Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
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.

First: Free Consultation- 3 offices to choose from. I've been to others who marked me up & explained the surgery & were very agreeable to whatever I wanted.
Dr. Farella was the only one who warned me about unrealistic expectations & how my age, skin etc would react to each procedure. He told me which procedures were most recommendable for my desired look & unlike others who promised me a new body, Dr. Farella promised to make me look the best at my weight and body frame. He honestly told me he wouldn't be sucking my 50 extra lbs out as others had.
I was still unsure & having had a negative tummy tuck before, feared paying to be scarred again. I called several times & Jackie patiently answered all my questions & never pressured me, just politely assured me they were there for any questions, or a second consult if I wanted.
Once decided, they worked with me on planning my areas and fitting them into my budget. Dr. Farella explained his surgical plan, looked over my old pictures from 3 yrs ago & my "hoped for" look & how possible it was to get back there.
Surgery morning:: The nurse received me & helped calm my jitters, as she got me & my paperwork ready & went over what I should expect for the day. The anesthesiologist came in & did the same, getting all my medical history straight to avoid complications. Dr Farella came in & looked over my chart again & the areas we' d do. He marked me with the concentration of an artist and took pictures seeing new "tweaks" he'd add in to maximize my end result. He took time and patiently planned my surgery and explained my probable outcome. When they took me into the OR, it was spotless and large and comfortably welcoming, I felt very safe and relaxed even more.
While I was in surgery my escort was explained what was happening, what would happen after, aftercare instructions and how I'd feel as well as warning signs.
When I woke up the nurse was right there to help me sit up, get out of bed, dress, sit and regain consciousness. She explained to my escort and me again, how things went, what to expect over the next few days and patiently helped watch out for my insurance provided post surgical ambulette to pick me up.
I was given 2 compression garments and was received 2 days later for follow up.
Before Surgery:: My surgical consents included a multi page detailed list of pre and post op instructions, along with an extensive list of meds, foods, activities etc.. to avoid complications from bleeding or infection.
**I never received such a pre surgical safeguard experience in my life.**
Being a lower income person and getting "Park Ave V.I.P" type care from Dr. Farella and his staff made me feel super special and safe having chosen Dr. Farella and his staff.
3 days after surgery I was amped up and doing light household activities.
2 weeks after surgery, a bit sore and bruised still, I can stretch and walk, and do my self & household care on my own.
2 months after surgery I still have a streamlined shape and am watching my caloric intake and exercising to maximize my result.
I totally recommend Dr Farella, he and his staff were more honest and treated me better and with more honesty than the Park ave butcher who left me scarred years ago.
They encouraged me from before and after how to keep myself in better condition.
They didn't make me skinny, but gave me an Amazing hourglass at my size, and beautifully contoured me to a gorgeous slim looking streamline without those bulges of fat that weighed me down before.
--I was 180 Before Surgery and My Profile Pic Is Me Day 3 After Surgery.--
Fancy Address does not dictate true quality of care, I saw Dr. Farella in the Bronx and am Ecstatic. Sooo much better than my Manhattan disaster.

The fees ranged from $2,000+ up depending on how many areas I chose. They worked with me.
