Patient Reviews
Oct 22, 2024
I underwent breast reduction surgery with Dr. John Bates, despite reservations regarding his lack of board certification in plastic surgery, which the practice manager minimized. My insurance approved the removal of 350 grams from each breast, aiming to transition from an F cup to a D cup. During TWO consultations, he assured me that I would achieve my desired D cup while preserving some natural fullness, considering my expected weight loss from exercise. I opted to pay extra for axillary fat removal for improved aesthetics; however, the outcome was disappointing, resulting in one breast being a B cup and the other a C cup, along with asymmetrical areolas and a scar characterized by excessive connective tissue and a bulge of axillary fat on one side. My confidence in Dr. Bates has declined, leading me to pursue corrective surgery with a board-certified reconstructive plastic surgeon which will involve extra costs and recovery time.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
