Your trust is our top concern.

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

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. Ritu Chopra - Best West Coast Cosmetic Surgeon
I highly recommend Dr. Chopra for facial and breast cosmetic surgery. I thoroughly researched and met with several surgeons before deciding on Dr. Chopra. He is excellent, cutting edge, and far above in his talent as a cosmetic surgeon. He is impeccably honest, loyal, trustworthy. I can confidently say Dr. Chopra goes far beyond the call of duty and never waivers in his commitment to you. He stands by his word and his word, his cosmetic expertise, and all of his actions are gold, humble, caring. No one who sees Dr. Chopra, could ever be in safer hands than his. I have experienced that his skills and his character far surpass any other cosmetic surgeon you will ever come across. He is an artist and master as a cosmetic surgeon in every sense of the word and one of the most stand up human beings I’ve ever met. I am forever grateful to have met him and be able to walk around with such a fabulous face, thanks to Dr. Chopra!

Amazing outcomes
No less than 6 of my friends have had facelifts by Dr Chopra now and I can’t speak highly enough of him. His Rancho Mirage staff are the absolute sweetest people. They always make me feel at home. I only get tox and fillers at the moment but am scheduled to have my facelift this summer.

Dr. Chopra and his staff (Mandy, Whitney and Elizabeth) were all so patient and kind to me. When I called the for anything, the girls were always patient. Brian (pre-op nurse)and Dr. Reynolds (the anesthesiologist) were all so kind as well. Dr. Chopra did explain what to expect / results after my fat transfer (breast) and Liposuction, so that I wouldn't be surprised or disappointed post-operatively. We discussed the pros and cons of breast implants etc.. Which I finally decided to proceed with a breast transfer instead. I am at only 1 1/2 weeks post-op and recovering well. So far, I am very satisfied with my results. Thank you everyone for being so kind.

To say Dr Chopra and his staff is amazing is an understatement! From the consultation to my follow-up appointments, Dr Chopra was extremely professional and caring. He is an expert and perfectionist! I have never had such a kind doctor who actually listens to his patients. Having been sick from Breast Implant Illness, it was very difficult finding a doctor who cared. Dr Chopra did an absolute beautiful job on my explant and have healed incredibly well. I am extremely grateful for him, his staff and of course his office admin, Amber. She is such a sweet genuine woman and she guided me the entire process. I owe them a huge THANK YOU for helping me gain my health and life back!

Palos Verdes Estates, CA – Jun 22, 2019
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Chopra?
I didn’t expect any part of my breast cancer treatment to actually be enjoyable but Dr Chopra and his whole team made this experience so special for me. The entire staff, especially Danna and Whitney and Mandy who had to deal with me constantly, were always so accommodating and so patient with me during an extremely difficult time. I had to undergo a double mastectomy and Dr Chopra did my reconstruction. Not having much of a choice in any of my treatment, Dr Chopra made sure that I DID get to choose what I wanted for this surgery. We met and discussed all the options for me and my body, and he listened to what I wanted. He cared about my feelings for this procedure and regularly checked on me after the surgery, not only to make sure I was healing ok, but to make sure my spirits were lifting and healing as well. And I can’t even explain how amazing my reconstruction looks. Truly I’m amazed. The feel, the look, the position, everything is perfect. I was so scared by things I’d seen from

I had Dr Chopra perform a breast reduction and lift. He has excellent bedside manner, making you feel comfortable and secure during all of your visits and the procedure. His office staff (I mostly worked with Amber) is very professional, kind and attentive. They get back to your right away and are always available for questions. I am 4 weeks post recovery and so far very happy with the results. I would highly recommend Dr Chopra.

Dr. Chopra performed breast reconstructive surgery and I strongly recommend him as a surgeon of choice. Bedside manner is tops, working to provide assurance for what can be a very difficult time. I was very pleased with the results and look to utilizing his services in other areas. Most importantly, he is always available, 24/7, if there is an issue. There is not a lot of interfaces to go through to reach him if the need arises. Office staff top notch as well.
