Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Breast Cancer journey
I have been on an almost two year journey to rid my body of breast cancer and move through reconstruction. I reside in a smaller community in Florida, and the competency of my original team was brought into question when I was under going reconstruction. I contracted a MRSA infection and during an emergent surgery, the surgeon 'appeared' to use an 'ice cream scoop' to remove the breast tissue. I was SO deformed. I didn't like looking at myself. I didn't want to go out and be around anyone.I found Dr. Wise and The New Orleans Surgical Hospital via a reference of someone that knows him. I made the flight arrangements to go to NOLA and visit Dr. Wise. Fast forward about 6 months now, not ONLY did Dr. Wise 'give me my life back' but he was empathetic and understanding throughout the process! I had the Deep Flap Reconstruction and two 'touch ups' and I'm happy to say I look human and so happy with my body! I might even put on a bathing suit this summer! Thank you Dr. Wise!

Outstanding surgeon!
I am currently recovering from bi-lateral mastectomy and recently completed stage 1 and 2 DIEP flap breast reconstruction. I chose to have my procedure done at CRBS and chose Dr. Wise as my surgeon. I’m in awe of his work and my new body! I’m so happy!! NO ONE can tell I had a double mastectomy! Perfectly natural appearing breasts and virtually invisible scars. The silver lining in my cancer journey was finding this hospital and their ultra talented doctors. I feel like I have a new lease on life at 51. My eternal thanks to Dr. Wise and staff!

Dr. Wise just recently treated me for breast cancer. He was excellent! He listened to me and took the time before surgery to educate me on the procedure and what to expect post-op. The outcome from surgery has been positive, safe, and exceptional. I highly recommend him and I am very thankful he was my doctor. Thank-you Dr. Wise!

Bad guy not a good surgeon. Was bleeding internally 5 hours in pain b4 he went back in and fixed it. Incisions looks like he had the hiccups! Canceled phase 2 after we had packed and getting ready to go to airport! Lost airfare. Seems rushed at all times. Insesative, fake and arrogant,. Pick another Doctor
