I am a transgender man from Asia, and my English is not very good. I have always communicated with Dr. Jacob via email, and during our in-person meetings, they arranged an interpreter for me in advance. The service was excellent and very thoughtful. Dr. Elliot Jacobs is highly professional and extremely patient with me. He always takes the time to carefully answer all my questions. I am very grateful that I chose Dr. Elliot Jacobs for my top surgery. There were no stitches to remove after the procedure, my recovery was quick, and there were hardly any scars. The results look natural. I give Dr. Jacobs and his team an absolute five-star rating. If you’re still hesitating, don’t! Choosing them is definitely the right decision.

After nearly 15 years of dedication to the gym and working on my physique, I decided to take the next step and address my gynecomastia. I did extensive research, consulted bodybuilding forums, and sought out professionals who understand the importance of aesthetics—every path led me to Dr. Elliot Jacobs. From the very first consultation, it was clear I was in the hands of a true master of his craft. His transparency and honesty stood out—he's seen it all throughout his extensive career and doesn’t promise unrealistic outcomes. Instead, he sets realistic expectations, delivers exceptional results, and has an unmatched eye for detail. Now, three months post-op, I can confidently say that my results are phenomenal. My chest is sculpted, natural, and much rounder without any extra tissue. I honestly did not know it would make this much of a difference. The transformation has exceeded my expectations in every way. Dr. Jacobs' precision and expertise in handling gynecomastia is second to none.

I cannot recommend Dr. Elliott Jacobs highly enough. I underwent gynecomastia surgery with him on August 2, 2024, after suffering from this condition since puberty at the age of 14. For 20 years, I dealt with the physical and emotional burden of gynecomastia before finally making the decision to change my life at 34 years old. When I went for a consultation in June 2024, I was immediately impressed by Dr. Jacobs’ expertise. He has dedicated his entire career to gynecomastia surgery, and as soon as I met him, I knew I was in the right hands. Committing to surgery can feel overwhelming, especially with a severe case like mine, but Dr. Jacobs made me feel completely confident. The surgery itself went incredibly smoothly. I followed every guideline he provided for both pre- and post-operative care, which made the process seamless. The day after my surgery, I had a follow-up visit, and despite it being a Friday procedure, Dr. Jacobs went above and beyond, scheduling a Zoom call with me on Saturday morning to check on my progress. The following Monday, I saw him in person for another checkup, and over the next several weeks, I had multiple additional follow-ups, including one just a few days ago for my five-month post-op checkup. The results are truly life-changing. My gynecomastia is completely gone, and my chest looks incredible—even better than I had hoped. Dr. Jacobs’ attention to detail and unmatched expertise gave me a result I never thought possible. During the recovery process, I experienced moments of worry, but I trusted Dr. Jacobs fully. Every single thing he assured me about came true exactly as he said it would. Dr. Jacobs is, in my opinion, the top gynecomastia specialist out there and worth traveling to if needed. Luckily, I’m local to his office in Boca Raton, Florida, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone considering this surgery, no matter where they are located. This surgery has truly given me a new lease on life. My confidence has skyrocketed, and I feel like a brand-new person. Thank you, Dr. Jacobs, for your exceptional care and expertise. I’ll forever be grateful for the transformation you’ve made possible.

Dr. Jacobs misled me to believe he could reduce/remove my embarrassing (male) breasts. My surgery was delayed several hours while he worked on another patient. When my post-op was finished and I told "Dr" Jacobs I wasn't happy with the results - members of my own family didn't think I'd even had the operation yet - he told me to "lose some weight." BTW, I was then 6'5" 230lbs in athletic shape. Don't trust this guy. I've lived with regret for years for going to him with with a vulnerable issue.

So very happy with the results and skill level of Dr. Jacobs. I followed him for 15 years (I first saw him as a teen on the discovery channel) and it was always my dream to one day be able to schedule a procedure with him. This year, my dreams came true. Today I went for my 3 month post op and cannot say better things about my experience, skill level and knowledge with him. He is a pioneer and one of the most highly trained and seasoned doctors. Thank you Dr. Jacobs!
