James F. Farrell, MD (in memoriam)

I just had a liposuction, "tummy tuck" and body sculpting on the August 13,2013. I am VERY pleased. Their care is fabulous. Their staff is polite, well-informed and very helpful. They have been there for me before and after my surgery. In addition, they have told me that they will care for me until everything is A ok. I will and have recommended them to my friends. There is no need to go to other countries for these procedures.

i had a terrible experience when i had my nose job done and was left looking disfiguered. 

I am a 31 yrs old mother of 2. After many years of fighting with my weight after chilbirth, I finally decided it was time to do for me!! Stretch marks, muffin top, back bacon.. you name it I had it! 5'4 was 178 at my heaviest, and finally dropped down to 145 just before surgery.

I was referred to my doctor from a friend. I did my research and decided to go ahead and start planning with him. I was treated very nicely, but never babied. I belive this actually helped me through this recovery phase I am going through now.

I had a tummy tuck, lip, and breast lift on February 16th 2010 and I am feeling awsome. I know I am swollen, yet I am so happy with just the way I look now that I would be content staying this size. I came off the pain medicine because of nausea on the third day, and have been on tylenol. I started driving 6 days later. I have a lot of back pain but thats it. I can't wait to see my end results in a few months.

He put my implants on top of the muscle instead of under the muscle as per our discussion. I had 1 implant go defective. My new Dr. had to fix the defective implant. Dr. Farrell didn't give me the time of day on the warranty issue. Do NOT recommend!

When I went to the initial consultation, the doctor came in looked at what I wanted done and said he could do what I wanted. I paid to get four areas of Smart Lipo, after the procdure, the Dr. had only done half of one of the areas and some of two other areas, but did not touch my back which was area number four. When I complained they gave me another appointment to do the so called "Smart Lipo" in two weeks, then they called me and changed the appointment for almost a month later at 9:00 AM, when I showed up at 9:00 am, they had scheduled another person at 9:00 who was getting a tummy tuck, breast implants, and lipo and someone else at 10:30 am for eye surgery. They never called me to tell me that they had changed my appointment to after 12 noon. And was supposed to be done under local anesthesia, but I think it was general anesthesia. This office over schedules patients and in my opinion does the least, so that I go back for additional Lipo, for which they may charge you additional $$$.
