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.

He almost killed me!
Dr. Teotia specializes in GASLIGHTING! He's a liar and does not listen to his patients because he thinks he knows everything! He couldn't even identify an infection when I told him my expanders were getting an infection. He didn't read the lab report that came back as pus in the cavity and two more visits and complaints about the pain and swelling I was still told I was fine. After two more weeks I was taken to the local ER where I was told I had sepsis and my vitals were dropping rapidly. I almost died due to his EGO and Incompetence. I was in hospital for 10 days and when he finally did surgery to remove infected expanders he had me discharged the next day, regardless as to the fact that I could barely use the toilet on my own! Even worse, he tried to have me labeled a mental case and then dropped me from being a patient with any plastic surgeon at UTSW,

Wonderful!
Dr. Teotia is simply amazing! I am incredibly lucky that I was able to choose him as my plastic surgeon for my breast reconstruction & subsequent phases. I knew going into this process that I wanted to use my own tissue for my reconstruction. I was presented the option for LAP flap due to not having enough tissue for the most common option, the DIEP flap. LAP flaps are very complex & not all microsurgeons can perform them. I am so thankful to have someone as knowledgeable and experienced as Dr. Teotia & his team to be able to do this for me. My results are absolutely incredible! Dr. Teotia is talented beyond words & I can’t help but tear up any time someone asks about my experience with him. He is a true perfectionist with an artistic eye. He always made sure I understood the options presented to me & what to expect. He & staff have always been extremely caring, courteous, & professional. Dr. Teotia has brought my self-confidence to a whole new level & I will forever be grateful.

Great doctor!
I had multiple surgeries with Dr. Teotia. Every visit, every surgery, he always made sure I understood what he would be doing, and that I was in agreement. I started with him right as Covid took over the world. Not being able to meet in person due to all the restrictions, he went above and beyond to make sure I was ok and taken care of. I didn't always see him in the hospital, but I understood going in that UTSW is a teaching hospital. His residents were always availabe to me. My outcome after DIEP reconstruction are incredible. I would recommend him to anyone.

I had a double mastectomy and Dr T did the reconstruction. He has done an amazing job. He has been very informative about what he is doing and has made sure to make my breasts symmetrical.

I had 5 surgeries within 6 months where Dr Teotia was the reconstruction surgeon post-lumpectomy, then bilateral mastectomy. I was always very specific what my expectations post-surgery were. At no time were my expectations- which were based on other glowing reviews & UTSW employees- met in the least way. My fifth surgery left me in such pain, I could barely stand it. I should have never been sent home in that kind of pain. Despite various prescriptions, NOTHING relieved the pain. When I went in for my follow-up, both he & his nurse acted like I was lying about my pain level. While in the hospital for a week, not once did he come to see me. Dr Teotia is very personable, but my surgical results have been devastating.

Dr. Teotia should be working in a meat market or in Dr. Frankenstein's lab. He did not listen to my questions, and did not explain anything to me. He was more concerned with his $3k pen and his ridiculous outfit. He was dismissive and because everyone at UTSW gave him a good reference, I made the mistake of trusting hearsay. I felt that he experimented on me and when he was done I had severely deformed breasts and tummy area. My scars were and still are treacherous and I look unfit to even be the bride of Frankenstein's monster. I would not recommend Dr. Teotia to anyone. He has ruined my life.

I had a double mastectomy due to cancer. He did the reconstruction and turned out badly. My right boob is very low and has saggy skin on it. The left is very scared due to an infection and a wound vac. The left is much bigger than the right. I asked him if he could fix them and he told me no. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone.
