I went to see Dr Jarrod almost 15 years ago - for laser hair removal. I'm darker skin and he used the IPL laser on me - and burnt me - saying beauty is pain when I tried to stop him. I still have the scars from the burns 15 years later. It's incredible to see him writing about lasers and being an expert on laser technology. I guess he learns from testing on patients. Stay away. Editing this review to respond to the owner's response.
Please stop with the condescending and dismissive tone. I can assure you that I clearly remember the name and face of the doctor that burnt me with the IPL laser that felt like being burnt with a blow torch. I screamed in pain and tried to push his hand away but he continued with the treatment saying "beauty is pain". And when I went to see him with the burns he was completely dismissive, refunded the cost of the treatment, gave me a cream for it - and made it clear it was my problem now. He also had the AUDACITY to say "but you should have less hair now". After burning my skin with scarring that is still present 16+ years later - so you can imagine the severity of the burns. And please note this is already documented since I filed a case with the NY small claims against Dr Jarrod for the pain and scarring he caused due to his negligence. Dr Jarrod sent his lawyer to argue to the court that it was not neglient to use IPL on my darker skin for hair removal and the pain and scarring I suffered as a result of his treatment was not life changing (since it was on my underarms) - and requested the case be dismissed. The judge requested me to present an expert testimony that the burns and scarring I suffered from his treatment was due to neglience. Since I was young at the time I did not want to invest in a lawyer or pay over $2,500 for an expert doctor's testimony. Hence, luckily for Dr Jarrod, he was never held accountable for his actions and was able to completely dismiss the pain from being burnt and permanent scarring he caused me with zero consequences - or remorse. It has absolutely IRRITATED me to read some articles recently with references to him acting as an expert on lasers and claiming that IPL should never be used on darker skin etc. Hence my decision to post this review. As a doctor - first take responsibility for your actions and error in judgement. Second - if you cause injury to a patient try to correct the issue instead of sending a lawyer to intimidate and dismiss the issue. Third - do not trial your technology on patients who have to live with the consequences. I think leaving a poor review is the very least I...
Read moreWhat an amazing experience!!!! Five stars doesnt cut it! Dr. Frank is absolutely amazing and his staff too.
I had a Bodytite Procedure done. Felt very comfortable the entire time. It was painless and very quick. My hubby picked me up after the procedure was done, at the Doctor's request (some patients feel a bit dizzy, i did not). To be honest, i felt so good, i could go back to work right after the procedure! The following day i felt a bit sore. If i had to compare, the pain was more like the muscle pain after a nice workout the day before (which i didnt mind at all). I was back to my regular day routine. This procedure was an absolute dream come true to me. After having 3 kids my body just didnt look the same any more. I tried diets and workouts, but i could never achieve my goal and make my tummy look the way i wanted to. I did loose weight and shaped up many other areas, but my tummy simply did not respond to anything. Regular Lipo was not an option to me. My hectic schedule doesnt allow me for really any down time. That's when Dr. Frank suggested Bodytite. Long story short....BEST DECISION I EVER MADE. BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE FOR MYSELF... words cannot describe how greatful, happy, and amazed i am right now! Thank you PFRANK MD!!! You made my dreams come true!
I cant wait for summer!...
Read moreI booked an appointment for Botox at this office about a month ago. It was my first time receiving Botox ever and I wanted to go somewhere that seemed upscale. I was quoted over $1000 for 3 areas to be treated on my face which I consented to. The nurse and doctor were both very sweet. After financials were discussed and I accepted treatment, the doctor then came back in and asked if I wanted to start with less and re-evaluate in 2 weeks since it was my first time. I told her to do whatever she thought would be best but that I wouldn’t mind coming back for a touch up in 2 weeks if needed. I was then told it would take 4-7 days for results to kick in. I did not notice any aesthetic or functional changes whatsoever even up to my two week follow up appointment. One of the areas they treated was my TMJ, and I was still clenching/grinding just as much as I had been before receiving Botox. I arrived to my two week follow-up appointment and voiced my concerns to the medical assistant then doctor, I was quoted an additional $500 to retreat the masseter. I paid $1000 initially for essentially no results. I will not...
