Doctors/surgeons are always hard to review on Yelp for a plethora of reasons. But Dr. Deborah…read moreBlades, Neurosurgeon at St. Vincent's, is an angel on earth. If any back/spine/neck/nerve/head issues apply to you, get a referral (she is referral-only for new patients) and make an appointment with her immediately. She will find what other doctors probably failed to find and be able to help get you on the right path quicker then anyone else could. Pay out of pocket if you have to. I've never met a more thorough, compassionate and innovative doctor in my life that's first response isn't just to cut you open. Let's start with something important: her office informed me she runs late because she spends a lot of time with her patients. Sounds, fair right? Most doctors run late. With Dr. Blades, I had an 11am appointment with a requested 10:45am arrival. I wasn't seen until almost 3pm. Yes, you read that right. Next time, i'm bringing an arsenal of snacks, my laptop, and a pillow to snooze in the exam room. That was a long time. I felt very drained by the time it was my turn. But once Dr. Blades got to me, and we concluded our appointment, I didn't care. I would've waited all day for her. I've never hugged a doctor in my life until her. She'll spend as much time with you as you need (she doesn't rush) and won't try to just prescribe meds and send you on your way (like many doctors often do). She really studies everything and even went out of her way to personally make a few calls to doctors she thought would be of benefit to me. If you seek a doctor for any of the above, you know how draining this sector of medicine can be. I wish I found her sooner and I hope this review will help others find her more quickly then I did.

I had a lower facelift and neck lift with Dr. Matt Goldschmidt on April 29, 2025, and almost a year…read morelater I am still dealing with the fallout. After surgery, I developed a seroma and have had severe pain, pressure, and ongoing issues that never should have been brushed off the way they were. I understand no surgery comes with guarantees, but there is a huge difference between a known complication and a doctor who does not meaningfully deal with it when it happens. What has been most disturbing to me is not just the outcome, it's how little accountability there has been. I spent nearly a year trying to handle this privately and reasonably. I asked for help. I asked for resolution. I asked for my records and contract. What did I get? Five photos and a letter basically telling me that he might consider a partial refund only if I removed my review and agreed not to say anything further. That told me everything I needed to know. At that point, it became very clear that Dr. Goldschmidt seemed far more concerned about his reputation and online reviews than about the actual patient sitting in front of him dealing with pain, complications, and a failed result. And yes, I am now looking at revision surgery elsewhere. That is not a small thing. This was not cheap. This was not minor. And this has affected me physically, emotionally, and financially for nearly a full year. Patients deserve to know when a doctor appears more focused on controlling reviews than taking real accountability when something goes wrong. If this is how complications are handled behind the scenes, I think that is deeply concerning, and I do have to wonder how many other patients have been treated this way after the fact. For context, I am including a photo of the written response I received after repeated attempts to resolve this matter. This review reflects my honest experience

Long story short: The doctor wasn't empathetic and was hard to communicate with. I felt like my concerns weren't taken seriously. I actually left my appointment feeling upset and frustrated, which was hard to shake. I was later able to sync up with another doctor outside of this practice who took my concerns seriously and was able to get the open and positive relationship I desired. I didn't have great interactions with the office staff. The whole experience was uncomfortable. I don't dispute that they have probably offered life saving care to patients and maybe just have speciality areas they excel in.
