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.

Not going to Ortega... at least not right now.
So I don't really want to go to Dr. Ortega anymore. I paid $500 deposit and I want it back but I can't get it back. They said the deposit was already used but I never got in touch with them in time to confirm the date. It says in the contract that if you set a date you cant get it back but I never set one. I also noticed that my arms weren't added to the contract. The main reason I was getting the bbl and lipo is because I figured if I was already under I might as well get a flatter stomach and a touch up to my butt. So I've been doing research and I think I'm going to get my arm lift first and if I want my stomach and butt done I may choose another doctor. To be honest I'm not very confident in his skills. I need to see more postop pics from other chicks. Anywho... I'll write another review on my arm lift.
Having a hard time
I'm having a hard time paying my deposit for Dr. Ortega. My main issue is getting in touch with someone so I can pay the deposit. I was sent an email with the quote but no instructions on how to pay the deposit. I'm getting nervous that this may be an indication of how things will be once I pay my money. Hopefully I can get it paid soon and get my date secured.
Thinking of Spectrum Aesthetics
Thinking of Dr. Ortega. He's board certified. I'm going to get lipo of the arms instead of an arm lift. I spoke to a coordinator and she said if I get a arm lift I can only get 1 liter of fat removed. So I've made the decision to just get lipo and deal with the sagging skin until I get a arm lift on my own. Hopefully I can get a date in late January or early February. The coordinator told me I can get the surgery now but losing some weight will produce better results. I'm thinking maybe 15 lbs. Ugh!

My doctor for my BBL was Dr. Duran. I still love my results. It was a good decision. But there are people who didn't have the same experience as me. IF you want someone to continously check on you and follow up after you leave the country she is not the doctor for you. I was fine with it because I had my PCP and a specialist back home waiting check me out back home.
