I had a lower facelift and neck lift with Dr. Matt Goldschmidt on April 29, 2025, and almost a year later I am still dealing with the fallout. After surgery, I developed a seroma and have had severe pain, pressure, and ongoing issues that never should have been brushed off the way they were. I understand no surgery comes with guarantees, but there is a huge difference between a known complication and a doctor who does not meaningfully deal with it when it happens. What has been most disturbing to me is not just the outcome, it's how little accountability there has been. I spent nearly a year trying to handle this privately and reasonably. I asked for help. I asked for resolution. I asked for my records and contract. What did I get? Five photos and a letter basically telling me that he might consider a partial refund only if I removed my review and agreed not to say anything further. That told me everything I needed to know. At that point, it became very clear that Dr. Goldschmidt seemed far more concerned about his reputation and online reviews than about the actual patient sitting in front of him dealing with pain, complications, and a failed result. And yes, I am now looking at revision surgery elsewhere. That is not a small thing. This was not cheap. This was not minor. And this has affected me physically, emotionally, and financially for nearly a full year. Patients deserve to know when a doctor appears more focused on controlling reviews than taking real accountability when something goes wrong. If this is how complications are handled behind the scenes, I think that is deeply concerning, and I do have to wonder how many other patients have been treated this way after the fact. For context, I am including a photo of the written response I received after repeated attempts to resolve this matter. This review reflects my honest experience read more

I had breast augmentation on April 1, 2022, I waited all this time because I thought maybe it would get better, but it didn't. I have nothing to complain about the staff, they are super nice , but I'm not happy with the result. At the consultation I clearly explained to the Doctor that I wanted a bigger implant , higher , and round implant, I also showed several example photos, and I also said that I DID NOT WANT a "natural look" and so the doctor recommended this "gummy bear" implant , he didn't explain to me that it was a "tear drop" look, something that i definitely DIDN'T WANT. After the surgery I noticed that something it wasn't right , didn't look how I wanted, but he insisted saying it was because it was swollen and that after a few months it would get better, guess what? Nothing got better , not even close as I wanted, and another thing, after the surgery I asked if I needed to wear the surgical bra he said no, so I followed the instructions, after a few days when I went back for the appointment he told me it was to keep using it I said but you said you didn't need it, and he then said "oh that's right, don't need it". I spent money, my time for something I'm not happy with, and now I'll have to wait, save more money to find another doctor spend money again and make sure he does exactly what I want. So that's my opinion, I'm not happy So I don't recommend it read more

Had a tummy tuck and some lipo done four years ago. I still have a terrible scar around my bellybutton even though I was told repeatedly this would fade. I even used their ridiculously overpriced scar serum. The garment they gave me to wear after the surgery cut into my thighs and left very deep and painful cuts. My surgery was done on Friday so I called the on call nurse's cell as instructed and she never answered. When I went in for my first check up I told them I was displeased with the lipo in my thighs and knees. I was told this was swelling and it would go down. It never did. My measurements remained exactly the same several months after the surgery. He left a large lump on my stomach and several divots too from the horrible liposuction job. So glad I didn't let him touch my boobs! Would not recommend! read more

I recently had a bilateral brachioplasty (which means I had the skin on my upper arms lifted. aka removed) buy Dr Goldschmidt. I lost over a hundred and fifty pounds many years ago and the skin of my arms was baggy and gross. It''s always been something that I wanted to have done. I'm still recovering from my surgery, so it's too soon to tell about the outcome, but I will tell you the Dr. Goldschmidt and his staff are remarkable. They truly care about their patient's comfort level and well being. His nurse, Mindy, gave me her cell number to use whenever I need. She was quite clear that she didn't care when or why. If I needed her, she was there. Also, she has checked in on me regularly. The doctor called me himself the evening of my surgery just to check on me. In my experience, doctors do NOT call you unless you call the office and beg to speak to them....Not Dr. Goldschmidt. He was very sweet and even had flowers waiting for me after I came to. Very nice touch. NOBODY else bothered btw :( I had an allergic reaction to the adhesive used to cover the incisions and I also caused on of the incisions to separate a bit, my mistake. Mindy told me to just go to the office. No "call and see if he can add you in sometime." No "let me call the doctor and call you back." None of the song and dance that you get from the large hospital systems in the area. I should know, I work for the largest! I would highly recommend Dr Goldschmidt and his office for anyone looking to get cosmetic surgery or any other cosmetic procedure. I'll tell you that they are a little more expensive than others in the area but ask yourself if you want the best or the cheapest??? As with anything in this world, you definitely get what you pay for. I may update this after I am healed, until then I am very impressed. :) read more
