From the reviews

I went to Doctor Rao for a rhinoplasty and I would 100% recommend him to anyone interested in the procedure! My nose turned out absolutely beautiful!! Dr Rao is very careful and very talented, after my surgery I did not have a single bruise on my face. He artistically created the most suitable nose for my face.

★★★★★ — Admin, Oct 2018

Dr. Rao is amazing! He truly cares about his patients and it’s evident in the care he provides. I first saw Dr. Rao in October 2020. I was interested in getting a “Mommy Makeover.” I’ve had two c-sections and nursed both my kids. I was self conscious of my body and wanted change. After meeting with Dr.

★★★★★ — Shawna, Sep 2022

Check in was pleasant and quick. I like the use of an iPad for patient information instead of the clipboard and form. Dr. Rao and staff are personable and very competent, got in on time, questions were answered completely with no "upsell" for cosmetic services. Very professional but warm.

★★★★★ — Laura, Apr 2025

I had a great experience at Dr. Rao‘s office. Upon walking in I noticed the office was very clean and comfortable. The staff was very warm and friendly from checkin all the way through checkout. I was seen at the exact time of my appointment. Dr. Rao was very friendly and extremely professional.

Researching a tummy tuck?

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.

Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
