Getting cosmetic surgery was something I never thought I would do, but for various reasons I got a couple procedures done. Dr. Kouli and his staff are...

Dr. Kouli damaged my wife, and she has been in chronic pain for the past 3 years as a result. I tried to get her to file a malpractice case, but as with...

Dr. Kouli and his staff are 5* all the way. I waited until I was completely healed to write this review; 8-months post-op. I had a tummy tuck and breast implant swap completed in September 2022 after losing 120 lbs. I could not be more happy with Dr. Kouli and his staff. I interviewed EIGHT doctors before I found Dr. Kouli and I’m thrilled with my decision to proceed with him. I was initially interested in a breast lift with an implant swap and a tummy tuck. But Dr. Kouli advised me that because my original implants are over the muscle, the skin on my breasts was too thin and he did not recommend a lift. He was only one of two doctors that did not recommend a lift (even though he would have made a lot more money from my surgery). I could not be more pleased with the result. By adding just a few CC’s to my original implant size it gave me just enough “lift” to do the job. While Dr. Kouli was great; his staff was even more awesome. Samantha, the patient coordinator, was extremely helpful in going through all the steps before the surgery and through recovery. If you’ve ever had cosmetic surgery before you know that while the doctor’s skills are the most important factor; the patient coordinator does the heavy lifting before and after surgery. Samantha could not be any nicer; she’s REALLY good at her job. In addition to Samantha; Ruslana, his nurse, is AMAZING. She’s was the nurse during my surgery and she’s been in the room at all of my post-op appointments. She’s so thoughtful and patient. Both Samantha and Ruslana are beautiful inside and out. I cannot recommend Dr. Kouli and his staff highly enough!

I have been going to Dr. Kouli for a number of different issues since he took over Dr. Splinter's practice. When I was 13, I was attacked by a Doberman and have lasting issues with scarring on my face, including my lips. I'm nervous about artificial fillers (even though I get Botox...I know, I know...nonsensical!). Instead of talking me into something I wasn't comfortable with, Dr. Kouli and his staff helped me come up with solutions so that my lip scars wouldn't be so noticeable and annoying. I have also had a tummy tuck (which changed my life after two C-section babies) and some lipo (where the fat was used in my scarred lip to smooth out the scar tissue). After both surgeries, Dr. Kouli gave us his cell and answered it in the middle of the night when the pain medication I was using caused a reaction. He followed up with me the next day to make sure I was okay. His support staff is always AMAZING! I currently visit June Hill in his Del Mar office for Venus treatments and she is working with me on a treatment plan to help with some crazy familial cellulite and scarring which makes me very self conscience. His office and surgical support staff at both the Coronado and Del Mar offices have become friends. Kim is always very straightforward and honest when talking cost and surgical procedures. Megan and Julie in the Coronado office are always on it and are wonderful people. I live in East County and happily drive the miles to see them to take care of me. They enhance my life, helping me to feel more confident and happy. I appreciate Dr. Kouli and his wonderful staff immensely!

I am extremely satisfied w/my results and the care in which Dr. Kouli and his staff provide. From beginning at my initial consult with Kim to meeting with Dr. Kouli and having every step, question and concern answered and explained! I met with other plastic surgeons and after much research decided to go with Dr. Kouli. He didn't try to sell me on any other types of procedures, he laid out the plan on what I wanted and how he could help make it happen--- and he did, even better then I could've dreamed. Thank you Esthetica for giving me my confidence and PRE BABY body BACK!

Dr. Kouli and his whole team were AMAZING in every way. Dr. Kouli is so attentive and really cares about his patients. From the moment I met him I felt very cared for and comfortable. That was a huge reason why I chose him. He spent over an hour with me during my consultation answering all my questions and making me feel very safe. He knows exactly what he is talking about and has a lot of experience in many different fields. Even when I called with any concerns or questions after our consultation he got right back to me and reassured me every time. Dr. Kouli's work is amazing and I am beyond happy with my results. I am still in the healing process but have had a great healing experience. I have had no complications and continue to see better and better results as the weeks go on. Dr. Kouli's bedside manner is so amazing that he even gave me his cell number while he was away on vacation with his family in case I had any questions, which I did of course. He called me right back and again reassured me everything was great and I was healing nicely. He never made me feel like I was bothering him. Not even after the 5th call, haha. All my follow up appointments were great and once again Dr. Kouli gave me the time I needed to ask questions. (I am a big question asker if you haven't been able to tell yet, haha.) Dr. Kouli has just been so amazing from beginning to now. Once you meet him you will know exactly what I am talking about and you will not be disappointed. I also want to touch on the subject of Dr. Kouli's team and how amazing they are too. From Katie at the front desk always greeting you with a smile and answering the phone with an upbeat, positive attitude to Veronica whom helped me with all my paperwork and anything else that I needed, they were just outstanding. I was even able to meet the anesthesiologist before my surgery whom was great herself and made me feel so safe and comfortable, which let's be honest, your life is in her hands, and all the nurses and assistants who helped in the operating room and after surgery care. Everyone was just beyond amazing and kind. I promise you will not be disappointed with Dr. Kouli or his fantastic team. I really can't stress enough about how amazing my experience was and continues to be. I highly recommend Dr. Kouli to anyone and everyone looking to get any kind of reconstructive/ cosmetic surgery. You will NOT be disappointed. Thank you all again so much for all that you have done for me and my experience with Esthetica of San Diego, Dr. Kouli.

I am so happy with Dr Kouli's work! I recently had surgery done by Dr Kouli and I am beyond pleased with his talent and professionalism. Not only is he an awesome surgeon but he is very easygoing and easy to talk to. He was always willing to take my calls or messages and eased my fears and nerves. His office staff is also very friendly, easy to talk to and always willing ot accomodate your needs the best they can. I highly recommend Dr Kouli and his staff to all my friends and family.
