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.

Best surgeon and experience ever!
Dr. Atkins has done 4 plastic surgeries on me. I trust this man beyond measure. My last plastic surgery I had a complication (not his fault). I had an opening on my thigh lift. Dr. Atkins saw me every week for three months to treat me, two of those on a Sunday. Dr. Atkins goes above and beyond! If he ever runs late for an appointment it’s because he’s working on someone in surgery or is spending time answering questions with a patient. I can’t blame him for that as I would want him to spend the time with me if needed.

My favorite doctor.
After cancer surgery caused my lower eyelid to droop down because of nerve damage Dr. Atkins did surgery to repair the damage. His staff are very friendly and professional. I have been to Dr. Atkins before as has my wife and he has always been very helpful and is without doubt a gifted surgeon. I couldn't be happier with my results. As I age I seem to acquire more and more doctors but Dr. Atkins is my favorite, I feel like I'm visiting an old friend when I go to see him. He is a five star doctor and I recommend him without reservation.

I've had 3 surgeries with Dr. Atkins. A tummy tuck, skin removal from my arms, and breast reconstruction. I used to weigh almost 500lbs and had lost well over half my weight and I had skin that simply would not go away. Dr. Atkins was very helpful in explaining what needed to be done before surgery and how I would recover. He was especially helpful in making sure that I was safe for travel. I highly recommend Dr. Atkins for experience, professionalism, and great results.

Terrible. He is the most dishonest doctor I’ve ever been to. He lies about his experience, he lies about knowing how to improve the destruction he has caused. He is not board certified in anything. Save yourself, don’t let him touch you.

the worst of the worst. Ladd Atkins has caused lots of irreversible damage. He is good at pretending he knows what he is doing, do not believe a word that comes out of his mouth. Many people regret it.

Rude people managers and employees who lies to keep their job. No, I don’t want to go back here if they paid me. No, No! He allowed his manager to lie on me, and didn’t bother to ask me about the situation and kick me out the pain management treatment because I’m not liked the the office manager. Welll, I have many other health problems, and a good doctor wouldn’t have abandon his patients without providing them with an alternative of care. This practice needs to change, and allow his staff to make these decisions for him.

Dr Ladd Atkins 4110 S 100th Ave Ste 201 TULSA,OK – Dec 04, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Atkins?
He was over one hour late for the first appointment. There are many issues with the conduct of his office. I was explicitly clear about my concerns and was assured he could take care of it. Post surgery was a nightmare I was not prepared for. The biggest was the botch that I have to live with. When I returned and expressed my concerns he agreed there was a mistake. During discussions about fixing it he was rude, antagonistic and he humiliated me. His laid back, nice guy persona disappeared into his arrogance and rage at being questioned. He told me he could do what I wanted but I would look ridiculous and that he knew better than me. He marked all over me with a sharpie as he berated me and attacked my intelligence and dignity.

Was given general rush. Did not investigate or research my problem. Did not follow up. Was unavailanle when EMT's attempted to contact. Has no affiliations w/ Tulsa hospitals that i could discover. No after-care of any kind. Almost died. Ended up in Hospital twice. Papers signed prevent any liability. B forewarned.

after my procedure I had multiple treatments to try to improve the look. After no success Dr. Atkins said that was all he could do and would let me know if something else came up to improve the surgery of which I never heard from him again.. I am very unhappy with my appearance and refused to take photos. I would not let him work on me again. I'm in the process of seeking out a new surgeon.

I went to Dr. Atkins because another Dr. had given me a botched neck lift. He listened to all my questions and answered them completely. I even called back later with more questions and he was quick to answer them as well.
