Review content:
I just read the very few negative reviews of Dr. Ellenbogen and one said he/she found the positive reviews ""skeptical"". I find that one skeptical and that person did not even have surgery.
I discovered Dr. Ellenbogen after doing a web search for the best plastic surgeons in the country. I had recently had breast augmentation in my home town, Eugene, Or., by ""THE"" leading, top-notch surgeon. I had pain any time I moved my arms and they were very hard--but the doctor insisted it was all normal.
I contacted Dr. Ellenbogen's office as a fluke (because I am by no means wealthy), and described the problems. He called me himself a few days later and discussed the problem. I was amazed that a Beverly Hills surgeon would call someone himself and he was genuinely concerned and empathetic.
I decided to fly there for a consultation. I found him to be extremely kind, personable, very easy to talk to, very professional. I think his credentials and real reviews and ratings speak for themselves.
I had a revision done and he found what was suspected: severe capsular contracture with hardened tissue all the way to my arm pit! And this was seconded by colleagues who attended the surgery. I was so angry at the doctor who performed the original surgery, who saw me for months afterwards but refused to acknowledge my concerns--I was in pain cooking dinner every night! I should write a review about him!
Somebody else mentioned over the muscle vs under the muscle. I am very thin too but he also placed the new ones over and other than looking a little perkier than my age, they look and feel very natural. Under the muscle (for me-I am sure this is personal preference), was uncomfortable when I worked out at the gym.
In addition, I had a serious injury when I was 20 that left permanent nerve damage. Dr. Ellenbogen has tried and succeeded several times at alleviating that pain when even neurologists have failed and this was done at nominal cost, purely out of an attempt to alleviate pain. I know very few doctors who actually want to help a patient in this day and age.
Again, Dr. Ellenbogen is easy to talk to, answers all questions thoroughly, and is an expert in his field.
Additionally, I cannot say enough good things about the surgical staff--the anesthesiologist and the nurses with me pre and post-surgery were so unbelievably kind, compassionate, and patient. It is a scary time but they make it easy and the doctor comes to reassure you and answer any final questions beforehand. I felt like I was in very good hands from start to finish and the results exceed my expectations.
I would recommend Dr. Ellenbogen and his staff to anyone.
