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.

Dr. Ladosci did not tighten my muscles when performing a tummy tuck on me. In his notes he said that he did not tighten the muscles because I had already had a tummy tuck in the past. I HAVE NOT EVER HAD A TUMMY TUCK PRIOR TO THE SURGERY DR. LADOSCI PERFORMED ON ME! As a result I ended up having to pay another surgeon over $9,000 to revise the ENTIRE surgery and also tighten the muscles. I now have scars from hip to hip and from my breasts down to my pubic area. I was advised to ask for my money back, however, his office never even acknowledged my request! So scary! I definitely would NOT recommend Dr. Ladosci to anyone, EVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

He is extremely patient in making sure I was understanding the procedure. He goes out of his way to make sure family members are informed. He gave me the most Beautiful reconstruction on my breast.

Dr. Ladosci and his staff are amazing. Going through breast cancer is a tuff time but I feel as though I just glided through this with the encouragement and support I received from Dr. Ladosci and Allison. Appointments were easy to make even if I just needed a little pick me up, spirits not boobs :), they are always there for me. Not done yet but I see a light at the end of the tunnel and feel amazing about the reconstruction - natural and confident!! Thanks guys for all you do!!! 5 Stars all the way!

Dr. Ladocsi is the doctor I trusted to do what I wanted which was an explant including en bloc and a capsulectomy. He provided attentive and concerned service. His staff is friendly and goes above and beyond. My only complaint was a mix-up between the surgical center and the doctor's office, (where the fault lies is unknown) that got my surgery cancelled. Dr. Ladocsi was out of town at the time, but he personally called me out of concern. That level of personal care is rare these days.

Dr Ladosci was kind, efficient, and encouraging. I was able to get an appointment scheduled for something that was urgent to me within 36 hours of requesting the appt. He did an excellent job and I would refer him to friends and family.

I love Dr. Ladocsi. He is the most caring and kindest Doctor. His bedside manner is awesome. He listens to what you have to say. He gives you the information and explains it to where you can understand it. If you have had outpatient surgery, he will call you at home that night to check on you to make sure you are OK and not having any problems....this shows you what type of Doctor this is...one that is highly recommended!!!!

I would not recommend Dr. Ladocsi to anyone! I was all prepped and ready for my augmentation surgery and he showed up 40 min. late with gel implants instead of saline. He told me that if I did not want to pay the extra $1000 for the gel and continue with the surgery then I would need to pay the $500 booking fee and reschedule. I told him this was simply not acceptable and he then told me that he was already having a bad day and said the surgery is canceled and walked out. Horrible experience.

Because of him I had to have two surgeries back to back. He failed to put a drain when I had my breast reduction, which caused major swelling also discharge me and I had to go right back to the ER a couple hours later to have guess what drains put in. He is careless and will get someone killed

I would not recommend Lewis Ladocsi to anyone! He botched up a simple mole removal on my child's shoulder. Not only does my child have a hideous scar, he also still has pigment from the mole that was not removed. I wanted a plastic surgeon to do the procedure to prevent a major scar. So now he has a very ugly scar and no benefit of having a potential future problem eliminated. What was even more shocking was Ladocsi's attitude about the botched procedure when I expressed my concern.

This man butchered me! I had a bi-lateral mastectomy many years ago with reconstruction. He took skin graphs from my upper inner thighs. He stitched them up but poorly and when I tried to show him the stitches were coming loose two weeks after the operation he said he "I don't want to that". He wouldn't look at my inner thigh where the stitches came loose. Now 8 years later I'm still trying to deal with his negligence. I have gaping scar tissue in my inner thigh and can't even stand wear p
