How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

My Breast Reduction
I decided I wanted to get a breast reduction as I was a DD/ DDD -they were droopy & 2 different sizes. I went to Dr Brian Kobienia as he took my insurance. He was at Edina plastic Surgeons and my friend had saw another doctor at that office. He was very nice seemed to know what he was talking about so I scheduled the surgery. Things went well., At my follow up appointments I asked if my breasts were two different sizes? He said it’s too soon, it’s how I slept, it was my salt intake, they were swollen it takes a good year or so….on and on. He thought they looked even, he cldnt see what I was talking about? I just need to give it time..it’s now 1/2023 and I had the surgery 6/2021..My last appointment he said he couldn’t really notice it. He just kind of was very elusive. He then said that he could maybe do some sort of injection to make them even and hopefully the same size. He was going to see if my insurance would cover it, but he really doubted it. He did offer to give me 10% off of the procedure but he would contact me and send me all the information I needed and an estimate. I left, and I haven’t heard from him or his office since. It’s been over a year so I’m assuming…?! He never called with an estimate he never offered to fix anything do anything and now he is at a different office in Plymouth.
I don’t really write reviews but today when I got out of the shower I thought to myself wow. I once again started to cry. I don’t understand people that aren’t invested in their job or craft. Especially something like this. Clearly he has problems admitting his mistakes or he has vision issues. I went to another plastic surgeon and he measured and they are not the same size. He was shocked. He said my boobs are mismatched and look like pancakes.He couldn’t understand why Dr. Kobienia wasn’t willing to fix them as you can clearly see they aren’t correct.
I can’t afford to go to a new doctor and do this again and I’m scared to be really honest. How do I know it will get fixed? It literally makes me so depressed I try to block it out of my mind. I have shed so many tears because I regret this. I’m not here to bash anyone that’s not who I am. I should have done more research.
The reality is this is my breast reduction by Dr.Bria Kobienia he sees no issue w/ the final result. This is the final result.
If I could do it over again I would want a doctor
that actually made my breasts and my nipples even. I wanted nice pretty breasts. I’m 47 yrs old and had all these plans to maybe start dating again::my child’s father passed away and I wanted to start living my life again. I can’t imagine ever letting anyone see my breasts. It took a lot for me to even post this because so embarrassed and feel so stupid. After viewing seeing the pictures you will understand why this is humiliating to me. Please do your research there are a lot of doctors that really love their jobs want to make their patients life’s better and do great work. You just have to find them. Good luck to all. Your beautiful!!
