Your Original work of Deep Plane Facelift with upper and lower eye lift, 05/2023 and was to be with fat transfer to the eyes?? You did not do surgical marking on my face before the anesthesiologist put me under anesthesia for my deep plane facelift. My eyes are Still hollow, you did not do the fat transfer on 5/2023. My hollow eyes was the reason I came to you, but I allowed you to talk me into a deep plane facelift. I specifically had Maria (your office manager ), to ask you if the upper and lower eye lift and will that come with eye fat transfer, Maria said you said yes. 1st disappointment Then had to go to your office for a revision of left side jawline 11/2023, as you started to cut open the bottom of my chin, you said "Oh, I left Fat behind". And you charged me $200 for revision of Left side only hoping that would fix it. But it did not fix the lump on the left bottom jawline still! Then 5/2024 you did another revision left jawline under local lidocaine, no charge, but charged me 8,000 for the fat transfer to the eyes/face and they are the still hallow. You was Injecting my face with lidocaine and cutting behind the ears of the left side and fat transfer to the face but you injected most of the fat to my face only 1 mil to the eyes (still hollow eyes (02/14/2026) your assistant had to tell you that you only have 1.0 ml of fat left and you still had not transferred to the eyes AGAIN. What really amaze me is that you was ready to fire me as a patient due to me not being happy with the lump left behind and hollow eyes. You dismissed my concerns. The main key that I recognized how you failed with my facelift is that you did NOT draw on my face for the surgical markings for the deep plane facelift before I lay laid down on the OR table on 05/2023. And you did not draw on my face for the 3rd revision, mostly likely because you did not make surgical markings on the first surgery. The only surgical marking you made on 5/2023 was for the upper eyelid and Not surgical markings to lower eye lid. All I ask of you is to genuinely clean up your mess you left on my face. You should have done a total revision of my deep plane facelift for the best result. You should have pictures or video of your surgical markings to my face??? Do you?

However, that was not that great of a facelift since you have now revised her entire facelift last year 2025 according to your IG posting. And now Maria looks great after two facelifts by you!!! You dismissed my concerns and results. I realized later after the surgery, you did not implement surgical marking on my deep plane facelift prior to the anesthesiologist putting me under.

Every one of them asked me what I wanted -- but I wanted a doctor who could look at me, confidently tell me what would work best for me, and guide me with expertise. Dr. Chopra did exactly that, and I was immediately sold. From that moment on, I never once felt nervous or had second thoughts. I knew in my heart he was the right choice -- and I was absolutely right. The entire process was incredibly smooth and easy. I honestly never needed pain medication, not even over-the-counter medicine, because I truly had very little pain. My recovery was quick, and I was out and about within a week and a half. Most importantly, I am beyond pleased with my results. I look years younger while still looking completely like myself. Dr. Chopra is the best!

This will be detailed because I want to be accurate & convincing. I switched from another…read morecardiologist's office that was initiating a "boutique" or "concierge" billing system of $1500 to $2500 per year to have better access (email & cell phone), and quicker responses. This did not cover office visits, labs, or anything medical, which would still be charged per item. I told Richard Taw of this & he said that he didn't have such a billing system. That turned out to be untrue. Soon I learned that he had an "optional" concierge system costing $650/year for better & frequent access. After a number of office visits & different scans, it was determined that I needed open-heart surgery. I chose to go with a Cedars-Sinai surgeon, Dr. Khoynezhad, who specialized in aorta repair. A couple months after the surgery, the Cedars-Sinai surgical team, figuratively speaking, handed me over to Taw for monitoring & continuing cardio check-ups. So far, so good. I was in Taw's office for some records or billing reason & mentioned that I needed to ask a couple of questions about how much longer I needed to take 2 meds & when I could start exercising. The staff said that could be answered easily via phone or email if I joined the $650/year club. Otherwise I had to schedule an office visit to ask those 2 questions. I had also been encouraged on previous visits to join this $650 club, but demurred. I made an appt & came back the very next day. 5 to 8 minutes with the doc & those 2 questions (the only questions) were answered. I got the bill later. The AMA has billing codes to define & guide billing. A 99214 Level 4 Comprehensive Visit (out of 5 levels of Office Visits) includes a 1) detailed medical history, 2) detailed medical exam, & 3) medical decision that entails moderate complexity. The severity of the problem must be moderate to high. The doctor/patient face time allows up to 25 minutes. This Level 4 exam was billed at $125; whereas lower level exams involved smaller charges going down to approx. $44 for a Level 2 10-minute exam. Medicare determines billing, & scamming them is fraud. I asked the counter staff why this 2 question 5-8 minutes was Level 4. They said it was the doctor's decision & I only noticed it now because it was January, my yearly deductible hadn't been met, & thus I was paying most of the $125. Otherwise if my deductible had already been met, I wouldn't have noticed the charge. Did my unmet deductible make this overcharge right or ethical? Since the so-called "exam" did not involve any of the 3 requirements, did not involve a medical decision of "moderate complexity", and didn't come close to 25 minutes, to me this was a scam to bill as much as he might get away, and most patients wouldn't know which way was up. While I contemplated this scam or overcharge (my opinion) for a couple of weeks, a dentist was going to do a root-canal & requested a medical clearance from my cardiologist. He refused to cooperate! I phoned him and explained that I was perplexed. Richard Taw said the dentist wanted me to stop taking the blood-thinner med (Plavix) before the root-canal, & Taw DIDN'T "UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION", whether it meant to stop taking the med forever or just before the root canal. WHAT? I understood this basic question. Taw then detoured to the concept that he couldn't comment on the surgeon's prescription that I take the blood thinner after my surgery. I said that was nonsense for two reasons. 1st, the surgeon handed over my continuing medical care to the cardiologist, Richard Taw after a couple of months. This was now 3.5 months later. 2nd, Taw had already commented on the meds & told me that I didn't have to take the blood thinner after 3 months passed, which was 2 weeks previous. In addition, 3 weeks previously, another dentist needed to do an implant, and it took 2 weeks of repeated contacts and cajoling to get Taw's office to give a medical clearance for that. It was tough getting it, but he did give a medical clearance already for the dental implant. Apparently, Taw didn't like to have to do extra coordination (or paperwork) with the dentist unless I joined his $650/year club. To enforce this, Taw was simply going to refuse to cooperate and refused to give necessary and required medical services. Notice, I did not append the preface "Doctor" before Taw once. That implies a level of respect and professionalism that I believe R. Taw doesn't have. For self-entitlement, Taw gets a 5. However, self-entitlement is a negative. For professionalism, Taw gets 0 stars, but Yelp only goes down to 1 star. I ended my last phone call (requesting the medical clearance for my dentist) by telling Taw he was "fired". I don't want self-entitled individuals thinking that their patients simply faded away or switched doctors. He was fired for a lack of ethics & sense of responsibility.

Since my workup I have stayed in touch with his office and found that he and his staff are following - - with apparently great success - - the Esselstyn Regimen: eating differently by eating a plant based diet. Dr. Taw, who is a long term runner and seemingly healthy person, has committed to the new heart-healthy discipline, along with other people in his office, and they all have dramatic results in terms of better cholesterol numbers and considerable weight loss. Other cardiologists MAY mention diet changes but Dr. Taw actually practices plant based eating HIMSELF and can counsel his patients, as he did me, on how and WHY to change the way we eat. He puts his money where his mouth is. Because of his influence I have lost weight and dropped my cholesterol to below 100, TOTAL! I feel much better and I found that the eating plan is very doable. His office staff have developed recipes and their whole approach is truly life changing. So, suffice it to say that Dr. Taw has probably saved my life. I guarantee that he has extended my life.

From our consult, to our surgery and all through post op care- I have felt looked after, cared for and confident in my journey. A breast explant is an incredibly hard procedure to go through emotionally for many women for many reasons. I am so grateful that I had somebody so warm and so skilled to guide me through the process. Even on my surgery date when I was teary and afraid, I felt deeply comforted and looked after by everyone around me. It was the safest, and best possible place to be. Although it is hard returning to a chest I originally ran from, my results couldn't be better. I originally had thick red scars from my implant surgery, Dr Kanevsky even took the time to remove that scar tissue and make my scars smaller and thinner than they were previously (I can't tell you how ecstatic I am about this) I am so excited to begin my life with natural breast tissue, without pain or discomfort. My results are better than I could have hoped for and my care has been above and beyond. I also want to say thank you to Sara in the office who I believe was my main communication in office. She was extremely patient, warm and sweet with me always, she was so helpful and always got back to me quickly, answering all 1 million and 1 questions I had :) she's amazing!
