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.

If You Are Driving Distance from Mountain View Talk to Dr Lowen About Plastic Surgery
I am male, 32. I found Dr. Lowen as a plastic surgeon with expertise in removing lipomas. He limits the incision size, which helps with recovery and minimizing scarring (I happen to scar easily). The follow-up care included a recommended silicone gel and periodic laser treatment. He has decades of experience and uses state-of-the-art techniques. Dr. Lowen is by far the most responsive doctor I've interacted with via email.
A couple things that may be dealbreakers for you:
- He is very opinionated and blunt. You will not get a soft or coddling bedside manner with him. It reminds me of no-nonsense restaurants that serve great food along with equal helpings of the-customer-is-not-always-right. Keep this in mind when you read negative reviews. One Yelp review that amuses me is a woman who wanted a procedure, went for a consultation, and was upset because he was trying to talk her out of doing it (1 out of 5 stars).
- His practice has the tightest COVID prevention practices I have ever seen in 2024. Negative tests are required before visits. His reception is locked (no hanging out before an appointment) and his receptionist is off-site. I wash my hands as soon as I enter his clinic. He has always been masked and has asked me to wear a mask.
This is a man who loves what he does and does great work; and because of that I give Dr Lowen my highest recommendation.
