Provider Review
I visited 3 High profile plastic surgeons in Manhattan. I work in the city and live in NJ. I researched each doctor thoroughly. Do not base your decision on the photo gallery from the website. You need to meet the doctor and feel that they are providing you with the most information and honestly response to how the results will be. 2 of the 3 did that. 2 of the 3 were very honest that my abs were in really bad shape after the pregnancies and that the idea of becoming a 26 yr old again was impossible. I still did not get the warm fuzzies, if you will, from them. I decided to see what NJ had to offer and I was really looking for someone who can do the procedure in the hospital, just my preference. I did not want to get wisked into some doctor's little procedure room in their office and have a tummy tuck done, knowing that it was not going to be 30 minutes, and should anything happen, there would be back up to handle any emergency, that is just me. Dr. Rafizadeh was very professional, exceptional at providing all the details about what can be done and how it will be done. The initial consult was not rushed, his office staff was very professional ( the staff in the city is another reason why i selected Dr. Rafizadeh, the staff is a direct reflection on the surgeon. I was very happy with my first meeting, from his office environment, to his staff to my meeting with him. He is very knowledgeable, kind and gave me the sense that this can me a life changing experience, 75% from him and 25% from me to eat healthy and to get the best results. I went back to him a week before the surgery to go over more details and he was again, very patient and understanding. He spent amble time with me and even marked me up, to see where the incision would be, (it is VERY low) very pleased) On the day of the surgery at the Morristown Hospital, (staff there were also very professional, and on their A game), Dr. Rafizadeh was there prior to the surgery, very calm and again my husband was there to see exactly what he was going to do, eye opened wide to the amount of work, which was a lot. My skin was hanging, could barely see my toes standing straight. After the procedure, in recovery, there was Dr. Rafizadeh, my eyes just opened up and he was there to make sure I was ok. He even called my husband to tell him it was all done, and he was able to come to the hospital. He also called me the next day to see how I was, asking about pain, if I was moving around, bowel movement, making sure I keep the binder on and tight, etc. This experience was much better than my two c-sections at NY Presby. Dr. Rafizadeh really knows his stuff and has a very gentle way about him that puts me at ease. I am very happy with my results and cannot believe the difference. My belly button is exactly where it should be, my stretchmarks are gone, although my incision is still covered with tape, I can see that it is not bad, I have a very smooth contour and my side profile today is 180 degree difference. I still have to work on losing more weight to get the true benefit, but I have to say this is a life changing procedure. I am very appreciate of Dr. Rafizadeh and his staff.
