Five Stars
I came to Dr. Colen after experiencing multiple complications with my breast expander surgeries. At first, I was hesitant to change doctors, but ultimately I felt I needed a new start, especially since two other doctors mentioned trying a major surgery that seemed too invasive to continue with my reconstruction process. I felt Dr. Colen understood me and agreed that I did not need more cuts and invasive procedures after all that I had already been through. We decided to proceed
Life Changing Experience
Dr Colen is a compassionate , brilliant surgeon who completely changed my life. She calmly reassured me throughout the entire process of having a lipoma removed, and her staff was there every step of the way to answer questions big or small. My physical recovery was swift, and emotionally I have never been happier with the transformative shape of my body. This exceptional doctor has magic hands and I am extremely grateful to have been in her care.
Dr. Colen and her staff always made me feel at home
I could not be happier with my experiences at Kari's office. I got a breast reduction and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made, but that's all thanks to Dr. Colen! Dr. Colen and her staff always made me feel at home, care-free, and comfortable. They also were there to answer any and all of my questions!

The Perfect Practice
My experience with Dr. Colen was perfect. Before my mastectomy, she was patient and informative of my options and walked me through every phase. I am totally satisfied with the results. Her staff was professional and especially kind and gentle, as these procedures are very scary.

Excellent surgeon
Dr. Colen is an excellent surgeon. She performed the first phase of my breast reconstruction following my mastectomy. I had my reconstruction done in January and my recovery for both procedures was excellent. I still can’t believe what I have gone through because I was back to normal in no time. She explains things so clearly that it’s easy to understand. Dr. Colen is honest and will advise you accordingly. She knows exactly what she’s doing and I trust her completely.

Kari Colen An Amazing Gifted Plastic Surgeon - Hackensack, NJ
Dr Colen was given the challening job of fixing a bad surgeery done at NYU by Nolan Karp. She exceeded my expectations because many surgeons told me it could not be corrected because Dr Karp,made such a mess, She did a fantastic reconstruction and my breast look wonderful . It was such a great experince and her staff and beside manner is also exceptional. I recommend Dr Kari Colen because she is an excellent surgeon and a true professional.
Amazing surgeon, staff, and process.
I had some obstacles with my breasts due to benign fiber-adenomas and was unsure if that would affect the process. Dr. Colen assured me that this would not be a problem. It started with my phone call to make my consultation appt. in which I spoke to Maria, who was the FRIENDLIEST nurse I have ever dealt with- I knew it would be a positive experience. I then went for my consultation, booked my surgery, and now have the MOST natural breasts I could ever hope for! Dr. Colen and her

reconstruction after breast cancer
All staff and physician I met were wonderful, professional and dedicated people. Had surgery and was thankful i was able to return home after a couple of hours. Hospital room was in a quiet and relaxing area with caring nurses. There was never a wait in her office during my visits and surgery consults.

Dr. Kari Colen is a powerful doctor. She has so much charisma and energy. She finds out what you want and helps you immediately. She's so passionate about her work as a surgeon.
