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. Vu T. Nugyen's office at UPMC plastic surgery is one of the least professional, transphobic, doctors offices I have ever worked with. I've been trying to schedule with him for over a year, they cancelled my surgery the day beforehand through a voicemail, and now refuse to call me back because I'm a trans man using insurance instead of someone paying out of pocket. They have misgendered me everytime I have called. I am disgusted, disappointed, and enraged.

I went in for a consult and Dr. Nguyen was very kind and patient. He answered my questions throughly and made sure I understood what he was saying. He kept asking if I had anymore questions which was very nice and didn’t rush me at all. He was very understanding and accepting. I went in for a top surgery consult and had a little bit of a wait maybe 10 minutes but the appointment went really good.

Dr. Nguyen was so patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time with us explaining the different types of surgery offered for breast cancer and reconstruction.
