I have been a patient at The Plastic Surgery Institute in Rancho Mirage for the past 20 years, and…read morethere's a reason I continue to go back. My first breast augmentation was in 2006 with Dr. Suzanne Quardt, and from the very beginning the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. Since then, I've continued returning for medspa services and have consistently had excellent experiences. Both Samantha Marchesson, RN, and Angela Wright, NP, are extremely skilled and knowledgeable in all things skin-related. My concerns are always addressed in an educational, thoughtful, and planned way, and I couldn't be happier with my results. More recently, I've been seeing Angela, and she takes great care in helping me work toward my long-term goals without ever making me feel rushed. What I appreciate most is the honesty and professionalism. I always leave feeling confident that the results we're aiming for are not only right for me, but truly achievable. In a world where social media can push trends and unrealistic expectations, it's important to find a local practice with a reputation built on real, lasting results. I trust The Plastic Surgery Institute completely and wouldn't go anywhere else.

I've trusted the staff at the Plastic Surgery Institute for nine years now. I received Botox at…read moreanother office in Rancho Mirage for about a decade. At some point I wasn't satisfied with the long office wait times (I was on time) and wasn't particularly thrilled with my outcome. Although it was priced lower than some other places in the desert, it almost felt like it was watered down for lack of a better description. I began to look for a better option. I tried a dermatologist in the desert and thought the outcome was okay but didn't appreciate the long wait time for my appt, when I was on time. A RN friend recommended Samantha at the Plastic Surgery Institute and I've been seeing her for all my needs since 2017. I've been treated by fantastic by the entire staff and the are experts who are experienced in what they do. The staff has always been nothing but kind, respectful, professional, and welcoming. The office is clean, comfortable and doesn't have that hospital feel like my former provider. I am always seen within minutes of signing in for my appointment. Samantha doesn't recommend anything I don't need or push products. She gives honest feedback. I trust her to make sure I look my best.

I paid $5,000 for Botox and filler and the results were worse than doing nothing…read more After waiting 90 minutes, the doctor spent about five minutes with me total--including the injections--and did not evaluate my face beforehand. The Botox didn't work where it was supposed to and instead left my face uneven and distorted. When I raise my eyebrows, my expression looks bizarre and exaggerated. My smile lines look worse than before. The Botox in my jaw caused weeks of pain and bruising, and I still have difficulty chewing. The filler in my jawline left it sagging and heavier instead of more defined. It took several attempts to get a follow-up call scheduled, but the real issue was the dismissive attitude during that call. I was told that of the $5,000 I paid, only $1,000 was attributed to Botox--and that they would only consider refunding a portion of that. I still have not received any refund in any amount. At any price, this level of care and professionalism is unacceptable.

They were able to schedule an appointment within a couple of weeks. When I went in for my appointment, the office was clean, the staff was knowledgeable, and Brittany was very kind. She answered all my questions, and gave me tips on what I need to do to reduce scarring. She was able to remove the mold the same day. It's been about a month since the mole was removed, and it is healing so well! Just a little bit of redness, and I really think the scar will be very minimal! I did not use insurance for this procedure, and I thought the costs were very reasonable and fair. For any additional dermatology needs, I will make my way back to this center.
