Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I have been on RS for 3 maybe 4 years. Browsing. Researching. Deciding. Etc. I have wanted the Brazilian Butt Lift since I was 14 (Im 24). I have looked into a lot of Dominican Republic Doctors, (Yily, Contreras, Duran, Baez, Robles, and Diaz).
I love Yily's bodies but have heard some things that concern me, as with Contreras. Recently I found out most of those doctors work out of CIPLA (i think that is how it is spelled), which seems to have some serious sanitary issues. Some of those doctors also apparently are not great for follow up- which for me is VERY IMPORTANT.
Needless to say I thought Baez would be perfect- so I finally wrote her for a consultation. She responded within 36 hours. Her correspondence can be found below.
So I sent her pics, one set plain, the other with areas circled (red for lipo is really wanted, blue for areas considering lipo).
I also flat out said I don't want a Tummy Tuck as it seems she does those with almost all patients, and a lot of other doctors dont yet many clients still get good results . It is all about skin elasticity.
She wrote back and said I am not a candidate for lipo just Tummy Tuck..........
HOLD THE PHONE....... I am 5'2 and weigh 185 (just lost 10 pounds dropping dairy. YAY). Needless to say though, I have PLENTY OF FAT. Mostly in my stomach, and thighs, but also my flanks, back, bra line, and arms... So how am I not a candidate for lipo? She offered no explanation.
Now I understand she might think for happy results a Tummy Tuck may be needed. I honestly am not too worried about it, my plan was if things didn't shrink back up enough I could get a Tummy Tuck later in life. After I pop out some babies. I currently don't have loose skin. And how are you going to Tummy Tuck a bunch of fat without removing it first?
That makes no sense. She didn't even mention BBL (what I want the most...)
So that being said Im searching for a doctor. Interviewing. I am considering going with Vanity's Fisher or Hassan. But Vanity seems like they are just going to give me a headache after the stuff I have read on here.
I dont have time for that. I am looking into West Coast doctors too.
We will see where this leads me. I want this done at the very latest in February 2016- but was aiming for December or January....
I asked Baez for some clarification. We will see if she responds. I also reached out to Robles (very fast in response, within 12 hours, but after I emailed her office I saw some things that made uneasy. Any Robles patients on here? Does she work at the CIPLA place? I won't go there. They did email a follow up. I am not writing her off yet.)

Vanity and Mcadoo
SO I saw some of his work and he seems good. Contacted Vanity. Natasha emails promptly. She says he has a 4,000 cash special for bbl with the full abdomen, flanks, back lipo. They have seen no photos and she says the special ends today but I can secure a date and spot with 1/2 down...Okay I have it. I could leave tomorrow and get it done. What I don't like is they want money before I can talk to a doctor, and if I had my labs done at home (I have already), they won't reduce price for not getting them there. Why have me pay for something not needed? So maybe a different doctor. Idk. Has anyone used McAdoo? I see his page says he works somewhere else? Anyone know about that?
Natasha sent me a health questionnaire... And then asked for pics. Im on West Coast time and didnt see that email until 330 my time. I got no response. So I assume the office is closed. Which probably means I missed the "special". So idk. I also mention interest in Fisher and Hassan though she didnt quote me for them. Do you get to speak with those doctors for actual real consultations before surgery?
Anyway Im waiting for Dr. Jamie Campos of Mexico to write me back...... I really love his work! Like love it! Im waiting on some other doctors too, I contacted a few in New York. I wish there was a way to see who I have contacted already -__- Ill need to start writing it down.

Ortega?
Who has had him? I am looking at his stuff, because some of his works looks pretty f*ing good... HOWEVER I notice that while he is rated high, he has some super discouraging reviews! Like people seem better off going to DR than to him with all these skin issues/infections...
If you used him, I'd love to know your experience!
