Vein Center of NOrthJersey Dr Philip Seaver cosmetic treatments, botox, fillers, spider veins, hair removal, cellulite florham pk, New Jersey
The office told me they were a med spa specialising in botox and fillers and they beat other prices in the area. what they don't tell you is that there nurses are doing the fillers but in nj they're not suppose to be. when your there they are also talking you into doing other treatments which cost too much. felt like i was being pressured into doing something i didnt want. i also found out they are not a licensed med spa. be careful!

to Yvette and those reading her false report

I am the owner of the Vein Center of North Jersey in Florham Park. After discovering the report in Ripoffreport.com, I was floored. I have full records of all patients and clients and we have no patient or employee named Yvette from morristown or elsewhere during or since the timeframe this complaint was filed. I assume the individual used a false name. In addition the claim has no basis in fact, and I would challenge 'Yvette' to provide any "evidence" that supports this ludicrous claim.
I am the only one who injects fillers in my office, as and MD is required to do so. I would not have stated that we specialized in botox and fillers since we are primarily a Vein Center. In addition, I have never referred to my business as a spa since a) we are not a spa and b) I take care of medical patients so my office is approved as a medical office/facility.
Coincidentally, a disgruntled employee who lived in or around morristown during that time frame had made threats to put a bad review online to repay me for having to terminate her employment. I highly suspect this may have been the source, directly or indirectly. To my knowledge, I have not had any complaints with merit for the ten years we have been open in NJ. We are members of the BBB with excellent rating. I spend a lot of time with my patients to properly set expectations and explain all options and answer any questions. I consider that necessary so a client can make an informed decision.
I caution anyone reading so called "bad reviews" to consider the origins and lack of supporting evidence in some negative reporting. Thank you to all of my thousands of patients for their kind remarks and constructive comments.

Just for the record, no patient named Yvette has ever had Botox or fillers in
our office so I assume the person who wrote the false accusation is a competitor
or disgruntled former employee.
Here at the Laser & Vein Center of North Jersey we offer an array of cosmetic medical procedures (Botox, Dermal Fillers, Laser Skin Treatments, Laser Hair Removal, SmartLipo) as well as medical procedures for varicose veins and venous insufficiency. Some may categorize the first grouping as "medspa" services, but most of these procedures are done by trained physicians, not by "med spas." In fact many med spas do not have a physician in attendance for any of their procedures. We do not claim to be a Medical Spa and do not want to be a Med Spa. Simply put, we are just so much more! Dr. Seaver has over 25 years of experience as a surgeon and is an expert in treating vascular problems as well as Varicose and Spider veins. He has two board certifications in his areas of expertise and has undergone extensive training in all of the procedures we offer at our clinic. We are licensed and registered with the State, as is required. Our fees are in line with or low, as compared with other comparable facilities.
Although there is a bit of a gray area when it comes to
nurses or physician assistants administering fillers in the State of
New Jersey, it really is irrelevant because Dr. Seaver performs
all of our dermal filler procedures. Simply stated, no nurse or other worker in
our office has ever performed a dermal filler procedure on one of our patients,
no matter how qualified.
In regards to the accusation of pressuring our
patients into doing treatments, that is just not the case. When we meet with
patients in regards to their skin concerns, there are often a number of methods
that we offer to treat their particular issues. We educate the patient and even
inform the patient of alternatives that are not done at our office. For example,
if a patient is concerned with under eye wrinkles, we would suggest a series of
arctic peels or a deeper Micro Laser Peel if appropriate. However, we discuss
fractionated procedures, less invasive procedures available, as well as less
costly pulsed light alternatives. But, to protect the patient's time and
investment it is our responsibility to recommend that the patient compliment
their peels or facial treatments with a series of Botox injections,
fillers and/or a regimen of topical anti-oxidants. There is no ONE solution when
it comes to the battle against sun damage, environmental stresses and aging!!!!!
It often requires a multifaceted approach and yes, procedures with expensive
machines are not inexpensive, but many alternatives can be very affordable
with excellent results.
Patients want to feel better, look better and look younger, even in this bad economy. People who have higher self esteem are more confident and positive in the workplace. What person would not try to improve their self confidence and improve their marketability?
