He has a great eye for delivering natural results and is incredibly knowledgeable. His staff is always warm and welcoming, and he has such a calm, attentive bedside manner. He really takes the time to listen and understand your concerns. One of the biggest benefits has been the relief from my headaches. The Botox has significantly reduced my pain and has made a noticeable difference in my day to day life. I didn't realize how much it was affecting me until I finally experienced consistent relief. I tend to downplay my own health issues, so I especially appreciate how thorough and thoughtful he's been. Without ever being pushy, he helped identify things I had brushed off for years, like a deviated septum and valve concerns etc. I had normalized my breathing difficulties, but thanks to his approach, I'm finally taking charge of my health and moving forward with the right specialist care. I'm so grateful, not just for the natural results, but for the real improvement in my quality of life. Thank you Dr. Conderman.

Now I can use just the minimum needed to enhance features.   In addition to his impressive surgical skill, Dr. Conderman's relaxed personality and approachable demeanor made me comfortable from our first meeting.  He allowed plenty of time in my appointments to answer all my questions, and his follow-up care was equally attentive.  Staff at both his office and the surgery center were friendly, courteous, and efficient. They always made me feel welcome. I couldn't have chosen a better doctor, and I'm very lucky, and grateful, to be his patient.

When I was growing up, I watched my grandpa die slowly from melanoma. In the summer of 2015, when I…read morewas 22 years old, I was officially diagnosed with an in-situ type of melanoma (skin cancer). It was too large to be cut out at the office. Dr. Stephen Daane was kind in delivering me the news and describing the path I needed to take to get the cancer removed before it spread. He clearly communicated it was an urgent matter, and that if I did not have it removed as soon as possible it could grow and spread. Spread far enough and I would need chemotherapy. He was also effective in communicating that they would not know until they went in to remove it whether or not the cancer had spread. Come the day of the surgery, I was unfamiliar with the procedure. Remove one's clothing, put on a gown, put one's clothing in a bag, then in a locker, and it would be retrieved after the surgery. No metal was allowed in the case of resuscitation (like CPR) being necessary. The melanoma was not too far from my spine on my back, and Dr. Daane and his helpers were successful in getting all of the cancer out. As of writing this review, on Sunday 30 April 2023, I am 30 years old and still grateful things went well. My only one downside, the reason for the 4 and not a 5 star review, was that parking on each of my visits to the office was horrible. San Francisco parking in general can be gnarly, and this area was no exception. I found allocating a little bit of extra time to find parking to be helpful.

Dr Persons is very friendly and caring. She did a bilateral breast lift and implants on me in…read more2021in her office operating room under sedation. I immediately had issues. The scar on the right side got infected and was draining pus. Antibiotics healed the infection but a large keloid scar developed. Also the stitches around both areolas were poking through the skin in places resulting in red dots around the areolas. The left breast also developed keloids. I've had surgery before and never developed keloids on my skin. Within a year an encapsulation, which is scarring around the implant from a bacterial infection, developed around the left implant. This made my left breast hard and painful. Dr Persons recommended a 'closed capsulotomy' which entailed pressing the implant very firmly between her hands and squeezing until the capsule breaks. There was a VERY LOUD popping sound which made me exclaim WOW! It was so loud I looked at her to see if that was normal or expected. She just smiled. She prescribed a medication to help prevent the scarring around the implant from re-forming. That breast stayed soft for about a month then became hard again. Over the next year I returned several times to get this issue resolved. My breast was getting harder and more painful. She was never able to get the capsule reduced again but kept prescribing the same medication. At one point she had her assistant pushing hard on her elbows for extra force as she applied pressure to my breast. When that didn't work she suggested I come back when her boyfriend (a physical therapist) was available! (WTF?) I asked alternatives. The alternative was surgery. There was no way I was going to have her redo this botched surgery, so I started researching options. I requested my records for the surgeon I chose. I couldn't believe what the records said. The last visit Dr Persons wrote 'breasts look great." Unbelievable, the breast was deformed and hard! The right breast had escaped its "pouch" and was drooping toward the right. The new surgeon replaced my implants, she had to lift the breasts more because they weren't in the right place.The right implant was too far to the right and she had to fix the pocket. The left breast was a mess: the left implant was ruptured! There was silicone scarred into my muscles. Parts of the muscles had to be removed to get the silicone out. Since my breasts never had any impact other than the squeezing from Dr Persons I'm certain she ruptured the left implant when she squeezed my breast so hard when there was that loud pop. I'm all healed now, looking great without deformed breasts, keloids, or red marks around my areolas. The breasts are where they should be, symmetrical and soft. My recommendation for Dr Persons-stay away! PS: years ago I had laser hair removal in the surgical room 2 or 3 times when other rooms weren't available. People shouldn't walk in off the street and have procedures in an operating room -those rooms are supposed to be sterile!

I had a competent surgeon perform facial surgery on me several years ago, and although it looked…read moregreat for about 5 years, 5 years and tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket is not a lot of bang for the buck. So recently when I decided on rhinoplasty and various facial nips and tucks, I did a considerable amount of research. I learned that despite being a common procedure, rhinoplasty is incredibly complex. Although any plastic surgeon might attempt it, it soon became clear to me that only a double board certified facial plastic surgeon has the education to perform a reliable rhinoplasty, deep plane facelift, lip lift, or really most any facial procedure.  Narrowing my search to SF Bay Area double board certified plastic surgeons, I started reading reviews and comparing CVs. I checked state board records, Reddit, Yelp, Google Reviews, HealthGrades, etc etc.  Of all the CVs I examined, Dr. Matthew Tamplen's was the most impressive by a large margin. From his GPA and his awards to his prestigious fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Tamplen's background was not just impeccable, it reflected an unmatched depth of training and talent. Reading his online reviews further impressed me.  I did consult with several Bay Area facial plastic surgeons, and found all but one to be knowledgeable. Upon meeting Dr. Tamplen, I found him relaxed, confident, and professional but still congenial.  I settled on him to do my procedures and couldn't be happier.  Every procedure Dr. Tamplen did was simply perfect.  I'm not sure what more I can say about the results. His education and experience are reflected in my outcome.  Scars are minimal, and I look naturally refreshed. My nose is refined and subtly shaped. Despite my husband's oft repeated fears, it's not "a Michael Jackson look," and even he is impressed.  The intensive research really paid off. I found the best double board certified facial plastic surgeon in the bay area, and probably the country.  I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Tamplen.

In July of 2022 at age 65 I retired and my entire life I wanted a beautiful straight, symmetrical…read morenostrils, less bulbose tip of my nose and a less wide nose. First Time: After three consults with different surgeons in the Scottsdale, Az area I chose Dr. Tamplen. Paid him his 14k for the Rhino. He and his team were great, but the first Rhino was very botched. Not straight, crooked column, assymetrical wierd nostrils. Second try: To try and fix the my crooked nose he performed an "in the office" alar procedure to try to make my nose straight. Nose was still messed up looking. Third Try: Dr. Tamplen actually took me back in to surgery of where I was excited to think maybe he would take all avenues that many cosmetic surgeons take to make a nose straight. There are many techniques a surgeon can do to construct a straight symmetrical nose. Again, to my sadness, my nose was still crooked. I still looked deformed. Fourth Try: In February 2026 I scheduled the fourth time, but cancelled and rescheduled for April 3, 2026. I spent money to fly to AZ waiting for the day to come. About a few days before the procedure, an office lady called me and told me I needed to pay $ 2,500 for the surgery time. I was so surprised because all along all Dr. Tamplen and his staff would say " all we want you to be happy with the outcome so we will do whatever it takes." I was very upset about this because my sister had her facelift revised by Dr. Tamplen, for free of charge. The office lady said, well we have done a lot for you and your sister. I told her well I am a different patient and why can't he perform my revision free? I got so upset that I said to forget it and never tried a fourth time. You will see in the pictures how crooked and messed up my nose it. I don't even want to look at a person straight on. My advice is to ask the surgeon what he is actually go to to perform a Rhinoplasty. Ask if he is going to take part of the rib, or other grafts to do a perfect job. I always wonder how do accident victims get their faces fixed so nicely after scars and more? He kept blaming my crooked nose on a scar below my nostril. My nose looked better before I had Rhinoplasty. Also just because a surgeon is top notch in their class does not mean they have "artistic" ability. If anyone knows of a great Rhinoplasty surgeon, email me at juli1956@yahoo.com. I am 70 now but still would like a straight narrow, symmetrical nose for my last 10-20 years of life. I picked the wrong surgeon, although he was very kind but I think he did the minimum when performing procedures, so find out first exactly what they are going to use and do to make it right. Thank you.
