I found a potential doctor to perform my future breast augmentation. I met him for a consultation an I really liked him and felt comfortable speaking to him. He also was very informative and didn't rush my consult and was the first doctor who was extremely focused on educating me on breast aug. My only concern is that I can't find that many reviews on him online. There are a few but not many compared to other doctors.
Answer: How do you decide on a surgeon Fewer online reviews could mean that your surgeon has not been practicing as long as some, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. His professionalism and the impression he made when you met him is very important. As well, it may be helpful to ask the office staff if there are patients of his that you can speak with. Many happy patients will be glad to share their experience with you. Always be sure to choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.Best of luck

Answer: Finding the Right Plastic Surgeon Reading a lot of comments about your plastic surgeon online is just one part of making an informed choice. One thing that might make you more comfortable is speaking to some of his patients. You can talk to the office manager about this possibility. If you had a good consultation and feel comfortable with the surgeon, this goes a long way to finding a good fit. Another aspect of choosing the surgeon right for you is being able to see before and after photographs. This is most helpful when done with the surgeon.

Answer: Online reviews I agree with other answers that 'negative' reviews mean more than the number of 'positive' reviews. Always consult with a board certified Plastic Surgeon before deciding on a treatment. This post is not intended to be medical advice and is for informational purposes only.

Answer: How do you decide on a surgeon if he only has very few reviews online? Thank you for your question. I think the most important thing is that you had a really good experienced during your consultation with us plastic surgeon who took the time to properly answer your questions and education about the procedure. You should do do diligence by checking the website of the American Board of Plastic Surgery, ASPS® and ASAPS® to evaluate the physicians training and experience.Reviews can be helpful but are not totally reliable. In addition reviews require persistence and effort on the part of the surgeons to obtain reviews from patients. Your plastic surgeon may simply have not bothered to do this.If it will make you feel better than seek additional consultations with other board certified plastic surgeons so you will have a comparison, but in the end your comfort level with the board certified plastic surgeon is most important in my opinion

Answer: How do you decide on a surgeon if he only has very few reviews online? An there old reviews? Online reviews are just one of the many sources of information available to you. Lots of negative reviews may be a "red flag"; the presence of just a few reviews may not be meaningful. I would suggest starting with the American Society of Plastic Surgery and/or the Aesthetic Society of Plastic Surgery to obtain a list of well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons. Then, I would suggest you visit a few surgeons whose practices concentrate on aesthetic surgery. Ask to see lots of EXAMPLES of their work and preferably speak/see patients who have had similar procedures done. Be very careful with your decision-making. You will find, while doing your due diligence, that there are many different “specialties” who will offer their services to you; again, I strongly recommend you concentrate on surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. I hope this helps.
