I had the same beyond terrible experience with this Evil so called Plastic Surgeon Dr. Barry Kaplan! He is a hacker, thief and con man!! He costs me thousands of dollars for ruining my breasts and face and now I have to spend thousands to get it all fixed by a true highly recommended plastic surgeon! If you love yourself...Do Not Go to Barry Kaplan the Con Man...Hacker and Thief! This man is a Joke not a True Caring Doctor. Don't waste your time looking at a few photos like I did! God only knows who truly did those few people and he uses those same few photos all the time! Barry Kaplan is Beyond Evil ....Don't Go Near this Con man surgeon!!

A friend of mine, who was considering going to Dr. Kaplan for a breast augmentation, discovered and almost didn't go to him because of it. I am a very satisfied patient of Dr. Kaplan a felt the need to post a rebuttal for those that are considering going to him. I have no ties to the office whatsoever, nor will I ever recieve any type of compensation. I just know how nerve racking it can be to pick the find the best Dr. for a cosmetic proceedure. I do not mean to discount anybody, but I wanted to share my experience in contrast.
Dr Kaplan did my breast augmentation 2 years ago (March of 2012). The whole process was very easy. I felt very comfortable during the consultation. He did mention my curves, but I felt like he would need to evaluate my body and "size me up" to determine the right size implants. I never felt he was inapropriate, and I am kind of a shy person. The pre-op instructions where very simple, don't smoke or take viatamins for x-amount of time before.
I paid the full amount when the surgery was scheduled. I did sign a paper that I believe this report referred to. The paper that I read and then signed and took a copy of, did explain additional charges that could be incurred if the surgery date was changed. It was not simply a reciept, but an agreement to the scheduled surgery time. He does work on a very tight schedule out of two offices. I had to wait almost a month for an opening.
The surgery was done on a Friday afternoon. I walked out of the office as promised, Kaplan personally called that evening to check on me (as he does with all patients). He had me raise my hands over my head, asked some questions etc. He did tell me that my breast looked amazing, but I felt that was a proffesional taking pride in his work... I relaxed all weekend, and I was back to work on Monday. The results where amazing, I could not be happier.
I know 6 other women that have gone to Kaplan for both Breast Augmentations and Lipo Suction/tummi-tuc. Some went to him before and after me. Every single one of them have beautiful results that they are extremely happy with.
You should feel comfortable with your doctor. Go to his free consultation, and if you don't like him, don't use him! I met with two other doctors before him that I did not feel good about.
Another thing I would suggest... If you do not have funds set aside for emergencies, you should probably consider getting yourself in a better financial position before you spend a few thousand dollars on a cosmetic procedure... I wanted b***s for years. I started saving in when I started college. I still waited 2 years after college, until I had a good job, a rainy day fund, and the cash to pay for them.
