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.

Unfortunate results
I was unfortunate in that my surgery was unsuccessful. After 2 years there is still scarring from eyelid stitches. The brow lift left one eye significantly wider than the other. Sutures never checked-two had torn leaving visible scars at hairline, which looks like that of a poorly fitted wig. He left a broken hard plastic suture in my eye despite me complaining that there was something in my eye - he claimed he had scratched my retina. He sewed a loose long hair in between my. skin and my scalp and indifferently just tugged it out the next day. Other issues, but these are the most significant. My friend had good results so I went in with confidence but regret my decision. He was derisive when I voiced concerns and while he apologized later for his behavior, nothing can fix my face now. I may have been an anomaly, but it could happen again. I take no pleasure in writing this review, but it is truthful and documented

Exceeded Expectations
After having my children, I lost my baby weight and wanted a tummy tuck. Dr. Bailey and his team provided all the answers I needed to feel comfortable with moving ahead. The procedure went seamlessly and now at 6 months post TT, my results exceed my expectations! I feel so confident and overall so thankful I entrusted Dr. Bailey!

I have wanted breast augmentation for 20 years. When I finally began researching surgeons, Dr. Bailey's name came up multiple times among acquaintances who have had the procedure done. He was highly recommended by all. After consulting with him, I had full confidence in trusting him with the surgery. He is incredibly knowledgeable, straightforward, and professional. He and his staff treated me with the utmost respect and genuine care from the initial consult all the way through my final follow-up. When I say I am happy with the results, it feels like an understatement. I expected that I would finally be satisfied with my breasts; but in reality, for the first time in my life, I LOVE what I see when I look in the mirror. Dr. Bailey is truly an artist! I have recommended him at least a dozen times since my procedure and I will continue to do so! I can't thank you enough, Dr. Bailey!

I am so thankful to Dr. Bailey and his hardworking staff, for the kindness and diligence they have shown me during my Mommy Makeover. I had a breast augmentation, full tummy tuck, and liposuction. His team made me feel comfortable and calm, making sure to answer any question I had. Highly recommend for this area!

EXCEPTIONAL SURGEON AND STAFF!!! The past 15 years I’ve wrestled with the idea of wanting to enhance my look and how I felt in my skin by having a breast lift and augmentation. I’m in my mid 40s, three grown children and well it was time. Living in Texas, yes Texas I heard about Dr. Bailey and his staff in Osage Beach, MO from some friends. I decided to take a road trip and go for it. After meeting with Dr. Bailey, his staff of nurses, and my list of non negotiables, I was sure he was the surgeon for me. Dr. Bailey listened, heard my every request and walked me through it all. I paid and scheduled the surgery that day. A month later I was back in his office. Almost a year later I’m still in awe of the results!!! From start to finish Dr. Bailey and his team have been exceptional. I WILL always consult Dr. Bailey for any future cosmetic upgrade. His bedside manner, compassion, and love for his work is rare and refreshing. Thank you Dr. Bailey and staff for helping me love myself again!!!

BEST DOCTOR EVER!! I went for a second opinion with Dr. Bailey due to a serious shin injury. I was treating with Dr. Shatto at The Wound Center at Lake Regional Hospital but was not improving, so I went to Dr. Brick, a general surgeon who is affiliated with the hospital as well. First question I asked Dr. Brick was, "is this infected"? He looked & said, "NO"! Didn't request a culture and then he begins talking about my displeasure of Dr. Shatto & others at Lake Regional. I was taken back with his lack of interest in my injury. I was really sick & my weight dropped to 102 lbs and I'm 5'6". Dr. Bailey was truly compassionate and took one look at my wound and said it WAS infected. He said I needed to get to an ER to speed up my healing process. He also said I could lose my leg or die. I went back to STL where I went to St. Luke's ER. A culture was done & yes, I did have staph infection. I was given antibiotics and received the proper medical care. Thank you Dr. Bailey!!

I've used Dr. Bailey several times over the past 10 years for various bothersome leg vein problems & have always had wonderful results. His staff is unfailingly pleasant & helpful. Post surgical instructions are clear & easy to follow. The office in Sedalia is clean, well-staffed, and smoothly run. I have sent my husband as well as four friends and neighbors to Dr. Bailey over the years. They have all had good experiences. As with any medical office, there are occasional delays, but usually they are minimal. I believe most people will be well satisfied with the quality of care received at Bailey's Vein Clinics and have no reservations about recommending him & his staff.

Dr. Bailey and his staff are beyond wonderful! After interviewing other doctors for a cosmetic surgery and then discovering Dr. Bailey I knew right away, he was the one. I love my results! The amount of care the whole staff has is incredible and beyond average. I also suffer from a hormone deficiency and within 3 months of taking bioidenticial hormones, I feel amazing again! Not to mention, an infertility specialist I was working with for 2 years couldn’t come to a conclusion. I highly recommend Dr. Bailey and his staff! Once you meet them you’ll know why:)

Dr. Bailey is a lifesaver when it comes to hormone therapy. He literally changed my life. I’ve been doing hormone therapy for months now and it was the best decision we made. Not only is he the best at that, he’s purely the BEST cosmetic surgeon around. I will continue to see Doc Bailey for all my hormonal and cosmetics needs. And I 200 percent recommend him to anyone that is looking for any service he provides. You won’t make any better decision!! Thanks Doc for everything:)

Dr. Bailey and his staff are so amazing. I have begun Bio Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy. I cannot tell you how much better my quality of life is. I was getting an average of 2 hours of sleep per night. Sleep deprivation is very detrimental to you health. After beginning the treatment I had more sleep in one night than I had for more than a week. My energy had increased greatly as has clarity of mind. Everything was meticulously explained until my comfort zone was met. 10 stars!

I came to Dr. Bailey for a breast augmentation and liposuction. I am very satisfied with my results. Dr. Bailey and his staff were very professional and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. After such great results, I returned for lip filler. Once again, I had another wonderful experience. I highly recommend Dr. Bailey and wouldn't go anywhere else.

I would highly recommend Dr Bailey and his staff. I had two procedures in the last two years and Dr Bailey was thorough in answering my questions and in letting me know what to expect from the procedures. He was honest and straight forward and I could not be happier with the results. Finding Dr Bailey was absolutely the best decision for cosmetic surgery. He and his staff are highly respected for their abilities as well as their knowledge and compassion for their patients.
