Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Cindy Wei is a highly skilled surgeon who I researched, and chose her, to have reconstructive breast surgery. Dr. Wei is an artist who makes you feel comfortable and is straight forward with answering your questions. Her staff is professional and easy to deal with before and after surgery. Dr. Wei is with you post surgery as well and follows your recovery. You can trust Dr. Wei for a successful surgery and excellent care. I am extremely happy with my personal results!

So happy with my results and the care provided!
I had a breast reduction in 2023 from Dr Wei and it was the most positive medical experience I've had! I'm so happy with my results and even more happy with how much care Dr. Wei and her entire team treated me with before, during, and after surgery! I really felt like I was listened to and given the results and care I had hoped for. I highly recommend Dr Wei!

I had DIEP flap breast reconstruction and would highly recommend Dr. Cindy Wei. She is highly skilled and very detailed, but more importantly, she is genuine and caring. From beginning to end, I always felt at ease because she is so down to earth. She made me feel like I’m talking to a friend (with expert skills).

Dr. Wei was a phenomenal surgeon who addressed all of my questions both before and after my breast reduction surgery. She delivered exceptional results while understanding the emotional component that goes along with plastic surgery. The whole Polyclinic Plastics team was welcoming and I always felt like I was their number one priority while I was there. I highly recommend Dr. Wei if you are considering a plastic surgery procedure.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Wei to family and friends! In addition to being an excellent doctor, Dr. Wei also is patient, kind and reassuring. I thought about having breast reduction surgery for years, and I finally put aside my fears and did it. I was supported through this process by Dr. Wei and her kind staff. I had absolutely no complications and was impressed by the immediate follow-up from Dr. Wei to see how I was doing. She listened attentively and, even on the day of my surgery, she reviewed with me what I wanted, to make sure that the result, (which is excellent), was patient-driven. I highly recommend her!

Dr. Wei is a very skilled for her specialty. She met my expectations even though she couldn't promise my complicated desired results due to needing a whole revision of my breast reconstruction. She is very thorough and takes the time to listen. Thank you for making such a complicated time in my life go so well with great end results!

I’m so happy with my results. Dr Wei has amazing skills. She is also kind and compassionate. The team of professionals working with her are all top level professionals. They coordinated the DMX surgery with my breast cancer surgeon. I believe that gave me a much better outcome. They were all so kind and caring throughout the process. I highly recommend the monthly evening meeting if you have any questions.

I am so happy with my surgery results that Dr. Wei performed. From my first consultation, through my final follow up appointment, I felt like she was honest and straightforward about the results I could expect. And I am over the moon happy with my results. With time, as the scar continues to fade, I am so glad I made the decision to have this surgery. After years of being self conscious about my abdomen , Dr. Wei made me feel like a new person!

You are thinking of reconstructive surgery and may be looking for the most skilled and caring surgeon you can find. I have been so pleased with my results and enjoying life again because Dr. Cindy Wei and her team of professionals took such great care of me throughout the process, answered all my questions, and were always tender but effective in their skilled work. The light at the end of the tunnel for me was making decisions about my life after chemo for the double primary cancers that I had. Cindy’s team met my quirky sense of humor with ease as humor is a crutch for me, during the many surgeries and office checkups for the breast reconstruction after a double mastectomy. When I was feeling low and overwhelmed, they picked me up and had me focus on a day at a time. Of course, my hydraulic bed didn’t hurt the recovery process. The results? I feel beautiful. I look fabulous and natural. Doc Cindy is my plastic surgeon hero.

Dr. Wei did incredible work. She worked with me through every step of the process from getting insurance approval to post-surgery life. I couldn't be happier with the work that she did. Attentive, caring, and amazing final product. I am now pain free and am able to live a life that I never thought possible. Highly recommend.

2 1/2 years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 50 years old. Scary times. Yet she always had a warm friendly smile, never rushed thru a visit and made sure we had everything we needed. I can not recall a time I was not seen on time or felt that I could not get an appointment or contact her with a concern. Now that I've completed this long journey of reconstruction and no longer have my weekly/monthly visits with her to say thank you personally, I wanted to share with others incase you are in need of a surgeon. Cindy not only has the skill and ability to restore what you may be feeling as I once did; that I had lost a very important piece of myself forever...however she actually helps you heal in many ways, making you feel and look 'new and improved' along the way. I and my family are forever grateful. ??

This is long overdue, but I wanted to thank Dr. Cindy Wei for her outstanding work as a surgeon. Recently I realized that my breast implants had become calcified & very hardened. My GP had me get a mammogram & ultrasound to confirm the urgent need for removal and/or replacement. After the tests I was referred to Dr. Wei and was immediately comfortable with her & believed her to be extremely competent & knowledgeable. Although the surgery itself took almost five hours, the outcome was beyond my expectations!! The anesthesiologist did an outstanding job & Dr. Wei & her very competent assistant were professional & comforting. Fortunately, there were no complications, just frequent follow-up visits to ensure the healing process was going well. I did get replacement implants & I feel like I now have a new lease on life!! I have never felt better! Consequently, I would highly recommend Dr. Cindy Wei & her staff to perform any required surgery! SHE IS THE BEST!!!

Dr. Wei is the one of the utmost medical doctors to whom I have nothing but great appreciation for. Dr. Wei, saw me for a melanoma located on my foot positioned between my first and second toe. The melanoma cells were removed and a skin graft was done. Dr. Wei took time to fully explain the procedure with all the pro's and Con's, the nursing staff was amazing during the procedure . I believe that Dr. Wei's integrity and wisdom is beyond words.

I love this woman and I love woman doctors; why? they listen to you, and with a plastic surgeon I think that’s incredibly important since you have to put the results you want into their head. She is that rare combination of imagination and skill. She will not stop until you are happy with your results, and I am a very happy liposuction patient, plus she is kind and has a sense of humor which score major points with me. She was recommended to me by another doctor who’s done co-surgery with her.

I highly recommend Dr. Cindy Wei. After my oncologist informed me of the need for a mastectomy, I met with three different surgeons about breast reconstruction. Dr. Wei was the only one who took the time to talk with me about ALL my options. She was kind and supportive and patient throughout the entire process. She was quick to respond whenever I had questions or concerns and always managed to accommodate my unusual schedule. I am so grateful I found Dr. Wei!

After a breast cancer diagnosis, that led to a bilateral mastectomy, Dr Wei was recommended for the reconstruction of my breasts by the surgeon who did the mastectomy. I will never be grateful enough for that recommendation. Dc Wei has been a total delight to work with. She is a great listener and very good at explaining procedures in simple terms and did a fantastic reconstruction work. The silver lining is that I now receive compliments for my breast which was pretty unexpected to start with

I have nothing but praise for Dr. Wei. Her detail to address every facet of what would happen before, throughout, & after my surgery was meticulous. My original surgeon who was going to do my surgery referred me to Dr. Wei because of her knowledge & skill of reconstructive micro-surgery. He felt that she would do a much better job. She is truly a skilled surgeon. I would highly recommend her. She is very personable and puts you at such comfortable ease with your surgery. Pleasant follow-ups too.
