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.

I am a 70 yo trial lawyer and Dr. Ballenas is my “go to” aesthetics medical professional. My treatment goals are to look like a healthy, vigorous man for my age. Dr. Ballenas has been providing treatment for me for years, and he has helped me to achieve all of my goals and more. He has consistently demonstrated superior skills, knowledge and up to date use of current techniques and applications. In addition, he is patient, compassionate blended with a great sense of humor. I have referred family, friends, and business associates to Dr. Ballenas. I recommend him without hesitation and I would be pleased to speak to anyone who would like my patient feedback.

Sadly, Dr. Edgar Ballenas is going to be working with Suite 6. I’ve tried to do it myself with Suite 6 but the owner is so difficult I caution anyone to have a service by her staff. So far to date I have had three services that when I said something, the owner, Gabriella so-and-so blamed me for. It is an comfortable place and I’ve always felt like they are stealing my money. Apparently they have a couple of Doctors working At the new location in Seaport. They are an overpriced joke.

He oversees "SculptMe" on Newbury St in Boston. His name is on the door. I spent thousands on CoolSculpting there with no results. Both weight & waistline are the same with their photos for proof. There was never a medical doctor on site in the 5 visits I made. Only after my experience did I look him up and realize he has terrible reviews and he is online for drug addiction therapies, cosmetic therapies, emergency medicine, you name it. Watch out.

Saw this Doc at at Jordan a few years ago. Recently sent my wife to Laser MD cause I recognized his name online. Bad move. She had some issues with a laser burn and he was less than interested in helping.
