Dr. Sood and his staff are absolutely excellent. They not only care about how their patients look, but how they feel, too. Dr. Sood is very experienced at surgically explanting breast implants, including removing the “capsule”, so that implant contents don’t spill into the chest cavity. This requires a high level of precision and skill. He is also very kind, with a gentle demeanor. Their surgical facility is top notch, the staff are responsive and knowledgeable. He, Laura (the patient advocate), and all the staff don’t disappoint!
I have had a great experience with Dr. Sood throughout my journey of plastic surgery. He gives his honest input and I am so happy that I went with him. I felt safe and heard throughout the whole experience and would recommend anyone to go to him. I didn’t have an easy case and the results have been outstanding so far. :)
It’s been a little over a year since Dr. Sood performed my explant. I have been happy with my results. I can honestly recommend him to others. He is professional, very humble and truly cares about the experience of his patients. He also really cares that we are happy with our results. The fact that he has an advocate was probably one of the most important pieces along with having an actual before and after gallery. I don’t think you can go wrong with Dr Sood. I have my health back and don’t regret traveling multiple states to use him.
I was suffering with symptoms of breast implant illness for a few years when I met Dr.Sood in December of 2023. Years prior, I’d met with doctor who placed the implants in California and he suggested that my symptoms were all in my head and unrelated to BII, stating it was rare to have a negative reaction to breast implant illness! -Please know if you’ve received the same info, it’s false! This epidemic isn’t rare, it’s more common than the medical industry will admit. Not only is it important to find a surgeon who’s a true expert in the field of BII and Explant/enbloc/capsulectomy surgery, it’s important to find a “Team” who you’re comfortable with and who genuinely listens and see’s you, and who is a perfectionist and wants to help you feel better! Dr.Sood is that and more! Through extensive research on Explant Specialists and Breast Implant Illness Specialists (BII), I was led to Dr.Sood amongst others across the U.S., and including a doctor in my local town of AZ. After various consultations with a handful of well-known Doctors who I wasn’t impressed by, I met with Dr.Sood and his team and I knew right away that I was in the right place. His expertise and honestly speaks volumes. There was no sugar coating, no overpromising or upselling. He was honest, truthful, and direct, able to answer questions I had that day and continuing through the journey up to and after my surgery. Within a few months I was able to get in to have the surgery to remove 13 year old implants that were destroying my life from the inside out. I received a full breast lift as well as the breast implant removal and capsulectomy where the entire capsule is removed from the body, ribs, and wherever else it may attach to. Dr.Sood had incredible bedside manners and the entire team he works with offered me support and care above and beyond what I could have imagined. I traveled from out of state which could have been a difficult feat but Dr.Sood was extremely accommodating and everything happened with ease and flow. Ultimately my results were beyond impressive- both aesthetically and physically. A handful of the major BII symptoms I’d been experiencing completely disappeared within the first day and week of my recover. Its been a little over a year now since my surgery and my real breasts are beautiful and my scars are healed and beautiful, telling the story of the feat of my journey. I couldn’t be happier with Dr.Sood’s surgical work and the confidence and reassurance he gave me throughout the process. He’s an amazing Doctor and human being! Thank you Dr.Sood for changing my life for the better.
Dr Sood and his staff did excellent work on my wife. The whole experience was one of the best that we have had in the medical field. His expertise, talent and bedside manner were outstanding. My wife worked as a nurse for years as a Surgical nurse and she has her BSN in nursing. We would highly recommend Dr Sood.
Dr. Sood quite literally saved my life. His skill, compassion, and dedication is unmatched. I’ll be forever grateful for his care and the kindness he showed me during one of the most difficult times in my life. On top of that I have the best results after my explant. A win is a win! I couldn’t thank him & Laura enough. Forever grateful. If you want a Doctor who is actually going to care for you, I would 100% recommend Dr.Sood.
Best patient care and one of the most knowledgeable surgeons in this area. Answered all my questions prior/post surgery. Truly cares about his patients. I traveled 5h to have surgery with Dr Sood. Highly recommend.
One year ago I traveled from Texas for my explant surgery with Dr. Sood. He had recently performed explant surgery on one of my friends who referred me to him as I was also struggling with BII. Dr. Sood is a talented caring surgeon and my results are beyond my expectations. I highly recommend him.
I had a breast aug done, all I can say is he is the best at what he does. I felt reassured, not pressured whatsoever and even when I wanted a bigger size he knew that my body type would not look to scale and suggested a better solution. That is a green flag for me, Dr. Sood was very kind and made sure to explain everything in a way that was very understandable. I actually had obvious asymmetry with my breasts and he worked his magic and my breasts are amazing, the asymmetry is no longer there. The results were absolutely stunning and that's pretty much it! Highly recommend, very very professional surgeon.
9 months ago, I took a leap of faith and put my trust in Dr. Sood. 11 years of breast implants had left me inflamed, sick and depressed. My body was fighting against me. I chose to undergo an total enbloc with a fat transfer and lift. I had read many negative stories on fat transfer. Horror stories. The “DON’T DO IT” reviews. I trusted the support from Dr. Soods team and chose to go for it. Fast forward to today. Dr. Soods work is remarkable. He is true to his craft and his work shows it. My fat transfer was a full success. I was a AAA before implants, a DD pre-explant, and currently now a healthy, full, bouncy B. I love my breasts now more then I ever have. Before and after explants. My health has regained itself. My confidence is stronger. I have no doubt that these results would not have been as amazing had I of gone any other way. If you are looking for the right surgeon, you found him. Trade the search button for the phone. Make your appointment. You won’t regret it.
