Reviews of Halpern David Dr- Tampa Bay Plastic Surgery, Inc. (Plastic Surgery)

Lori Romanzo

Dr. Halpern did an excellent job correcting skin cancer left by Mohs surgery. I had minimal down time, no bruising, small swelling and no scar. Mohs surgery I had significant bruising, swelling for days and a large scar. Thankfully, he not only removed the skin cancer but also the zig zag scar left by mohs. Office staff is professional and handled insurance. Great experience.

I have a son who has third degree burns and amputee of all the fingers on his right. I came to Dr Halpern for maximum movement with my sons hands and have been impressed with the things he hasdone for my child. We feel like family when we go to the office.

Dr. David Halpern is amazing. I most recently did the Strawberry laser lipo and it was so incredible. I painlessly lost 2 pant sizes and have my pre-baby figure back! My first experience with Dr. Halpern was when I accidentally stabbed myself with gardening shears and had to get nerve repair surgery on my thumb. Dr. Halpern was recommended to me as the best hand surgeon in this part of the country. Because of his surgeon skills and expertise (I will spare you the graphic details), I now do not have to worry about losing the use of my thumb. He saved me from what could have been catastrophic to my career as a photographer and artist. There are a few negative reviews I just read and they must be talking about the other Dr. Halpern that is in Tampa. Dr. David Halpern has a STERLING reputation. I have NEVER once spoken to someone that said anything other than how absolutely talented and amazing he is. His staff is also incredible. I will warn you though, you will love him so much that other doctor's won't be good enough anymore. He sets the standards extremely high and consistently exceeds my expectations. I have never waited for an appointment for more than 15 min in his office. When I had my thumb surgery the nurse said, "we need to go ahead and get you prepped because when Dr. Halpern schedules your procedure at 7am that means he wants to be operating on you at that time." This was such a relief because a lot of the past surgeries I've had with other doctors they schedule you at 7am but that's when they show up at the facility and then they don't start operating until much later. I'm sorry to write such a long review but Dr. David Halpern deserves every glowing word. The best part is if you do have a cosmetic procedure, he is so good that nobody will know. I have been to his office multiple times and I have never once seen someone who looks "fake." Dr. Halpern is not only skilled but his has excellent personal taste....meaning if you are a size 0 and you want a GGGG bra size, this is not the doctor for you. Think timeless, classy, elegant, discreet. That's what you will get from Dr. H. One more thing.....Dr. H is also the go-to Plastic Surgeon for all of the worst trauma cases that come to Tampa Bay. Triple board certified, Chief Plastic Surgeon of Tampa General.....and personal taste so you just look like the best version of yourself. That's why you go to him. He's the best.

I am writing this review to counter the 1 star reviews that have recently been left for Dr. David Halpern. The 1 star reviews are actually intended for Dr. JOSHUA Halpern out of Tampa. Joshua Halpern botched @myadventuretofit 's (Tiffany's) tummy tuck and refuses to take accountability. Dr. David Halpern unfortunately shares the same last name and a Tampa location, so follower's of Tiffany are getting confused.

Terrible doctor, please keep researching, you’ll not reach your dreams body with him. He erases the comments so you don’t see all the complaints. I’ve been looking at his profile for the past month and everyday more disappear

After paying for my initial consultation of $50. I was assured it would be deducted from the cost of my surgery. I was cajoled into scheduling far more procedures than I originally went in for. Two weeks before the surgery I paid Dr. Halpern's fee up front and was given scripts and an herbal medicine from his office called Senecch. I was never told the Senecch would not be a part of the total I had paid. Due to personal problems, I was forced to cancel the surgery. The agreement I signed said unless I cancelled "within" 72 hours before the surgery, I would be charged a $500. fee. Surgery was scheduled for 6:30 am on 2/22/13. My husband called for me on 2/19/13 to cancel at 12:00pm. which should have been acceptable. I have now been told I will not be given back $500. plus $25. for the Sinecch (which is not a prescription drug). This guy is a smooth operator and has an office full of ladies to oil the way. My name is not Gloria Gotrocks and I can't believe he took this money from me. He's welcome to the herbal Sinecch and beware of what you will get talked into. I can't imagine he really needed my $500. if he's all that great.

I am writing this review to let all people and families know that Dr. Halpern is not only a wonderful Doctor but also a kind and patient person. My mother had three cancer legions two Basal Cell Carcinomas and one Squamous Cell that were causing great pain. We had first visited a local dermatologist that told us "maybe radiation;however, there was nothing that he could do"! As.this didn't seem possible we researched options and eventually found Dr. Halpern. When we met the doctor he not only said "he could treat my mom; but, that she could again be comfortable. We were set for the procedure after the first visit and Dr. Halpern explained the steps and assured us of a great outcome. We have now completed the procedure and follow up visits with excellent results. It is with great pleasure that I give Dr. Halpern and his staff the highest recommendation. Our whole family would like to recommend Dr. Halpern for his professional services. Regards, Victor, Susan and Rip

I do not care what others have to say , I am came about Dr. Halpren a year ago or so when I needed to have my Achilles tendon replaced and needed a additional surgery to do so. I had a total positive experience and I am thankful for him and his staff, its been so wonderful and I am still in contact with his staff. I do not know how anyone could have a bad experience here at all. Sincerely, Michael Kelly Daytona Beach, FL

The BEST!! Dr. Halpern and his staff are amazing:)

I agree with the others on the relatives and being treated as a number. On a recent visit, I asked to speak to the Dr and was told "he's too busy". I heard him in the break room telling jokes. On another day, he joked about my incontinence. I found him to be arrogant, poor bedside manner and most important, failed completely in treating me. I have since changed to another dr and doing well.

Botches a surgery then blocks and deletes anything to do with the patient. Does not validate or respond to honest concerns and criticisms. Has now turned off comments on his IG page as he is scrubbing out the honest and bad reviews. DO NOT ISE THIS CROOK!!!

The best in Tampa

Please follow @myadventurestofit to see how her tummy tuck went, and how she now has to go and get it 100% redone (not even just a revision), because of the work this man did. Poor woman has to go through all the pain and suffering again.
