I researched for 4yrs picking my doctor and the procedures I wanted. I finally did a consultation and I'm highly disappointed. I sent pics, wish pics, & what I wanted which was a bbl, fat grafting to the hips, liposuction to my mid section & inner thighs, & liposculture...I received a quote for a tummy tuck, liposuction on waist & armpits for $3450...that's nothing I asked for then I was told that I'm not a candidate for liposuction or a bbl...WHAT?!? Ru kidding me. I was told her assistant is a jerk & they try to pursuade everyone into a tummy tuck bc it shows drastic results in pictures for future clients. So now I'm starting over I looking for a new doctor....any suggestions please I'm looking at Dr. Duran. Not everyone wants a video vixen body or to skinny I want to be me enhance a few areas, sculpt my waist no back fat...my wish pics may be different but I want my experience to be my choice it's my $$ I'm spending.

Omg..I sent my pics Tuesday.. And they said the same to me I need à tummy tuck!! Bs I got quotes from 3 other doctors for lipo and bbl..
March 13, 2016
So, im not the only one this happened too. My friend went to Robles years ago and she said they quote you a price but when u get there they switch things up, say they are unable to do this or that its horrible to take advantage of people.
March 13, 2016
I contacted Dr. Robles, too. I sent pics, and asked for her recommendation. She recommended lipo of stomach, flanks, arm pits,etc. plus a bbl. Her assistant was really nice, and I didn't have any issues. I am not doubting your account of the situation. I've just noticed the inconsistencies amongst stories. I considered Dr. Y, but her assistant seemed so incompetent I decided to go elsewhere. Yet I read a review and the assistant was noted as quite resourceful. I think it all boils down to the exchange of energy. Use common sense of course, but allow your spirit to guide you to the surgeon who's best for you. I find that looking thru the pictures (before and after) and selecting people whose before pictures look like my current body and after pictures look like the body I desire, is quite helpful. Also maybe you could try consultations with other doctors or better yet post a question under the ask a doctor forum. That way, you can get feedback from various doctors. Don't be discouraged! What's yours will be yours!

Thank you but I my best friend went to her and she went through the same thing to a certain extinct she also said Robles quotes you for a procedure but when you arrive the price changes and she says she is unable to do and tell u need that its too inconsistent. This should be taken serious so i will be going to my doctor in nyc where i feel more safe.
March 13, 2016
So is Dr. Duran a no go, now? I hear she does great work. And who are you considering in New York. I considered Shahine, but the communication was poor. Also when you say you and your best friend went to her, do you mean physically went to her? I wouldn't want to experience being quoted one price and finding out when I arrive it is a different price. Thanks for the feedback. Keep me updated.
March 13, 2016
Im looking into Dr. Duran, I have to start all over now. My friend went a few years ago & she told me her experience. MY GYN is a cosmetic surgeon so I'm considering him. I don't know I feel like my plan has been ruined so I'm starting all over again finding a doctor.

Bless your heart. Duran does not respond to many ladies. I feel she only responds to the girls that will be easy and look the very best. Ladies with kids, gastric bypass, extra pounds are more difficult to achieve the best results. Just sayin'
March 14, 2016
Oh, really? Well I guess I will go where it's safe and where I will be treated properly.
April 10, 2016
That's the same thing I said. I'm glad she didn't give me a quote tho and glad I chose Robles, it was a way more professional experience in booking. I also heard she's very caring and cecip is very clean and professional. Duran has that reputation now so I feel like she wants to have the same results on everyone, which to me doesn't show skill. Robles had many diff body types and Almonte really had a lot of bigger patients where you could see dramatic before and afters. If all your patients come slim already you're not really doing much.
April 10, 2016
Exactly...Robles has amazing results, different bodies, all great results she is the perfect doctor for me i trust her work & all her reviews so far are great..the body looks natural i don't want to look like video vixen I'm a mother i just want to enhance certain areas and improve i want to look in the mirror naked & feel good trying to get my bedroom body right lol

Dr Walkiris Robles assistant is horrible!

tffny
So I reached out again hoping to get a quote on a bbl, fat transfer to hips, & lipo sculpture...I expressed how I really want dr Robles to be my doctor & how I wanted these procedures to be my round one & I would consider a tummy tuck for round 2. Once again I was told I must get a tummy tuck for good results or she will not perform ,y procedures I went to a doctor in nyc and was never being forced into a tummy tuck I'm disgusted and discouraged and at this time I don't want any surgery I'm over it and pissed off. [RS bleep] dr Robles and her assistant.

Try Dr.Luis Mejia in DR does awesome work and I think he offers a little discount on REALSELF. And he's very fine looking!
April 8, 2016
Dr.Luis A Mejia in Dominican Republic.
April 8, 2016
Thank u I will look now
April 8, 2016
Yes the assistant pissed me off to I can't stand the responses she gives me. I don't even want to deal with her anymore. I totally understand you I had bad experience with the assistant. But give DR.LUIS A MEJIA a try look at his profile, I like his work and his reviews are all great. The response time is quick and the prices are pretty much the same.
April 8, 2016
Check DR.EMMANUEL MALLOL in the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC he's offering a BBL AND LIPO for like 2750.00 it's on REALSELF I was looking at his reviews seems okay just check it out
April 8, 2016
I like his tummy tuck but his Brazilian butt lifts are t voluptuous it's more of a natural look I want a little more than that but I'm liking his work so far thank u and his price.
UPDATED FROM tffny

Dr Robles assistant emailed me...

tffny
I sent a email saying ok to the tummy tuck along with what I initially wanted no she responds we recommend you get a second opinion...like what? I said ok to the tummy tuck and this is the response I get....I despise that woman she is so rude and unhelpful. I'm completely discouraged. I'm over this for a little while clearly it's a sign that I shouldn't do this now so I'll wait to I find the dr for me.

April 10, 2016
There are 2 email addresses I'm pretty sure you have the assistant I have & she is not helpful at all but the other assistant is on point have you tried to what's app?
April 10, 2016
No, I haven't tried whats app...thank you...so i will try that you have the number...I was finally given a quote with tummy tuck of course...i was considering it but I'm not 100% on it you know i feel thats something you have to be 100% about. I will definitely try whats app.
April 10, 2016
Wait! Don't give up. They are just not as on point as we would like them to be I got so frustrated with Duran I was like forget it. Robles responds to me on the double every time. You should whats app her. You gotta be persistent I'm telling you.
April 10, 2016
Ok, im not giving up her assistant is so frustrating but I will definitely be using whats app from now on.
