The recovery has been great - in love with my results

I recently got a breast reduction on 2/21/24 and I am 11 days post op. My experience with Dr.Churgin and her team Kathy, Frank and Ann has been phenomenal. They are so attentive and helpful. They are so caring and if I have any questions I get an answer right away. I was so nervous having my breast reduction and Dr.Churgin and her team made me feel safe and comfortable. The surgery was very successful and omg my boobs looks so freaking good Dr.Churgin did her thanggg I was a H now I’m a C and I am in love. The recovery has been great also and her team checked on me daily to see how I was feeling and if I had any questions or concerns. They are really the best.I recommend Dr.Churgin 10000000% she really is amazing.

My scars are minimal - no pain during my immediate recovery

After 3 lumbar spine surgeries and now looking at a possible thoracic surgery I knew I had to do something else to ease the pain off my neck, shoulders and upper spine… a breast reduction seemed to be the answer ! I started consulting with a few breast surgeons and Dr Churgin was by far the most highly rated by multiple avenues. I met with her and I knew right away I was in the best of hands. She answered all my questions, was completely transparent about my procedure and understood my wants and needs. The staff was extremely instrumental in making sure the surgery was scheduled and went off without a hitch. I’m about a month into my recovery and couldn’t be happier! I just keep saying why didn’t I do this sooner ! I would without any doubt recommend Dr. Churgin. She is a highly skilled and professional physician and an artist at her craft. My scars are minimal, I had absolutely no pain during my immediate recovery and my post Op has been right on track. Thank you Dr. Churgin and staff.

Cyst Removal

Recurring cysts in my underarms due to hidradenitis suppurtiva

Due to hidradenitis suppurtiva, I had recurring cysts in my underarms. Dr. Churgin and the staff in the Babylon office location took care of me in a very responsive, caring, and professional manner from consultation to after-surgery follow-ups. Dr. Churgin and her staff- Heidi, Kathy, and Frank took time to get to know me as a patient, always spoke to me like I was a friend, and put me at ease. Dr. Churgin presented me with the surgical options, provided pros and cons for each, answered all my questions, and talk me through what to expect and aftercare. At a time when many plastic surgeons were either not willing to take my case as it was not cosmetic or did not accept my insurance, Dr. Churgin's practice made the effort to respond to me quickly and provided me with appointment options without further delays. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon.

More confident and empowered - no longer have neck and back pains

I came into Dr. Churgin's office looking to have a breast reduction. I was super nervous about the process and as soon as I met with her and talked about what I'd like to look like as well as all of my concerns I felt at ease. She answered all of my questions and explained everything throughly. I was so thankful to have found a doctor as patient, caring and kind as she is. Her team is also phenomenal, I was always able to speak to Kathy, Heidi and Frank whenever I needed assistances or had any questions. They were also extremely helpful and patient with my medical insurance during the process of getting my surgery approved. I love that Dr. Churgin has a location in Manhattan as well as Babylon making it very easy to arrange post op appointments. I am now 8 months post op and I feel more confident, empowered and no longer have neck and back pains. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Churgin to anyone!

Tummy Tuck

Life changing after weight loss of 120lbs+ which left me with extra skin

Dr Churgin has completely changed my life. I had drastic weight loss of 120lbs+ which left me with a lot of extra skin- leading to physical & mental battles every day. After some not so great experiences with previous surgeons, Dr. Churgin was genuinely a life saver. She is understanding, compassionate, intelligent & very very skilled. Her work is amazing and I’m so thankful to have found her. This (Tummy Tuck) is the result of my first of many procedures with Dr. Churgin and I couldn’t be happier!! Thank you. Frank, Heidi, Kathy, Anne & Mrs. Churgin have been so great along this journey as well, I can’t thank you all enough!

Dr. Churgin and Her Staff Are Phenomenal.

Dr. Churgin and her staff has gone above and beyond to help me. Words can't express how greatful I am. I'm an out of network paitent that has been approved by my health insurance. I'm now a week post-op. As soon as I sat up after surgery I immediately felt relief on my neck, back, and shoulders. I couldn't believe how good I felt. I haven't had any back pain since. I'm still in the recovery process but so far I'm really happy with my results. Also the staff checks in with you multiple times throughout the days to see how you're doing, which for me I really liked. I'll will update this post again when I'm further in my recovery.

Thigh Lift

My Thighs Looks Totally Amazing

I’m so excited to share with you that my thigh lift was done by Dr. Samara Churgin, she is the best, hands down!! My surgery was almost painless, without any complications and I was able to move about with the least discomfort. Day one I was standing looking at my legs differently, I could see the change immediately. Day two the change was even more noticeable since the swelling was reducing. While taking a shower I couldn’t stop admiring how nice my scar looked overall. I’m proud to say that today my legs looks fabulous thanks to Dr. Churgin. I finally can go to the beach without feeling ashamed or embarrassed of showing my legs. I can enjoy wearing a bathing suit or shorts with confidence. I feel amazing already and with time my legs are definitely going to look even better. If you are contemplating on getting an inner thigh lift please consider obtaining a consultation with Dr. Churgin. Dr. Churgin performs numerous types of surgery’s she specializes in enhancing your body image. She caters to both women and men. Ultimately if you decide to have her perform your surgery, I can honestly say that you won’t be disappointed!!!

Totally Satisfied!

Dr. Churgin put me at ease. I was nervous but she was so calm, confident, and understanding when I talked with her about my scarring from a previous MOHS surgery. She did a great job removing the scar tissue -- I'm so happy with the results! Her aftercare and staff are excellent and she's very available to answer any questions or schedule a follow-up. I highly recommend her!!

Compliments All Around

Dr. Churgin is one of those doctors that you immediately feel at ease with. This was my first time doing any plastic surgery, I went in for a breast reduction. Her staff worked with my insurance and was able to assist me in getting a surgery I really needed and wanted. Dr. Churgin is super nice, explains everything, and is available anytime you have questions or concerns. Her staff is great.

Don't Look Any Further Than Dr. Churgin!

I went to Dr. Churgin after finding her on the Empire Plan's directory for breast reduction surgery to permanently relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain. PHENOMENAL is an understatement to describe Dr. Churgin and her staff! When you become a patient of Dr. Churgin's, you become family. I have felt extremely cared for through every step of my journey so far. Leading up to the surgery, I was very nervous. Dr. Churgin and her staff were extremely attentive to me, answered ALL of my questions, and reassured me that everything would be all right. Every step of the process has gone smoothly! The surgery went really great! My bra size was 30DDD at 125 pounds, 5'4, slim/athletic frame. Dr. Churgin brought me down to approx. a B. I'm 11 days post-surgery and the healing process is going well. Dr. Churgin's office has called to check-in on me every single day and if I have any questions, her staff always gets back to me ASAP. Look no further than Dr. Churgin if you're considering a reduction!
