The worst so called plastic surgeon EVER!!!! I wouldn’t send my worst enemy to him! He not only ruined my body, he ruined me in general! Someday if i get the money hopefully my body will be fixed , but the emotional scars of what this MONSTER left me with will NEVER heal EVER!!! We all want plastic surgery to feel better about ourselves that’s the reason for any procedure we get! But to be left with a body that’s butchered and a brain that can’t get this monster out of your head and have nightmares every single night is the biggest form of mental illness,PTSD i can’t even explain!! Please do not let what happened to me happen to you!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Shektman for approximately a year years now. Since becoming a patient, I have only known professionalism, sincerity and experienced the utmost of care, not only from Dr. Shektman, but from his staff as well. Dr. Shektman has a wonderful disposition that puts me at ease during every visit. Dr. Shektman patience and compassion, diligence, energy and sense of humor makes knowing him enjoyable. He truly cares about me, my concerns, and applies his years of practicing medicine to making me feel more confident than when I first walked into his office. I would unequivocally recommend Dr. Shektman to anyone needing a medical professional that they can depend on.

Dr. Shektman left me with permanent nerve damage in the right side of my face. After telling him that I was in so much pain I was constantly ignored. He did not give me the aftercare I needed. Today I have constant pain every day that will "never" go away. I will never recommend him.

My experience with Dr.Shektman was amazing. Before speaking with him at my consultation, I wasn’t planning on making an appointment. Afterwards I booked immediately because he was so honest and blunt. Surgery day 3 weeks later was a breeze - I was in and out within an hour-hour and a half. His work is amazing and I get compliments on my new breasts all the time!! Highly recommend him.
