After signing a few papers, her RN Tia came out and took us back to a room. Tia was amazing and super nice!! She got everything going and kept us informed on what was next and approximate wait times. Her quality of care for my wife was 10/10!! Once they took her back for the surgery I received a phone call from Dr. Vande Ven approximately 55 minutes later and she said everything went great. 30 minutes later I received another phone call from Tia who took me back to see my wife. Tia assisted me in placing her in a wheelchair and gave me home care instructions prior to leaving. Today's experience was great and all staff were great. I would definitely recommend Dr. Vande Ven and Beautology Surgery Center.

Dr Ghodsian was a gift. After months trying to figure out what was wrong with my 21 year old…read moregrandson, numinous doctors, exams and procedures, I found Dr. Ghodsian. His office is in Southern California but he goes to Bakersfield once a month and that is where we saw him. Very friendly and yet professional at the same time. My grandson was nervous, as you can imagine, but Dr Ghodsian put him at ease immediately. He asks questions and gives answers. He diagnosed my grandson in one visit and set him up on a routine to improve his quality of life. The answers he gave us hit the nail on the head, and we were so relieved that there is no more procedures or surgeries involved. We walked out of the building with smiles on our faces. If the doctor was a general practitioner I would hook up with him immediately. Loved him and HIGHLY recommend you go see him first with your "butt" problems. We could've saved ourselves a lot of time, money and pain if we had just gone to see Dr. Ghodsian first. Oh! And his staff are wonderful, they work with you and make this process easy, answer all your questions without making you feel like you are just another number on a chart.

I explained the reason for my visit and my concerns, after an examination he decided a minor surgery would be required, he said it would be a 5 minute procedure. I felt relieved, I was in good hands. I met with Maria to set up my surgery date she provided me with all the information and instructions. Maria was excellent. My visit lasted about 40 minutes and I was out the door.

My wife had the sleeve with Dr Irani and hit her goal weight in target time. My mother is about to have the bypass with Dr Moon.

In total I believe we are currently close to 500lbs lost and my revision and my mothers surgery will push us up to over 600lbs. This office is amazing, the staff is sweet and fast, the Doctors are patient and understanding. Wouldn't recommend any where else for these types of procedures.

My underarms were a huge problem area and this service has changed the way I feel about myself, so I would highly recommend laser to anyone who has been thinking about it. What really sets Nadia apart is her attention to detail and how gentle she is--her light hands make the whole process basically painless, and she's always checking in to make sure I'm comfortable. On top of that, I've also had Botox with her and it turned out absolutely flawless. Nadia is truly the best at what she does. If you've been thinking about laser or Botox, I say go for it! It's not something you'll regret.

This was the WORST place ever. My daughter was scheduled to have her implants removed and replaced…read moredue to severe scar tissue. We live 2 hours away and our appointment was scheduled for 9:30. On our way there we received a call telling us that appointment was changed to 10:30. When we arrived we were then told that it would be another hour because the doctor had gotten stuck in traffic on his drive over from Malibu. We tried to check in to our motel room but the room wasn't ready. When we went back to Beautologie at 11:30, the young man at the counter said that we could wait in the outer room. Several people we spoke to said that the person they were with had been taken in at 7:00 a.m. Other clients came to the door throughout the day but were not allowed to stay in the outer room where we were due to COVID restrictions and there only being 2 chairs. They were told to wait in their vehicle until called. After repeatedly asking the young man when we were going to be seen, he disappeared for over an hour. My daughter had not eaten anything since 9:00 p.m. the night before and was starving. She FINALLY got taken back around 3:30 for prep and taken in for surgery around 4:30. There were 2 patients that were scheduled after her. I picked her up a little after 6:00 p.m. and we went to our motel. She was in extreme pain and had been sent home with 0.5 mg of Tramadol, which did nothing. My bull-mastiff was prescribed 0.50 mg of Tramadol when she had surgery, so you can see the dosage was inadequate to begin with. We returned the following day because my daughter was in tears, and they gave her an additional medication, Amitriptyline 25 mg, a muscle relaxer/anti-depressant that did NOTHING for the pain. We went to see a local doctor on the 3rd day after surgery because she was in such extreme pain and unable to sleep. He could not believe that the surgeon did not give her a stronger medication to manage her pain so he prescribed Norco which worked. As if this wasn't bad enough, they assured her that they would bill her insurance because she paid cash before her surgery and the patient coordinator assured her that it would all be taken care of. They were extremely helpful until after they received payment in full. Beautologie has been telling my daughter for 3 months now that an insurance claim was filed, however the insurance company hasn't received ANYTHING. Now my daughter is trying to file a claim herself, but the patient coordinator will not respond to my daughters phone calls or text messages for the necessary documentation. The worst part is that her breasts are visibly uneven, and she is extremely self-conscious now. It is obvious that the surgeon was in a hurry and did not take the time to do a good job. Would NEVER recommend this place for ANYTHING!
