Douglas A Taranow, DO, FACS

Going to Dr. Taranow for my second breast augmentation was THE BEST decision I made. He was so gentle and professional that I had almost zero pain after my surgery. I felt like Dr. Taranow really gave me his full attention and cared about the procedure I had wanted done. He explained everything in full detail and then some, without me even having to ask the questions. After explaining the procedure, discussing different implants, pro’s and con’s of surgery, etc… he sat with me to try on different implant sizes to see what they would look like.
My breasts are natural and soft! He really is the best plastic surgeon and I will recommend everyone to him!
Also his staff nurses, anesthesiologist and Sara his secretary are the best, specially Sara she is a big support .
Thank you Dr Taranow

He’s an amazing Doctor not only did he give me beautiful breast but he did the same for my sister, cousins and a friend. I will go back to him for any future procedures. He very caring and takes his time explaining everything with great details. I will highly recommend him.

Dr Taranow is the ultimate professional. He listens to your concerns and cones up with a natural looking result. I highly recommend Dr Taranow!

I highly recommend Dr.Taranow.
Every visit has been such a good experience from beginning to end.
The staff is always super helpful and they really make you feel at home.
I am always able to get an appointment that works with my schedule and have never had to wait so my day is not interrupted.
The results are effortless and immediate and I always leave feelling confident and a bit younger ;)
Most call him a doctor, I call him a hero!
He is my doctor for life.

I’m giving him one star because his staff is nice. I went to him for breast implant revision and lipo on my arms. He overcharged me and did a horrible job. My arms look disgusting and uneven, my breast look HORRIBLE, I have to spend tons of money now to remove my implants and just get a lift. He knows that he did a horrible job because he never even took after pictures. I never bothered to go back to him for a follow up and he obviously didn’t reach out to me because he knows what he did wrong.

Dr Taranow does magic with juvaderm and voluma! I looked tired all the time from stress and being over 40, and he was my hero, This guy knows what he is doing! I went to two other doctors before him, both were more expensive and had results I liked less. I could not be happier with Dr. Taranow.
He also replaced scar tissue rock hard breast implants I got was a 21 year old athlete. He made me feel incredibly comfortable about the procedure –I’d thought about doing it for years. I was referred to him by a friend, and she was right — he took the time to really explain options, and payed attention to what I wanted.
AND he’s a super nice guy!

If I could give less than I would. He sliced through my pectoral muscle while replacing a burst implant. I just found out when I had my breast corrected last week. Under his «skill» my implants came out looking like a surrealistic painting with one placed correctly and the other drooping down by my belly button. He cared more for his autistic son then his patients and kept making the classy remark «are you sure you don’t have insurance because I could charge them a bunch for this operation whoa-​ho. Could I.» I lived years in hell looking this way until I could finally get the money together to have it fixed. He loves to talk about his autistic son and how much his schooling is. If you want to pay for this quack’s son’s school then go to him.

Where do I begin??? Simply stated, Dr. T has changed my life! After many years of battling my weight and, at times, being morbidly obese, I finally decided to do something to take charge of my life. I had lap band surgery in January 2012 and to date, I’ve lost approximately 160 lbs! As you could imagine, between excessive weight loss and two pregnancies, my body looked like a deflated balloon. I was lucky enough to cross paths with Dr. Taranow and in February 2014, he worked his magic. I had breast augmentation surgery as well as a tummy tuck /​body lift.
Throughout the process from beginning to end, Dr. Taranow and his staff treated me like family. I was never rushed or pressured into making a decision. The ease of appointment scheduling and availability to answer questions via telephone or text, was so convenient and important to me. Dr. T set realistic expectations of both the surgery recovery and recovery time, as well as the physical results. One thing you should know, Dr. Taranow is a perfectionist! He’s caring, concerned and always available. His bedside manner is amazing. I feel great, I look great and this summer was the first I’ve EVER worn a bikini in public! Two of my friends had similar surgeries with Dr. T in the months following my surgery and we are all extremely pleased with our results and the overall experience with Dr. Taranow, his surgical team and Sara, his office manager.
If you are seriously considering any type of plastic surgery, I encourage you to look no further. Please schedule a consultation, you will not be disappointed! If you need further reassurance, please visit Dr. Taranow’s website and view his before and after photos to see all of his magnificent work, including me! After all, there’s a reason I call him Dr. Magic Hands”!

After meeting with numerous doctors to get cosmetic procedures done, Dr. Taranow was the only one that actually took the time out and explain to me all the details that would entail in the procedure, pre and post op. He even told me to hold off on certain procedures because he feels after having two kids, I can lose the extra pounds on my own the natural way instead of spending the money. We had an agreement that the decision to perform an extra procedure would be left upto him during the process and if he felt it wasn’t necessary he would refund my money back, which he did. It’s great to know there are still human doctors out there that aren’t just doing their job for the money. He is wonderful and I recommend him all the time to everyone when asked for a plastic surgeon. Two years later after being his pt, I am so happy with the results that on the anniversary date of my surgery I have a glass of wine to his name and his work. He is awesome!!!
Thank you Dr. Taranow

Saw his work on a girlfriend of mine, ended up getting work done and referred 3 other girls who all got work done as well. His work on your body looks natural and feels real to the touch (we all got breast implants). Went in 2005 and am thinking of going back soon. Only downside is the photos on his website are nowhere near as awesome as most of his work actually is. TARANOW UPDATE WEBSITE PHOTOS NOW!!!
He always makes you feel comfortable, as if you have been friends for years, listens to what you want, zero pressure, yet completely committed to your happiness. Ladies considering plastic surgery… go
