From the reviews

I flew from North Carolina to have Dr. Teitelbaum as my cosmetic surgeon. Initially, I was impressed with his reviews, website/surgical outcomes, and friendliness during the surgical consultation.

The absolute best!! Dr. T always made me feel so safe and comfortable and respected. My breast reduction is beautiful and exactly what I wanted. I’m so glad I decided to do this surgery with this surgeon! Recovery was closely monitored by Dr.

Dr. T did an amazing job!! Not only did he make the whole process seamless, smooth and easy, but he make me feel very comfortable the whole time. Unlike so many other doctors, he really took his time when he met with me. I never felt rushed or like he didn’t care about my concerns.

Dr. Teitelbaum changed my life. From start to finish, he was kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. My breast augmentation turned out even better than I imagined—natural, balanced, and beautiful. I finally feel confident and at home in my body. His team was amazing too.

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.
