Provider Review
Dr. Taranow was very clear and straightforward and very realistic about what could and couldn't be accomplished in my case. He told me it was iffy whether or not we could pull the muscle in but we would try (the other goals he felt more certain about). He charged me $10,000 upfront, with the caveat that if the insurance paid well, he would refund some of that. His surgery went well. However he had recommended the surgeon whose space we used (Dr. Paul Rosenberg) to do some under-eye work for me at the same time as this surgery (using fat injections). That procedure went very wrong, and that doctor's dealings with me were very unsatisfactory - I am still 18 months later trying to reverse it, have spent $2000 so far and still don't have my face back. Dr. Taranow felt so bad and (rightly, I think) responsible for having put me in that situation, so when the insurance paid for the abdominal surgery, he refunded a larger amount ($4000) to help cover the cost of undoing the damage Dr. Rosenberg did. Dr. Taranow was always very responsive and responsible and helpful. I would highly recommend Dr. Taranow for any abdominal or breast work you wanted done.
