2.9
I had a breast augumentaton there when i was 19 years old. It was a horrible botched augumentation, went back to ask why my scars were in the middle of my breasts and why they were in my arm pits! He did not seem to care to even answer concerns. He had his money i guess.... I have since had them re done, in Denver. This time was a great job! Completely different experience. I would never recommend going to this doctor! My mother had a friend who also went to Dr Carver for a breast reduction, and had horible life threatening results , when her nipples rotted off! So i feel lucky to atleast not have life threating results I guess!! I recommend going to Denver or else where for plastic surgery.
We arrived 15 minutes early to fill out paper work, and we were excited. The staff was not warm or friendly. We were ushered into a cold small plain waiting room and told it would be "a few minutes". After sitting there for 30 minutes without anyone checking on us I (husband) had to go find someone about how much longer it would be. The staff, again was not warm, and even suggested that if we were not happy waiting that we could take out business else where. After about a total 60 minutes and no doctor we were ready to leave... At the moment where my wife was re-dressing and clearly upset, sad and disappointed, Carver walks in and lectures us on how how unpredictable doctor visit timing can be. I think 30 minutes of waiting without ever being checked on is responsible. Specially when its elective surgery. Not sure how they expect people to pay for consults and be treated like they are at the ER. This was a complete waste of our time and will never recommend this doctor to anyone.
I had a bad rhinoplasy done by the other local plastic surgeon. Dr Carver has been wonderful trying to fix what was done. I have been to alot of plastic surgeons because of this and spent over $60,000 I can't tell you what I have been through. Buyer beware.
I was appalled with Dr. Carver, I went in for a consult for breast implant revision and I asked him lots of questions to which he could not answer or didn't care to answer. I felt completely ripped off and very dissappointed. I've been to 4 consults now with different PS's and he was horrible the others were very helpful and informative.
Dr. Carver is not the friendliest but is knowledgeable and does seem to care. I had rhinoplasty over a year ago and he is going to be giving me a revision in a few months. Hope he can fix what I don't like. I would recommend him to anyone wanting to have.
I had a tummy tuck and I love the outcome! He did a great job and I felt like all my questions where answered. Staff was also great every one was so nice. Thank you Dr Carver I feel like a whole new person!
I had very good results and his office staff was wonderful. He is not an outgoing person, but do not minimize his skills or ability.
Needs to improve his bed-side manner. Was not satisfied with the outcome of the treatments.
