I recently had a mastoplexy and abdominalplasy ( vreast lift and tummy tuck) with Dr. Golger. He is amazing. I love my results. I wish I had done this sooner. I highly recommend him. This was worth every penny.

After searching on the internet I contacted Dr. Golger's Whitby office and was greeted on the phone by a very pleasant receptionist. A consultation appointment was scheduled within 5 days and after meeting the doctor, who was so professional and pleasant, he reviewed and agreed to perform my brachioplasty surgery. Surgery date was scheduled the same day. The complete process from start to finish was excellent. I am so pleased with the results of this procedure. I am a 73 year old woman and finally made the decision to have this surgery - my only regret is that I did not have it 10 years ago. If you are looking for a knowledgeable surgeon, I would recommend Dr. Golger with thumbs up! Thank you Dr. Golger and your staff for making me feel so comfortable and making this experience one that I would recommend to anyone.

My experience with this clinic started out with terrible administrative issues, I was referred through my family doctor for a breast reduction due to back pain and never had a follow up from the clinic—when I contacted them to ask why they never followed up they said I had cancelled my appointment even though they never called me. The receptionists were very apologetic and kind throughout the whole process. Dr. Golger himself is probably a great physician, only if you're paying out of pocket. I was referred for back pain and Golger made the entire appointment about the way that I look, making no acknowledgement that I was referred due to back pain. Paraphrased quotes from our appointment include "Well, men get back pain without having breasts" and "If I had breasts as low as yours I would want to change them as well". He is in this for the money and nothing else, which is not a surprise, but is extremely disappointing when you are looking for a solution for your pain and instead get a sales pitch for a procedure that does little to nothing for pain.

I first met Dr. Golger when he did my Carpal Tunnel release surgery in my right hand. Then he did my left hand. I expressed that I wish I could get rid of my budda belly, and he said come in and see me, I can definitely help you with that. Fast forward about 1 year. I went in to see him to see what, if anything we could do with my belly. After 2 HUGE pregnancies, and trying so many different work out's and diet regime's, I just could NOT get rid of the extra fat on my belly. I lived with that shame, and the inconsolable reality that I would never get rid of it...EVER!
My own family doctor said the only way was to go in and have an abdominoplasty. I had reservations, as it is expensive, and I also did not believe that it could be done or that it would work. I did not have any unrealistic expectations. I just wanted the "apron" gone, and somewhat of a flattish belly. I looked like I was 5 months pregnant, and quite often had people ask me when I was due, which is extremely embarrassing as my kids are close to their 30's and I have grandchildren now. I had back pain, I felt like a fat cow, i hated myself and would hated looking in the mirror or buying any clothes. I did not feel sexy AT ALL. I was a diabetic, with high blood pressure, who was overweight despite losing weight and exercising. My belly seemed like a punishment. I felt like Sisyphus. Punished, but instead of rolling a boulder up a hill for eternity where every time he nears the top of the hill, the boulder rolls back down, I always had the tummy and the extra weight..lose 10 pounds, gain 15. Etc..etc..After taking with Dr. Golger and his staff who are ALL amazing and so very helpful and honest! My husband and I decided to do it. I cried the day it was done when I woke up in recovery as I haven't had a flat tummy in over 30 years! I have lost 20 pounds since the surgery and am now COMPLETELY off my diabetic medication. I feel sexy and confident. I am so thankful to Dr. Golger and his team. I have a completely different outlook on my life now thanks to him and his team. I highly recommend him. At the time, both Dr. Golger and I decided to wait on my breasts to see if I liked them after the surgery, as they were not bad, just deflated. 3 months later I decided to go for a Breast Augmentation. Dr. Golger and I discussed in detail which would be the best size. We decided on 295cc as I just wanted back what breastfeeding for a year of each child and menopause took from me. My breasts were a sorry state of affairs, so deflated that a super padded A cup had major gappage..I had the surgery in June. I now feel like I did back in my late teens, early 20's. I am confident. I am strong. I am sexy. I have energy. I have my self confidence and self esteem back.
I would highly recommend Dr. Golger and his team. He is a wonderful, attentive doctor who wants YOU to look your best and to feel your best. He doesn't sugar coat anything, he is honest with you. He won't do what won't look good on you. I can't thank Dr. Golger and his team for what they have done for me and helped me achieve. #GETTHEBOOBS #GETTHETUMMUTUCK!

Dr.Golger is truly phenomenal. He preformed my lift and augmentation and from start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing. I knew within minutes at our consultation that this was the surgeon for me. He was honest, funny and he took his time explaining everything to me. He was patient with all my questions and I never once felt rushed. This man is a brilliant doctor. He has an incredible bedside manner, all his staff were fantastic to deal with and his work really speaks for itself.

My recovery was smooth and fairly painless. He was just as kind and helpful at all my follow up appointments. I LOVE my new post baby bod. He really is an artist and he was worth every penny. I would recommend him to everyone and if (okay, when) I’m in the market for more plastic surgery, I wouldn’t consider another surgeon. Dr. Golger is the best of the best.
