    My experience with Dr. Smith and the entire surgical, clinical, and office staff far exceeded all…read moreof my expectations! As a plus-size woman, I expected only modest results, which I would have been happy with. But Dr. Smith completely proved me wrong! From my very first consultation, everything was explained thoroughly, and I felt informed and comfortable throughout the entire process. The pricing was very fair, especially considering I had an extended abdominoplasty, liposuction, and a fat transfer to my buttocks (BBL). Scheduling my surgery was simple, and before my procedure I had another appointment where every detail was reviewed, including what to expect during recovery and everything I needed to do beforehand. I was especially impressed by how proactive the team was. They arranged my cardiac clearance, blood work, started me on antibiotics, and made sure I had all of my medications before surgery, which made the entire experience much less stressful. My surgical package also included an overnight nurse, my compression garment (faja), and all follow-up appointments, which added tremendous value. The on-site surgical center is beautiful, modern, and state of the art. When I saw my results on the very first day after surgery, I was absolutely stunned. Even while wearing my compression garment, my lower hanging belly was completely gone. The emotions and joy I felt are impossible to put into words. During the first two weeks of recovery, I had several follow-up appointments, and every member of the staff was caring, patient, and accommodating. Whenever I had questions or concerns, I could email or call, and Natasja always responded quickly with reassurance and support. We had one small scheduling mix-up, but the staff resolved it immediately and made the situation completely stress-free. I also had lymphatic massages with Lindsey, and she was absolutely amazing. She made such a difference in my recovery and was wonderful to work with. I truly cannot say enough about Dr. Smith and his incredible team. Their professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail and sense of humor made this an exceptional experience from beginning to end. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me feel confident, healthy, and beautiful--both inside and out. I highly recommend Dr. Smith and his entire staff to anyone considering cosmetic surgery. Adding pictures was a little intimidating, but I wanted to show my actual results!

I did a rhino plasty along with a lip lift that turned out amazing, then more recently had Vaser Liposuction and following that a face lift. All my experiences have been better than expected, Dr. Smith really truly cares about the beauty he can create with his extensive experience and I could not be happier. Hopefully I am done for the time being, "I Hope" LOL - Chasing Beauty and or Perfection is clearly an ongoing scenario. Whatever your needs are I highly recommend the staff and Dr. Smith Just to note, everything is done in house in his facility, EVERYTHING, no need to go anywhere else but LEVEL 1 his own personal surgery center.

    Yelp frequently gets it right but this rating is inaccurate when there are near 5 star reviews on…read moreother social media sites for this practice. That is because there aren't many reviews here statistically enough to create an accurate average as of yet. My only minor criticism is their outsourced overseas call center makes me a bit nervous as some of their information was inaccurate. That said they did a good job of booking me with a prompt appt. I left a practice recently that only allowed texting with their office reps who were lame.I'd like to see them move customer service into their own hands/offices.They should improve this as the quality and reputation of the practice warrants a premium level of customer service of which they have much to be proud of in my early overview. Moving along with the important stuff Its all about the experience and knowledge of your practitioner. This was my second visit with PA-C Anroux Mey and I am blown away by his outgoing friendly personality,positive energy, kindness empathy and professional suggestions with my challenges.I am a jaded ex New Yorker who generally dislikes any medical office but he makes it a positive experience as if your family member or best friend is looking after you in your best interest. I was also impressed with his prior service to our country in the military as well as his medical background. They really don't come any better and @ this early stage unlike some other practices they seem to be flexible and available to book an appt with.No massive waits to see them.......yet! A shout out also to Pam his medical assistant who also has her own good vibe lets take care of you attitude above and beyond. Its obvious they both like what they do,take professional pride and serve with passion their patients. Where do you even find that these days where some Drs and assistants look miserable suck the life out of a room when they walk in? Then announce I have 3 minutes to converse and run out the door after you waited an eternity to see them ;) My only concern is when they get fully discovered more known they will be tough to get an appt with. As many may know there is a shortage of quality Drs and highly competent medical professionals here in Las Vegas. You will be very lucky to be a patient here in my early perception This ones a keeper so far Highly Recommended

    I absolutely love Dr. Sohn. There aren't enough words to…read moredescribe how wonderful he is not only as a surgeon but a compassionate doctor and person. I truly appreciate him. His entire team especially Susan were so easy to communicate with. There wasn't one time that Susan did not respond to an email or a phone call, she was always available to talk to me, if I had to leave a message she always called me back right away. From day one they were respectful, caring, and detail oriented. Two weeks prior to my surgery I was calling them almost daily with different questions and concerns and they always responded with cheerful answers and great detail. Another thing that I thought was very surprising and I appreciate so very much is that I never had to wait. When it was my time to see the doctor he was in the room with me. I'm four weeks out from a full tummy tuck and breast lift, all of my follow up visits have been exactly what I needed. They're very accommodating to supplies, when I ran out and offered and supplied me with new compression belts and support bras. I just can't say enough Amazing things about Dr. Sohn and his whole team. I highly recommend him to everyone who needs/wants to get anything done.

They had me waiting until 3:45 pm until they took me back in. I asked several times when my procedure was Going to start and no one could give me a straight answer. Mike you were great. Thank you for helping me feel better about myself, but I did not appreciate having to wait to long. When I told Mike's assistant that "finally I was able o Go back and I had been waiting over an hour" she blatantly ignored me To be fair I did not mind waiting, but since I required a ride home, it was very unfair for them to be waiting on the back burner when I was supposed to go in at 2:30.

My skin was flawless but after I had my son I wanted my body back. That's what I told him. 'The procedure is very straight forward', he said. A few incisions and 3-6 months later, I'd be snatched.' That's it. In retrospect, I was desperate and naive and I just accepted what he told me. I hate myself for accepting his passivity and lack of enthusiasm or empathy or AESTHIC at all. I hate my stomach and I hate myself for not doing more research, or ask more questions or just waiting until I found someone with better bedside manners. He's cold, detached and rough with his hands. After surgery I swelled, Bad. I retained enormous amounts of fluid. And even with rest, Pineapple, massage and faha I could not get rid of it. Thats not the worst part. My stomach NEVER healed. It's been 3 years and my stomach still looks deformed, like there's a live alien inside. I'm an avid Yogi, Pilates and Kaleistenics practitioner and there's nothing (natural) that can fix it. I work really hard to flatten my belly but no matter what I do, it still looks deformed. I was very vocal and communicative around the problem. I was advised to wait for the results. It took 9 months before I was able to go back to yoga. I went on Ozempic to lose the weight. It worked! But still the Alien belly. My belly button is 2 inches to the right (way off center) and what was smooth and pretty on the outside is now rough and bumpy. I used to have a 6 pack before the baby. So with the surgery, yoga, pilates etc yes, I am expecting my body back, still fighting to get it right. Recently, I reached back out for answers (I thought it was intentional) because it's beyond anything I can do and I don't want to go under again, ever. Any suggestions on what to do next???

    I originally went to Dr. Herte after being botched by another doctor, which left me with a lump in…read moremy lower abdomen. During my consultation, she immediately recognized it as a seroma and confidently explained that she could fix it--without trying to upsell or push unnecessary procedures. This stood out to me because other doctors I saw wanted to perform a full tummy tuck, which I didn't need, and never even identified the actual issue. I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Herte and her entire team. From the moment I walked in for surgery, I felt truly cared for and at ease. Instead of a typical surgical center setting, I was placed in a room with a comfortable recliner chair, which immediately made me feel more relaxed--almost like I was at home. The nurse sat with me, talked me through everything, and started my IV in such a calm and reassuring way. The room even had a beautiful mural on the wall, which added to the peaceful atmosphere and helped ease my nerves. The anesthesiologist was also incredibly kind and took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and informed. When Dr. Herte came in, she was just as warm and reassuring--she explained everything clearly and made me feel completely confident in her care. Walking into the operating room, the entire team continued to be supportive and kind, which made a huge difference in calming my nerves. Dr. Herte truly cares about her patients, not just profit--and that is rare. Now, post-surgery, my seroma is completely gone. The lump is gone, and my scar is barely visible--it's honestly the best scar I've ever seen from any surgery. I couldn't be happier with my results. Her care didn't stop after surgery either. She and her team have seen me weekly for follow-ups, and she personally checks on me each time. That level of attention and care speaks volumes. I only wish I had gone to her in the first place--but I'm so grateful I found her. She is an exceptional surgeon and a genuinely caring person.

I went to a few other consults with other surgeons before I ended up making the decision to have Dr. Herte do my revision and I definitely made the right choice going with her! She swapped out my 300cc saline implants that were 13 years old and replaced them with a little bit larger silicone implants. She also preformed a modified lift on one side and was able to hide my incisions in the crease under my breast so they are not visible. She also had to revise my pockets and release some tissue tightness to make sure the shape of my breast were evenly round. Even after having all that done I am experiencing very minimal bruising and swelling. I appreciate her attention to every detail big and small. She helped me pick out the perfect size for my body and made me feel very confident with my size choice going into surgery. Surgery day went very smooth, her staff consisting of her nurses and anesthesiologist were so kind and made the whole experience a great one. Thank you Dr. Herte, I never thought I would be this happy with my breast. You did an incredible job and I look forward to seeing the healed results!

Nurse friends of friends, patients, providers-- they all say only wonderful things about him. That boosted my confidence going into surgery. As a nurse with over 20 years in healthcare, I have seen many providers that truly meet expectations but few go above and beyond. I personally experienced this first-hand. After my discharge, he personally made sure I received my medication when there was an issue with the pharmacy. He was quick to answer my text and quicker to come to my rescue. That level of care and responsibility is rare, especially from a provider of his caliber. (I was deeply moved, I get teary-eyed every time I tell my friends this story). He could've delegated it but having the mindset of a great leader, he didn't. It was his "the-buck-stops-here" and " I-got-you" kind of mindset that truly impressed me. This was only possible because he has such a kind heart. What also stands out is his dedication to mentoring others. He has several nurse practitioners under his wing whom he has trained exceptionally well. This benefits our entire community -- expanding access to high-quality, compassionate care.

The person I spoke with said there were a number of forms to fill out and I asked if they could be emailed to me. They were and I filled them out and had them ready for when I arrived instead of balancing a clipboard while holding an insurance card, et. al. I don't know why we're still killing trees for these medical practice forms, but this was a bonus for me! When I arrived yesterday, I simply had to check over the information on one paper, sign it, and then have a seat. I was early. In a very short time, I was called by his medical assistant who took all the vitals. I was then shown to a waiting room with a welcome sign for me. Nice touch. In a very short time, Dr. Chung came in and we spoke about why I was there. We left the exam room and went to his office where he showed me the PET scan from the disc I had brought with me. He told me I had 4 options from doing nothing to the most aggressive. We both settled on the second option--a CT scan in 6 months--recommended by the radiologist and by Dr. Google. We can see if anything changes during that time and then decide what option is best. Before leaving, Dr. Chung gave me his business card and circled his cell phone number telling me if I woke in a cold sweat some morning and decided I needed to do one of the other options, call him on his cell. The first time that ever happened. I got the paperwork I'll need in November and the office will contact me to help arrange the CT scan. I was on my way to the elevator within 20 minutes of my scheduled time. This is the first physician I've ever given a 5 star rating and it's well deserved. On time appointment (and I know that can't always happen), very pleasant staff, a highly recommended physician by two others, with great knowledge and experience. If it happens that he has to be Edward Scissorhands sometime in the future, I know I'll be in good hands, so to speak!
