Absolutely the Most Amazing Experience from my Very First Inquiry Phone Call to my Last Post Op Visit!

My story begins 23 years ago when I got breast implants..it was not the best experience for me and quite scary! So for that reason when the 10 and 15 year go back and have them redone came along..I didn’t go because I was afraid to go under general anesthesia again..I didn’t think I had any problems with my implants..they were perfect I thought and besides my original doctor was no longer in practice and I didn’t know who to go too!
So now 23 years later I know it’s time to get them out..necessary after so much time and besides my right breast had gotten bigger and I always worried something might be wrong! I decided I’m going to do it now even though I was afraid to say the least! I called Dr. Taranow’s office on a Thursday and was in the office for a consultation the very next day! The receptionist was so friendly and kind to me that I said yes and made that first appointment! My consultation with the doctor was so amazing and reassuring that I scheduled my breast implant removal during that first consultation! Although I was nervous I was also confident in my decision because of the way the doctor so carefully explained the entire procedure to me. In the 3 weeks before my surgery I did the necessary pre-op and any questions I had were kindly answered! Day of surgery..the doctor and staff were so awesome..I had no fears and felt so taken care of!! I would like to share that Dr Taranow had told me in my first consultation that I might have a possible implant issue on the right side but wouldn’t know until surgery when he could see..and yes he was right my right implant was completely ruptured and required a bit more surgery to remove and clean! Dr Taranow and staff handled my surgery so beautifully from beginning to end as I was waking up.. I felt so cared for!! I am completely blown away with gratitude for my entire experience with Dr Taranow and staff!! I am so happy with my surgery and even more happy to have my implants out of my body! It has been 3 weeks since my surgery and I am healing beautifully and gratefully.. Diana
