Douglas CusickDr

Around 2+ years ago, I saw Dr. Cusick for my first breast reduction consultation. I have struggled with body image for several years due to my large chest size compared to my overall body size. At the time of this appointment, I had desired to get a breast reduction for almost 10 years. When I decided to start looking at my options, I chose to see Dr. Cusick for my first consultation based on his online reviews, which is why I am choosing to write this. The nurses and receptionists that I spoke with were kind and helpful in explaining the process and what to expect. I was weighed and had photos taken to send to my insurance company. However, within 30 seconds of Dr. Cusick entering my room, instead of continuing the conversation of what to expect, talking through options, etc. Dr. Cusick said I was “50 pounds overweight” (I am 5’5.5 and I think was around 160-170 pounds) and that I needed to “buy a book on nutrition” and learn how to “fill my plate with protein, veggies and less carbs” instead of seeking out a breast reduction. His reasoning was that “if I continued to gain weight after the procedure, it would just be a waste.” I was ashamed, embarrassed and devastated. I apparently needed to be 110 pounds, so according to Dr. Cusick, a breast reduction was out of the picture for me. Even if that was true, his manner of delivery, lack of compassion and complete disregard for how a 23 year old woman might be feeling during this appointment, in the most vulnerable state, are the last things I would want to be true of a plastic surgeon I chose to work with. (I later saw an incredible surgeon in Lawrence that approved the surgery, validated my feelings and completely disagreed with and disproved Dr. Cusick’s opinions.) I wish I had the courage to share this earlier, however that appointment significantly impacted me. My hope in sharing this review is that if a young woman is looking into Dr. Cusick and his practice, that she would reconsider.

Love Dr Cusick. Him and his staff are very friendly. He does amazing work. Would recommend him to anyone. Had a boob job and couldn't be happier.

I had a wonderful experience from start to finish. I went in to have my nose straightened from a basketball injury along with adding a chin implant to help my side profile and give me a stronger jawline. As a male patient I can say I couldn’t be happier with my results. I have already recommended Dr Cusick to my friends.

Dr Cusick treated me for a broken thumb and I couldn't be happier with the care I received. His staff is professional yet friendly, and the office is intimate, clean, and comfortable. Dr Cusick was very clear about what my surgeries and healing time would look like and enthusiastically answered any questions I had. I felt very safe in his care and would go back for any future plastic surgery needs.

Dr Cusick and his team are absolutely wonderful. Dr Cusick made me feel at ease during each Dr’s visit . Dr Cusick not only transformed my body into amazing results, but he also educated me on the importance of a healthy lifestyle. I love my results! I have referred several ladies to his office as well. Thank you, Dr Cusick for helping me gain my confidence back..

I'm quite happy with the care I received with Dr Cusick. I got a referral from my primary care physician in order to remove a cyst from my forehead that was...

I was referred by my primary care physician to Dr. Cusick to have scar tissue removed from my lower lip from a fall I had several years ago. Since the first visit I've always felt comfortable in the office. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Wait times are very short if noticeable at all. Even after I'm in the examination rooms the wait to see Dr. Cusick is minimal. From an outside perspective it appears that the office is ran efficiently. After meeting Dr. Cusick there was immediate trust that I felt. This helped when it came time for surgery as I wasn't worried because I trusted that he would do everything wonderfully; and he did. I'm very happy with the work he completed. I just recommended Dr. Cusick and his staff to my best friend as she is wanting some plastic surgery in the future. Like I told her, "It's honestly one of the best visits compared to all other doctors and offices. They make you feel comfortable, welcomed, and Dr. Cusick does all that he can to make sure you're happy with the results."
