teitelbaum gave me exactly what I wanted. In fact, he exceeded my expectations due to the degree of asymmetry I presented at baseline. I am beyond impressed with the level of professionalism, the written material provided with tremendous detail of how and what to plan for the surgery and what to expect. I was also pleased to see Dr Teitelbaum perform a psychological assessment during the consultation. This speaks highly of his ethics and attention to the overall patient status. I will highly recommend Dr Teitelbaum to my friends, family and patients. Thank you for taking such great care of me:)
My phone talk with Dr. T was not rushed, I felt very comfortable to ask questions. He answered all my questions and asked me questions about mysef, my health and what would be the best options for my particular problems. I researched, US, Japan, Korea and Thailand. I choose Dr. T even though he was the most expensive and I am looking forward to my surgery.
Depending on the doctors mood, it would determine how much time he spent answering questions. On my post op visit, he had one foot out the door as I was trying to ask some questions. There is a corrective procedure to be done that I'm not happy with and he won't consider anything until at least 6 months. It seems a lot of time to continue to heal given that this issue is not a 'time' issue that would make it better or go away.
When I called for a consultant ation I spoje with Vicki Kopkow . She was patient as I was upset about my problem , kind and caring and very helpful . Upon arriving the staff was kind , my appointment was taken right on time . The office is warm and confortable . Dr Teitlebaum was very thorough . Ihe listened to me about my concerns and addressed them in their entirety. I was extremly impressed with his knowledge . After interviewing four surgeons Dr Teitlebaum was the only doctor I felt comfortable enough to schedule my procedure.
The amount of uninterrupted time the doctor set aside to answer my questions, was invaluable. I've seen many physicians and Dr.Teitialbaum's bedside manner is well honed...this is extremely important to me. One can be the best surgeon in the world but if I as the patient feel my questions and concerns are too compulsory I will not choose that physician. So yes,I am very satisfied.
The office staff was amazing. I had a breast implant rupture and they were very accomodating to all of my needs in a friendly , supportive, and professional manner. Dr. T was very professional, informative and took the time do do the consultation thoroughly. At the consultation I received preoperative information which was the most comprehensive pre and post operative instructions I have ever seen (and I am a physician !). It is a model that all physicians should use ! I highly recommend Dr T and his staff.
I would categorize my overall experience with Dr. Teitelbaum's office and staff as highly satisfying due to a number of reasons. Although Dr. Teitelbaum's office was my first and only consideration, the confidence and comfort that I experienced from the beginning lead me to believe that my selection was the best possible choice. I was highly impressed with the qualifications and background of Dr. Teitelbaum, while his staff initially greeted me with a genuine level of respect when I first approached the office. I was also highly impressed with the level of efficiency that was displayed by the office staff throughout my entire experience, as I was highly satisfied. It has been approximately two months post-op, and my healing process has been relatively swift, although I am eager to follow up with the recommended six month post-op inspection. I continue to look forward to my results, as I recover, and would like to thank Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff for providing me with the consistent follow up care that they have generously offered.
Everything about this practice is patient centered and caring. I love the office staff and nurses. This is my second procedure with Dr. Teitelbaum. He is amazing!
Dr. Teitelbaum & his staff are so wonderful. I went in to have a consultation for a breast augmentation. I was warmly greeted at the front desk, taken back for the appointment. The 3D Vectra is awesome, it will make you 100% want to schedule your surgery ASAP! His office is professional and very clean. Dr. T has great bedside manners and really cares about what you want & what would look best for your body. I have my surgery in a week, I can't wait!
Dr Teitelbaum eased any and all anxiety and doubt that I had about going through with the procedure. He answered all my questions and provided even more information that helped me understand and feel at ease. Dr Teitelbaum's consultation is what got me excited all over again for going through with this. He was very understanding and thorough when taking notes of my desired results.
Very professional and knowledgeable staff who made me feel 100% more comfortable about the procedure.
:) the previous surgeon I went to see before this one had a big, nice consultation room. Made me feel a little claustrophobic with this one. But if I would've not gone to anyone else before, I would have not cared. So not a big deal. This surgeon and his staff are fantastic hence why I've scheduled surgery with them.
If I could give more than a highly satisfied" rating, I would. I researched for months and I couldn't find a doctor that I felt comfortable with until I found Dr Teitelbaum. His staff was friendly and helpful throughout the whole process from consultation to post surgery. Dr Teitelbaum truly is an artist and knows what he is doing. He answered all my questions and made me feel comfortable in the consulation, the day of surgery, and my post op appointments. He was very throughout in calculating my measurements and his instructions on my safety... both which were very important to me.The surgery was easy and I was laughing when I went under to wake up in hardly any pain. Again, it was just the elephants! My recovery was easy as well. I had to have help getting out of bed for the first few days but I was out and about the next day, a little groggy, but hardly any pain. That's all due to a light and precise hand!Today I am 2 month PO and I couldn't be happier. They already look so natural and they are the perfect size on my body. This has been one of the best decisions as well as great experiences of my life. If you are looking for a surgeon... Look no where else. Thanks Dr T!"
Everyone made me feel comfortable. I am so happy with my decision to have surgery. It has made me a more confident person.
The doctor has great qualifications and experience and the rapid recovery surgery option is very appealing compared to other surgery methods.
Dr. T shared my concerns & gave me exactly what I wanted. I was shocked at how painless the recovery was- amazing!
Because the person in charge of my billing did not explain to me that I would have to pay another doctor for my tissue examination or whatever they are doing, which was never brought up, that was very shady.
I like it because I like how my breast looks like! The doctor did amazing job! This is why I like it so much! Also, the personal are so friendly and everything is so good! I am highly recommended!:)
I have continually been impressed with the effort the staff has made to remain in contact with me about any concerns or questions I may have regarding my impending procedure. Karen and Vicki have both been very accessible and easy to contact, and they have made me feel very comfortable about my decision to have my procedure with this practice. Dr. Teitelbaum was also straight forward and very informative.
steve is the ultimate plastic surgeon. highly competent, professional, and smart. stan and I love him. he is our treasure.
I am in the medical field myself, and I think dr. Tietelbaum is one of the best Surgen. I am 1000\% satisfied and would refer him to family and friends....
Dr. T was honest and sincere about what to expect and he nailed it. He and his staff are amazing. I am beyond happy with how everything went and the results! Thank you!
I directly stated my goals for breast reduction, which the surgeon said were best accomplished with liposuction. This turned out to not to reduce my breasts as I directly requested. I also suffered complication from the liposuction which are still present 6 months later. My breasts are minimally smaller, not even reduced one bra size. The doctor seemed disinterested in my concerns and disappointment.
I love my new breasts! They look natural, I went home with no bandages, only needed ibuprofen, and felt great! The staff was so professional, compassionate, and was available whenever I had a question, no matter how small. They were patient with me and walked me through each step. Dr. Teitlebaum has an amazing design aesthetic, wants what's best for your body, and is extremely gently during surgery, hence, the need for minimal pain meds. Brilliant!! One day recovery. I went away for a girls weekend in Laguna the very next day!
My appointment was originally for a 5 month checkup after my chin implant/face lift procedure. However, I was very happy about my face and so had a consultation with Dr. T. about future remodeling" - I will schedule my breast aug hopefully the end of September so will be contacting your office about that.Having been a vice president for my company for over 30 years and desiring both positive and negative feedback from our customers, I will let you know my thoughts.Staff wise, your office is very professional and come across that way. Staff at Serenity are more "cozy" so to speak and those there come across as more endearing. Might be that is the way you want it to be. Serenity staff might just be the nicest group of individuals under the same roof - except for the manager who was pretty rude when I told her that I picked up athletes feet there. I did think I was going to get a call or two checking up on me after my face procedure but that was not the case. I still wonder about that because my friends doctors or assistants have done follow up calls to them.The only issue I had with anyone in your office was with Karen because I had asked her three times about getting details of my difficult intubation with the anesthesiologist to no avail. I was pretty frank with her when I saw her recently and told her she had promised to get me the information three times prior - she did follow through this time so all is good. I love Dr. T and has he always been my sisters favorite doctor. He can be frank and in a hurry at times but no so this last trip. I look forward to having my breast aug done in a few months and then following that up with a tummy tuck. Thank you for listening and I look forward to seeing you in September. "
The entire experience was easy to navigate. i was given information before my visit to be prepared and during the visit all of my questions were answered.
I was extremely deformed from Breast explantation 8 months prior from a different Dr. I had chosen not to have implants put back in. I was shocked at how horrible, and deformed I was left after 30 years with the same implants..I wish I had met Dr. Titelbaum first.After seeing Dr Teitlebaum and his amazing staff I knew he was the Dr I wanted to have put new ones back in. The entire first meeting was so much more than I imagined. From the front desk, nurse, and Dr. I loved that they were able to take pictures and show me different sizes of how I would look with thisis amazing 3D camera. Every question was answered. I never felt rushed.He explained that because of past nipple incision and implants that were to large for my breast that was the reason for the deformity. And, there were no guarantees on the results.I had the surgery and was surprised that I left with no bra or bandages. The recovery was fast. The next evening I went to my daughters birthday party! And I was doing arm excersies that day.The outcome 1 month later is not perfect but as I said I was extremely deformed. I am happy with my results and would recommend him highly. I feel he is extremely educated with breast implants, spent a lot of time with me, and is still working with me to receive perfect results. I can finally wear clothes and bathing suits again with out spending hours trying to hide my deformed breasts
The doctor gave me everything I needed to commit to him. I left positive he would make me look good.
i think that the nurse, karen, and the patient coordinator, vicki, could have been a little more easy going to make me feel more comfortable. dr. teitelbaum was amazing though and i can't wait for my surgery.
I'm very pleased with the staff and Dr. T was amazing with me. he was straight forward, to the point and honest about everything. They have made me feel comfortable throughout my entire process and I feel good about selecting Dr. Teitelbaum as my surgeon.
Loved the financial coordinator. Loved the directness of the surgeon. Nurse was just ok~ maybe lacking in personality. I think main concern is difference in cost between my available choices from 13,900 or w implants 19+k. Just a large gap for me. Also I would love to see better pics w areola positioning .
Perfection is what can describe MY results. A rhinoplasty and chin implant in 2007 left me looking younger and confident with soft amazing natural features. Recently in Jan 2015 I had a breast reduction. What a wonderful life changing decision! After contemplating the struggles I had being 5'2 130 and a 34DD but not wanting to lose my womanly appeal I put my trust in Dr. Teitelbaum. He LISTENED as before and gave me EXACTLY what I wished for. AMAZING RESULTS! AMAZING DR. AND STAFF! You could not be in better hands.
The staff was friendly, professional, and courteous. Dr. Teitelbaum answered my questions thoroughly and clearly has extensive knowledge and experience with breast augmentation surgery. I trust him and feel confident about my decision to move forward. I know I'm in highly capable hands.
I was very satisfied with my experience. I think the nurse could've done a better job explaining the sizing, and trying on the implants with bras, why certain implants were better for me than others - But overall I thought the staff including nurse were great
The doctor is very professional and highly qualified. He knows his work extremely well. I am very pleased with my results and I like his staff. They all work together quite well. Happy patient over here.
Dr. T and his entire staff made me feel so comfortable during the entire process. I really felt like Dr. T understood what I wanted and delivered! They spelled out exactly what to expect and there were no surprises. I am still amazed by the recovery. I was up and about the afternoon of my surgery. I have other friends who have had this surgery and they were shocked that I did not need to stay somewhere for recovery and that I only took prescription ibuprofen. I'm so happy that I was referred to Dr. T and can't say enough great things about my experience.
There are too many things to list that attribute to my satisfaction. Vicki, the patient coordinator is highly knowledgable and answered all my questions. Dr. Teitelbaum was extremely thorough about the entire procedure from pre op to post op. The booklet they provide contains everything you need to know about the surgery from what to do to prepare to what you can expect while you recover. I loved the surgical nurses and the day of surgery went perfectly. I was extremely happy to see that recovery was just as described, painless! I did go out to dinner the night of surgery and felt great! Follow up from Dr. Teitelbaum has been just as amazing. He called me the night of surgery and continues to be available for any questions I have. I chose Dr. Teitelbaum based on his extensive research, innovation and contributions to breast augmentation surgery. His patented method of measurement for sizing of implants based on preservation of tissue health, as well as his wonderfully natural outcomes are what set him apart. My results have exceeded my expectations and I feel priveledged to be his patient.
Honestly i made The best choice in my life ! Effects looks amazing natural and recover was super fast !! All my friends were in shocked seeing me 4h after surgery :)) I could put my hands up :)) was worth it to fly from another side of the world a special for this surgery with the best Dr. Steven Teitelbaum !!
I've thought about this procedure for years. Consequently, I've researched it for many years. Before I made my appointment, Dr. Teitelbaum had to meet some very specific criteria.. Which he did, in spades. I have good" surgeons locally, but I prefer Dr. Teitelbaum's qualifications, experience, and methods. I was very pleased with my initial consultation as I found the staff to be very helpful and thorough. I am very excited about my upcoming procedure !"
I'm overall very satisfied with my experience. It would have been even more satisfactory if I would have had more time with the nurse to discuss more in details the various stage of recovery and what to expect.
I emailed Vicki prior to my surgery, saying I wanted to come in once more to discuss the implant I was getting and the size. She talked me out of it, and I feel that was a big mistake. I am not happy with my results. I do not feel Dr Teitelbaum should perform breast augmentation on tuberous breast. I came back to see Dr Teitelbaum after my surgery to explain to him, that I was not happy with my results. Dr. T snapped at me, said I should be happy and did not want to speak to me about it any further. After just spending $15,000 dollars, I do not feel that is the way I should have been treated. I also feel as a patient regardless of how much I spent, I should have been treated with respect.
Every was comfortable. Everyone was professional and friendly. Doctor is the best. And the office was so professionally coordinated and timely.
The results from my breast life and the replacement of my old saline implants is amazing. I have never been pleased with the look and feel of my breast implants until my most recent surgery. There is definitely a reason Dr. Teitelbaum has such an incredible reputation. I would recommend him to anyone.
I just felt like my concerns were not fully considered. I felt rushed on the day of my surgery, and the doctor did not want to go any bigger than his recommendation. I would have liked him to listen to me. Also, nobody has contacted me since the day of the surgery. I emailed the patient coordinator, and haven't heard back
Dr. T's primary interest is ensuring that he gets the best results for the patient. With a 4th revision he was up for the challenge given many things that were done incorrectly by previous surgeons. Because I was so confident in his expertise on revisions I didn't seek a second opinion. If I was going to have the surgery, he would be the only one that I felt confident that would provide me with the best outcome. I'm very pleased with the results.
This has been the smoothest and most pleasant experience. Thank you, Dr. Steven Teitelbaum and all your supporting staff.
I had researched Dr. Teitelbaum prior to contacting the offices sugary results to be very satisfactory and was prepared to pay extra, if need be, for the peace of mind of having the procedure done correctly.
From the first visit/consultation was a great experience. The website showed great quality proceedures, with similar body types to mine, so that was incredibly helpful. Dr Teitelbaum was friendly and helpful, and caring from the get go, which made the whole experience more comforting. Everyone in the office went above and beyond to insure I was prepared, comfortable and ready for the surgery. The surgery itself is beautiful, and subtle, so perfect and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
I wanted a surgeon who would take control of the consult and tell me what they thought was best. I also wanted to trust the aesthetic of the surgeon. Both of these needs were met.
Dr Teitelbaum came into the examination room with a sincere interest in how I had come to the decisions I'd made to have the surgical procedures that I was inquiring about and how I'd come to those decisions.I truly felt that if he saw a sign that I was unsure of my decision or that I had unrealistic expectations about the requested procedures, that he would not have agreed to do the surgery at all.I came out of the consultation and immediately cancelled the 2 other appointments I'd made and feel ever so confident that I will have the best result
Easy of coming out of anesthesia, easy and speedy recovery and very good results.
Dr T's office lead me through the entire process multiple times, in a variety of formats. For example, the materials I received in the mail echoed what the nurse told me which was then reiterated by Dr. T. I find the consistency very comfortable as it shows everyone is very knowledgeable and understanding of the patient's needs. All staff, including Dr. T. were warm and friendly making sure I was not nervous and cared for in every possible manner.
I found Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff very courteous and extremely knowledgeable. They made everything easy for me to understand. All of my questions were answered without feeling rushed.
Great communication, honest expectations, great and truthful results.
I felt respected and that I was not being judged and that the outcome I was seeking was a priority.
Everyone was very warm and welcoming. Made me feel comfortable in a new situation. Dr. Teitelbaum seemed to be one of the best in his field when I researched this surgery, I was proven correct. I love my new look and it is exactly what I was expecting.
Every part of the experience was amazing, especially the result. The staff was communicative and the doctor was caring and the result exceeded my expectations.
Dr. T was professional, listened and was not pushy. He was realistic with possible outcomes and I felt that I knew exactly what I was to expect from my surgery. I also liked NOT being 'sold' on other procedures while in the office. Another surgery center I was looking into, the coordinator was constantly trying to sell me on other procedures and she looked 'plastic'. It was a turn off to the entire office. I was extremely nervous about doing this surgery as I had a ruptured implant that needed urgent removal. It was not my choice to undergo surgery at this time. That said, I felt confident that I had chosen the right place after looking around diligently prior to my commitment to this office and doctor. The outcome was amazing and I was pleasantly surprised to see what the end result looked like. If I knew this is how things would turn out, I would have done this years sooner. I am very thankful to Dr T and his staff.
Dr. Teitelbaum is no doubt a knowledgeable surgeon who I'm sure is a thought leader amongst his colleagues. I had 2 consultations. The first consultation left me with questions about sizing choice. The second consultation was made to review my sizing concerns and provide visual photos of what realistic outcome I was hoping for. I requested one size increase from the previous choice. Doctor agreed and did not voice any danger or aesthetic concerns at this time. He in fact said that the before photos I showed were much like my own shape, an that therefore my expectations were obtainable. The day of surgery is where the confusion took place. During the preoperative appointment doctor reneged on our last conversation regarding sizing and instead told me that he wanted me to go with the smaller size due to personal aesthetic reasons. I was flabbergasted because I though we had agreed on size and that the larger size would give me the look I had shown in the photos. I am only 3 months post, yet my breast definitely don't look as full as they safely could. Also I acknowledge that breast are never identical, yet one of mine is definitely lower and flatter.
My doctor is amazing. He takes the time to listen to his patients.
Dr Teitelbaum is amazing!!! his staff is amazing best experience I have ever had. I had the ugliest over sized, scared, deformed breast and he made them look natural and beautiful and no scars!!!
i appreciated the honesty and professionalism of the doctor and his team.
All individuals in the office were kind, knowledgeable, and helpful in such a way that made me feel like I was in good hands. Consult was thorough; efficient but not rushed.
Everything was great - I was very happy with the experience, procedure etc. One area we could have emphasized more was discussing post-operative results in more detail and considering size of breast implants and considering different options. Overall I am very happy with the experience.
The surgeon is both highly skilled and personally lovely. Every person I interfaced with in the practice was real and caring and candid. The result was as perfect as it could have been.
The doctor spent sufficient time to listen, understand and answer all of my questions. He was very focused, yet relaxed and accessible throughout the consult, which put me at ease and he was very forthcoming in describing the details of the surgical procedure we were discussing. He has a very strong aesthetic sense and is very grounded in solid knowledge and experience in the nuts and bolts aspects. I found him to be very thoughtful and sensitive re all of the factors - - mental, emotional, lifestyle, health, motivation involved in the decision for elective surgery. And he's a tremendously nice person.
The professionalism of Dr Teitelbaum's team mirrored the excellent surgical and bedside manner of Dr Teitelbaum himself. This is a first rate, first class surgical team!
The Doctor was a true artist. My body looks amazing. The staff and other doctors/nurses were great! The only thing I would have liked would have been a phone call the evening after the surgery to check in and answer any additional questions that evening. I had lipo and breast augmentation and am above and beyond delighted!
There were little things that I felt could have gone smoother. The patient coordinator took some medical information from me to make a copy, then brought it back but, for some reason, it wasn't put into my file. When that came to light a month later, they asked for it again so I faxed it in. No one confirmed whether they received it or not. My fax gave a confirmation that it went through but as it turns out, no one received that fax and I had to send it in again. In the end it had to be sent in 3 times. It's a small thing but for that to have happened repeatedly before the surgery made me question my decision of choosing them. If they couldn't keep track of one piece of paper, what does that mean for my surgery and after care? It all got sorted out in the end, everyone was very friendly about it but it definitely made me less confident going into surgery than I should have been.
My highest priority was for the surgery to look natural and proportional. I can honestly say they are perfect! I feel like I was heard and understood, and that the end result was better than I thought possible. I am really happy I did it and I would recommend this office for sure.
The surgeon seemed to have an aesthetic feel for what i wanted done which was reassuring. Also, the office was very nice (loved the art and fashion books) and the before/after books of his work were really helpful in me feeling comfortable with doctors work.
I am extremely pleased with my results! At 3 months post-op I feel great about how everything is healing.
Dr. Teitelbaum was available to me at all times both before and after surgery. (Even when I probably contacted him too many times). The office staff is incredible and I felt Dr Teitelbaum really understood the vision that I had and in return he was clear about the likely outcomes. I felt extremely safe in his care as well as the care of his staff.
Vicki was very thorough and helpful with information. Dr T was very informative, honest and direct. His opinion differed from what other PS recommended but in the end I agree with his opinion most because it is the most realistic.
I got exactly what I wanted. The doctor explained in detail all my options. I recovered in a day, the same day after my procedure nobody believed I just had a procedure. It was almost painless. The doctor is amazingly talented.
All aspects were very professional and all of the individuals listened to what I had to say. If I were to have this procedure I would not consider any other surgeon. Dr. T. was very forthright about all information provided. I did not schedule the procedure because it would require me to stop smoking for 60 to 90 days. I really appreciated his honestly and the reason why surgery could not be done while I am a smoker. I appreciate his integrity and honesty. I am not certain that all other surgeons would have handled this in the same way.
Entire experience was excellent: staff were professional, respectful, knowledgeable, and friendly while answering every question fully. Process was efficient and office decor perfectly balanced clinical yet welcoming ambiance. If I consider a similar procedure in the future, I will return to this office.
Hi,The overall experience was great. Most importantly, I am very please with the final outcome.
I loved that I had no severe pain involved. I was able to walk around without fear of pain. I noticed that he was the only doctor not recommending s special bra or massaging of any sort due to his beautiful initial results. I felt very comfortable going into the surgery room. I wasn't scared or nervous. The nurses made me feel extremely comfortable. I was amazed how the Anesthesiologist numbed the area where he was going to inject the IV so I wouldn't feel discomfort. I really like the warm wraps they placed on my legs. The recovering was on point with everything I was told.
Everyone at the office was so wonderful and helpful. I shared what I wanted and felt heard. The results were what I was promised.
Everything was just as i expected. I had no disappointments. I could not have been more pleased.
My experience was over my expectations. Dr Teitelbaum made me feel very comfortable at the first meeting. I would do it all over again and I would highly recommend Dr. T to all my friends.
I was and still am highly satisfied with every part of my operation because I got exactly what I wanted. My natural looking results have boosted my confidence and have made my body so proportional.
I visited five different doctors in three different states when searching for the right plastic surgeon to perform my procedure. I'm thrilled with my selection of Dr. Teitelbaum (who was a referral from two different friends). My results are essentially perfect. And, my scar is so tiny & gets better everyday. Honestly, I feel very fabulous and free! I'm now able to confidently wear clothes I would never dare wear before. And, I'm working out harder now so I can look even better in the styles I want to wear. He is a master. I was awake during my procedure, which I might not suggest for everyone, because it hurts (even with local anesthesia). But, on the other hand, I got to experience first-hand just how GREAT he is in the operating room. He is in complete control: confident, adept, swift, kind, professional and a perfectionist. I would not hesitate to go under with him any day of the week for any procedure. He expresses genuine concern immediately after the procedure & gives you personal contact info in case you need anything off-hours during your recovery. Plus, his surgical suite is adjacent to the office so the whole process is super easy & his staff is top-notch. I adore him!
The outcome was exactly as I had hoped and the recouperation was easier than I've heard from others' experiences elsewhere.
I love Dr. T. He makes me feel comfortable, but most importantly I am 100\% convinced that he is an excellent surgeon. I know that he will do a fantastic job and I completely trust his abilities. The staff are all very nice and helpful.
Every single person I came into contact with at Dr. Teitelbaum's office greeted me with a smile, paid attention to my needs and questions, made me feel comfortable, thoroughly answered my questions and were sincere....and this includes Dr. Teitelbaum. I walked out of his office with the confidence that I was in good hands. Additionally, since my consultation, I have spoken to several staff members telephonically (I live out of state) and they have gone above and beyond what I expected by getting messages to the necessary party and returning calls promptly. I have not had my procedure yet, but I have no doubt that it will go as smoothly as Dr. T's office is run.
Everything about my experience was excellent. Everyone was friendly, professional and helpful. The doctor and the nurse made me feel very comfortable. I felt the doctor was willing to take as long as necessary to answer all of my questions. I did wait for about 50 minutes past my original appointment time; however, the wait was definitely worth it.
I did my research before coming into the office so I was aware of Dr. Teitelbaum education, experience and work. I was pleasantly surprised at how personable and humble he was. I brough my best friend with me to the consult for a second opinion. I wanted to make sure I was making the best decision. We went through all the books in the waiting room and then she met Dr. Teitelbaum. After the consult, she had high confidence that he was the right surgeon based on the answers he provided and seeing his portfolio. She trusted him immediately. That was a good sign for me!Also, my sister was worried about the procedure in general but when I told her Dr. Teitelbaum teaches at UCLA and when she saw that surgery was taking place at St. John's campus, she was relieved. She is beyond happy with the results and think they are the perfect size.All my girlfriends make comments such as you cant even tell they are fake. Its only been 3 weeks too! One of them wants to come in for lipo and the other one wants to get her breast redone.Thanks to everyone at Dr. Teitelbaum's office. They make the whole experience fun and enjoyable.
Everyone was very friendly and made the process very easy to understand.
Dr. Teitelbaum was prepared to answer all of my questions and his staff has been very available and friendly to respond to any follow up issues. The information provided was very helpful and I feel in very good hands.
Every part of my experience with Dr. Teitelbaum and his wonderful staff was nothing but excellent in every way. I am so thrilled with the outcome of my surgery. Thank you Dr. Teitlebaum, I am forever greatful.
Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff were fantastic. Dr. Teitelbaum was extremely patient while listening to my concerns. At one point, for fear that I would end up too big" post breast augmentation, I went in to discuss getting a breast lift too, which would allow for a smaller impacts. Dr. Teitelbaum explained why he felt only augmentation was necessary. Not only was he 100\% right, but he literally took thousands of dollars out of his own pocket by discouraging me from the lift. I am certain he is one of the only plastic surgeons or doctors who would we so honorable! The results of my surgery are fantastic."
Everything was incredibly smooth, and efficient and professional. I was very impressed with how organized they were. I would have liked the 3-D images to help me visualize and decide in the sizing process, just to help me feel more sure that I was making the right decision before the procedure. I am only a few weeks post so I don't know exactly how it will turn out, but I think they will be pretty identical to the picture I used as my goal, which is amazing.
When one has never had breast reduction surgery, one doesn't really know what to expect regarding the results. Six weeks after surgery, I went to be fitted for a bra at a specialty lingerie shop. The sales lady who worked with me said that mine was one of the best results she had seen (and she had been fitting bras for 40 years).
Everything went as described and expected! No surprises, no long waits, not a lot of pain. I can't think of one bad thing to say. Well... it was expensive, but I don't feel that it wasn't worth it in any way. Totally happy.
I didn't have any major discomfort, just as the doctor said it would. I was very happily surprised on having the doctor respond to my emails, he was very considerate in them. The office was very nice to hang out and the receptionists always very polite and friendly. Several of the nurses were super patient and willing to explain my questions.
The entire experience was wonderful! The doctors and staff were friendly, thorough and professional. The recovery process was quick and painless. When I had a question, the Dr. Teitlebaum was quick to respond. I fully appreciate how busy hr is and yet he took the time to reach out to me both before and after the surgery. He and his staff take a personal interest in their patients!
I felt as though all the staff was professional and personal in aiding me with my questions and nerves. Dr Titlebaum took the time to hear my concerns and explain the necessary changes.
All of the staff was attentive and made it a priority to ensure that I was comfortable with everything that would happen before/during/after my surgery. My only negative experience was in recovery. I felt the recovery nurse was rude and tried to rush me out of recovery before I felt well enough to leave safely.
The doctor made me feel very comfortable in what could have been an uncomfortable situation.
I was told what to expect and it all happened the same way. Practically pain free surgery with nice result.
Not only was the staff friendly and the surgeon helpful, but I walked away from my consultation extremely confident in the surgeon's skills. I was on the fence before about having the surgery, but now I'm more than ready to have it done. I'm actually excited.
This is my second time with my experience with Dr. Teitelbaum's office and each individual I've come across, from the Receptionist, Nurse and the Dr. himself has always been a class act. I sincerely cannot ask for anything more, from a service perspective. Each person here is professional, kind and sincere.
I am a 54 year old woman and a long distance runner. I wanted a breast lift and small augmentation. I told dr t I was very concerned about becoming the runner with the fake boobs". I am BEYOND pleased with the results. My breasts are the perfect size and look 100\% natural, even in my running clothes. Dr T really listened to what I wanted and created incredible results because of his enormous skill and experience. "
The end result is exactly what I wanted. My breast reduction went well, healed well and ultimately looks great.
The doctor was extremely thorough in explaining everything, and was quite patient when I asked a LOT of questions, sometimes multiple times. He also saw me again with my husband and answered all of his questions, some of which were the same that I had asked, and was patient, thorough, and very generous with his time.
First impressions are everything, the reception area is beautiful, clean and comfortable the receptionist was friendly and well put together. The beverages and snacks offered are a super nice touch. Dr. Teitelbaum was walking by the front desk and saw us and greeted us with the most friendly hello and said he would be right with us. It made us feel really welcomed to be there. Dr. Teitelbaum spent a good amount of time with us in the consultation really going over everything and making sure we understood what he could and couldn't do for me. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and neat in appearance.
The whole experience was wonderful. Doctor T and staff are amazing in every way!
The surgeon was respectful, kind and knowledgeable. The staff is friendly and warm. The office environment and all paperwork is extremely professional and detailed. I was educated on all aspects of the procedure and recovery. Just very impressed with the before and after photos. Appreciated the surgeons approach to natural looking procedures.
When I met with the Surgeon he made me feel comfortable ... he was easy to talk to and did not feel rushed at all. I trusted that he truly was going to make me look pretty". "
Dr. T knew exactly what implant would be perfect for my body type. He had a confidence about him that made me confident in my decision to follow through with the procedure. He and his staff are kind, helpful, efficient, and skilled. Overall a very positive experience. Although it has only been 3 months my results are obvious and so far soooooo good :) Aloha
The office was beautiful, calm, and organized. Everything was on time and prompt. Dr. Teitelbaum spent just the right amount of time with me - He answered all my questions without providing too much information" but he also didn't rush - I felt he would have stayed with me as long as it took to provide the information needed. I felt very comfortable despite the fact that I was getting the most private and embarrassing part of my body evaluated (my breasts which are small, uneven, and droopy). I've been to other offices to see highly qualified surgeons and it seems most of the time they are chaotic. This was the opposite and exactly the type of experience I want; thus I'm willing to pay a premium for a superior surgeon and excellent service."
Everyone was extremely helpful -specifically Dr. Teitelbaum. I felt safe and in good hands and everyone was nice and patient.
Dr. Steven Teitlebaum listened very carefully to my concerns regarding my individual problem with existing breast implants. His approach to fixing my problem resulted in giving me the utmost confidence that he was the right surgeon for me.Audrey Anderson my nurse was timely responding to all of my questions and concerns both pre-and post operative.The attention I received on the day of surgery was outstanding. The anesthesiologist and nurses that prepared me for the operation were exceptional.This was my sixth surgery with implants and never had so little pain. I am grateful for Dr. Teitlebaum's expertise, surgical skills and his attentive staff. I am happy with the results.
I love coming to the office. Everyone is friendly. Dr. Teitelbaum makes me feel comfortable and answers questions honestly. My results are fantastic.
the staff is amazing!! everyone is so friendly and helpful. dr. T was very honest about what i could accomplish with the surgery and i'm very happy with the results.
Kindness and availability of the staff. Doctor's experience. Beautiful office. Help with scheduling. Very thorough package of info.
Dr. Teitelbaum is so friendly and patient and always has a smile on his face and is always ready to answer all questions. I think he is a fantastic surgeon and will continue to come to him and refer friends and family as well.
Dr Teitelbaum and his staff were very professional and courteous. Vicki, the surgical coordinator was very sweet and explained the process of the consultation with me. During the consultation Dr Teitelbaum was very respectful. He listened and answered all the questions I asked as if he had all time the time in the world. That was comforting to feel that my time and questions were valued. His knowledge and expertise regarding breast augmentation finalized my decision to make him my surgeon.
All information that was available for the procedure, via website and brochure.Vicki's helpfulness and willing to respond all questionsSurgeon easy to talk to
Had a previous procedure with this surgeon, and knew it would most likely be a satisfying experience again
great doctor-very detailed in his work and answered all of my questions
I had a breast lift with Dr. Teitelbaum previously. He did a beautiful job and was available to me before and after the surgery. He is very articulate and I felt comfortable in care. His work is very natural and he has an eye for precision.
The offices were very nice and clean. The employees all had a nice can-do attitude and I really liked Dr. Teitelbaum. Overall it was a very positive experience.
Dr. Teitelbaum did a beautiful job on my breast augmentation and lift. I couldn't be happier with the results! He and his staff are warm and caring, and I felt very happy with the entire process. My breasts look very natural, exactly the size I wanted, and I didn't experience much pain after the procedure. All in all, a great experience!
Everyone with whom I interacted was informed, respectful and courteous. I'm delighted with the results. I look natural and proportionate.
I thought Dr Teitelbaum was extremely friendly and honest. I found him very easy to talk to. He has also been amazing in responding quickly to any questions or concerns I have had post op.
Very friendly staff and Doctor, willing to answer all of my questions and they made me feel comfortable. Above all they seemed very competent and professional at what they do. They assured me if I had any further questions or concerns to please call or meet with them again.
I am so thankful to have found Dr Teitelbaum. He is truly a creative genius. I appreciate most his honesty and straight forward professional opinion. While my nose is not quite what I would like at this moment, he gently reminded me to give it a year before we make any decisions. I appreciate that he is conservative in his surgery approach. Dr T and his staff made my surgery a 5 star experience. I will definitely recommend him to others, and will continue to use him to enhance my own personal beauty. Thank you Dr Teitelbaum. Keep working miracles!
The staff was very professional, yet kind and understanding. I felt very comfortable around the ladies who worked in the office. I think the surgeon is very skilled and I liked how he gave me realistic expectations of the results I would see post-op. There were no surprises and overall the experience was very pleasant.
I felt the entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable. My entire experience thus far has been very positive.
I am please with the seize and shape. Very little down time and minimal discomfort. I went to the care facility afterward which I am very glad I did. Your office did not recommend that I would need it. They said I would be fine. ( I spoke again to the nurse and she concurred i would benefit) I felt much better going there to have some recovery time. I was very pleased with the lip injection! I was not happy with the Botox. There was no effect. I mentioned that at my appointment after and the nurse said it would take 10 days. Never happened. Otherwise a great experience.
The doctor and his staff were highly efficient, knowledgeable and confident. They gave me a lot of valuable information and didn't make me wait around needlessly. The whole consultation seemed to take awhile, but felt like everything done was necessary for purposes of preparing me thoroughly for what would happen during my surgery and recovery and also to help me choose the right size implant for me.
Very satisfied with surgical outcome. Surgeon did an amazing job- very natural looking breasts, very minimal discomfort post-operatively and quick recovery.
From the first phone call u felt comfortable and when u entered the office u felt so comfortable and at home.. The energy and feel of the office is sophisticated yet warm... I felt extremely comfortable with the staff and the Dr. I feel he was thorough and forthright I his explanation and I felt confident in him immediately.. The office and staff were all professional yet warm and genuine as was Dr. Teitlbaum(sp) .. I decided after my consultation to cancel my other consultation scheduled for January. I felt so comfortable I scheduled my surgery for mud March 2014.
I absolutely loved my Doctor, and his staff. The office was lovely, and my experience speaking with the team there was great. Everyone was friendly, provided good service and helped me understand all parts of my procedure. Most importantly I am very please with my augmentation, which looks so real, even to my critical eye. The only issue I had is with some scarring, but that doesn't have to do with the doctor, my body. I would highly recommend Dr. Teitelbaum to my friends and one has already had a surgery with him, after seeing mine!
Dr. teitelbaum and his staff are: smart, professional, compassionate, care about you, know you, perfectionists, pay attention to the smallest and biggest details, provide amazing attention and information, they are outstanding.
Dr. T was a true professional and gifted in his craft. Everybody at the office was experience, organized and guided me smoothly through a successful operation! I'm happy... very happy with my results and I thank Dr. T and his staff from the bottom of my heart. (or shall I say the bottom of my beautiful boob... lol:)
Honestly everyone was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Teitelbaum listened to what I had to say and provided well-informed feedback and information. My surgery experience was very smooth and painless and I really could not be happier with my recovery or my results.
Dr Teitelbaum was extremely professional. The final outcome was exactly as he said it would be. The whole process was made as comfortable as possible. I am very happy I made the decision to go with him & his team. I am also very happy with my new breasts!
Dr. Teitelbaum is so knowledgable and experienced so I felt very confident to be in his care. Although I did developed a complication after my surgery, he was so kind and listened to me and wants me to have the best results. He really is the total package and I am so glad he is my doctor. Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff really strive for perfection. I really made the right choice when I chose him, he is just amazing.
Everyone I interacted with was so nice. Best decision I have ever made; best results ever. I recommend Dr. Teitelbaum to everyone who is considering a procedure. The anesthesiologist personally called me the night before to go over the procedure and the doctor was available anytime I needed him.
this was my second procedure (different procedures) in 4 years with this surgeon. he is a very competent surgeon who listened to what I wanted and delivered just that. his staff all were great and extremely helpful in every step of the process. one of the most important aspects of a good outcome in plastic surgery is to have reasonable expectations, so I had that in mind, therefore I was very pleased with the results both times. i came to him on a recommendation from 2 friends of mine on whom Dr. Teitelbaum had done surgery, and I am very pleased with my results. I have already recommended at least three of my friends to him and one has actually gone ahead and she is also very pleased. the other two are waiting to be done with child bearing! I very highly recommend Dr. Teitelbaum, and I will not hesitate to seek him in the future if I have any further plastic surgery needs. Thank you
Dr. Teitelbaum spend a lot of time with me during my consult. He answered all of my questions and was very patient, while being honest at the same time. Very much appreciated. In addition, when I had questions following the consult, he wrote me personally, and encouraged me to come in again to meet in person, as often as I wanted before the procedure. All of these details made me feel cared for and seen", rather than just another paycheck. I truly felt like he listened to me, and he kept checking in to make sure he understood exactly what I was looking for, while also remaining clear and honest about what to expect. Highly recommended. "
My satisfaction was due to the honesty and caring nature of the surgeon, he and the staff were very nice. I felt like he listened to what I was saying. But I do hope to have another consult before surgery .
The nurse was pleasant and knowledgable, and surgeon was knowledgable and made me feel comfortable
I think the surgeon is clearly very talented and I like the shape of my breast but I don't think he did a good enough job of managing expectations. What I understand to be a D size from the experience of my own breast and what I have seen of friends is very different from what a D is clinically. Given that there doesn't seem to be one definitive definition - I wish we had gone over more pictures so I could more clearly understand size in my instance.
Everything was smooth, simple, and straight forward. I am very satisfied with my results as well
The coordinator is always available for questions. I have not done the surgery yet so I hope things will go well.
Dr. Teitelbaum is a top notch professional, both sensitive, caring and informative. He advised me aesthetically the procedure was unnecessary. While I am still considering the procedure, I was unaware of the recovery time (6 weeks). So, I am thankful for his expertise and kindness.
I found the staff to be of great assistance throughout the appointment with information, resources and kindness. I found the Dr to be genuine in his concern and honest in explaining the best approach, alternatives, expected outcome and concerns. Dr Teitlebaum. Patients have a responsibility to be prepared for their appointments by reviewing resources and material made available so that the conversation is the best use of time for all concerned. My consultation was great.
Dr. Teitelbaum took a lot of time with me and made me feel very comfortable. I felt like I could ask him anything about the procedure and not feel silly. The office is very comforting and calming, and the staff were all very nice. Looking forward to my procedure!
Dr. Teitelbaum was very attentive and thorough in the consultation. He explained the approach that he would take to the procedures I was considering and answered all of my questions. He is obviously very talented and experienced. The office is very nicely decorated and comfortable. His staff is friendly and helpful. It was a good experience.
Staff was very pleasant and Dr Teitlebaum was bery straight forward and neutral during my consultation. He did not try to upsell me on any additional services. He was confident, and not arrogant as Ive read in other reviews.
I had a phone consultation because I am from out of town. Everything went smoothly. I didn't have too many questions because Dr. Teitelbaum has a very thorough and extensive website which provided most of the information I needed to know. I felt very comfortable talking with him and am confident that he will do a great job with me.
I was impressed with the professionalism and personality of the surgeon. I really appreciated the amount of time he took for just a consult. What won me over was the fact that despite his popularity and good reputation, he was not at all hollywood/celebrity phony" or full of himself. He came off as a highly educated serious doctor. He was also very honest in discouraging me from certain procedures he thought I did not need."
I thought the doctor really understood what I was looking for and gave me a great result. I felt like I was in good hands throughout the process.
More important than being extremely friendly, is being extremely professional. And this is the feeling I got from Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff. Vicki and Audrey were always very quick to return my messages and emails, which made me feel important, and that they took me seriously, and would take the best care of me. I really appreciated Audrey spending time with me when I went in for the second time, as I wasn't 100\% sure about the size we had discussed during the first visit. She didn't rush me along, and we sat at the computer, and tried different sizing, profiles, until I reached my decision. I wish the doctor would have been available, but he may have been operating at the time. Also, if I was able to access the simulation program from my home computer, that would also be of great value. So that I could look at the different sizes and profiles.My decision to recommend the practice will be based mostly on the day of surgery and post-op, which is in 2 weeks.
Dr. Steven Teitelbaum is an example of the highest quality combination of Doctor, surgeon, and gentleman. He and his office made everything easy and as comfortable as possible. (Love) :)
The office itself was very plush. Dr Teitelbaum spoke knowledgably on the subject of breast augmentation and listened to my concerns. The office assistant helpled ease me through choosing the best implant for my body type and got me a size down when I feared they were too large. They showed me with a 3d picture device a projected visualisation of what the outcome would be which was so helpful in making my decision and in convincing other people they would look beautiful but not fake.I scheduled the surgery for 3 weeks later.
I had the most wonderful experience. Everyone made me feel so comfortableand prepared for my surgery. Dr. Teitelbaum was just amazing. He did such a wonderful job, and really went out of his way to make me feel confident and comfortable with my decision. I have already told many of my friends about him.I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!
The surgeon was completely thorough with his evaluation and dictation. He was a good listener and did not treat my case as yet another breast augmentation etc. His staff was extremely professional and helpful! He also holds his confidentiality for his other patients with high regard.
The entire process, from consult to recovery was outstanding due to the attention of Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff. The pre-op materials were extremely thorough so expectations were clearly defined. The service and attention were top-notch. There is no way I could describe my happiness with the results in less than 1200 words. This was my 4th capsular contracture revision surgery (first with Dr. Teitelbaum) and I couldn't be happier with the difference. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Teitelbaum and Audrey for such wonderful care.
I felt the surgeon and staff were very positive and efficient. Everyone was friendly and inviting, all my questions were answered, I was made to feel very comfortable and welcomed.
My result was exactly what I expected and hoped for. The doctor listened carefully to my preferences and carried out the procedure just as I wished.
I think the finished product was disappointing. When I flex my breast muscles, you can clearly see that I have had surgery and makes the implant and my breast look disfigured. I continue to have a lumpy pocket on my left breast that causes me discomfort when I wear a bra and when I touch it, it can give me tingles. I have no sensation in either breast, and I cannot feel it when I touch the sides of them. One of my surgery scars finishes close to my sternum in a straight line and does not follow my breast shape, making it clearly visible in comparison to the other and is not hidden. I am extremely self conscious about this scar.
I thought the staff was friendly. Office was nice and comfortable but most important the Dr. made me comfortable and I really felt he understood the look" I wanted to achieve and helped me find the best way to do that."
The attentiveness and expertise of all staff members and surgeon.
I don't feel like I was given a true representation of the pain involved with my surgery.The paperwork was confusing since I had lipo as well. They were in harsh contrast of what do while recovering.When I would call for clarification, everyone would act as if I was being overly paranoid or silly. It is STILL surgery and while you may deal with on the regular basis, many people don't.I felt as if I was on an assembly line for lady's getting breast aug. Get them, get them out.I was still really woozy and drowsy when they insisted that I get up and leave.When I woke up, I told her I couldn't breathe and the nurse responded in a condescending tone: Yeah, well, you just had your breasts done."Again, lack of empathy was astounding.I said that I didn't want them to be too big, and they are just that, too big. I feel like people didn't listen to what I was saying.I didn't receive a call from anyone during my recovery. No call to see how I was doing, to check in...nada.I had some issues that I had to call about and, again, I was spoken to like I was an idiot when the issue should have been mentioned beforehand.The surgery room had sheets and things strewn about."
When I walked into the waiting room the receptionist was very cold and made me feel that I was an inconvenience rather than a patient. She was short and blunt when I asked her questions. It made my first visit to a plastic surgeon feel very uncomfortable. She made me feel that I didn't belong to be sitting in her waiting room.
The results were absolutely, mind-blowingly out of this world fantastic. The experience was just as incredible. Love Dr. Teitelbaum, love his staff, his office, the ease if the surgery and recovery. There are not enough words to describe how pleased I am. I would never consider going to, or referring anyone to, another Doctor (and his office!).
Dr. Teitelbaum is a great surgeon and I like that he is also conservative . I am so happy with my results and totally trust him. I have already recommended him to my friends. He awsered all of my emails right away and was always professional.
The surgeon clearly knew what he was talking about. The staff was friendly and discreet.
Efficient booking for my consultation at a date and time that suited my schedule. Knowledgeable and sincere nursing staff. Clear and concise advice from the surgeon on what would work best for me.
I would like to have received photos of before and after approximations from consultation.
The doctor (Dr. Teitelbaum) and patient coordinator (Vicki Koplow) made the experience very personal, and offered their opinions. I felt extremely comfortable with them, and very much at ease. Even though it was a phone consultation, I felt connected as if I were in person! I absolutely cannot wait until August when I have my surgery!
Highly qualified surgeon. Great staff delivering clear instructions regarding procedure. Clean facility fair market going price for the procedure. Simplified and easy instructions for recovery made it even better. I recommended to 2 friends who will be using Doctor in the future.
I was satisfied with my experience. I would have liked more time with the doctor to ask questions to further prepare myself with the outcome. I would still return to this office and recommend to others.
Very highly satisfied with surgical experience except. No routine follow up calls and outcome of size not to complete satisfaction considering amount paid for procedure.
There was one member of the team who seemed emotionally removed. She did take great care of me. I would rather have strong confidence in her abilities than to have someone who conveys compassion more. But, I would say that is something that did impact my overall experience. However, I wouldn't let that take away from everything else Dr. T and his staff offered. They all were great.
I felt that the Doctor did not take my concerns seriously (they were very detailed and based on actual scientific research that I had done). I felt that he was a bit condescending and did not explain his reasoning thoroughly enough. I was also very annoyed that I didn't get to experience the 3-d simulator. I was not informed that it wouldn't be available that day. If I had known, I would have rescheduled. I was visiting from out of state so there is no way I could return to get the 3d experience.
My wish was to discuss about the cohesive implant and achieve a natural look. Dr. T was the 5th surgeon I saw, all stating I should go BIG 330-375 cc. I was confused. But when I walked out of Dr. T's office, I felt back to my original self which was to stay within proportion of my body frame. Dr. T was the only one who strongly suggested a smaller, yet reasonable size 270 cc and I'm feeling really good about my future surgery date. Mostly important, Dr. T also had the most experience working with the cohesive implants and really knew his stuff!
My decision to use your services over other highly skilled professionals was based on my comfort level of the Doctor and his staff. I trust them , Vicki Koplow is a friend of mine and that also swayed my decision to go to you over other doctors . She encouraged me to do when I was on the fence and made me feel great about my decision that I have been mulling over for years .
Dr. Teitelbaum corrected a previous surgery that was unsuccessful and left me very unhappy.
I originally went in for a consultation on a breast lift with a secondary questions on liposuction. The doctor took the time to understand the results I was looking for and set expectations on what I could expect. I was also very nervous when I walked in. By the end of the appointment I was calm and confident in my decision and scheduled my procedure the following day. I am very excited to see my results and could not have been happier with the entire experience. I would also like to mention that Vicki Koplow was fantastic in her communication and her follow up. She is professional and enthusiastic about what she does and it shows.
I thought Dr. Teitlebaum was very warm and he made me feel like I would be in good hands with him. I have had 5 consultations and he was in the top 2. The only reason I may go with another doctor is I know 2 people who have had this procedure that I was able to see with my own eyes.
I was very impressed with the amount of time that Dr. Teitelbaum took with me and I didn't feel rushed at all. He was thoroughly honest which made me even more confident to schedule with him, rather than just telling me what I wanted to hear. Dr. Teitelbaum and Vicki went above and beyond to meet my scheduling needs. At this point, I couldn't be any more pleased with the process.
Very comfortable staff. Clean. comfortable and calm feeling. not rushed at all. willing to answer questions. confidence.
you have to be really amazing to get a Highly Satisfied vote from me. let's see how the surgery goes!
Overall, everything was highly organized and professional, with the exception of an unfriendly, slightly condescending receptionist prior to my surgery. Dr. Teitlebaum seemed very knowledgeable and I respected and appreciated him.
Dr Teitelbaum was extremely thorough in taking my history and he had a lot of good options for improving my chances of fixing capsular contracture.
He managed my expectations. Audrey was great to deal with and Vicki was very helpful as well.
I was very highly satisfied because the staff and surgeon took their time with me. They were honest and straight forward. They did not make me feel uncomfortable for any reason and then when speaking about the price i did not feel pressured to jump into it right away. I am also satisfied that they did a follow up on me a week later and also for asking patients to take to a survey!Thank You!!!
FT T was patient, could visualize what I wanted and what I needed to create that natural look.
Everything about the office made me very comfortable, the staff was very helpful and nice to talk to and answered all my questions before I could even ask them.
Dr. Teitlebaum was very patient, knowledgeable, and exuded confidence, which put me at ease. I was nervous and felt relieved to find him both candid and sensitive to my needs. The office is professional, soothing and pretty and the personnel are friendly and helpful without being pushy or judge mental. The supporting materials provided of the doctor's published works and explanations of procedures were invaluable,
I was highly satisfied as I was informed of a breast removal that I did not know was an option. Im very happy to not have implants. Happy about my size and think that Dr Tetitelbaum is an extraordinary Dr.
Loved the staff, loved the doctor. Loved that he met me in the lobby to bring me back. Surgery coordinator was personable, comfortable, great converstaion. Doctor extremely particular, discriminating, and well-educated. I am endlessly confident in his abilities and feel very comfortable with the office and staff. I can't wait for my appt!
Surgeon made me feel very comfortable and explanation of procedure and what to expect was very thorough and easy to understand. Accomodated me in the scheduling of my procedure.
I think that everyone in the office is nice and professional!1 The Dr. is a very nice man. All around good. I have already recommended him to several people. Thank you Dr. T.
Dr. Teitelbaum was honest and thorough throughout the entire process. He listed to my circumstances and created a treatment that would cater to my objectives (mom of 2 young ones with an umbilical hernia). His plan and treatment was not cookie cutter and he paid attention to every detail pre, during and post operation. He is a wonderful surgeon and his staff is amazing at making you feel comfortable and at ease.
I felt Dr. Teitelbaum was rushed... on a few occasions he had his hand on the door, ready to leave, as I asked my questions, which I didn't particularly like.I'm not 100\% satisfied with the surgical results. I was told that some of the asymetry would correct itself over time, but that has not happened yet.The compression garmet wasnt very good. I found many better alternatives online. I would think for the price I paid, that the Dr. could provide the best compression garments available.
they were able to get me in for a consultation very quickly, the appointment started on time, the doctor was realistic and understanding. on the whole, it was just a very easy experience
Great support from all the staff and the surgeon. Extremely experienced and trained nurses, who were very honest with their answers to my questions, and offered detailed caring recommendations that helped me avoid some mistakes during the recovery process. It was absolutely unbelievable how little discomfort I felt after the surgery compared to everyone's expectations. I did not feel like I had been operated on, but just as though I over-excersized at the gym and had sore muscles. The results look natural, beautiful, STUNNING even, and I finally feel free from the curse of constantly wanting to hide my figure, and fighting insecurities while wearing certain clothes. Very happy :)
The doctor is great but very conservative in his views, which is fine but I didn't feel it was the best match in view for what I wanted.
Dr. T and his staff are amazing! I felt cared for and respected at every step of the way.
Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff were amazing every step of the way. They ensured I was always comfortable mentally and physically. Dr. Teitelbaum's work was exactly what I was looking for and my results have made me completely ecstatic.
Dr. Teitelbaum was very friendly and patient and had a great personality. He came highly recommended from many friends and as soon as I met him for my consultation I knew he was the right doctor for me. He explained everything that he could do to achieve the best outcome for what I wanted. I am so extremely happy with my results!! His work is amazing.
I thought Dr. Teitelbaum was realistic, honest and compassionate regarding my situation...I really felt he helped with my decision process....really felt very confident about his abilities!Still a bit conflicted as to what way to go and with that confident I will proceed very soon!
They answered my questions, addressed my concerns, and scheduled promptly.
The pt coordinator was not genuine, it seemed hard for her to be nice and she seemed irritated with me because I needed help with my insurance and they don't do insurance. so the receptionist(lady at the front desk) is actually my life saver and really got all the info for me and helped me get the paper work & telephone calls in order. Also I was dissappointed regarding the pain medication that was offered to me right before surgery. Of course I don't want to be in pain, but the was another $500 out of pocket sprung up on me. If they would do insurance that would be wonderful and 100\%satisfaction at least for pts like me. And lastly I did not know the aftercare facility was not covered by insurance that means money going into their pocket instead of doing another procedure with my surgeon. I wish they were more intune with insurance stuff. And I didn't know I wouldn't be have sex for 6 weeks, thats kind of important to know and my belly button looks a little high but that's just my opinion I would of like to see where it was going to land.
I felt that I waited in the exam room for a long time. I spent a long time with other medical staff and very little time with the surgeon.
DR. Teitelbaum was warm and knowledgable. he was great! Vicki, his surgical coordinator was very nice and very helpful. My husband and i were so impressed with there professionalism, warmth and information provided to us by the entire staff. Couldn't recommend them high enough!
On the day of my surgery I was kept waiting in the exam room for nearly 4 hours before taken into the operating room.
The doctor & staff were professional, knowledgeable and kind. I was treated respectfully and my questions were answered fully.
Never had plastic surgery before, so I was pretty nervous, but Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff made me feel at ease and confident about my decision about having surgery and helped me decide what size for breast augmentation. They were SO right! Also, I appreciated that Dr. teitelbaum took his time during my consult to fully understand, or decipher rather, what I wanted, and didn't try to upsell me on anything. In fact, loved that he tried to talk me OUT of having a little lipo, and also made sure to convey what my expectations should be. He's kind, professional and classy. A breath of fresh air in this superficial town.
The confidence and experience of the surgeon left me highly satisfied
I felt that the doctor and patient co ordination were very respectful, truly listened to my concerns and made me feel as comfortable and confident as possible
Staff and doctor very very nice and considerate. Answered all my questions. Doctor was very confident and honest and didn't push" things on me. He gave an honest opinion. "
There is a level of professionalism with Dr. Teitelbaum's office that is unparalleled. I had 5 different consultations from board certified plastic surgeons and only one other surgeon was close. Additionally, during my consultation Dr. Teitelbaum recorded notes and 2 days after my visit I received a letter along with a transcription of the notes. In addition to the professional and personal attention I received, as well as the amount of information on their website, I am quite impressed with Dr. Teitelbaum's Curriculum Vitae and that was a deciding factor for me. I can't imagine chosing another surgeon for my revision surgery.
I had a great experience, the entire team was outstanding. The facility is wonderful, Dr T is amazing....can't say enough.
Doctor seemed to care about my situation and the coordinator lady was very friendly and likable and knowledgable.
I love Dr. T. He was professional and strait to the point. He was able to give me even better then expected results. I told him what I wanted, he used his best judgement and now I look amazing! Everyone who sees my breasts are amazed at how beautiful they look so soon after surgery and they are only getting better. Thank you Dr. T!!!
The only complaint I have is having consultation with the doctor in treatment/surgery room? I think it would have been nicer to have consultation with the doctor in his office and then been offered to see the operating room or the room where I would have my surgery if it was available for me to see and not being used. Other wise very happy with the way consultation, etc was conducted.
i was very impressed with my results. in a surgery that seems deceptively simple, i found it was not. there are many choices to make. having many consults with Dr T, i obtained exactly what i was looking for.. i was able to very mobile, not in pain and had no post anesthesia nausea. Dr T was very available for any questions or concerns that i had once the surgery was over. that was very important.
In researching doctors for my procedure, I visited 5 surgeons. Dr. Teitelbaum was by far the best surgeon I met with. He was very thorough during the consultation. He spent a lot of time understanding and discussing my specific issues and concerns. He was also very knowledgeable about how to fix my issue. I also appreciated the follow-up email I received the day after the consultation. The email was not generic in any way, but instead very helpful and supportive. He made me feel like he was very interested in my specific case and wanted to help me make an informed, educated decision for my surgery.
Dr. T and his staff were awesome at answering all my questions and making me feel comfortable. This was my first surgery ever therefore I was really nervous but they did everything they could to reassure me and answer all my questions. Dr. T. is an artist. I love the outcome of my breasts. He did a great job of reassuring my husband I will be taken care of and answered all his questions. I would recommend Dr. T. to anyone wanting a breast augmentation with natural results.
Dr. Steven Teitelbaum is very nice & knows what he is doing. His staff is very friendly & helpful. The only reason I did not schedule my surgery with him right now is due to me not having the finances at this time.
The doctor spent a great amount of time with me, about 45 min, on my consult. He thoroughly explained what he felt would be best, and actually tried to talk me OUT of a procedure! He seemed to have my best interest. Felt at ease with him, and felt more confident about what I really wanted when I left. I've had 3 previous consults with well renowned surgeons, and always felt rushed, insecure, and never felt confident enough to book surgery with them. Now praying I feel great about the outcome with Dr. Teitelbaum.
When considering such an invasive, albeit common, procedure, it is important to me that I feel as comfortable with and trusting of the staff and surgeon as possible. My needs were met on all levels and I am thrilled with my decision to go with Dr. T and his office. Dr. T was also more welcoming, kind and knowledgeable with all of my questions and took his time to make sure I was completely satisfied that all of my needs and questions were met. Additionally, when I had post-consult follow up questions, his staff arranged for me to return to the office and speak to them in person. It is and has been the best Dr. experience and interaction (plastic surgeon or otherwise) that I've ever had. Thank you.
Over all I was highly satisfied with everything.....the entire staff was great. I believe the Dr was running behind schedule that day which is common...so I would say the waiting of 45 minutes in the exam room was the only downfall cause I felt he was a little rushed.Otherwise I am very happy.
Just felt that surgeon could have been more sensitive to what what a less than perfect job that he previously performed.
Office is very professional and doctor answered all my questions and gave me tips to better improve my appearance. Never once hesitated with what needed to be done and prices are very fair.
I had a brow lift and rhino done by Dr. Teitelbaum. I enjoyed all of my visits with him (he and his staff are professional and funny--a great combo). I am thrilled with my results. They are not obvious at all. People keep telling me how great I look, but no one seems to be able to pinpoint why. This has definitely been the best money I have spent--better even than buying my home, paying my children's orthodontics or even their college tuition! I say Go for it!" But only with Dr. Teitelbaum."
i thought the entire process from start to finish was warm and professional.
I am SOOO happy with the results. I would recommend Dr Teitlebaum to anyone interested in pursuing plastic surgery.
Dr. Teitelbaum and his coordinator Vicki were very knowledgeable and patient in answering all questions. Dr. T seems experienced and honest, unlike a sales person.
The doctor was very professional and educatedMe what and why I needed sugery in certain areas.
Dr. Teitelbaum is extraordinary and an absolutely amazing surgeon. I couldn't have been happier with my experience and results. Overall, the office, staff and physician are impeccable in their level of care and attention to detail. The highest compliment is to recommend friends and family and I have referred both.
I think the doctor's work is very good. He is a kooky guy, but he seems very skilled.
This is my third surgery with Dr. Teitelbaum (breast lift, chin implant, and brow lift/rhino). He is excellent technically and is also very compassionate. I was a nervous patient (about the rhinoplasty) and he and his staff were patient with me until I could make a decision I was comfortable with. I am thrilled with the results: I look like me, only prettier. I would--and do--recommend him to anyone considering any plastic surgery procedure. His nursing and office staff are excellent, too.
i loved dr T i consider him nothing less than an artist. my surgery lead to beautiful results... it was his staffs failure to communicate with patience who commute to the clinic that is the one and only draw back to his practice...unfortunately i wasnt told i had to stay overnight and had to make last second arrangements as i was waiting to walk into my surgery i was on the phone trying to figure out where i was going to send my newborn and my 5 yr old that was very scary and trying to find an available hotel but the coordinator did help me with that, but still a huge disappointment but when i finally got it figured out and came out of surgery, it made up for all that because i was so overwhelmed by how beautiful my results were hes fantastic the office just needs to work on lack of communication- will recommend to friends etc just some constructive criticism :) thanks
Pre-surgery information was useful. Office staff was very friendly and professional. The results of my procedure were even better than I had hoped.
Excellent care provided by Dr. Teitelbaum and his entire staff. Outcome of surgery exceeded expectations (very little pain/discomfort).
I was never explained that there would be stiches , I had to wait forever for surgery because he had trouble with patient before meI was then rushed inAnd when I woke surgeon was not there to give me a status and it seemed the staff wanted out and wanted out fast because it was after 5. I woke up and the anastogioligist bolted outI was in extreme pain with a long drive wanted heavier drugsWhen I came back he took stitches out I had to go back to work I'm guessing the reason why I have keloid scars all over my body is because the stiches came out too soon. I was never invited back for after pics
Everyone on Dr. Titelbaums staff was friendly, informative, helpful.I spent the night at an after care facility near their office and experienced more pain than anticipated. I had rx delivered in less than 30 minutes. Excellent responsiveness to patient.
Due to surgery being nothing to take lightly and it being my first time. The surgeon and staff made me feel extremely comfortable. They were all patient and pleased to help and answer questions. The environment was very calm and relaxing which helped me relax. Even after I paid and had the surgery completed, I still receive the same treatment which very rarely happens. I'm very appreciative and thankful.
Dr. Teitelbaum was very informative and asked me many questions about what I wanted to get done. He was patient and made me feel very comfortable . He made me feel good about my decision to get my surgery. His staff was very sweet and friendly .
Dr. Teitelbaum was very attuned to my thoughts and wishes. I felt very comfortable in his presence. If and when I have a procedure, it will be with him.
Office staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Teitelbaum is very thorough and not pushy at all-I didn't feel like I was getting a sales pitch. He told me to take my time with my decision, and they allowed me to come back with follow up questions. Very professional experience.
Dr. Teitelbaum listened very carefully to what I wanted and repeated things back to me to make sure he understood clearly what I wanted. He was so knowledgeable and I trusted that his recommendations for specifics, based on what I communicated to him, were what would be best for me. It was comforting when he communicated to me that I could call him any time of day if I had any questions or concerns. The staff was also very friendly and professional. My recovery was instant, I was up and about immediately with no pain, and to me that says a lot about the quality of care I received.
Doctor Teitelbaums skills were excellent & exceeded my expectations.
I was satisfied but the healing process took longer that I expected. I realize it takes a while but wanted to see a distinct difference sooner. I had some minor infection issues which affected my recovery time. I consider myself still recovering! I will probably be extremely satisfied in a month or two at least that is my plan.
Above all else, my primary concern with getting plastic surgery was having it done by someone that I had confidence in. Dr. Teitelbaum is highly skilled, and I felt confident in his abilities. I was really nervous about the fact that I might have needed a breast lift, but being that Dr. Teitelbaum is overly qualified and trustworthy, I knew it would not be an issue. If I had gone anywhere else, I would not have had the confidence to go through with the surgery at all.
I was very impressed with the overall friendliness of the staff (receptionist, nurse, and patient coordinator). They have been with Dr. Teitelbaum for many years which made me feel a lot more comfortable with going through with the procedure. Dr. Teitelbaum was very knowledgable and understood what I wanted. He answered all of my questions in a clearly and directly.
The doctor was extremely knowledgeable and professional and I trusted him because of this. The practice was also extremely professionally run - I could always reach someone to answer questions, the paperwork was thorough and informative and everything went smoothly and as I had been prepared for. Finally, I am thrilled with the outcome. I have already recommended Dr Teitelbaum to numerous friends.
I feel very confident in the Dr's ability based on the before/after pictures on the website, and the information he provided during my consultation. Vicki, has been FANTASTIC! It was she who really sealed the deal. I felt so confident about the team and the process that I selected this Dr after meeting with three others.
I found Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff to be extremely professional, helpful, skilled, and caring. Plastic surgery is a very sensitive and often emotionally charged experience for patients. Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff understand this and they were very patient and empathetic while I made up my mind and asked endless questions. I am satisfied with the results; they surpass what I hoped for.
Very thorough and professional. Friendly staff. Excellent facility.
The fat removal from my cheeks made a major positive difference in the shape of my face.
Liked surgeon's knowledge and demeanor. Seemed highly capable. Businesslike but kind. Good photos representing the surgery I was interested in.
The only reason why I was not highly satisfied was because of the fact that I felt rushed by the surgeon. I know he is a highly skilled surgeon and will do a great job on my surgery though.
The surgeon was very attentive and understood what my expectations were. When discussing breast augmentation he actually advised that a lift was all I needed due to the density and current size. He listened to my concern regarding a totally different procedure I was going to get done that has nothing to do cosmetically. He had the coordinator actually pull up information on the meds I was on to see what effect they can have on the surgery. I felt very assured leaving the consultation that I booked the surgery date two days later. Would have done it right after the consult but needed to establish financing first.
Dr. Teitelbaum is extremely focused and knowledgeable in the surgery I was having. His confidence and credentials gave me a lot of ease in the entire process. Everyone working with him are very knowledgeable and kind as well. Dr. T is not one to be smooth talking or extremely charming, but that is not what is most important when finding a Dr. He is exactly what I was looking for and needed in a plastic surgeon. He gave me beautiful natural results. Could not be happier and would recommend him to everyone who's looking a plastic surgeon for breast augmentation.
I went in feeling like an old person and came away after eye surgery feeling much, much, younger and looking much younger. Dr. Teitlebaum's approach was conservative and perfect for my situation. A lovely Dr., not too talky or in love with the sound of his own voice. A really good experience.....
My appearance of my eyelids is highly improved and the surgery makes me youger.
The staff was well organized and the surgeon took my input and incorporated i in to the plan. He did not patronize me. The surgeon was up to date on the latest approaches and did not just rely on what he had been doing the last 20 years.
Very considerate and professional staff, professional and caring doctor/surgeon. Upon initial consultation, I would consider this doctor/surgeon to perform this very personal, important, and life changing procedure.
As a first time customer i did not know what to ask. the fees for the physical examination were much higher than i was told. 900 dollars. then a separate lab fee for 179. and another cost of 100 that i need to call and confirm what for. for benadryl and motrin and antibiotic i paid 150 dollars to get it downstairs. I would have tried to cut costs if i knew a little more or if they gave me more info on the fees there.
I appreciated Dr. Teitelbaum's professionalism and felt he understood what I had hoped to accomplish with my surgery. However, as much as I would like to have this surgery for myself - financially I can't bring myself to spend the estimated cost to have this procedure done.
I didn't feel rushed necessarily, but after my consultation, I wished I had been able to spend a little more time trying out the implants in the sports bra. I left still questioning what size I would be most satisfied with, and I feel like I need one more office visit to feel confident in the size I choose before scheduling the procedure.
Dr. Teitelbaum is a skilled surgeon. Thus my recovery was easy with no bruising, or complications. I am extremely happy with my outcome of surgery. I am so relieved I chose Dr. Teitelbaum, I highly recommend him!.
One thing I would like to know more about is the implant type and manufacturer. And also Pros and cons about my implant silicone
The inviting office atmosphere and friendly staff were important, but not nearly as much as the doctor himself. He was warm yet direct in his approach, and I never felt rushed. He carefully explained my options and listened patiently to my questions...and actually looked me in the eye, unlike other surgeons I've been to! I scheduled my appointment later that same day.
I am putting my full confidence in Dr. Teitlebaum and his staff. This is a big decision and although very nervous, I feel that I have chosen the right team for my surgery.Thank you for all your kind support and I'll see you on July 31, get a good nights sleep on the 30th!!!!!
The staff & doctor were amazing. The expertise of the doctor is a true gift. The staff was kind and friendly. All the preop & postoperative was explained well & paperwork provided that answered questions we had.
Professionalism of surgeon and staff. Built my confidence in them. End results so natural. Everyone seemed genuinely interested in me and the success of the surgery. Surgeon is sensible and artistic in decisions and skills.
I felt the surgeon and his staff explain everything to me very thouroughly. the surgeon also did not try and persudae me to any unnecessary procedures done. I felt his ability to understand my needs while also proviing me with his opinion was of great value. His staff was very professional and I felt they respected my time by not having me wait at all.
The overall experience was wonderful! The staff was very friendly and Dr. Teitelbaum exceeded my expectations. The procedure went very smoothly and I was well informed about what to expect before and after the surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Teitelbaum to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon and I would definitely go back to if I am looking for additional work.
Went to Dr. Teitelbaum for an augmentation revision to correct symmastia. I chose him because he was the most knowledgeable about that type of procedure and how best to correct my problem. He was able to explain to me how the procedure would work, and was very accurate in terms of post-operative pain and discomfort. I am extremely happy with the results and will go back to him when it is eventually time to have the implants replaced. If you are looking for a surgeon who is realistic and emphasizes a natural look he is the best. The maker of my new implants was giving samples of Botox as well, and now Dr. T has got me hooked! I would highly recommend going to see him for a consultation if you have the same issue I did, or getting implants for the first time.
We are waiting to hear back from insurance company. No date has been set.Everyone was nice and organized.
Dr. Teitelbaum listened to me and gave me a very logical and detailed recommendation for a breast lift over an augmentation. Both my husband and I were highly impressed with his expertise and excellent surgical results.
Dr. Teitelbaum and his staff were very professional and accommodating. I felt very comfortable and continue to know that I made the right decision choosing this practice and surgeon for my surgery. The weeks following my consultation have been spent with confidence in my surgeon, and I cannot wait until I get back there for my surgery.
I have had procedures performed by this surgeon and have been very satisfied. I feel safe with the operating procedures. The surgeon listens to my desires for an improved appearance and offers excellent suggestions.
It was thorough but also quick, and I left the office feeling more comfortable moving forward with having the procedure.
Dr. T provides ample amounts of information regarding breast augmentation via the internet so you can come very prepared for the consultation. This helps build a great deal of trust in his methods.
I feel like this surgery is a big deal and when I asked a lot of questions, no matter how silly", the staff answered my questions happily and thoroughly. I never felt as if I were being rushed to leave. My appointment was a little late to start, however knowing how long he took with me to make sure I was comfortable, I imagine he takes the time with other patients, and do waiting was not an issue for me. "
I received wonderful care and attention, I had a smooth surgery and recovery, and the results are exactly what I wanted!
The patient coordinator was able to set an appointment up for me in a very timely manner and they were able to secure a surgical spot to meet my schedule. I am still recovering but so far am very pleased with the results.
The doctor took his time and had listened to my needs. He was direct, gave options and made me feel ver comfotabke
I was very pleased with my experience at this office. Everyone is very professional and kind. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else!
None of the written or verbal instructions adequately informed me about the difficulty of the recovery or the length of the recovery. Specifically I could not lift my chin very much and this lasted 9 weeks. This was never mentioned and therefore caused unnecessary anxiety on my part.
Found Dr. Teitelbaum and his team to be highly professional, friendly and efficient.
Everyone was very nice and I appreciate the videos on website and all the printed info to review
I felt that the surgeon answered all of my questions and paid special attention to my concerns and answered with all possible answers. His bedside manor, personality and handle of care far exceeded any of my epectations. The office was beautiful, neat and clean. very important for a first impression!
The surgeon is clearly one of the best. He had a great personality and I trust him. The consultation was a life changer in itself, and all of my questions were answered. The only reason I am not scheduling the breast augmentation is because I decided I do not want or need the surgery. However, when I am ready for cosmetic surgery in the future, I will definitely return to this surgeon without a doubt.
The doctor and staff were highly knowledgeable, and all of my questions were answered. The quote ended up being less than I expected for such a highly trained surgeon.
The experience met all of my expectations and I left feeling excited about the procedure.
The staff was very welcoming and I fel very comfortable..my girlfriend who has gone prior had a very great experience..I look forward to my procedure
I would appreciate if the doctor would return my email just so that I may have peace of mind when working with him and his staff. These procedures are extremely important and come with risks, so I need to feel as comfortable as possible.
I had a severe case of capsular contracture and the results of my revision surgery exceeded my expectations. The staff was very professional and the office is very efficient.
Pleased with the results. Very positive experience. Staff very considerate and thoughtful.
I felt the entire practice was extremely professional, knowledgable and friendly. The doctor clearly had a great deal of experience and knowledge regarding my surgery and my issues pertaining to it. I appreciated the way the doctor as well as each member of the staff with whom I had contact, took my concerns seriously and treated me with kindness and respect.I appreciated the time the doctor spent reading my previous files and giving my all the information and advice I needed. If I require an additional surgery, I will absolutely be calling on this practice and this surgeon.
For the qualification and the warmth of the surgeon and staff, very professional,frendly
It was an easy and well-planned experience from start to finish, with great, natural results. The post-surgery time was easier than having a flu.
Unfortunately there is very little if any improvement in the area under my chin that had a lipo procedure. I am still self conscious about my profile but I realize that there are no guarantees with sx that the outcome will be what you want. I realize this is no refection on the doctor nor the facility - I would most definitely return to the doctor if I were to decide on more procedures. He is excellent! I felt extremely comfortable with him right away and would recommend him to friends and family
2 of my friends had breast augmentations by Dr.Teitlebaum. I was very pleased that my results were as good as theirs. Dr. T was very professional and did a great job. Not much of a sense of humor though. When I'm nervous I sometimes crack jokes, and it was obvious he was not amused. My only dissatisfaction w/ the experience was I felt a little rushed out of the recovery room. I've never been under anaesthesia before, and coming out of it was more uncomfortable than I expected. I felt I was pushed out of the room a little too quickly to make room for the next patient.
Every time I called or emailed the surgeon, nurse or patient coordinator, I was provided a response almost immediately. The surgeon was very receptive to all of my questions and thoughts. I never felt rushed when I was discussing the procedure and my concerns with him. The patient coordinator was very friendly and helpful. The nurse was able to calm me down prior to the procedure and the anesthesiologist was very kind and helpful and called prior to and after the procedure to ensure I was okay and taking the correct precautions prior to surgery. The packet I received was more than helpful and the office was very inviting and clean. I absolutely love my results and I did not have any doubt when entering the surgery that I would not. Everyone was professional and the before/after photos and overall feeling provided by the office and the surgeon were proof that I was not going to be disappointed. I would 100\% recommend this surgeon and his team to anyone.
The clarity of instructions pre and post op. The timeliness of office visits and the kindness of the nurses. The honest, no fluff explanations given by the MD.
Very happy with outcome of procedure. Happy with the surgeon's information before the procedure, and the outcome is as expected or better.
Some of the front office staff are cold and snobby, this made me feel a little out of place. I was mentally unprepared for the amount of pain that I had post-op. But my overall experience was fine and Dr. Teitelbaum fixed what was a difficult issue I had with my previous breast augmentation.
my experience was unbelievably wonderful.the staff was exceptional and dr. teitelbaum did an amazing job on me.throughout the entire experience there was never a moment I felt uncomfortableeveryone took amazing care!!!!!!
I had surgery with Dr. Teitelbaum and I'm thrilled with my results, as well as him as a surgeon. I came back for a follow up visit, as requested by the doctor. I was there on a particularly busy day and therefore, I felt as though there were a few questions left unanswered as Dr. Teitelbaum needed to move on to other patients. I think he's an amazing surgeon, and I will happily continue to refer patients to him.
High level of professionalism while incorporating a sincere interest in my questions/concerns. All staff seemed competent and friendly. No one tried to rush me through any part of the consultation.
Everything was very straight forward and easy. No complications. Very happy with result.
I was very prepared when I went into the consultation because of the amount of information on the surgeon's website, it made the consultation easier because I was very informed.
The staff and the doctor made me very comfortable in an uncomfortable appointment. Really felt good about their level of care.
Excellent technique, reponsive and qualified nursing staff. Doctor called me twice to check on me after I called with medication concern.
I feel Dr. Teitelbaum did an excellent technical job with my breast lift and he was honest with me about limitations.
I am looking for a surgeon who can correct symmastia and had two other consultations. This surgeon is experienced in correcting this issue and the others were not. The dr was informative, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable. His staff was friendly and the office was nice.
warm and friendly staff. top quality and cutting edge facility. felt welcomed to be there at all times. went above and beyond to help and communicate. topnotch people and top notch experience.
Offices were professional, informed, respectful. Pre=op material and post-surgery material was incredibly detailed and specific. Niurse/coordinator was available for questions prior to surgery day. Dr. came highly recommended through another physician. Felt my wishes were listened to and the desired result was absolutely what I asked for.
Stated in previous. However, to embellish a bit....His staff are all courteous, intelligent, fluent English speakers. This is important and increasingly rare. Whenever I email or call with a question, I receive a response within the day, usually within an hour or two.
I felt very comfortable with the facility and knowledge of the staff. I felt at ease and it is very important to me that people deliver on their promises which everyone that tended to ke did. I also love my results.
I had to have two breast augmentation surgeries within 18 months and I am still having problems.
Every interaction I had with the staff and surgeon was helpful and pleasant. My results are amazing and I was thrown no 'curveballs' during any stage in my surgery.
First and foremost he did a great job! He also had an excellent bedside manner. He took the time to make sure I understood everything and felt comfortable at each step.
I was impressed by Dr. Teitelbaum. However, I asked a question regarding the procedure of body sculpting augmentation, as I was seriously considering it. He mentioned that he it is not respected in the industry & that he would quickly do some research on a company website to see if techniques had changed. When he returned to the room he did not follow up on that.
