Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent teacher, he makes things very clear. I found him to be honest and realistic.

Fabulous face lift and various skin treatments
Dr Ha performed multiple procedures on my face, along with a lift. I found him to be very informative and absolutely correct about the various procedures he recommended. The results are excellent and very natural, and his follow up was outstanding. I highly recommend Dr Ha.

Dr Ha had one heck of a job ahead of him when he took on my nose...couldnt breath 9+ broken noses and shattered a few times from sports and boxxing... he got it straight which it hasn't been in 25 years and I can breath even with all the swelling 3 days later.... If nothing else I trust this man's word and recomendation. Will it move as much air as I hope I dont k ow st this point it was pretty smashed up does it work better even while swollen than before surgery...yes. No shortcuts just A+

He was very rough and insensitive. Not a skillful, and experienced doctor to put your beauty in his hands.
