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.

I would like to think Dr.Blum and his staff For such a great surgery. Everything went very smooth. I was very impressed. If I ever need anything else ever done I will definitely call.

I hate leaving reviews like this, but I feel like there is no other choice, I have reached out to Sweetgrass plastic surgery in different ways and never got a reply back over my concerns, even after messages were “seen”. I received laser Lipo last year in March with Dr. Blum and gave almost a full year to heal and wore the surgical garment the full first 6 weeks and have maintained diet and exercise throughout. I was told my skin would bounce back and I would have a flatter appearance more contoured look without doing a tummy tuck and unfortunately ended up with a hollow lower abdomen With loose sagging skin. I got a second and third opinion from other board certified surgeons in my area and was told I have a contour deformity and that it was unfortunately a failure and I would have to get more surgery done to fix this issue. I spent thousands on this surgery thinking I would get even a little closer to the results I wanted, but ended up with a botched contour.
