I myself had been researching the best plastic surgeon who specializes in noses for some time. After much research, we were really excited to see Dr. Naderi. His Reston facility is absolutely beautiful. Staff was extremely welcoming.

My daughter's nose is still so new and still has healing and settling to do but wow! Already so cute and everything she wanted. Dr. Naderi listened to her concerns and wants and balanced that with reasonable expectations based upon her anatomy. We are excited to continue to watch the healing process and know it will just keep getting better and better. The battling of DC/northern Va traffic from Baltimore is totaling worth it! Can't wait for my turn!

I started off at over 330 pounds by the time I was 16 years old. I then lost all the weight and got…read moredown to 160 within a year. I came here to see Dr. Kochuba about lose skin on my chest, the process was easy and surgery day came quickly. Surgery day was as easy as it could get with me arriving and within the hour being in the OR. The recovery process had me worried but I found it very easy and was walking around the same day. Recovery lasted about a month with follow up check-ins every month or so. Overall my confidence went from a 3/10 to a 10/10 and I couldn't be more happy with what Dr. Kochuba did for me. It is also worth mentioning the staff their are all amazing.

Dr. Kochuba and the entire team at Austin-Weston exceeded the very high expectations I had going…read moreinto this process. After carrying 8-pound twins and a 9.5-pound baby, I was left with significant abdominal muscle separation. I lost the baby weight, went through several major life changes, and eventually got myself back into good shape, but there came a point when I had to acknowledge that there were things exercise simply wasn't going to fix. I even worked with two different pelvic floor therapists specifically to address the muscle separation before deciding that a surgical consultation was the right next step for me. Once I made that decision, I did A LOT of research on clinics and providers in the area. Austin-Weston was the one I kept coming back to. I sought out Dr. Kochuba specifically because of his background and experience, and his consistently amazing reviews definitely played a part in getting me through the door. Now, being on the other side of surgery, I completely understand why his patients speak so highly of him. From my first consultation, I felt comfortable with him. He listened to what bothered me and what I hoped to accomplish, pointed out things he noticed from his area of expertise, and was very straightforward about what surgery could and couldn't do. He helped manage my expectations in terms of my results, and I never felt like he was trying to sell me on more procedures or convince me to do something I didn't need. Most importantly, I needed relief from some of the secondary issues I was experiencing as a result of the muscle separation, and I wanted to feel like myself again, not like a completely different person. I felt like he understood that from the beginning. Ultimately, I chose to have a tummy tuck with muscle repair and liposuction. The Austin-Weston team was also incredible from beginning to end. My surgical consultant was informative and helpful, the nurses were fantastic, and I always felt like I knew what was happening and who to contact if I needed something. I also opted to have an overnight nurse after surgery and to stay at the facility through my follow-up the next day. If you're debating whether it's worth it, do it. I cannot recommend that option enough. Those first hours after surgery are a lot, and having someone there who knew exactly what was normal, kept me comfortable, helped manage my medications, made sure I actually rested, and gave me peace of mind was worth every penny. My recovery went very smoothly, and I credit a lot of that to how well the team at Austin-Weston prepared me beforehand. The patient and caregiver education made a huge difference. I knew what to expect, what was normal, what to watch for, and how best to manage those first days and weeks of recovery. I never felt like we were going into it blind. I am thrilled with my results, especially now that I am 3 months out and back to my regular work out routine and daily life. My strength has improved tenfold and an unexpected benefit is that my posture has improved greatly. I remember sitting in bed a few days post op remarking I could actually sit up straight. The aesthetic transformation has been a huge bonus, and one I'm incredibly happy with, but feeling like my core is functional and connected again has been just as important to me as what I look like. One thing I would add for anyone considering this: most people looking at me before surgery probably would have said I didn't "need" a tummy tuck. I was at a healthy weight, active, and in good shape. But they also weren't living in my body. They couldn't feel the muscle separation or the secondary issues it was causing, and they can't decide what would make me feel the most comfortable in my skin. There will always be people with opinions about whether you "need" plastic surgery, but ultimately this is such a personal decision. Do your research, understand the risks, have realistic expectations, and then make the decision that's right for you. If I had to make the decision again, I would choose Dr. Kochuba and Austin-Weston without hesitation. I wish everyone could have this kind of experience with their care providers. I went into this having done a ton of research and with very high expectations, and somehow the experience and my results still exceeded them, my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner!

Thankfully, the discoloration - which I've had for decades - was considered to be nothing by Dr. Rostami. However, I didn't appreciate having to wait for an hour for this brief consult.

I was told I owed nothing, but now am being charged for the visit. All in all, not a good experience.

Skin laxity under and over the eyes and some fine lines here and there! Well I'm glad I did. I am 7 days out and I'm here to say it's not as bad as you think after watching all those YouTube videos. Dr Rostami, Alyssa and staff made me very comfortable during the entire process. Local numbing and an oral pain killer and we were ready to rock and roll. The entire process was fast and while I will say there were a few areas that were more uncomfortable than others, but it is tolerable!! I went home and followed all of the (provided) skin care routine and one week out it's looking pretty darn good. I'm not red like you see in those videos and most parts of my treated areas have gone from a sandpaper feel to nice and soft. I can't speak to the results as it is too soon but I can speak to the fear of getting it done. I cannot wait to see the results! And my research tells me the results will just keep getting better over time. I will update.

She listened to my concerns, provided options, and took the time to explain the procedures to ensure my understanding. Her personalized approach is second to none. I have encountered a welcome atmosphere and friendly staff with every office visit. Dr Gottlieb's keen eye for detail, surgical expertise, and patience with my not so straight forward healing process has me feeling whole and more confident than I ever thought possible when initially met with this medical challenge. I can also say, without reservation, that Dr Gottlieb is not only an incredible surgeon, she is an exceptionally good human. Go see her!

I got my breast implants here back in November 2008. Here are a few tips when picking a surgeon and…read morewhy I went with here. 1) Price/payment plans. I was recommended to another doctor at GW however was informed he took no payment plans. Now some might cry "low budget" however keep in mind surgery is upwards to $10K and I don't know about you, but I don't have that chilling in my bank account. Here they do accept payment plans that are contracted through CapitalOne medical and they also accept care credit. Kudos to them for thinking outside of the box. 2) Staff: When you get implants, you have to back a bazzillion times for check ups and 99% of the time you're meeting with the surgeon's nurse staff. The nurse staff here is awesome, kind, compassionate, all of the adjectives that describe what a good nurse should be. 3) Quality: While I do like my implants, I wish they looked more fake. I know, I'm a weird-o. My implants look natural. NO ONE can tell they're fake. If you want the porn star crazy look don't come here because Dr. Freedman will make them look natural. Overall I am happy with my experience here and would recommend Plastic Surgery Associates of Northern Virginia to anyone looking to get a little more on top.

I was you a month ago... thinking, contemplating, mulling it over... Well, STOP thinking about it…read moreand do it!!! I am soooooo happy I finally did! Last year, challenged by a friend, I changed my eating habits and began to lose weight... -100 pounds later and I am looking awesome... but, I was left with bat wings/granny arms. I kept talking about "having my arms done"... Finally I decided it was time - it's almost summer and I longed to be able to wear sleeveless dresses and shirts. I researched top plastic surgeons in my area and made three separate consultation appointments. I was so nervous at my consultation (hind sight 20/20, I had nothing to be nervous about). Dr. Freedman and his nurse Elizabeth are really down-to-earth, professional, and caring people. We talked about what I wanted, Dr. Freedman explained and showed me what my arms would look like, Elizabeth answered all the what-ifs and questions I had. I didn't feel rushed during my consultation. I left that consultation with a spring in my step, feeling uplifted - it was apparent that they knew what they were doing and did it well. After the three consultations with different plastic surgeons, I chose Dr. Freedman - and I am sooooo happy I did! The reason I chose Dr. Freedman over the other plastic surgeons is because he was confident without being arrogant - because he took the time to answer my questions, didn't make me feel like I was stupid, and didn't make me feel rushed or that I was a burden - because he didn't try to up-sell me on things I didn't need - because he genuinely cared about me and my journey - because Elizabeth is knowledgeable, warm, and caring - and because his staff is professional and courteous. Fast forward - I had brachioplasty surgery. It took about four hours from the time I went to the office until the time I was discharged. I am soooo happy with my arms - they are absolutely beautiful! My incisions are healing well and my scars are thin lines. If I had it to do all over again, I would only do one thing different... I would have gone to Dr. Freedman six months ago when I started talking about "having my arms done."

I should have read the reviews first! I had a very similar experience to another 1 star review by…read more"Dot F." Initially I was thinking two stars because the reception desk was so helpful, but reading the description, 1 star fits because my experience was such that I was afraid to let Dr. Gartside do my procedure. I got a strong impression that she didn't like me right from the start. Her comments felted rushed and dismissive. She said she wouldn't consider my procedure medically necessary. I met with a different plastic surgeon the next business day and they said it was absolutely medically necessary! So my suspicion that Dr Gartside was personally against me for some reason may be warranted. Things got more awkward in my consultation visit when I started calling her out on her aggressive comments and word choice. She said "I never schedule a procedure without approval from the insurance". This is after she just told me she would schedule, perform, and submit the claim to my insurance without pre-approval. I asked why she said "never" knowing thats not true? She clarified that she didn't "mean" the word "never" but on some level, conscious or not she was using bold, aggressive words with me, and again I got a strong vibe she didn't like me or want to work with me. On the positive side, the front desk and admin people I dealt with were extremely nice and helpful! Also the availability to get seen by Dr. Gartside seems better than other plastic surgeons around (that could be related to her relatively lower review scores?). I'd say I'd recommend Dr. Gartside only if you are in a time pinch and you know going into it to take her word with a grain of salt. If she doesn't give you what you want, talk to another doctor. I can't speak to the quality of the actual procedures or surgeries since I didn't trust her enough to get that far in the process.
