Dr. Barnavon's Interview
Dr. Reisler's Interview
Yoav Barnavon, MD, F.A.C.S. Reviews
“Almost as if I didn’t have a mastectomy.”
I can’t say enough about Dr. Barnavon. I recently underwent a mastectomy and I was referred to three plastic surgeons. Dr. Barnavon was the last one I saw and I knew right away he was the one. He is an OCD perfectionist surgeon, which I am myself within my professional life.
He spoke my language. The results were so much more than I had expected, almost as if I didn’t have a mastectomy. I can’t thank him enough and I can’t recommend him enough. He is simply the best around!

“He is not just a great surgeon, he is also a masterful artist.”
After experiencing three capsular contractures in the same breast (post mastectomy) I switched surgeon, and found Dr Yoav Barnavon. From the very first time my husband and I met him, we were impressed with his openhearted and reassuring tone.
He took the time to listen to our concerns. He gave us several choices on which surgery we may proceed with, including the “muscle sparing latissimus flap.” In 2018 I had had a latissimus flap for the breast affected by cancer; the surgery was successful and I never developed capsular contracture on that side. We decided to proceed with the less invasive MSLF. The morning of surgery, Dr Barnavon retrieved his ‘palette’ of markers and prepared me for surgery, as he drew with fine point markers of diverse colors the painstaking details of his impending cuts.
He is not just a great surgeon, he is also a masterful artist. My scar is now barely visible. I’m absolutely delighted, and recommend Dr. Barnavon to everyone.

“My Doctor Picasso!”
Let first start off by saying I was never in the market to have reconstruction surgery. But when faced with having a mastectomy you want to know what options are available.
I went to see 2 different plastic surgeons and almost gave up hope on ever having a normal body again. I am eternally grateful to my breast surgeon Dr. Health Wright who referred me to Dr. Barnavon’s office.
The office staff were friendly but smart I never had to repeat any information once told they got it! Now that’s a real concept hire people that actually know what they are doing. Each staff member has a specific task so you are not ever given half information or told I don’t know.
Dr. Barnavon explain the traditional options and was comfortable with an immediate implant which was something no other surgeon was even willing to consider. He also had an option that would use my own fat tissue with minimal invasion. I felt he was not only skilled but artfully talented. I have now nicknamed him my Dr. Picasso. He give me hope and desire to move forward with my mastectomy knowing my Picasso would be stepping in to save the day making me whole and beautiful again.

“Dr. Barnavon came up with unique solutions that no other plastic surgery centers had.”
I have been completely satisfied with Dr. Barnavon and his staff. I had a previous experience with a plastic surgery office and was very unsatisfied. Dr. Barnavon came up with unique solutions that no other plastic surgery centers had. Not only were they unique but also very effective. I am happier with my results than I ever imagined. I am a year and half post op and I am still very happy.
Dr. Barnavon is extremely professional and his bed side manner is excellent. I did my homework and had consults with 15 surgeons before deciding on Dr. Barnavon.

Tom Reisler, MD, MBChB, BSc (Hons), MRCS (Ed) Reviews
“he made me feel very special, safe and at ease”
Dr Reisler, is an amazing plastic surgeon. I recently had to have a double mastectomy done and I wanted to have reconstructive surgery also. Dr. Reisler, came highly recommended by my breast surgeon, Dr. Jason Hechtman. From my very first visit with him for consultation and throughout my entire care, he made me feel very special, safe and at ease. In the beginning I was very nervous and afraid of what I was facing, but he assured me that I was in good hands and that he would take good care of me and he did.
Dr. Reisler, is absolutely fabulous, one of the most patient oriented doctors I have ever met. He’s not only professional but also very personable.
He’s extremely knowledgeable, and was very kind and compassionate with me throughout my entire time that I was in his care and during both my surgeries with him. I cannot express enough how much I love and admire Dr. Reisler.
My experience with him was very positive, I always looked forward to seeing him. He takes as much time as necessary to insure a patient’s understanding and comfort. He listens and answers all questions that are asked.
Again, I cannot praise him enough, and I will surely recommend him to my family, friends and anyone that I know who will be needing plastic surgery!

“Don’t hesitate to utilize his services, you’ll be glad you did.”
Perhaps I am getting cynical in my old age but it’s increasingly rare to find people who are truly professional, competent and compassionate in their jobs. Dr.Reisler is such a person. I had a melanoma on my face which needed prompt removal and some rather complex restoration. Dr. Reisler scheduled the appointment promptly, explained everything in detail, and did an excellent job.
Upon completing the surgery, he took the time to sit with my wife, show her pictures, and explain all that he did and why. He likewise stayed in the hospital, until I was out of recovery to check on me to make sure all was well. And it was. The results are excellent. His bedside manner is excellent. His office staff is excellent. Don’t hesitate to utilize his services. You’ll be glad you did.

“I couldn’t be happier with my Tummy Tuck.”
I called the clinic to have a mommy make over. During my consultation with Dr Reisler he advised against it. Suggesting to do just the abdominalplasty. I was so disappointed. But he took the time to explain the reason. My high risk factors were, my age 68, my BMI and I had a lot of fat and skin to be removed from just my abdominal area. After talking with him I agreed.
He did a phenomenal job. I couldn’t be happier with my tummy tuck. I did have a setback for a few weeks after surgery which was not anything he did. But when he found out, he called me to see how I was doing.
The calls and emails continued for weeks. I would email him with questions or concerns and he always answered me the same day or by the next morning. He cares very much about his patients. I am so happy with my new look. I feel healthy and sexy.
Yes even at 68 I feel sexy now. Dr Reisler is fantastic at what he does and I’d recommend him to anyone.

“Dr. Reisler’s professionalism and compassionate nature put me at ease.”
I recently had the pleasure of being a patient of Dr. Tom Reisler. He is a highly skilled plastic surgeon who performed surgery on my nose following Mohs surgery. From the very first consultation, Dr. Reisler’s professionalism and compassionate nature put me at ease.
Dr. Reisler took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, addressing all my concerns with patience and clarity. His attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident throughout the entire process. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the results were beyond what I had hoped for.
The post-operative care and follow-up provided by Dr. Reisler and his team were exceptional. I felt genuinely cared for and supported during my recovery, which made the entire experience much more manageable.
I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Tom Reisler to anyone in need of a plastic surgeon. His exceptional skills, coupled with his warm and understanding demeanor, make him a stand-out professional in his field. I am confident that others will find the same level of satisfaction and positive outcomes as I did.
Thank you, Dr. Reisler, for providing such outstanding care!

“He made me feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire process from beginning to end.”
If you are looking for the most experienced, knowledgeable, And caring doctor to give you the absolute best results. There’s no need to look any further. Dr. Reisler did my breast reduction and lift and I could not be any happier with my results. I am about 6 and a half weeks out and my breasts look absolutely stunning already.
I spent a lot of time searching for the right surgeon and I am quite certain that he is the best. He made me feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire process from beginning to end. Even though I was in surgery for quite a bit of time, once I woke up, I didn’t feel nauseous at all, or have any issues.
The nurses mentioned that it is rare to see this when people are under anesthesia for that long and that I have my doctor to thank. He truly does care so much for his patients. I recommend him to every single person I know and will continue to as long as he is practicing.
