Dr Mia Talmor was recommended to me by another of my NYPresby surgeons for abdominal reconstruction after serious sepsis surgery that had herniated. She was kind, knowledgeable and effective! I recommended she and her team so highly!

I’ve known Dr. Mia told her for over 13 years. She is incredibly kind & patient. Extremely knowledgeable and beyond talented! The entire office is exceptional! After surgery Meghan the office manager took the extra time to walk me to my ride! Even though I had my sister with me she wanted to make sure the seatbelt was done correctly! Everyone at the office, from the nurses to the anesthesiologist, the front desk staff, and of course, Dr. Talmor (who is a supper star) is so caring. PS. The nurses texted me all weekend after surgery to 24/7 to answer questions. I cannot recommend Dr Talmor and her team highly enough !

UPDATE 5/27/25- BEWARE. Do your research. She is a breast surgeon, NOT a facial surgeon. I made the mistake of using her for a brow lift. My scars are on my forehead and very visible. They should be back in my hairline. I have followed up with others Drs who say she made a mistake and didn't do a good job. Seek out specific surgeons for specific areas. Lesson learned - the hard way. 5/27/25- update to the above. I am still so very upset. My eyes are too small (I also did a power bleph with her) and the scars on my forehead are worse and permanent. She did a TERRIBLE job. Please do NOT use her for facial surgery. I literally think about it every day and am so mad at myself for not shopping around. Learn from me! She is NOT good.

Dr. Otterburn has a great bedside manner. He explains everything clearly. Based on his knowledge and expertise I trusted all his recommendation. He offered the best personalize treatment plan and made me feel like I was his only patient.

Less than 1 year ago, I had my bilateral mastectomy redone at Memorial Sloan Kettering because of the poor job done by NYH-Cornell Medical Center. Despite...
