By the way, I forgot the part when, at her demand, I had me write her a $1,500 check directly to her before the surgery date - probably to help pay for that vacation she took just prior.

I have had two successful surgeries performed by Dr. Garner. Both of which exceeded my…read moreexpectations. I have also had non-surgical procedures done (Botox) in his office over a few years (sadly I now go somewhere over the hill closer to where I work). Dr. Garner is an honest and intelligent doctor. He is knowledgeable, kind, and capable. His office is clean and staff caring and helpful. Beyond my two surgeries, Dr. Garner has consulted me on a major surgery that I got elsewhere. He was available, confident, and took the time necessary to answer all of my questions. I think that he is a great resource to have if you are considering plastic surgery. I just can't say enough good things about him, and the rest of the office as well.

My postoperative experience after a facelift began with a complaint about my face. Instead of…read moreaddressing it, Dr. Steven Garner focused on my right ring finger and said he could cut it off ..., an alarming statement that made me question his judgment and intentions. Before the procedure, my dominant right hand functioned well. Although my ring finger bent at one joint, I could make a fist by trapping it with my little finger, and I was not seeking hand surgery. Garner never told me, on April 27, 2005, that he intended to perform surgery on my hand. The surgery took place the next day, April 28, 2005 ..., and I was under anesthesia for approximately six hours, during which students were present and participated, something I was never told about or asked to consent to. What followed was, in my experience, far beyond what I understood myself to be consenting to. I was left with serious loss of function in my right hand ..., from better than 50% median nerve function beforehand to what specialists later described as complete loss. In the years afterward, I consulted hand specialists and spent extensive time trying to determine what had been done and why. My concerns are supported by handwritten notes from 2007, in which I disputed the description of my preoperative hand, disputed his claim that he had cut into a preexisting forearm scar, questioned the use of a Hunter rod, questioned what I had consented to, and sought expert opinions and records. Two hand specialists I consulted, Diao and McCarroll, told me it would have been impossible to graft a tendon from my middle finger to my ring finger because the tendon wasn't long enough ...,directly contradicting the explanation I'd been given. A hand surgeon who later examined me said, in his opinion, that Garner appeared to want to get a Hunter rod procedure "under his belt." I cannot know Garner's private motivation and present that only as the surgeon's opinion, not established fact. This experience changed my life. Patients considering significant procedures should obtain a clear written explanation of the proposed treatment, alternatives, who will perform each part, and the precise scope of consent.

I had a brain tumor removed years ago that left part of my face weaker than the other part. By using Botox, Dr. Small is able to relax the strong parts and even out my face so I look symmetrical.

I called and asked a question about a simple facial service I wanted and was told I needed a…read moreconsult. I booked the consult. I drove over 30 minutes one way and had to fill out a ton of paperwork for the 1 simple question I had. I had to wait past my scheduled appointment time. Upon entering the consult room, I was immediately handed 2 brochures (without anyone looking at my skin) and told they really only offer 1 service for the face. The consult was maybe 5 minutes at the most (and that's because I asked questions). It wasn't a true consult. I could have saved a lot of time and unnecessary paperwork (identify theft is real these days) if they could have just answered my question over the phone in 10 seconds. On principle, I won't be receiving services from this place and will look elsewhere.

I paid my consultation fee and showed up to my appointment only to have the doctor walk in and inform me that they don't offer that treatment. So I received no consultation or exam, yet they kept my consultation fee, despite the fact that they knew which treatment I wanted, they don't even do it there, and the doctor spoke to me for all of 2 minutes, if that. I was very clear in advance about the treatment that I was booking an appointment for. Apparently it was just a mixup on their end and those I spoke with weren't aware that the treatment isn't something that Ultraderm does. But they never refunded the consultation fee, which I think is unethical to say the least. I spoke to someone who said that they would follow up, and they never did. The whole experience felt super disorganized and frustrating.

Second time he didn't even talk to me and only went off the notes the nurse took (poorly) based on a couple of questions she asked me. He asserted that the orthopedist I had seen hadn't sent records over, that the orthopedist said I had carpal tunnel (I have 4 diagnoses at that doctor's office), and that I had seen the orthopedist in April of this year (it's been more than a year since I had seen him). When I mentioned I had also had a referral to Stanford (not for surgery), he told me to go to Stanford and didn't listen to anything else I said and kept repeating to go to Stanford.

Had it not popped out on its own who knows how long it could have stayed in there! I went to the office to have it removed. There was no apology or acknowledgement of wrongdoing. Just a casual comment from the surgical nurse that it's not uncommon and happens sometimes. Um, this is negligence. (I can't understand why there is not a simple staples in/staples out count that is standard practice.) I asked the surgical nurse to order an X-ray to make sure there were no other foreign objects left in my body. It felt like a reasonable ask. She asked Dr. Nacamuli and he said no. I told the nurse I wasn't leaving without an X-ray so Dr. Nacamuli came in to speak with me. He said there was no need, that it wasn't necessary, that these were "external staples" (even though my body swallowed it up and it became internal!) He said "you trusted me to do your surgery and as your surgeon you should trust me now and skip the X-ray." He also told me that he came in to calm me down, make things less heated -- I was not exceptionally angry, not yelling or cursing, not shaking, not red in the face. I was just clear that I wanted an X-ray. He continued to be forceful in his opinion that I did not need an X-ray and rather condescending about it. When I continued to insist he walked out of the room like a child who didn't get what he wanted, no goodbye, no I understand your concern, I see your point of view... He has never been warm and fuzzy or had much bedside manner, but I didn't care because that's not why I was seeing him. But this was just rude and unprofessional.
