I can't begin to say how thrilled I am with Dr. Rubin and his staff. Almost 3 years after gastric bypass I was ready to look at the "aftermath" of the surgery and weight loss of 145 lbs. I was unsure how to deal with this. But Dr. Rubin and his staff made me feel comfortable and helped me decide what made sense for me. I had a tummy tuck and brachioplasty in January 2012. I am so thrilled with the results. It was not easy, but it was worth it. Less than 2 months out from surgery I am back to normal activity which includes running in races and working out 2-3 days a week. I feel great, and it shows inside and out.
I just bought my first 2 piece swimsuit in 40 yrs to wear to Florida. I can wear things now and not feel so self-conscious. Everyone associated with Dr. Rubin made me feel at ease, told me the truth about what to expect, helped me decide what I wanted, and helped me through the first 2 weeks when it was not easy. I am happy and glad I chose the best!
Dr. Rubin and his fellow Dr. Bossert were incredible the whole way through the process. Dr. Rubin explained the procedure of my hernia repair and palliculectomy very thoroughly. I did have complications and had to have an additional surgery and both surgeries were done by Dr. Rubin. He did a beautiful job. My surgical lines are clean and thin, the post-op care has been top-knotch, and I could not be happier with the results! Dr. Rubin and Dr. Bossert saw me every two weeks post-op and were fantastic the whole way through the healing process! I have a new body, without the pain of a hernia, and I am so grateful for Dr. Rubin and his professional yet personable approach to surgery! He's simply the best!!
I can't say enough bad things. I went in for a consult and waited an hour and 15 mins for the Dr. to come into the room. Some guy, who never announced his title or position, came in and took measurements then left. I sat waiting and waiting and waiting. When Dr. Rubin finally appeared he was short, rude, and never mentioned how late he was. You could tell he just wanted to be done for the day. He never explained anything about the procedure, told me anything that would happen, NOTHING. I waited an hour and 15 mins for him to tell me to quit smoking and nothing about the surgery I was interested in. I wouldn't let this arrogant man near me with a scalpel. BAD BAD BAD experience.

Well, I should've gone with my first impression. He was about an hour late for our appointment and left me sitting in an examing room the whole time. I think they forgot about me, but would never admit it. But I went with him anyways. My belly - it's beautiful I am have most amazing fake belly button your would ever see. The rest - I am very unhappy!
My arms look like two different people did them. I had very little hanging skin and now I have scars and very little hanging skin. I weigh 125 lbs and have floppy, loose skin WITH SCARS!!! One arm has a little bump at the end and I hate it.
I also got a lower body lift - okay, my butt looks amazing (if I do say so myself) but my legs look exactly the same to me- maybe I just don't remember what they looked like before, but I think they could most certainly be better.
Oh yeah, after my surgery, I never saw him again until my six week check-up even though I had to go in several times in between. No visit during my three day stay in the hospital nor his office. I saw residents, fellow, nurses - he never even popped his head in to say hello until six weeks later.

Dr Rubin is truly a body sculptor. I can't believe what my new body looks like. I had my surgery on 8/3/09. Surgery was 12 hours, vertical abdominplasty, tummy tuck(8 lbs), arm lift and thigh lift. Every second was worth it. I did have a bad infection from the drain tubes that tore my inner thighs open, but they healed in time and I am a happy person. Thank you Dr. Rubin and all your staff for everything you have done for my self confidence. I am dating again and feel like a new person.
