Dr Pierce performed both mine and my sister’s facelift . if we could give a negative star review we would. both of us are extremely unhappy w our results . he went almost 2 hours passed our scheduled surgery time for each of us only to come out looking exactly the same. very upsetting. the recovery period was brutal and all for nothing . he offered to do the facelift over for my sister and a laser and fat transfer on me however both of us lost complete confidence & trust in dr pierce. all that pain and suffering and $40,000 later to still look the same. very disheartening. my sister and i regret the day we ever walked into that office .

One of the most unethical and outright disgusting experiences I've had with a medical professional. My 16 month old hit her head and formed a gash above her eyebrow that needed stitches. I rush to the emergency room at Riverview in Red Bank and request a plastic surgeon to do the stitching. It would ultimately only require 5 stitches or so as it wasn't massive but given the age of the child and the location, it is quite important to minimize facial scarring for her long-term quality of life, I think anyone would agree. The ER staff send a picture of the injury to Dr. Pierce as he is the on-call plastic surgeon that day and shortly after I get a call from his secretary saying it would cost $8,500 for him to come. Why so much you ask? Maybe he doesn't take Blue Cross Blue Shield? Nope, he certainly DOES take insurance, BCBS included..... Apparently, the degree of the injury is not worth his time and that if I insist on him coming out then it would have to be worth his while which at the time meant $8,500 out of pocket, even though he normally takes my insurance. If the only way you are willing to stitch up a 16-month old's forehead is with a $8,500 cash payment, AS THE ON-CALL PLASTIC SURGEON AT A HOSPITAL...then you are an unethical lowlife with no business being tied to any hospital emergency room. In the end, another plastic surgeon, with an actual moral compass, showed up, even though it wasn't his on-call shift, did an amazing job, and took my insurance. Dr. Pierce should not be allowed anywhere near a hospital, stay in private practice and go charge whatever you want. Trying to make $8,500 on someone that is painted into a corner due to you being only choice at the moment? You should be ashamed of yourself and your medical license up for review on ethics concerns.

Had several visits to make sure I wasn't judging too quickly but it would appear I wasted my time. Not very transgender friendly, they will not make you feel welcomed at all going to them. Furthermore on multiple occasions they postponed my appointment last minute, once was in the evening the day before, and the last time was literally 20 minutes before my appointment when I was just down the road. When I told them I didn't feel very valued or respected they scoffed at me on the phone. The work they did was fine, if not horribly expensive compared to others providing laser hair treatment, they just don't have a knack for dealing with people.

If I can give zero stars I would. I had an initial surgery with Dr. Pierce in 2020 for four procedures, including a rhinoplasty septoplasty breast augmentation and breast lift. Fresh out of surgery my results were not desirable and it looks nothing like what I was told they would. A year later did a revision surgery where Dr. Pierce reassured me he would correct what needed to be corrected and it would be a lot different the second time around. As soon as I walked out of surgery, my nose was still crooked and he tried to reassure me that it was just swelling, but my nose never recovered. The second surgery was done in 2021. It is now 2024 and all this office has done was trying to book me for a third surgery after I saw Dr. Norman Rowe in Manhattan. I also went to physical therapy to try to help with the capsular contractors in my chest, and my therapist told me that she had a patient that had the same exact problem from the same exact doctor on the same exact side of her chest. Every time I left this office, I’ve left in tears, and I will never return back and make sure that anyone I know never goes to anyone in this practice for anything. They also have security cameras in the exam rooms in the manhattan location to which I’ve never been told of or had any consent forms to sign regarding. They tried to charge my insurance company for the surgery on my chest, almost $86k on top of what I’ve paid them. Horrible experience each time

My daughter, 20 years old, had a breast reduction performed by Dr. Pierce about 2 weeks ago. From the consultation to our post-op appointments, Dr. Pierce and his staff have been nothing but wonderful to both her and I. We have felt so taken care of- everyone takes the time to answer all of our questions (and we had MANY!) and you are treated like family there. Her surgery could not have gone better- her results are incredible. Dr. Pierce has given my daughter her life back. I am forever grateful.
