EXPERIENCE WAS WONDERFUL

“Dr. Churgin did my breast reduction (first surgery I’ve ever had) and between her and her staff I could not have asked for a better experience. I am extremely happy with her work. I smile every time I see my new breasts. I can’t get over how well they now fit my frame, the relief to my back and neck, how much better my clothes fit, just everything. I have to thank her staff members Heidi, Kathy and Frank for also helping to make this experience wonderful. You all have been so amazing in this process, thank you! If you are considering Dr. Churgin for a breast reduction or any procedure really, I suggest you go for it. She answers all questions very thoroughly and explains every detail very well. She has a very calm and comforting vibe about her that makes you immediately relaxed and you just know you’re in good hands with her.”

BEST EXPERIENCE

“DR. Churgin and her team gave me the best experience I could have ever asked for! Back in October I got a breast reduction ,lift & liposuction one by Dr. Churgin and I cannot put into words how much she changed my life. Before my reduction I lacked so much confidence and working out regularly was becoming changeling due to the weight on my chest. Since my reduction, working out is so much easier and painless. The confidence I have gained from getting this done makes me speechless. I cant stress enough how much I encourage anyone who is thinking about getting a Breast Reduction done, to do it. Dr. Churgin truly is amazing!”

5/5 STARS UNEQUIVOCALLY!

“Wonderful experience at Dr. Churgin’s office after taking my daughter there for an evaluation. I found the office staff to be very professional and courteous from start to finish. The doctor was very friendly and thorough, taking her time and explaining everything during the examination. It was our first time to a plastic surgery office and we highly recommend this establishment and understand why they have such high reviews. 5/5 stars unequivocally!”

CARING SURGEON!

“Fantastically skilled and caring surgeon. She sewed up my scalp after I had something removed. I required 20 stitches to close the wound. She did such a terrific job closing it up that you could hardly see a scar!”

SO FAR SO GREAT!

“What can I add to all of the true positive reviews but so far so GREAT! I suffer from extreme scaring on my nose from Rosacea. The scaring is so bad that it’s closing my nostrils. Dr. Churgin suggested that we try to remove the scare tissue from my nose in three sections starting with my left nostril. With this done I can tell you in no uncertain terms that I am breathing better from that side of my nose and the healed left side of my nose looks great. Dr. Churgin is extremely talented at her profession but most of all you can tell that she absolutely cares about her patients. Dr. Churgin’s caring disposition is carried through the entire office staff. Everyone in the office are extremely nice at every interaction including her wonderful mother Mrs. Churgin. I’m am very confident that my next two procedures will be as successful as the first.”

SHE IS AN EXCELLENT SURGEON

“I just wanted to let everyone no about a great plastic surgeon I meet today. I was interested in getting a little surgery done an was very nervous about it. Until I meet Dr. Churgin. She was so informative an knowledgeable about all the procedures in her practice. I even had gone to my vascular surgeon an asked him if he knows of Dr Churgin in Good Samaritan hospital. He said of course I do. She is an excellent surgeon. And a very good choice. I’m so happy that she is a surgeon on Long Island and also in Manhattan. Very well known in Good Samaritan hospital.if anyone is considering plastic surgery she is truly a good choice. It was very easy to make a consultation appointment. They worked around my schedule. And was able to get me a consultation right away. No pressure an easy to talk to each an every one of them. Mrs Churgin, Heidi, an Kathy were very pleasant on the phone.”

I came in for transgender top surgery (ftm) and Dr. Churgin and the staff helped me achieve every single goal I had in mind. I felt no pressure and very comfortable in dealing with the whole office. I was able to have the top surgery completed and the cost on what was covered by insurance and something that wasn’t covered and was cosmetic was clear and accurate. Overall, I would highly recommend Dr. Churgin to anyone who needs a plastic surgeon because Dr. Churgin is amazing!!”

POSITIVE EXPERIENCE

“I have had a positive experience with Dr. Churgin. She removed a fatty cyst from my forehead, correcting a prior surgery. Dr. Churgin was thorough and friendly. Initially, she postponed the surgery because she was not comfortable with addressing the removal due to the previous surgeon’s failure to completely remove the cyst. She took the time to investigate the prior lab results and apologized to me for the inconvenience, however, this is exactly why I chose Dr. Churgin. When I returned to have the surgery a few weeks later, there was a slight delay but the surgery was performed. Visually, the scar is healing well and the bump is gone. In all honesty, there is some numbing due to a nerve which was aggravated during the procedure which Dr. Churgin believes will subside over time, however Dr. Chugin asked that I keep her informed if the numbness has not completely decreased. In this regard, I am reaching out to her soon. I would recommend Dr. Churgin she is pleasant, knowledgeable, and cautious regarding how she approaches her work.”

THIS LADY IS VERY SKILLED

“On Christmas Eve, I was bit on the face by a dog. I had a laceration on my upper lip. My fiance brought me to the ER at Huntington Hospital on Long Island. Luckily, Dr. Churgin was the on call plastic surgeon for that evening. I was terrified. I am not accident prone, and have zero experience with an injury like this. Dr. Churgin arrived at the ER, and was so calm, cool and collected. She immediately went to work on me, exuding complete confidence in what she was doing…which made me instantly trust her. She was my Angel that evening. I should mention that the weather was horrible that night, and she had to drive through terrible wind to get there. She was cheerful and joked about it. To put me at ease, she made Netflix recommendations to us while she worked on me.. but paid attention when I asked her questions. A week later, I had a follow up with her in her Manhattan office. Her admin, Heidi was particularly kind on the phone when she made the appointment. This was so refreshing. Kindness goes a long way when you are injured.. Once in the Manhattan office, her assistant, Frank was very personable and helped us with the necessary paperwork that all Docs have to deal with. He was very kind and patiently reviewed with us what had happened. To my surprise, Dr. Churgin was able to remove the stitches, and I am on the mend. I know I am not the easiest patient, as I don’t do well with pain, and I’m a bit of a fraidy-cat. She just did her thing, and I feel better and look better every day! This lady is very skilled, and knows her stuff! I am in awe of people like this who can fix us. Thank You Dr. Churgin!”

“I had surgery with Dr Churgin almost a month ago and not only am I already in love with my results. I’ve never felt so loved and cared for by a doctors office in my life, It feels weird to even call them a doctors office because they are truly family at this point. Dr Churgin is the most thoughtful and caring doctor you can ever meet no wonder she’s won the most compassionate doctor award countless times along with many other awards. She is the most talented and gifted woman you will ever meet, there is no one better than her. She answers all the questions you have and makes you you feel so calm before surgery. It’s always so great talking to her. If you’re ever confused on which surgeon to go to she’s the one you should choose no doubt about it.”

EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS HAS GONE SMOOTHLY!

“I went to Dr. Churgin after finding her on the Empire Plan’s directory for breast reduction surgery to permanently relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain. PHENOMENAL is an understatement to describe Dr. Churgin and her staff! When you become a patient of Dr. Churgin’s, you become family. I have felt extremely cared for through every step of my journey so far. Leading up to the surgery, I was very nervous. Dr. Churgin and her staff were extremely attentive to me, answered ALL of my questions, and reassured me that everything would be all right. Every step of the process has gone smoothly! The surgery went really great and was done at Good Sam hospital rather than an office which allowed for ample post-surgery recovery resources. My bra size was 30DDD at 125 pounds, 5’4, slim/athletic frame. Dr. Churgin brought me down to approx. a B. I’m 11 days post-surgery and the healing process is going well. Dr. Churgin’s office has called to check-in on me every single day and if I have any questions, her staff always gets back to me ASAP. Look no further than Dr. Churgin if you’re considering a reduction!”

GREAT SURGEON! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

“Dr. Churgin is AWESOME! Period! I ended up at her office after experiencing two terrible minor surgical procedures, two horrendous scars and two terrible encounters with surgeons. She is one of VERY FEW surgeons who is actually Board Certified on Long Island. Her staff is on point and calls when they say they will. Every appointment I had, I went straight in, never waiting in a packed waiting room. When I first met Dr. Churgin, she was extremely friendly and personable. She took the time to listen to my nightmare and explained things that my other doctors never had. For the first time I finally felt comfortable and at ease in a surgeons office. As for my surgery, I could not be happier. My last two surgeries left me with keloidic scarring and nerve damage. The surgery Dr. Churgin performed barely left a mark! I wish I found her earlier, but I’m so glad my trip down surgery road, led me to her office in the end! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!”

AMAZING!

“A month ago, I had a Breast Reduction with Dr. Churgin. She is AMAZING! From the first consultation I knew I met the right doctor. Not only is she a brilliant surgeon but she is so down to earth. I had serious medical concerns in the past with anesthesia and was worried about surgery. She went above and beyond to make sure I would be ok. She reached out to my other doctors and got the best anesthesiologist team, who she fully briefed about my issues, and assured me I would be fine. She was so thorough; she would even call me on the weekend to keep me updated! The entire staff are very friendly, professional and go above and beyond! I absolutely love them all! They even worked with my insurance company, which covered the procedure 100%. I have always had large breasts (38H) and had years of back, neck and shoulder pain. Making the decision to have this surgery was the best decision I could have ever made for myself. I am so in love with my new breasts! I feel lighter and more confident. I am having so much fun bra and bathing suit shopping, which I used to dread because nothing ever fit!

Dr. Churgin was confident, friendly and just plain easy to talk to. I felt comfortable with her right away. She listened closely to my areas of concern and addressed each and every one of them.

STOP READING AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

“If your reading this review you must be looking for a plastic surgeon, STOP READING and make an appointment, it will be the best choice you ever made. I am now 6 month post up and could not be more pleased. I no longer have any pain in my breasts, back or rib cage.There are no words to express my appreciation, but she will always hold a special place in my heart. I consider her not only my Dr. but my friend. Sometime people will say only God can perform miracles but that’s not true.”

ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH MY RESULTS

“I am currently 3 weeks post-op from a breast augmentation with Dr. Churgin and have nothing but praise for Dr. Churgin and her entire office. After coming across her practice, I immediately knew I would be in good hands. Dr. Churgin’s level of expertise is evidenced through each conversation we have and I could have not asked for more from a doctor. On top of that I’ve been overly impressed with the post op care and contact. Absolutely in love with my results, and would highly recommend to all!”

A WONDERFUL SURGEON

“From the first phone call, I knew I had chosen the practice and doctor for my surgery. From Cathy, to Mrs Churgin to Alan to Helen, each staff member has their own personality but bundle them all together and you get friendly and efficient service. From my initial call with Cathy and Mrs Churgin, I felt like a family member not a patient, They worked with me and my crazy work schedule as well as with my insurance, All I had to do was be compliant and show up for my consultation, Once I met Dr. Churgin, I knew for sure I was in great hands and that all my anxiety and worries would be solved. Dr. Churgin is a warm, passionate person who has a personality that is only surpassed by her genuine smile and skill She reflects confidence to her patients as sits and listens and actually addresses you questions and concerns . The night before my surgery was scheduled, I began to panic and sure enough, there was Dr. Churgin, calling me in the evening to put everything into perspective. I came thru the surgery with flying colors and have to thank D Churgin for it all. Every day post op until my follow up appointment (6 days later) Cathy or Alan would do their “check in” call. It made you feel that you were not alone and that everyone genuinely cared about how you came thru the surgery and how the recovery was coming . I feel truly blessed to be part of Dr. Churgin’s :”professional” family and would highly recommend her and her practice for any general surgery and/or plastic surgery. Putting it all together: Great personality, unsurmountable skills, board certified in both Surgery and Plastic Surgery and an additional fellowship in Body Contouring plus great office staff.

SHE GAVE ME WHAT GOD DIDN’T

“My breast reduction is now 3 months post op and I could not be more pleased. For most of my life I have been very large breasted (40G) and always in pain. I was always ashamed of my appearance. I made an appointment several months back with Dr. Churgin and I never looked back. Dr. Churgin provides a level of care that you just don’t find anymore. She was genuinely interested in me and my health concerns. She took her time and answered all my questions, she explained every step of the procedures thoroughly. She has been my life saver. Her post op care is the best. Dr. Churgin is the most compassionate Doctor I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I would also be remiss if I did not say thank you to Mrs. Churgin and Kathy for all there help in getting me approved by my insurance company. Mrs. Churgin was very direct in explaining what was covered and what was not and even when we did have an issues with the insurance payment, Mrs. Churgin made sure the situation was fixed 100%. All of the Staff, including Alan and Kathy and Helen are the most capable, caring and professional staff I have ever met. There are no more words to express my gratitude. Thank you all.”

AMAZING SURGEON

“Dr. Churgin performed a bilateral breast reduction on me about two weeks ago. She is an amazing surgeon and I would absolutely recommend her, their is truly not one bad thing to say about my experience with her. She is kind and caring and after only 2 weeks post op I feel and look great! She worked hard to get my reduction combined with another breast surgeon in order to remove a fibroadenoma at the same time. She recommended this because she really wanted to do what was best for my health. l am 100 percent happy with my results and owe all my happiness to Dr. Churgin. Her staff is just as caring as she is and Cathy went above and beyond with checking on me and making sure everything went smoothly . Having Dr. Churgin perform my surgery was the best decision I could have made!.”

COULDN’T BE HAPPIER

“I came across Dr. Churgin while reasearching more deeply into a surgeon with whom I had already booked a procedure with. After reading the reviews on my current doctor and comparing them to the rave reviews of Dr. Churgin I knew I needed to switch over to her practice. Upon calling to discuss with Doctor Churgin’s office, I spoke with Kathy who was beyond accommodating and put me in touch with Mrs. Churgin (the office administrator) who took the time to call and speak with me for almost 2 hours!! On the phone Mrs. Churgin answered all of my questions, provided me with advice, and even worked with Kathy to schedule an appointment with Dr. Churgin for the following day. When I went to the office I was blown away by the super friendly staff, the ease of filling out paperwork with Allan, and the cleanliness. I then met with Doctor Churgin who is the nicest, most thorough Doctor that I have EVER met. At no point did I feel any question was too silly to ask, or that I was being rushed. She took the time to take precise body measurements and fill me in on all possible options for surgery. The amount of confidence I have in her surgical skills cannot be put into words and I cannot wait to have my procedure done!”

“Dr Churgin was/is very professional. I had MOHS surgery on the bridge of my nose and was concerned with scarring. Within 2 weeks there was not a trace of the 16 stitches. It is a year later now and unless pointed out, no one would know I had surgery. Just went back for another MOHS and I will see how this one looks after the stitches are removed.

The office staff are positive, professional, and warm. I decided to have Dr Churgin do my surgery and paid not only her fee in full, but anesthesia and use of the hospital for pre-op testing as well. The only that was preventing me from having the surgery right away, was that I wanted to do it while my daughter was home from college so she could help with my post-op recovery. Just before she was to come home for winter break, I had emergency surgery on my hand which then became infected post-op. I have not yet been cleared by the Infectous Disease doctor.

DR. CHURGIN WAS INCREDIBLE

“Dr. Churgin was incredible when it came to answer my thousands of questions and concerns. From day one, she was incredibly supportive. My insurance originally did not want to cover this reduction, though for years it caused pain and suffering. Dr. Churgin recognized this and set up a meeting with my insurance to assure them this surgery was truly medically necessary. On the day of the surgery, she was extremely calm and comforting, resulting in a worry-free operation. This surgery was life changing for me and without Dr. Churgin, I don’t think I would have ever went through with it. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Churgin for a breast reduction, or any plastic surgery for that matter.”

SHE IS FLEXIBLE AND REALISTIC ABOUT

“My five-star review reflects this doctor’s excellent surgical skills and personable manner. She is direct, informative and knowledgeable about plastic surgery. In addition, she is flexible and realistic about developing expectations. Dr. Churgin knows what she’s doing when it comes to procedures, and you will feel comfortable with her. I had less of a great time with her office. Her staff members are amiable and responsive – they always pick up the phone, and they do their best to help. However, it is very difficult to get an answer from the doctor outside of an appointment, whether by phone or email. Her staff members contradicted each other on major points such as price, payment and medical information. Personally I found this very frustrating. With this office it’s best to nail down everything in person and in writing. It is certainly a busy place, and you could definitely do a lot worse in terms of back-office interaction, but it’s not the best either. Having dealt with several plastic surgeons over my lifetime for various reasons, I don’t regret choosing this surgeon. She did great work, was pleasant to talk to, and provided detailed follow-up care. But, be prepared with a strong relationship with your PCP and specialists (oncologist, etc.), all of your own documentation, and handle questions and arrangements while at the office and in writing, or you’ll have a headache on your hands.”

COULDN’T BE HAPPIER!

“I have lived with a birthmark on my scalp for many years. It is a lesion made up of unfinished scalp the size of a half-dollar. It never bothered me until this past year as it had become quite painful. My dermatologist highly recommended I see Dr. Churgin. Upon meeting her, I found her to be very receptive, pleasant, friendly and highly educated. In addition, she is very thorough having sent me for a variety of tests to fully determine as to the cause of the discomfort I have been experiencing. Dr. Churgin and her staff are incredibly friendly and helpful especially with my insurance coverage to the point where they went out of their way to get written authorization and consent from my carrier. In all my years, I have never, ever encountered such a positive experience with any medical office such as Dr. Churgins. Cathy, Helen and Alan are extremely professional and pleasant and go above and beyond to accommodate their patients. Mrs. Churgin, the office’s administrator would phone after hours to keep me “in the loop” on numerous insurance issues to the point that I felt as if we had been friends forever. I am just incredibly blown away by how attentive Dr. Churgin and her staff are – it is so surreal for me. The care and kindness did not stop post-op. A warm and friendly Dr. Churgin greeted me after surgery to answer any questions I had – in addition her staff phoned me at home to check on my progress. My surgery was one week ago and have already had two post-op visits as Dr. Churgin insists on checking on the status of my healing. I have every intention of recommending Dr. Churgin and her staff to all my friends and family.”

I AM 100 PERCENT HAPPY WITH MY RESULTS

“Dr. Churgin performed a bilateral breast reduction on me about two weeks ago. She is an amazing surgeon and I would absolutely recommend her, their is truly not one bad thing to say about my experience with her. She is kind and caring and after only 2 weeks post op I feel and look great! She worked hard to get my reduction combined with another breast surgeon in order to remove a fibroadenoma at the same time. She recommended this because she really wanted to do what was best for my health. l am 100 percent happy with my results and owe all my happiness to Dr. Churgin. Her staff is just as caring as she is and Cathy went above and beyond with checking on me and making sure everything went smoothly . Having Dr. Churgin perform my surgery was the best decision I could have made!”

MOHS SURGERY CLOSURE

“Dr. Samara Churgin has performed over 4 closures resulting from Mohs Surgery for the removal of Squamous Cells resulting from sun damage. The last surgery, over 1 month ago, was under my left jaw line / neck line. The size of the wound was over 1/2 dollar. Today you can not see a trace of a scar, even if you look very hard. Dr. Churgin has amazing hands and impeccable skills of a plastic surgeon. I would not hesitate to refer Dr. Churgin to anyone.”

THRILLED WITH MY REVISION RHINOPLASTY

“I had a workplace accident in 2008 in which I injured my nose and needed surgery. Another plastic surgeon performed the first nasal surgery. I had difficulty breathing after that surgery and was not really pleased with my appearance. That surgeon ignored my complaints. Because I had several other injuries, I could not address the problems with my nose again for a few years. Finally I was able to take care of my nose and found Dr. Churgin on the web. Her reviews were phenomenal. Dr. Churgin operated on me and I am thrilled with the results. Immediatley after surgery I was able to breathe perfectly. My nose looks great! The tip is turned up and the nose is straight. Most importantly, I can breathe normally for the first time in many years. THANK YOU DR. CHURGIN FOR GIVING ME MY APPEARANCE AND BREATH BACK! This surgery has restored my self esteem. I forgot how to smile after my first nasal surgery and now I feel like smiling again. Also, Dr. Churgin’s staff was very supportive. They followed up with me after the surgery and did everything possible to help me. I live out of state and therefore scheduling was very complicated. Dr.Churgin’s staff bent over backwards to make sure that my preoperative and postoperative courses were smooth. I would recommend Dr. Churgin and her office staff to everyone!”

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH KIND WORDS TO SAY ABOUT DR. CHURGIN

“There are not enough kind words to say about Dr. Churgin. From the initial appointment to follow-ups she is an incredible doctor. I had a bi-lateral breast reduction done about a month ago. I visited several doctors prior to visiting Dr. Churgin but I was still uneasy about the procedure. Dr. Churgin explained the entire process to me, gave me more options than any other doctor had previously, and worked with my insurance to get my procedure fully covered. The morning of my surgery Dr. Churgin was calm and reassuring. She explained to me everything that was going to happen, assured me that she was going to take her time, and let my parents stay with me up until the point I entered the OR. My surgery went well with no complications. A while after surgery my pain medication wore off and I had a period of time where I was waiting for my discomfort to subside. Dr. Churgin came back to the hospital after tending to other patients at her office just to make sure I was being taken care of and feeling okay. My recovery has been incredibly fast and I was able to start work less than two weeks post-op. I am so happy with my procedure and incredibly thankful for Dr. Churgin!!”

“This doctor is the best doctor I have seen or visited in years. Going to Dr. Churgin helped me tremendously. I will recommend her to everyone I know. A doctor who actually did my surgery refused to see me any longer because I did not have two hundred dollars and I was in severe pain. But I reached out to Dr. Churgin she saw me and I cried in her office because I could not believe how she took care of me. I went to her with two issues and because of the person she is she was able to get another doctor there to help me with my second issue. She was my second blessing from God in disguise. that day.Thank you so much Dr. Churgin you will never know how your hands and presence helped me. Blessings to you.”

BREAST AUGMENTATION

“Best Doctor and Staff Ever! I feel I should make a review for both Dr. Churgin and her amazing staff as they are deserving of such acknowledgement and praise. Review for Dr. Churgin: I can’t thank Dr. Churgin enough for making my first cosmetic surgery a wonderful and comfortable process. From Day 1, she has been so hospitable, caring and truly genuine. I knew from that moment on that I made the best decision in choosing her as my doctor. This surgery was a long-time coming, something I’ve desired for years but was never ready with so many uncertainties. I want to thank Dr. Churgin for being more than just a doctor throughout this entire process, but more like a good friend that I can open up to and be comfortably at ease with. I know I’ll be starting off the new year with a newfound confidence, and I thank her for that!! I’m very happy with the outcome of my breast augmentation and am recovering very nicely. She is an artist! Highly recommended. Review for the Staff: The wonderful staff (Kathy, Helen, Alan, Nadia, Mrs. Churgin) I can’t thank them enough for making my experience with my surgery a wonderful and seamless process. From Day 1, they have all been so hospitable, caring, professional and reliable. I am very grateful to have met and chatted with each of the amazing staff, who make everyone feel very engaged and special – like family. Also, I thank them for consistently providing follow-up phone calls well after my surgery to check on my progress and health. Love the constant communication!”

A GENIUS DOCTOR

“I was looking for a good experienced plastic surgeon to do my breast reduction. While looking online, I saw Dr. Churgin and other surgeons, but somehow, I decided to go to her. Most of my friends that had some reduction told me about their surgeons, but I didn’t like the results of their surgeries; there were too many scars. When I called Dr. Churgin’s office to ask about a consultation, the staff was so nice, I made the appointment right then and there. When I arrived at the office, I felt very comfortable. The office was clean and the staff was amazing. When I saw Dr. Churgin, I wasn’t expecting such a genius could be so petite, pretty, and sweet. She took a photo and explained everything to me so I could understand it. She told me what to expect and what she could do to make me happy, which I am. I gave my insurance information to one of the staff – with whom I fell in love, by the way. She told me not to worry and that they would take care of everything. When I didn’t hear from the staff for about 2 weeks, they called to let me know that they are still working with the insurance company. What I really appreciate is they never left me hanging and always kept me in the loop. They got insurance company approval with no problems. They were very direct with me in explaining what insurance would and would not pay I knew that I would be responsible for a deductible. As for the outcome – my breast reduction was a TOTAL success, I kid you not. My breasts are so perfectly done that my friends tell me I had implants instead of a reduction. As for post-surgery recovery, I was up and about in 4-5 days. I had just a little soreness, but no real pain to speak of. I am one of the happiest persons on earth with my breast reduction and lift, I very highly recommend Dr. Churgin to anyone who is considering a breast reduction, lift, implants or any other cosmetic or reconstructive surgery. I gave Dr. Churgin 5 stars in all 8 categories and she earned every single one of those stars.”

WONDERFUL DOCTOR

“In 2011, I noticed a mole on my forehead. The mole became a source of irritation and in 2012, I decided that it had to be removed. For this, I went to Dr. Churgin because her partner, who is an orthopedist, provided wonderful treatment for my husband over the years. I am very glad I came to see Dr. churgin. Dr. Churgin took the time to reassure me that there should be no problem, but that she would have it biopsied, just to make sure. The removal of the mole was totally painless and the site healed so that no one would have reason to think it was a surgical site. Also, the staff was very accommodating and professional. I would recommend Dr. Churgin to anyone who needs plastic surgery and will definitely return should I develop a condition which requires treatment by a plastic surgeon.”

I was so impressed with her receptionist who asked me all about myself. A few moments later I received a telephone call from her office giving me an appointment for the next day. Upon my arrival I was offered a beverage and a snack while I waited for Dr. Churgin. Dr. Churgin treated me as though I was one of her private patients who would be paying a private fee for service. However how as I stated I am an insurance patient. Dr. Churgin even brought in her partner who does not participate in my insurance. He treated me for my back and leg after Dr, Churgin treated me for skin issues. I am so grateful that I have the peace of mind knowing that Dr. Churgin and her partner Dr. Arvan really care about me and are trying to help me with my myriad of medical issues. They did refer me out to other professionals who they know will be of assistance to me. I will be returning to Dr. Churgin as soon as all my test results are back.

A GREAT OVERALL EXPERIENCE – RHINOPLASTY

“After conducting extensive research online looking for a top surgeon who specializes in Rhinoplasty I time and time again was introduced to Dr. Churgin. My first phone call into the office was extremely positive and set the tone for the type of interaction I received throughout my procedure and presently during my follow-ups. During that initial phone call all my questions were answered and I was given lots of information specific to my situation. After scheduling an in person visit I walked into a very professional and state of the art facility. The office environment was very friendly and inviting. Dr. Churgin was very helpful in informing me about what could be done to my nose and very quickly understood my vision. It was also great that Dr. Churgin gives out her personal number in which she can be contacted anytime. To prep for surgery I was given medicine to help with post surgery. The surgery was an absolute success and now 2 weeks later the swelling has subsided substantially. The great thing about Dr. Churgin and her wonderful staff is that even though it’s not necessary to come in frequently post surgery she does not charge patients to come in for follow-ups. Her phone is always by her side and I have called a few times with questions and she answered them very quickly. There is no barrier between Doctor and Patient and I think that is a great relationship to have. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Churgin for surgery, specifically Rhinoplasty. She did an amazing job and I could not ask for more. In all honestly I felt like I was dealing with close friends rather than doctors and staff.”

“Dr. Churgin is by far the most talented doctor who has ever treated me. When I made my appointment, I knew that Dr. Churgin was a highly respected board certified plastic surgeon and general surgeon. I was so impressed with Dr. Churgin and her friendly staff on my first visit. I had a myriad of problems with other plastic surgeons who suggested to me injections that were inappropriate for my treatment. Dr. Churgin, within literally a couple of minutes, was able to point out that my prior injections were ineffective. The products that the other doctors were using were inappropriate and not effective for my cosmetic needs. Dr. Churgin discussed with me all the viable products on the market today that she thought would be more effective. I am astonished at the results. I look fantastic for my age. I feel 10 years younger. I look as though I were on a well-rested vacation.

A MIRACLE WORKER!

“In April, 2010, I was hit by a car while I was working. I went to the local emergency room where the doctors determined that I broke my nose. Additionally, I had a great deal of pain because I also had lacerations to my forehead. The doctors determined that I needed the attention of a plastic surgeon. Fortunately for me, Dr. Churgin was the plastic surgeon on call that day. She examined me and told me exactly how she would treat the problems and what I could expect. I was extremely impressed with the fact that Dr. Churgin did not keep me waiting. She showed up moments after the hospital called her to come in to see me. Dr. Churgin did the surgery and my results were even much better than promised. The surgery she did in restoring my nose was unbelievable. People who knew me before the accident told me i never looked better and the job was so natural looking, that if I hadn’t told them I had plastic surgery, the thought would never have occurred to them. This is exactly how I always envisioned my nose to look. I was so pleased with the care I received that I had Dr. Churgin do a chin implant on me to correct a problem from years back. Again, the results were spectacular. I now look better than I ever did and what ‘s just as important, I don’t look as though a plastic surgeon had ever touched me. Of course, the reason for seeing a particular doctor is for his or her expertise, but I must say that Dr. Churgin’s staff, like Dr. Churgin herself, is first-class all the way. They are accommodating, courteous, knowledgable, and professional. I recommend Dr. Churgin to anyone who wants to consult a caring, expert cosmetic surgeon. God bless you. .”

“First and Foremost I want to say thank you for what EVERYONE in the office did for me. They treated me like family. They are professional and are on top of EVERYTHING! Anything I needed for my surgery (breast reduction) they made sure I had. My insurance was being a pain, but that did not stop the office from getting what I needed. They fought for my procedure, it was a necessity. I am 5′ and had DD’s. That was just not working for me. I had waited years for this, of other doctors saying “NO” “it’s a waste of time” can you believe that! Mrs. Churgin and crew was able to have this procedure done within 4 months. I’m in the healing process as of now, but so far everything is going well. Dr. Churgin is very knowledgeable about her work, She knows what she is doing. Her hands are like magic. The nurses even ran to help my sister after she passed out from seeing the blood draining from my incisions! ( this was post surgery) They put her on an upright stretcher and gave her some apple juice. They are very kind and caring. They even called to make sure everything was ok, not once but like three times! The only time I had a doctors office call me after a visit was for a payment.

DR. CHURGIN IS BRILLIANT, CONFIDENT AND HONEST

“My liquid face lift has made me look and feel at least 10 years younger. I have shopped around for some time looking for a doctor to successfully recommend the right injections for my face. I have had botox,Perlane fillers,and juverderm injections, to name a few. I have spent a small fortune over some time on facial rejuvenation. Several of my friends switched to Dr. Churgin who is a Plastic Surgeon, from the doctors we were going to that were Dermatologists. The difference is remarkable. Dr. Churgin told me about products and procedures I have never heard of before my consultation with her. The Education that I received from her during my 1 hour consult was unbelievable. The most impressive moment was when Dr. Churgin looked me straight in the face and said “I would like for you to sleep on what we just discussed and should you decide to go ahead with the treatment, I will apply my consult fee to Any care and treatment I do for you. To tell you the truth I was blown away with her integrity. Several days later I did have the combination of injections Dr. Churgin recommend. It has been a couple of months now and everyone thinks I had a face lift or a very long stress free vacation. I have never received as many wonderful compliments as to how great I look in the past ten years. Doctor Churgin has earned my trust and I certainly have the utmost respect for her and her highly professional staff, they were terrific to work with, they treated me like a very good friend.”

VERY PLEASED, EXCELLENT SERVICE

“I am just returning from my first appointment with Dr Churgin today. I am extremely pleased and thankful to have found a great doctor who spends the time going over every question, option and so willing to help you. Attention to detail, and I felt treated so kindly and cared for, which is very rare to find as the majority of other doctors hardly give you the time or listened to your concerns. Not Doctor Churgin. She is really unique, professional, and so humble. The staff is also very pleasant and welcoming. One feels treated like being around family. Great service at together, both professionally and on customer attention.”

AMAZING IN EVERY SINGLE WAY!

“Dr. Churgin is not only the most informative doctor but also the most incredible! I have been to her office for many injuries. I recently had a fracture in my right metacarpel 1 and with her extensive knowledge in multiple surgeries, she was able to diagnose it right away. She even went as far as referring me to a nearby doctor for blood work and other lab tests to make sure it was not just another broken bone. Her bedside manner is truly comforting and acts as more of a friend than a doctor. Another injury I sustained occurred last year around the end of February. While on vacation I suffered from sebaceous cysts the size of grapes, which started in my right ear lobe and quickly spread to the left ear lobe as well. Upon my return from my vacation I went to the emergency room to get them drained. I was given a doctor out of my network and when she tried to continue to treat me the bills piled up, I was referred to Dr. Churgin by a friend and couldn’t have been more relieved. Not only was she an in network doctor but, she was a fantastic person. She took care of my cysts and changed my antibiotic to a much more effective one. She also scheduled me for many more office visits than I probably needed to make sure the scars were healing as they should. She is a fantastic plastic surgeon and it shows because if you saw my ears now, you would never even know there were once giant cysts inside it. As a referral from me, my father required her services as well. He had cut this thumb and when he went to the ER the doctor available did a worse job stitching the wound than a blindfolded 4 year old. I told him to schedule an appointment with Dr. Churgin and he did. She removed his stitches and changed his antibiotic as well as going as far as again culturing the wound to make sure the antibiotic was appropriate. The wait time (if you can even call it that) in the office is ridiculously fast. I think the longest time I waited before seeing the doctor was about 7 minutes. I’ve never had any issues there and the staff at the front desk are amazing as well. Everyone is delightful when you walk in and very anal about organization. If anyone is looking for an amazing doctor with a great bedside manner (which is hard to find these days) and a doctor who is multi-talented and trained in multiple surgeries, look no further! Dr. Churgin is your ticket to a great recovery!”

DR. CHURGIN IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY SKILLED DOCTOR

“Dr. Churgin is an extraordinarily skilled doctor who is compassionate and caring. As a result of a very serious illness, I required many operations over a period of seven months . Without the skillful care provided by Dr. Churgin, I would not have survived. .Dr. Churgin would always take the time to explain the upcoming procedure, She would answer any questions, put aside any fears and always in a positive and upbeat demeanor. I highly recommend Dr. Churgin.”

DR. CHURGIN IS THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS

“I live in Manhattan, but while visiting a friend in Staten Island I broke my nose and was rushed to the local hospital there. A Staten Island plastic surgeon was brought in to stitch me up, and after visiting an NYU ENT the next morning the general consensus was that everything was fine and I should just let the healing take its course… Luckily a week later, after doing a relatively extensive search online for reputable in-network Manhattan plastic surgeons, I had the good sense to contact Dr. Churgin for the stitch removal. Her credentials are truly superb, and I was blown away by the level of attentiveness, knowledge, insight and care that I’ve received ever since the first consultation. A very visible bump on the top of my bridge had become apparent once the swelling in my nose went down, but Dr. Churgin never once tried to sway me in a certain course of action. Rather, she laid out the facts for me on both sides, and ultimately I am very pleased with my decision to go through with the procedure. Dr. Churgin always had my best interest at heart and quite frankly I could not disagree more with the below negative review, as I know that my insurance hardly pays her what other out-of-network patients’ would. She and her entire administrative team far exceeded my expectations in service and have treated me like family from start to finish. Outstanding plastic surgeon, outstanding team, highly recommended.”

EXCELLENT SURGEON

“Wonderful experience with Dr. Churgin. Fell and had quite a bit of damage to my face, primarily the nose. The hospital ER didn’t seem overly concerned about the damage. Dr. Churgin reviewed the records and confirmed that my nose was indeed broken. Had surgery approximately a week later after abrasions had mostly healed and my nose now looks exactly as it did before. Very professional and caring. Follow up care was delayed by Hurricane Sandy and she made sure she got to the LI office to see me as soon as she could. I would definitely recommend Dr. Churgin if anyone I knew was in need of a plastic surgeon.

POLITE AND COURTEOUS STAFF

“I had a keloid on my side burns, but my first excision with a different surgeon failed and my keloid returned and even bigger than before. I decided to do my homework and research a better surgeon. I had booked about 5 surgeons to see but after meeting with Dr Churgin, I was certain she was going to do a great job. She had general knowledge about the procedure. She did operate and had a scar revision. The follow up has been great, not only did I have my pretty face and smile restored, I also got back my confidence. She has polite and courteous staff. I will definitely recommend her”

SATISFIED PATIENT

“I came to see Dr. Churgin after a work related injury to my face. She was compassionate and thorough. She explained the entire procedure to me as well as the entire course of treatment. I felt extremely comfortable with Dr. Churgin and her entire office staff. I was referred to Dr. Churgin by my primary physician and told me that Dr. Churgin is one of the only Board Certified Plastic Surgeons and Board Certified General Surgeons that accepts Worker’s Compensation Insurance. I am a union carpenter and I would recommend Dr. Churgin to any of my coworker, family and friends. I was so grateful that she was able to take care of me.”

PROFESSIONAL, TALENTED AND CARING

“Dr. Churgin has been my plastic surgeon since Jan. 2012. She performed my initial surgery and now we are in the process of prepping for reconstructive surgery due to breast cancer. She is a dedicated, skilled, warm, knowledgeable surgeon. I feel confident in her abilities and am pleased with my results so far. We have several months to go and I fully place my trust in her expertise.”

SOMEONE WHO REALLY CARES

“I went to see Dr. Churgin for a second opinion after consulting with another well-known and highly respected plastic surgeon. That doctor was in and out of the examination room in minutes and, though he smiled and acted like he really cared, I still felt like a number. Dr. Churgin took the time to talk with me, evaluate the damage to my nose, and explain what the problems were and how she intended to correct them. I felt like she genuinely cared about helping me. My trust was not misplaced. When the bandages came off my nose was nice and straight and I could breathe through both nostrils once again. Now that the swelling has subsided I have my old nose back and I couldn’t be happier. The operation, though tricky, was a complete success and I was back to work in a week. I can’t recommend her enough and I hope she never gets jaded and loses sight of why she became a surgeon in the first place, to help people. The world is full of doctors that are in it for the $$$. It is unfortunate that there aren’t as many that genuinely care and want to help others the way Dr. Churgin does.”

I ABSOLUTELY WOULD RECOMMEND DR. CHURGIN

“My niece is a physician who recommended me to Dr. Churgin so that she could perform my facelift. She made me feel so comfortable. Dr. Churgin explained everything to me. I had my surgery 1 year ago and I am extremely happy with my results. I have been told that I look 15 years younger. Dr. Churgin was the only plastic surgeon who asked me for pictures of the way I looked from the past decade. I brought her photos of my 25th wedding anniversary and it is amazing how Dr. Churgin made me look younger than I did then. Today I visited Dr. Churgin for my 1 year checkup and she was so concerned about my well being just as she was a year ago when I had my surgery. I absolutely would recommend Dr. Churgin to be in the publication called Castle Connolly Top Doctors.”

THE BEST!

“I first met Dr. Churgin when she was completing a fellowship at Eye & Ear. She performed a facial rejuvenation procedure on me with amazing results. She has an incredible aesthetic and is also very solicitous to the needs of her patients. Subsequently, I have been going to Dr. Churgin for botox and filler procedures. She does absolutely beautiful work and I don’t even feel any pain! She is always up-to-date on the latest trends and products and takes the time to answer my questions and concerns.I live in NYC where plastic surgeons are top of the line. I choose to go to Dr. Churgin exclusively due to the personalized care that I receive, as well as the amazing results that I get.Thank you, Dr. Churgin!”
