    Had lipo on my arms! Amazing work done by Dr. Walker. Can't thank him enough!
    Coral H.

    Dr. John Walker is masterful. I was hesitant about doing any type of surgery until I met Dr. Walker. Not only is he an artist and perfectionist, but he's also very kind and delightful to talk to. He makes you feel like an important patient. There was never a moment that I didn't trust him. I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair, DRAINLESS, bbl, lipo on my flanks, waist, back, and arms. I'm beyond grateful for the wonderful and amazing recovery I been having. I can't stress enough how amazing Dr. Walker has been in my transformation. From the moment you are at surgery he makes you feel at ease with his confidence, warmth and thoroughness. As a mommy of two small toddlers I would highly recommend Dr. Walker. The recovery was fast and painless. I was walking straight hours after surgery, I stopped taking pain medications on my 4th day, started driving on my 5th day, back to my normal activities at my second week. I had a speedy recovery with minimal bruising all due to Dr. Walker's magical and delicate hands. Dr. Walker personally takes care of you. He called me hours after my surgery, to check on me. He saw me the next day after my surgery and personally text me throughout the week in case I had any questions. When you would go see him, he greets you by your name and gives you a comforting hug. If there's anything else he can do to make you look better, he goes out of his way to do it. All his staff, Janine and Alex have been amazing and tremendously helpful. I have always been able to text Janine for any questions and she has been prompt on answering and alleviating my concerns and scheduling any immediate appointments necessary.

    Horrible breast Experience

    Thanks to Dr. Walkee...49 years old ...mother of 2 young kids

    I went to Dr. Walker for a BBL, he recommended including the BBL, I also have a full tummy tuck and some fat trasfer to the face. I was a bit surprised because, I didn't think about the face at all and I didn't think I really needed a tummy tuck but, thank God I did and thank God for Dr. Walker!!!! He is professional, caring, honest, direct and passionate about his work. I went for a second opinion in Marina del Rey, where the Dr. was more conservative and more money. He only was going to do a small tummy tuck and a little fat transfer to the buttoks. If I was going to do it, I wanted it to be worth it, so, I decided to have the surgery by Dr. Walker. I love his work, his ideas and expresses what is best for each individual. THANK YOU DR. WALKER!!! Btw I am 49 year old mother of 2 young kids

    One of the worse surgeons that I've came across with. Had one of the worse experience along with my…read morewife. We went in because for my wife wanted to get a mini tummy tuck with fat transfer to her buttocks. We were told by Dr. Kovacs that she would have a great looking butt and that she would have the butt that she wanted. Because my wife wanted to have a huge butt. So after surgery we were told by the doctor that within 2 months her buttocks would look amazing and they would be big and round. In every checkup, Dr. Kovacs kept telling my wife to eat more healthy than what she used to before. While my wife kept a strict diet, she was losing weight. When we went to another checkup, after a month after surgery Dr. Kovacs told my wife that she looked amazing from her waist and her stomach. We were so happy about that, we then asked Dr. Kovacs that why weren't my wife's buttocks looking big like we initially asked for them to be after surgery. Dr. Kovac's response was "your wife lost a lot of weight and therefore the fat that was transferred to her buttocks has gone away (disappeared). Now if you want your buttocks to be as big as you're saying, then you have to get another surgery because we have to remove more fat and then transfer it to your buttocks." But yet again, my wife's buttocks never grew. As a matter of fact, she now has less buttocks than what she had before the surgery. Because the fat that was "transferred to her buttocks" was never actually transferred to her buttocks. Dr. Kovacs inserted the fat above my wife's buttocks, because Dr. Kovacs said that the fat that was inserted above her buttocks would go down automatically within time. I was so angry specially after seeing how much my wife suffered with the recovery and how much money we would have to pay for a shitty job that was done. That's exactly what I told Dr. Kovacs. He told me that I was not going to say that in his office. I told responded, Doctor look at the job you did. Do you really think this is a great job? He responded saying yes, he thought my wife looked amazing. I told him, look at your assistant. She had the same job as my wife did and her buttocks looks exactly how my wife wanted hers to look. My wife's buttocks doesn't even look close to your assistant's. He said, if you don't like my job you can go to another doctor or you can pay for another surgery with me to make your wife's buttocks bigger; now get out of my office. Not even his personnel get any procedure done with him. They rather go to another surgeon to get any type of job done because they know how many patients are unsatisfied with his work. Dr. Kovacs left my wife's left side of the waist bigger than her right side, and he said that he did a great job and that had nothing to do with him because to his eyes, everything in my wife looked perfect. Before you get any procedure done, please stay away from this shitty ass doctor if you don't want to go through a very bad experience like we did!!! My wife got her surgery done on November 3rd, 2021. So this is very recent.

During my appointment, I asked multiple times for the exact number of units being administered and clearly stated limits for each area. I was never given an accurate final unit count before injections, despite asking. After the procedure, I learned that 150 units were used. This was not disclosed beforehand and was significantly higher than my previous treatments at this practice. I am also still experiencing jaw clenching, which was the primary reason for treatment. For my lip flip, my concern was my upper lip folding in. I'm still confused why units were injected into my bottom lip. I have since requested an itemized breakdown by injection site for my personal records. When pricing is unit-based, patients should be informed of exact quantities before treatment, not with a dollar amount. I hope this helps others know what questions to ask and advocate for full transparency. Please consider that this aligns with the other 1-star reviews. There seems to be a pattern of: Treatments exceeding what was explicitly consented to Unit counts disclosed only after procedures Unit-based charges without upfront unit confirmation Dismissive responses when patients asked for clarification In light of these recurring issues, it's worth noting that as of 2/6/26, Google reviews for this business are turned off.

    Years ago I went to a plastic surgeon for liposuction on the upper part of my legs. My plastic…read moresurgeon asked me if I was OK with another doctor observing my procedure and I agreed to that. The surgeon who was observing was Todd Gerlach. I happened to wake up from the anesthesia toward the end of the procedure and I remember hearing my doctor telling Todd Gerlach to stop the liposuction because I was crying out in pain. So it's obvious that Todd Gerlach was the one doing my procedure, at least in part. Todd Gerlach, my own doctor and his surgical nursing staff who were in the operating room were all highly unethical, figuring I'd never know that Dr Gerlach was using me as a guinea pig to gain experience in liposuction procedures. All these years later, one of my legs looks OK and the other looks crepey, like they took too much fat out. It was a botched procedure and even though I went back to my doctor a few times to try and correct the issue, I am still self-conscious of how loose the skin looks on that one leg. I mostly hold my doctor accountable for not being honest with me, but Todd Gerlach also had to have known I wouldn't have agreed to let someone I never even saw before operate on me. There should at least have been a consent form if his involvement had been known to me. Shortly afterwards I found out that my doctor was retiring and Todd Gerlach was the one who bought my doctor's practice.
