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.

Ive been considering a reduction since puberty. I am 21, 160lbs, 5'5", with a 34DDD/34F.

I just had an appointment with my PCP on the 31st, with good news, he gave me the referral I needed! I then had to go get X-Rays of my spine, to prove I have no underlying issues causing me back pain. I heard back from the doctor, and the x-rays came out good, no issues found.

I have my consult appointment with Dr. Shaw on 11/13/12, and I am hoping that everything will go well once he sends off my information to insurance for approval. I have UHC.

My goal is a B cup, possibly a C but I am leaning towards the B. I struggle with daily back and neck pain, and cannot wear a traditional bra for more than a few hours; I wear sports bras on a daily basis.

The procedure costs 8700.00, but if my insurance company approves it I will only have to pay 20% of that. Fingers crossed!

Today has been awful. I am getting so anxious for my consult ( one Moore week! ) and I am SO nervous I won't get approved. Trying to stay positive, but the nerves are making me on edge! Any ideas to keep my mind off of it for the next week ?!

In network surgeon who has great credentials, and is LOCAL. I was very uneasy about trying a surgeon from out of town. After meeting him I am so glad I chose him!
