Dowbak is a Hit or Miss. Does Not Do All Her Surgeries .

The overall experience was a mess. First off the staff is horrible and everybody knows it. Trying to get your consultants to respond , trying to get your paperwork from Julieta is a chore in itself. Let's start off by saying yes Dowbak has done good work in the past but I feel her work is slipping through the cracks. She's 70 plus years old and I think it's time for her to retire before she gets a death under her belt. I know for a fact she isn't doing all her surgeries by herself. She definitely has help and it shows. The office lies and says she only does 3 or 4 surgeries a day which is a bold face lie. You can join any dowbak doll facebook group and majority of the girls will tell you there were 7, 8 , 9 dolls all getting surgery. So tell me how can one woman in her 70's perform that many surgeries and have post op and pre op appts in between surgeries 6 or 7 days a week. Yes they do surgeries on Saturdays as well. It got to a point where they were cancelling dolls because Dowbak was tired and needed a break. Her ig are full of success stories but there's more uneven hips, left butt cheeks bigger than right, upper back fat not being touched at all stories than success stories. The post op appt is garbage. My appt was literally 2 minutes and 1 minute consisted of me changing my faja. The other minute was Julieta (her asst) looking at my incisions for a split second and sending me on my way. This office is a joke when it comes to concerns about your health. Ladies if you want a good slope with projection I can honestly say Dowbak isn't the doctor. If you want to be sucked dry than Dowbak is your doctor on a good day.. Honestly this whole year her and her staff have been a hit or a big miss and when she misses it's obvious from the jump. They scream trust the process but when you're getting off the table and you already got issues that's a problem. To think her price went from 700 to 3500 for a revision is a joke. My body issues are having a shelf instead of a slope, my back area by my bra was not touched. Never felt pain , flat areas in my butt. I was like that from day 1. FYI- she has a video on IG stating that she trains people during surgery. We all know that training means these students are HANDS ON . one last thing. When I woke up from surgery. I was shaking for 10 min and then put in a wheelchair and pushed out the back door to an alley area where my ride was . Mind you this is a dirty back door area where the trash also sits to the side. The location of the office is hideous. You will see for yourself ladies.

The issues you described with your butt are the same ones I had when I went to Dr. Mallol in DR two years ago. Now I plan to get a revision by Dr. Blinski or Dr. Harry to reshape everything and fix my lipo. Overbooking to such large degrees leads to quality of work dropping and people having to wear the outcome on their bodies which isn't fair.

I so agree and she is over booked. no one and I mean no one should be doing that many surgeries.

I hate that you had to go through this. Thanks for the heads up! After doing all this research on dowbak it was just a waste of time I may be going with Harry

If I do a revision it will be with Harry. Dowbak is messing up revisions too. To think she went from 700 to 3500 for a revision. no way

Agreed no need to overbook I also heard some patients surgery date was canceled without notice because she needed a vacation how inconvenient smh.

Ugh. I am so sorry you had this experience!! I keep hearing more and more about doctors who are basically just the face of the business, taking in 8 women a day with multiple people preforming the surgery. Thanks for sharing your experience and truthful review.

You're welcome.

These Facebook groups are full of women saying that the same thing. I’m scheduled with her and im sooo nervous

Everybody can't be lying. All you can do is stick with whatever you decide and be at ease. If you're uneasy about it. Research some other doctors. Compare results with girls that aren't swollen anymore.
