Negative Plastic Surgery Experience…read more I'm sharing disappointing experience with Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery. In Jun 2024, I underwent a lower face and neck lift. I had also paid for earlobe reconstruction. This procedure was forgotten due to missing paperwork. At follow-ups, concerns about loose chin skin were met with suggestions to wait or try costly treatments like Genius microneedling ($2,550). When dissatisfaction persisted, further surgeries were discouraged and more expensive treatments were recommended. In Jan 2025, after continued dissatisfaction, Dr. Reps Sundin advised that no additional procedures should be performed under the chin. He recommended a Browlift and Upper Blepharoplasty, with an estimated total cost of $10,650. When I told Dr. Sundin that I had recently retired, he said that I am now on a fixed income. His comment implied that I probably could not afford his services anymore. In Feb 2025, another plastic surgeon in Richmond Va, commented that my neck should have been pulled tighter.

Oh. My. Goodness!

Every interaction I had with Dr. Stanwix and his team, whether by phone or in-person, left me feeling heard, seen, and understood, as I made the decision to remove my implants and start a new chapter on my physical health and wellness journey. Kind, courteous, knowledgeable, attentive to detail, supportive of my concerns, were hallmarks of my interactions not only with Dr. Stanwix, but with each member of his team. Dr. Stanwix did an amazing job performing my surgery and was an absolute pleasure to interact with. Many talented doctors, particularly specialists, do amazing work, but fall short when it comes to support and communication with their patients. This is certainly not the case with Dr. Stanwix! I have complete confidence that as I continue to heal I will be welcome to contact him with any follow-up questions or concerns I might have, and that he won't make me feel like a nuisance, in fact, he has personally encouraged me to stay in touch with him and his team and to reach out if or whenever I feel the need. This kind of post-op follow-up should be the norm, but all too often it doesn't seem to be. Thank you, again, Dr. Stanwix and many thanks to your lovely team of professionals that collaborate with you and have clearly been inspired by your caring demeanor and professional integrity! You have certainly set the bar extremely high for any other healthcare professional that I will consider entrusting my health, time, and money to.

Maybe this is on me, but when establishing care with a new specialist, I would feel that all…read moreconcerns should be addressed in one visit. My primary care doctor referred me here in early December. It took until the end of June (today) to be seen. In December, I was experiencing a severe cystic/hormonal acne flare up. I suffered for several months earlier this year, but now I'm mostly just dealing with face and body scars and isolated recurrences. I hadn't seen a dermatologist in 7-8ish years, so I was looking forward to an overall skin check up. I checked in today and was brought back pretty quickly. When I mentioned wanting to address a couple of mole changes in addition to the acne to the nurse, I was told that they were too busy to do both. She checked with the doctor and returned telling me I had to pick one topic or the other. Despite acne being a priority for me, I opted for the skin scan. Especially due to recent skin cancer diagnoses in my family. The doctor was pleasant during her short time with me and answered a few questions related to the skin check. I had to schedule another visit a month out for the acne. I'm glad it's not another six months, but I am pretty disappointed regardless. I know healthcare isn't what it used to be, but maybe they could consider designating more than ten minutes for new patient exams? I felt like I was a number in a chain of patients, instead of someone she cared to get to know, and having to return to address my original issue feels like an insurance money grab. Just a bummer, is all.

While she wasn't taking any new patients, they were able to fit me in with Dr. Melson. I was nervous because I was already coming from a not great dermatology situation and couldn't find any information about her. I'm here to tell you Dr. Melson is amazing. This dermatology office is located on the second floor of a building that houses other doctor offices. There was a lot of easy free parking out front. The wait time wasn't insane, but I felt like I waited a bit longer than expected. There were also a lot of patients in the waiting room. I came to this office for a very inflamed cyst. The nurse who took my information was beyond sweet. When Dr. Melson came in, she was straight to the point, but she felt like she had the time of day for me. She was super kind and patient explaining the incision and drainage process to me. I also loved that I didn't feel judged when I needed to call my mom in the middle of the appointment to ask her about a medical history question. When I told her my antibiotic concerns, she worked with me to find the best medication. During the procedure when I asked to pause she was very receptive to this. I am so grateful that she helped.
