I guarantee there aren't enough characters allowed in these reviews for me to express how strongly…read moreI recommend Dr. Tattini. But I'll try to summarize. I went to see Dr. Tattini after a very troubling consultation with another surgeon in Bloomington. The other surgeon was very short with me and told me what I wanted to do was impossible and I didn't feel that he was really even listening to me. I went away from that appointment less $100 and a little bit of my dignity. Thankfully I didn't give up. On a friends recommendation, I contacted Twin City Plastic Surgery. When I called, I was put on the phone with Alex. I felt immediately at ease. Where the other office staff was short and disorganized, Alex was warm and listened to what I was saying and made me feel like I was a friend. At my consultation appointment, I met Alex and also Regina, both incredibly kind and efficient. I'd had a mastopexy and lift with implants 8 years prior and have always felt far too large. At that time I really didn't know what I wanted because I had never had enough lift to even measure a size, I just wore several sports bras to sort of smoosh them into place. So I ended up huge. Dr. Tattini came in and measured me and we talked about what I was looking to achieve and what he would feel comfortable doing. It was like talking to a friend. A very knowledgeable friend. I did not hesitate. I made an appointment for the surgery right then and there (and by the way, the price I was given at the first consultation, for half of what I wanted to have done, was $4,000 higher than Dr. Tattini, and didn't include consultation or lab work). His office is located above an outpatient surgical center, which is where I reported for surgery a week and a half later. I will review the surgical center separately but they were also amazing, and I was treated like I was cared for and not like I was just another patient to be shuffled around. After surgery, I spent two 1/2 days home from work and have since eased my way back into normal life. What I had was a pretty major surgery. 4 hours. And the result? Perfect! I feel confident wearing clothes, I feel like I can dress in a way that makes me feel modest and tasteful now that I'm not so large. I know what I asked Dr. Tattini was a tall order and he and I did talk about the possibility that he might not be able to get me both lift and size reduction as much as I wanted because they are sort of opposing forces. But he did. And I am so very grateful. It's all about being able to feel comfortable on your own skin. I was able to buy a beautiful dress for the Easter service at church and for once I felt like a normal woman, not a circus freak. Every follow up appointment I've had has felt comfortable and easy. Regina and Amanda removed my stitches and we talked and laughed the whole time which really helped distract me from the crazy itching! The staff is amazing. Scheduling is easy. Dr. Tattini is some sort of miracle worker. The outpatient center is wonderful. Do not waste your time and money getting a consultation for surgery elsewhere. Honestly.

I went in for a breast augmentation consult. At that time he did something called rapid breast…read moreenhancement which required no pain meds. His manner was very curt and off putting. He said he wouldn't do that procedure without also doing a breast lift. He claimed it would be painless and I could go out to dinner the same night. He also claimed that the implants could stay in for over 20yrs. He insisted on silicone and said it was perfectly safe. All were red flags. I thought he'd give me an idea of implant size but I was left alone in a room with implant inserts to try on. I wanted input because I didn't know how big would be too big with the lift. All he had said is you'll regret not going big and then left. It seems like a bigger implant could cause stress on the lift stitches. Then the sales lady came in with paperwork insisting that I sign the contract. That's when I gave up and left. I'm so glad I did, this is not the doctor I want when making a big decision. I never saw him again or heard from his office.

I went in for a breast augmentation consultation, and from the jump Dr. Kurley gave off bad vibes; stereotypically arrogant, rude, cocky air about him. Condescending, and wouldn't let me ask questions. He also freaked out in the middle of the consult and asked me if I had a hidden recording device...all of this and I still ended up letting him do surgery on me. Right before going in for surgery, I explained to him that I was concerned the implants were not the right volume for me; he disregarded my concern and more or less said he knows better than me, and I woke up depressed and extremely disappointed. I started crying to the nurse, who then brought Dr. Kurley back in, who sat in front of me and belittled me and told me I was wrong for feeling upset, and then started rattling off his credentials, almost bragging to me about what an amazing Dr he is. All the while I am still waking up from the anesthesia, horrified, and asked the nurse (whom I later discovered is Dr Kurley's WIFE), to have him leave the room. He also made several comments about how it is women's fault for not being better patients and coming back to his practice to "fix issues." This was hands down the worst outcome/experience possible for me. I wanted to have this done right the first time, now I'm going to have to pay more money to have a better Dr do it again, not to mention have to go under anesthesia and through surgery AGAIN. P.S. I was texting my boyfriend the whole time describing each creepy room I entered so they would know where to find me if something happened...the office was by far the weirdest, creepiest office and so unprofessional. It looked like a room you'd take the SATs in in the '90s.
