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.

Breast Lift, Breast Augmentation, BBL
Dr. Koehler is an incredible surgeon. He performed my breast lift, breast augmentation and Brazilian butt lift (each were months apart). Dr. Koehler listened carefully and explained his professional opinions and explained the procedures in detail during pre-op appointments. All three procedures left me with absolutely amazing results that exceeded my expectations. He is truly a phenomenal artist. His staff members (Layne, Caitlin, Sarah, and Carlie were the ones I saw most often) were very sweet and always helpful. Would come back again if I ever needed anything else done. :)

Bedside mannerism is top tier
I had a procedure at a local hospital by Dr. Koehler and I had an amazing experience. The best thing about it was when they inflated what appeared to be a water float with hot air and put it under my cover to get me nice and warm prior to surgery, I had never heard of this as I work in a hospital. Dr. Koehler and his staff is the greatest!

10 weeks S/P BreastLift/Augmentation/Lipo So thankful for Dr Koehler, Sarah (Nurse), and all his staff's attention and care during a post-op issue I had related to an allergic skin response to the surgical glue. The OhMD communication app was a lifesaver for me and he was willing to see me and talk to me as much as I needed, even when I questioned the process. Plastic surgery was way out of my comfort zone and I'm so thankful I chose him to guide me. Good surgeons with good bedside manner are hard to come by and I will surely recommend him time and time again!

My consult experience with Dr. Koehler and his support team was exceptional. I was warmly greeted as soon as I walked in, and I immediately felt at ease. When I was taken back for my consult and asked a series of questions prior to meeting with Dr. Koehler, not once did I feel uncomfortable or silly for voicing my concerns and surgery interest. In fact his support staff made me feel pretty good about myself! When I finally met with Dr. Koehler I felt there was a genuine interest in what I had to say about my concerns. I never felt rushed, and I appreciated the honest feedback I received. I walked away from the consult confident with the decisions we had made and trusted that I was placing my care in good hands. I booked surgery that same day.
