List of Joel Epperson Md's Reviews
Dr. Epperson is a fantastic surgeon with excellent bedside manner and the best of communication skills. Top notch all the way! Five stars! Highly recommend to all!
My granddaughter was bitten in the he face by a dog and Dr. Epperson was 2 hours away on vacation with family when he answered the call from the Hospital. Dr. Epperson made the drive in to do the facial repair, keeping my granddaughter from having to travel to another facility. He deserves a major pat on the back. Definitely 5 plus star rating. Thank you Dr. Epperson.
I had a reduction and had problems with my right side.it kept having dead sells he fixed them now I have a bigger ugly scare but that's ok scares don't bother me but that's not my problem the problem is and he knows about it. The problem is my right side is much bigger than then right.my mammograms proves it. He said "everyone has one bigger" I asked for b cup I have a big c cup.and right side a big d cup. That's not what he got paid to do. I wanted a b cup on both sides same size I want it fixed at his expense because he already got paid for it to be done right.He was friendly and his staff was friendly even when I had to go let him fix the right breast twice he was still friendly. My problem is the the sizing.I still would recommend him but I want him to fix the problem
Dr Epperson and staff provided excellent service!!
Dr Epperson performed a breast reduction and "reverse tummy tuck" on me in 2009 when he was in Memphis. I looked grotesque afterwards, like two fried eggs on my chest and skin "pooches" everywhere, but he assured me he would make it right but that we had to take time and wait for some healing before more could be done. I trusted him. I went for a few follow ups where he had to drain areas all over my chest and stomach. (I have since learned that is not normal) Then 3-4 months later after surgery when I called to set up the very important "next step" appointment, I was told that he had left town and referred me to another doctor in another practice that would "take care of me". HE NEVER CALLED OR TRIED CONTACTING ME IN ANY WAY! No one would tell me where he went. After one attempt at corrective surgery by this new doctor that Epperson sent me to, where he had to use artificial skin inside my breast so that he could insert implants (and corrective tummy tuck), I thought ok, this might turn out alright, but when I called for my next appointment, he had closed down his office and later died. I went into depression and vowed never to go to another plastic surgeon and to just live with my still deformed chest. However, recently I have been forced to do something because the implants are "sliding" out of my breast cavity, because Dr. Epperson's surgery removed the "fold" or shelf and the artificial skin placed there is no longer working. Of course, at my own expense Dr. Epperson, will you read this review, and maybe now do the right thing?! Pamela Cooper
Dr. Epperson went above and beyond with my surgery. He called the evening I was discharged to check on me and make sure there were no problems and to answer any questions I had. Dr. Epperson was very personable and had great bed side manners at all follow up appointments. Waiting time was minimal. Results of surgery exceeded my expectations. Dr. Epperson and his office staff were very helpful and awesome to work with! I would most definitely recommend others to use Dr. Epperson.
The abdominoplasty he performed on me September 4, 2018 was superb. I'm beyond pleased with it. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was up and walking in one day. I was driving by the third day. Thank you to Dr. Epperson, staff, and Arkansas Methodist Medical Center.
Dr Epperson is very professional and courteous. I am thrilled after having a complete lift. He has spent several hours perfecting his work with extraordinary results. The rest of the office staff is just as amazing as their leader. I would highly recommend him
Great staff!!! I was super nervous and everyone made me feel comfortable while being professional!!
The diagnosis of breast cancer is devastating. I had to have a radical mastectomy on my right side in 2014. Dr. Epperson performed my reconstruction and left me with nothing resembling a breast. I wanted to sue him to have him pay for another reconstruction but the only other plastic surgeon in this area wouldn't sign a paper saying the work was unsatisfactory, although he admitted he would have done it differently. DO NOT EVER go to this man for your plastic surgery.
