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.

Patient from years ago
Still think of my experience often trying on clothes, looking in the mirror and thinking about other possible necessary surgeries. Good after procedure care.

Amazing and Uplifting Experience
Dr. Saunders was my reconstruction surgeon after a bilateral mastectomy. I felt completely comfortable with him from our first appointment. He was patient, understanding and made me feel optimistic.(It's easy to feel hopeless after a cancer diagnosis) He took his time throughout the reconstruction process (there were a few surgeries) and did what was best for my safety, health and overall outcome.After a mastectomy, you will never look like you did before the cancer. But, he did such a good job that no one would ever know I have been reconstructed. I can wear strapless and low-cut dresses with confidence. His team was wonderful. From the front desk, to the nurses and accounting. I am very grateful and have recommended Dr. Saunders to other breast cancer survivors.

I had the best experience
I had the best experience with Dr Jonathan Saunders and his staff. My surgery went great and my recovery was pretty easy. Dr Saunders was just a text away with any questions I had in recovery. Best choice I ever made! I love my results!

I had a Fleur-de-lis panniculectomy with Dr. Saunders and have never been happier. His work is amazing. The scheduling with the staff was awesome. My insurance was approved and I was scheduled within 2 weeks for my surgery only 10 days later. Their office hours are flexible and they are willing to work with my work schedule to get me into the office to be seen. I can communicate to the staff via e-mail and couldn't have asked for a better plastic surgery experience.

He did my breast reconstruction and I look amazing. After a bilateral mastectomy I thought I'd never feel complete. He did an awesome job. He kept me and my husband informed of each step and I would definitely refer him to anyone. He was very professional and his staff amazing as well

Is NOT skilled in sculpting anything. Poor communication. After initial consult, he hears NOTHING. Even when you have concerns. Dr. & his own staff on two diffferent pages. but you will not realize this until AFTER surgery. He is extremely limited in ability. Although his staff is nice, I would think really hard how much you value your body before he does surgery. Maybe a surgeon, but def not a cosmetic surgeon.
