Robert Caridi, Dr

I've waited a year after my surgery to write this review. I went to Dr. Caridi for my 2nd revision surgery. My first two surgeries were excision-only without liposuction. My case was very minor - my main concern was getting rid of the small amount of remaining gland.

Unfortunately he has left my chest looking much worse than before. The incisions at the areola look sloppy and healed poorly, the nipples fold into themselves when warm, and there's severe cratering and loose skin. It's clear he was way too aggressive with liposuction.

After the initial follow-up the day after surgery, Dr. Caridi and his office never reached out to me again to ask how I was healing up. And the healing was not easy. Following his massaging protocol didn't help much, if at all. At 6 months, left with terrible results, I finally reached out.

Dr. Caridi was very dismissive about my concerns in the following months of email and photo exchanges. He kept assuring me the results would improve with more time. The language he used in his correspondences was highly unprofessional - at one point even saying that I was "torturing myself". After more complaining he finally offered to do a FaceTime call but I ultimately declined as I had lost all trust in him by that point.

In hindsight, my first FaceTime consultation before surgery was rushed, casual, and non-specific. I only found out I was to have liposuction (in addition to excision) after the call when they forwarded me the bill. During that call he said some bizarre and unprofessional things which I won't repeat here. It was personal and inappropriate. I foolishly glossed over these red flags.

Give a look on the Gynecomastia sub-Reddit and you'll find other folks who have suffered from a similar experience with Caridi. Wish I had done more research.

Other reputable surgeons have since informed me I'll need up to 2 more surgeries to correct Dr. Caridi's mistakes with scar revisions and fat grafting. Please consider my example as a warning. I highly suggest you look elsewhere for surgery.
