Samir S. Rao's Online Review Report Card

I am so grateful for Dr.Rao! With my recent weight loss of 85Lbs and the breast lift Dr.Rao preformed on me Im the happiest I've ever been with my body in my whole adult life! He is literally an artist! I had an eating disorder when I was younger and still suffer from body dismorphia. Now, with my new body, I look in the mirror and actually love what I see! I was so overwhelmed with happiness I started crying! If you are looking to have some work done, look no further! He is the best plastic surgeon ever and everyone at The Center for Plastic Surgery is helpful, welcoming, and professional! They almost go out of there way to make sure you are comfortable! I'd give him 100 stars if I could but 5 will have to do! 😁

Completely dismissed my concerns and left the room.

I was referred to Dr. Rao after being diagnosed with Breast Cancer. He handled my situation with the utmost compassion, care and professionalism. They took time for my questions, walked me through options and supported me wonderfully during my process. And my results are beyond anything I imagined!! Dr. Rao and his team are simply the best!

Terrible reconstructive surgery experience. I was experiencing complications and was treated as if I was an annoying hypochondriac and that my concerns weren’t legitimate. This surgeon is arrogant, doesn’t always listen and isn’t kind or caring once you experience complications, because then you’re a problem. The concerns I brought up were for bleeds and infections, which I was correct and this resulted in additional surgeries. I experienced pain over several months and was never properly treated. I was out of work for almost 7 months over a 14 month period, lost thousands in salary and the additional surgeries, all sick leave and vacation. I was unable to care for my child and experienced significant chronic pain. I tried to go to other reconstructive surgeons when things were going bad but none would touch me mid multistep surgery under another surgeon. I had to find a pain specialist and another reconstructive surgeon to attempt to fix what happened and help alleviate the chronic pain. As a result of this experience, I have ended up with a flat closure and the reconstruction having to be undone, I have no chest, just a bunch of scars. This was the most upsetting experience of my life.

From the very first meeting , I knew he would be the dr for me. His kindness and professionalism was impeccable, but his results after the surgery is nothing short of amazing! He is a true artist. He was very truthful about what to do and what not to do. He even took the time to see my son who is stationed in another county and was home for a short visit about potentially repairing something for him. The whole staff is amazing. He gives you a booklet for a game plan. The results of my NEW body is a game changer. I turned 50 recently and look better now that I did at 30. Absolutely the best physician!! 💕

Dr. Rao is very knowledgeable and did a great job in fixing my implants. He took time to talk about all the options and helped me to choose the right one.

This is not a review of the doctor but of his front desk staff. I called trying to make an appointment for a consultation and two different women who answered kept interrupting when I was trying to ask about possible times and dates, talking over me, and then one shouted at me for trying to finish my question. I've made many medical appointments in my life and have never encountered anything like this unprofessionalism and rudeness. I'll make my appointment elsewhere.

There are three amazing things about Dr. Rao. One is that he listens intently, is compassionate and works hard to give you the results you want. Two is that he must have been a seamstress in his former life. The man can sew! I had a breast reduction and augmentation and a tummy tuck. My scars are gorgeous. Lastly and most importantly, Dr. Rao is an artist. What talent! I have the most gorgeous boobs in all of the world and the flattest tummy and narrow waist. Dr. Rao and I are going to be seeing a lot of each other as I grow older! Never will you feel more heard, confident, safe and gorgeous than when you are in the very talented hands of Dr. Rao.

Dr. Rao and team are absolutely incredible! I consulted with several surgeons before choosing Dr. Rao and I am so thankful I did. He removed my implants, did a lift and fat transfer and a mini tummy tuck. He fixed my DR from my two pregnancies and immediately fixed years of back pain. He has given me back my pre-mom body and after over a year after the surgery I’m still in awe with the incredible work that Dr. Rao and team has done. The team was wonderful and made me feel so comfortable. The operating room was private and welcoming. They were incredible to work with and I HIGHLY recommended them!
