Samaritan Plastic Surgery Reviews

Erica Monaco

I am pretty shocked by the other review left on Dr. Paley. I had quite the opposite experience. Dr. Paley did a tummy tuck with muscle repair on me 06/25/2019 at Samaritan Medical Center. The office space is clean and welcoming. The staff are probably the kindest staff I have ever encountered in a medical setting. I love going to appointments because I am treated so well by all. I love my new body and feel so confident now.

The goodEverything. The staff are professional and understanding of whatever situation you are in that warrants needing surgery.The parking is plentiful.Doctor Paley is a sweetheart who puts the care of her patients above all else, including her own health and rest. She is a skilled surgeon and she is very competent in explaining what's going to happen and what you can and can't expect. She expects you to follow instructions and she holds you to a high level of responsibility.Assuming you are the kind of person who isn't offensive and trying to tell her how to do her job, you will know on the first visit that you are lucky indeed to have found such a learned and astute physician.The badIt's not doctor Paley's fault, but sometimes their phones act up and don't let calls through. It's Samaritan's phone system.The skinnyShe performed one surgery on me and will be performing any other cosmetic/reconstructive surgeries I will have in the future.

About Dr Deana Paley. Made me return every month for 6 consultation appointment, but never once showed me any sketches nor plans of what she was supposedly working on for me. She never gave me a surgery date and would obfuscate every time I asked. First she said in January. Then February. Was she overbooked or just disorganized? I dont know. She never gave a clear date. Sometimes when I pushed her with the same question 2-3 times, she would google photos on her phone and show me what she was thinking of doing. The photos were never her own work on patients. They were never even photos of people who had reconstructive surgeries! They were just topless torsos of healthy young fitness models from google search! NOT even my bodys size, age, or shape! She didnt listen. Im the person who must live with the results so it was important to me to get what is appropriate on my body. I repeatedly had to retell her that her googled photos were NOT the surgery I was there to get. I had to keep reminding her what chest shape I did not want. I asked 5 times to see examples of her work but she was vague and never produced any evidence of her own work. She gave me a stock photo brochure with two illustrations of very general information on what could possibly be expected. After six pointless 10-minute visits that wasted my entire winter, I found a surgeon in Syracuse to do my chest reconstruction. First meeting he took measurements. And he took photos of my existing chest. He showed me dozens of before and after results of torsos from his real patients who were my size, shape and same surgical procedure. He showed me sketches of his plans a week after my first visit. His sketches were overlays on the photos of my torso. Then he asked me which sketches I preferred for scar placement and shape. He listened. He tweaked the sketches. He asked questions. His nurse make detailed notes. He gave me a written copy of the plan we had collaboratively designed together. Five days later his office scheduled my surgery. I was surprised how simple it all was with a professional who cares.Thats how easy it should be for every survivor and every patient every time. Nobody should waste your time. Nobody should milk your insurance for pointless consultations with no plan. A consultation is ONE visit that lasts 30 minutes. It should include notes. You should leave with a plan, knowing exactly whats going to happen. Nobody should ignore your requests for details. Nobody should dismiss your questions. Nobody should rush you out after 10 minutes but bill you for half hour appointments. No surgeon should treat you the way Dr Paley treated me.
