So I decided to go ahead and starting writing a review because I am set on a price and Doctor I like ! As you read by the title I'm 21 with saggy breast and no children for an excuse ! I've been researching tons of things about the procedures I want for over a year now and I finally settled on a doctor with the right price ! I first started my journey interested in going to Dr.Urmen Desai at Doctors Plastic Surgery in New York because he did my fav youtubers BA for $3900 (as that's there set price for saline implants) and hers came out perfect ! I set up a consultation without knowing I had to request which doctor I wanted to do my procedure (lol first timer) and ended up having a consultation with Dr. Robert Tornambe . He SUCKED ! The consultation was literally 4 mins long I felt really rushed and he came off a bit rude . I automatically didn't like him but felt it didn't matter because he wasn't who I wanted In the first place , so I spoke with my coordinator and she advised me dr.urmen Desai no longer worked there and went to California ! I was CRUSHED !!! So I decided to just research that doctor to see his work although he had a pissy attitude . And of course his work was HIDEOUS ! I still received a quote from my coordinator for his services and he was going to charge a womping $10,040 for cash or $11500 if financed !! I was seriously in shock . Like I can pay my whole car off with that ! So I asked if they had any other doctors and I seemed to only like Dr.Catherine Blaine's work . I had a consultation with her and she was absolutely fabulous !! But she still quoted me at $7140 . Which I wasn't willing to spend being that they promote a BA for $3900 I thought maybe adding a BL would only take it to about 5k MAX . I Was once again heart broken and feeling like this just wasn't going to happen until a friend of mine told me that one of her sisters friends got her breast done by a surgeon in Miami for 3k . I researched him and didn't come across anything so I automatically didn't feel comfortable but I decided to look and see if there were other doctors that were more known and charged around the same thing , and to my surprise 3k is about average for a BA in Miami ! I thought it would be soooo much more expensive . So I came across a few doctors but they all had a lot of bad reviews . And then I saw Spectrum Aesthetics which were homes for doctor Mel Ortega and dr. Rami gunrani. I automatically geared towards dr.rami because I loved how smAll his incisions were and I immediately called for a consultation! One thing I will say is that I absolutely hat unprofessionalism in a Buisness ecspecially a Buisness that could potentially be holding your life in there hands . I was first transferred to a call center were i spoke with a Spanish women who could barely understand me . She didn't no how to spell my name which is only 3 letters couldn't keep up with what I was saying (I don't speak fast at all . Ecspecially when giving out my information) and kept putting me on hold to type , but anyways I was so happy when she said she would transfer me to my new coordinator ANA RODRIGUEZ . When I spoke to her I felt much better although she was explaining everything to me as if I was dumb (But I rather that than you skip Stuff I don't know just in case) . Off the bat things were completely different she explained I wouldn't be able to do my consultation through a video chat as I did previously because the doctors are always booked and so everything goes through your coordinator. I felt thrown off but I went with it anyways of the strength of the doctors work and price (can't get everything you want for an affordable price) . I was told I can Have a consultation through her or through a email and looking through other reviews you don't meet your doctor until the day of or the day before so I want with it and gave her all my info and sent in my post op pics . And she said she will have the doctor do an evaluation and get back with me . In the mean time She sent an email with the prices for either doctor , I choose In there facility to do my BA Which was anywhere between 4,000 - 5500 depending on saline or silcone . So while I was waiting for her to get back with me I took a look at there Instagram and completely changed my mind on doctors . I noticed she Called 2 hours later but I was at work and so I got back up with her by the end of Buisness day and told her I wanted dr.mel Ortega she said it's no problem at all and she would get him to do my evaluation. I know this is a lot to read but I really wish some of things I said were included In some of the reviews I read. Btw I did rice sizes and I think I want 500cc high profile under the muscle also I'm a 36d in Victoria secret bras and 36c in no-name bras. And another big thing is that deposit is $500 which goes to your procedure and officially locks in your date. I plan on paying that dec. 9th so I will update you guys on anything new at that time !

Congrats on finding a Dr
Just to let you know I went to Dr Desai & had silicone implants & a lift & paid 8,000
They said he moved to California? I see in Manhattan Ny?? That's so strange? Well I'm glad you found a Dr & a Great Price!!

Oh I had no idea?
What about my post op visits or if woman have complications & he is no longer around Very
Interesting
Not liking to hear that!! Thanks for the info!!

I honestly don't no I would just call but when I was interested in him being my surgeon and had to hunt for where he is currently everyone was giving me the run around . When my coordinator at Dr. Plastic surgery in NY said he was no longer working there she said she had NO idea where he went . Then I called anomously and tried to ask for him and the receptionist said he had moved to California and she didn't know the name of his facility. So I searched for him here on Instagram and saw that he was at Park Ave. In Manhattan and when I spoke to the receptionist there she told me he wasn't taking any new patients that will have surgery after Thanksgiving because that's when he was leaving for California , and there are ALOT of women that left reviews under the 3 other doctors that work at Doctors Plastic surgery who said there surgery was in March and they got a call from Doctors Plastic Surgery saying Dr.Desai won't be able to do there surgery and to pick another doctor . Which I think is absurd being that most of the ladies had already paid and were just waiting for there surgery date .

Yes!! WOW!! Never thought to ask - if he would ever be leaving NY
I would not have went to him - because I'm 3 months post op - but you never know if you have a complication & he won't be here to help you
That's not right & like you said people paid & scheduled! I wouldn't have used him If I knew he was leaving UGH!!! Thanks again for the info
I have my 3 month visit at Park Ave office Thursday

Can't wait to see your results. I'm also going to need a lift with implants and going with Ortega. Is he extremely booked? That's why it's in 3 months?
November 10, 2016
No I want to pay In full without financing so I have to save for the procedure and I also live in Virginia so I have to save to travel and lodge .

I'm looking at him for my bl w/implants. I've just started to consider him so I'm still researching his breast work. I'm from VA too. Do you know how long you will need to stay?
November 10, 2016
In the email they told me 5 days , but I'm wondering if I need to stay longer because I'm under the impression you have to wait a while to get on a plane because it can cause blood clots .

I'm only staying 5 days for my bbl in Jan. My doctor will be giving me Lovenox shots to prevent blood clots and I'll also be wearing thigh high compression socks to help.
