I am a physician myself, so I’m pretty picky when it comes to finding a surgeon. I can without reservation recommend Dr Lauren Greenberg as an ultimate professional. There are a number of reasons I recommend her. First, she is in solo-practice. This is more important than you might think. While it does mean that you won’t have a full team of receptionists and nurses in a big fancy office, it means that you won’t have to deal with a big team of receptionists and nurses when you really want the doctor herself! When you have a consultation, it will be with the surgeon who will actually do your surgery. When you are recovering, you will have instant access to YOUR doctor for questions and concerns. You will not have a partner or less senior surgeon (or physician assistant) for any part of your experience. Second, she listens to what you want. I don’t mean that she just hears you talking. I mean she tries to understand what it is that that brought you in to a plastic surgeon’s office in the first place – what is it that YOU want done. She is not interested in pushing her aesthetic on you – she’s interested in helping you achieve your own goals. (My impression is that she’d talk you out of a big procedure if that was the right thing to do based on your own goals.) Third, she is up-to-date on all the latest techniques and procedures – from injections, fillers and fat-transfer procedures for cosmetic effects to microfilm PCR for difficult healing. During my intake, she spoke about many of the very latest research results and the recent meetings she’d attended. Fourth, she is kind and warm. She makes me feel instantly safe and comfortable. That’s exactly what you need when making this kind of a decision.
