Overall Amazing!!! - Read on for a Real Experience with Both Ups and Downs Along the Way

Plastic surgery is more of an art than a science. Dr. Weintraub is an amazing artist!!

I had been wanting an abdominoplasty for many years after dropping more than 110lbs nearly 2 decades ago. On my 50th year, I decided to treat myself to the procedure. After interviewing 5 surgeons, I decided on Dr. Weintraub. Initially, I was very impressed with his credentials and experience. After meeting him, I was impressed with how much time he spent reviewing the procedure as well as the pros and cons of what I was considering. He took the time to explain everything to me and everyone in his office was stellar with communication as well as availability.

He operates within his own facility located on 5th Avenue in Manhattan - so his prices are not the lowest - but the service I got was more than worth the cost I paid. Read on to find out more.

The procedure was well explained to me several times. All of my questions were answered. The whole process was relatively quick from the time I walked into the office to the time I was operated on. Dr. Weintraub removed my loose skin and I felt amazing after seeing the original results.

Over the next 2-3 months, some fat settled in areas that made the work look abnormal. It was pooling more on the left than the right - and it made me feel abnormal in a lot of ways. This is not the fault of anyone. Everyone's body is different, and mine is unique - just as yours is as well. I had high expectations and as the fat started to settle, I started getting upset with how it looked and how much time, recovery effort, and money I spent on the procedure.

When I voiced my concerns to Dr. Weintraub he became incredibly concerned. I went in for several more evaluations and we spoke about potential revision options. After a longer period of time, I became very depressed and did not like the way my body turned out... it was a very dark period in my life for a few months.

Dr. Weintraub was thoroughly AMAZING throughout my entire emotional journey. He is so experienced and skilled in what he does. A true expert in the field.

In the end, Dr. Weintraub fully re-did the procedure - without charging me for the re-work. He spent more time evaluating how the original result ended up after a few months of recovery (again, this was no one's fault, just my body is not like other bodies and sometimes things settle differently). This extra time resulted in the best possible abdominoplasty I could ever have hoped for.

I give Dr. Weintraub my highest recommendation for plastic surgeons in New York City (and possibly anywhere in the world). He not only does AMAZING work. He is wholly dedicated to his patients happiness both BEFORE and AFTER the procedure. If I could give him 10 stars I would. It may cost a little more up front - but I can personally attest that it is worth it in the end when he takes care of you in a personal way that I have rarely ever experienced with any other physician.
