Terry J Zimmerman, MD

Dr. Zimmerman changed my life. He does beautiful work he has a kind soul and he’s an honest person. I would recommend anyone to him especially if you want life-​changing procedures.

Dr. Zimmerman is an incredible surgeon and an incredible man.

To go to Dr Zimmerman was the best decision I made in my life! Now I have the dream body I always wanted! He’s very professional and kind… The ladies in the office are also nice! The best experience ever!

Yesterday was my first visit to Dr. Zimmerman’s office. Very impressed. Staff was friendly and professional. I liked the fact that Dr. Zimmerman did not try to ‘sell’ me a product he felt I did not need. He was patient, professional and had a great bedside manner. Thank you

My friend got her breasts done with Dr. Zimmerman, because of my referral 7÷27÷15, which reminded me I should leave a Unilocal review about my wonderful experience! I had my breasts redone with Dr. Zimmerman, after one implant deflated in 2008. I heard about him for years, and although having a deflated breast was devastating at the time, I was so glad it happened, because now I have a perfect boob job. They are flawless, and I am proud!
My previous breast augmentation was done by Dr. Andrew Kaczynski in Sacramento. He did not align my nipples properly, so I was embarrassed to wear a lot of things, for fear my nipples would poke out in different directions. When I spoke to Dr. Kaczynski after the surgery, he completely blew me off, and said my breasts were lopsided before. If that was true, aren’t plastic surgeons supposed to correct that!?? I was disgusted by how Dr. Kaczynski treated me with such a lack of empathy or compassion. Not only did Dr. Zimmerman FIX my nipple alignment problem, he did it with one deflated implant!!! The funny thing is, I don’t think I even mentioned it, because of the deflation, and it still was corrected!
I get compliments all the time about my breasts, and have sent at least 5 of my fiends to him over the years. I’m just glad my story had a happy ending. Go to Dr. Zimmerman and be proud of your breast augmentation! :)

The entire staff is absolutely amazing! They made me feel completely comfortable and am so so happy with the end result! Have already referred a few of my friends! Highly recommend Dr.Zimmerman.

I just had my 3 month post op with Dr Zimmerman ! Amazing doctor I was really happy with my decision on choosing him. Has an amazing personality and makes you feel really comfortable. Not to mention the work he did was excellent !! very caring environment from his staff to dr. Zimmerman himself ! I would recommend this doctor to anyone looking to get work done and have seen a lot of his work done on other people as well and it always looks amazing !

I just had my 3 mo post op with Dr. Z… I adore his relaxed, warm approach and that he doesn’t try to talk me into things I don’t want. He clearly listens and understands my needs/​wants and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. His ladies in his office, Amazing!!! Always fun going in there!

In August of 2012, I went to Dr Z for breast augmentation, tummy tuck, and a little lipo on my sides to compliment the tummy tuck. I’ll begin with my breasts. When I went in for the consult, it was determined by Dr Z that one was bigger than the other (like most) he was supposed to fix that (not done). It was also determined that I could use a small «donut lift» as he called it. And to do that, he would need to go thru the nipple. Ok, so no lift and I now I have scars. So overall, not pleased with breast results. So I gave 2 stars because tummy tuck did give me a flatter stomach and lipo did improve my sides. But again, I have unattractive scaring. I’ve had stitches underneath the skin before and scars did not turn out like his. Stitches also came out in tummy and breast which he told me was normal… yea sure. I didn’t go back to dr z and voice my concern because I don’t want to make things worse. I would NOT recommend Dr Z to a friend… or enemy for that matter!

I saw Dr. Zimmerman in September 2013 for a tummy tuck consultation. Dr. Z had said that currently I wasn’t an ideal candidate and that his recommendation was to loose another 15lbs. I had already been loosing weight so I took on the challenge, booked my surgery and went and lost more than 15lbs. I had my surgery Dec 2^nd and let me just say WOW. I tried to be realistic and have reasonable expectations but let me say that Dr. Z far exceeded my expectations with his work. I wasn’t nervous the morning of at all, in fact I was quite calm. The surgery prep was a breeze and they were so fast and efficient I never had time to get nervous. I was awake as fast as they put me out! My stomach is flatter than what I had thought it would be, and he gave me my hour glass figure bad. His work is impeccable but more over his bedside manner, compassion, concern and care for his patients is of a caliber I’ve never seen from a Dr, let alone a plastic surgeon. Over all I’m completely blown away with my experience from start to finish! His office is complete with a staff as amazing as him as well! They were so helpful and fast when it came to paper work or any requests we had for my husbands time off ect. The experience was so amazing I cannot wait to go back for my breast lift! Thank you Dr. Z for being such a special part of my weight loss journey and helping to get me back to my skinny, healthy, happy self!

One of my awesome journey with Dr. Zimmerman, I made a tummy tuck I was scared to death at the beginning, but after the first consultation I really felt relief and safe, he explain to me every single details of the surgery and gave me advices what is the best for me, he didn’t care that I might scare from details and might run away, with his detailed explanation I felt I’m in the arm of honest Dr. that really honest with his patients. and the result is extremely perfect, Dr. Zimmerman is very caring and profession. beside he has a wonderful staff that really there for help and answer all the questions I need. I’m very happy with result of my tummy, scar is in excellent healing, he did an amazing job. Extremely recommend that Dr.

I went to Dr. Zimmerman in June of 2012 for breast augmentation. The first thing I was impressed with was his staff. Extremely professional and caring. Dr. Zimmerman had the best bedside manners. I decided on a size I wanted to achieve and he said when he physically examined me he would see if I needed a lift also due to my age (57) and having had three children. I was prepared for him to say I needed a lift also and was already wondering how much more it would cost. You can imagine my surprise and delight when he told me it did not look like I needed the lift. I am sure there are plenty of Doctors out there who would say the opposite and get paid even more. My breasts turned out beautiful and totally natural looking. His honesty was commendable and I would go back to him in a heartbeat. I never felt afraid and always felt safe and well taken care of in his care. I later went back for some facial Botox and fillers. He did an outstanding job. I had gone in the past to another Doctor for Botox and fillers and you couldn’t even tell and he was in a hurry, gruff and grumpy. Dr. Zimmerman is well worth every penny!

Dr. Zimmerman was recommended by another physician in the Folsom area and I was definitely not disappointed. Dr. Zimmerman and his staff made me very comfortable from the very first visit all the way to the final checkup. I am very happy with the results of the surgery he did to replace old implants. I would go to him again in a minute and would highly recommend him to anyone interested in cosmetic surgery.

I saw Dr. Zimmerman for an bilateral abdominal hernia repair. I also had an appendectomy scar that had adhered to the fascia and was stuck, so I also asked him to revise that with a mini-​abdominoplasty. I can’t tell you how happy I am with the whole experience! I’ve had eight kids and my stomach looked pretty bad! Because of the excellent work Dr. Z did on my stomach, the muscles are repaired and back in place, the scar is greatly improved, and my stomach looks better than it has in 30 years! His staff is amazing! If you have a need for surgery, Dr. Z is the one you want performing it, because he works to make you happy. Everything about his practice speaks of excellence, including his bedside manner, his staff, and his work. I can’t recommend him highly enough!

I had a rhinoplasty procedure done by Dr. Zimmerman. He did an amazing job. He also reccomended that I have the little piece of skin from my upper lip to my gums removed. This helped my mouth to close completely. Something I wasn’t even aware I had an issue with. Dr. Zimmerman also opened up obstructed airways on one side of my nose. Everything went great. Dr. Zimmerman and his staff are wonderful. The office is beautiful. I was reccomended to Dr. Zimmerman by many people who had either had a tummy tuck or breast augmentation. I highly reccomend this office.

I have had two surgical procedures by Dr. Zimmerman, one perfect, one not so perfect. The reason he still gets a 5-​star rating is due to his awesome bedside manner and the fact that he has continued to work with me on the not so perfect results to get me where I want to be. That’s is the epitome of professionalism and pride of work. He is the best doctor ever and I will continue to go to him as long as he is practicing.

After interviewing 5 plastic surgeons, I chose Dr. Zimmerman to «do» my eyelids. When I went back to his office for my post-​op visit, he commented on something I had seen myself — the outer corner to my left eye seemed a little saggy/​almost a little fold, you could say. I told him that that concerned me as well. Then he just began talking and in his solo «conversation», he said that he couldn’t have taken any more from my lid, and if he had I wouldn’t be able to close it. I didn’t believe it for a minute — but because it wasn’t terribly noticeable, I let it go. Also, upon my initial visit, I was given a book of pictures of various women that had had plastic surgery — their before and after pics. When Dr. Zimmerman asked if I had questions, I asked him if these were HIS patients. He said yes. However, since that day, I have seen several of the same pics in other doctors’ offices… hmmm…
