Dr. Scott Thorne Farber

I cannot recommend Dr Farber and his practice enough. I did a ton of research on surgeons for my breast augmentation with a lift. I am so happy with my results. My experience from start to finish was amazing. Gina, Dr Farber’s patient coordinator, was so helpful and made the experience stress free. The surgery was easier than I expected and my results are even better than I expected. Thank you to Dr Farber and his team!

READ THIS REVIEW IN IT’S ENTIRETY FOR YOUR SAFETY. PICTURES ATTACHED. ? I had a halo lift with Dr Scott T. Farber (Farber Plastic Surgery in Boca Raton, FL) in 10/202. The one concern I had at the time was the fact that he doesn’t have his own operating room. This suggests he is not financially stable to afford his own OR and by performing his surgeries in a hospital he doesn’t have his own “Surgical Team”, he gets what the hospital gives him… not optimal. ? Dr Farber operates at West Boca Medical Center and hospitals are unfavorable to the average healthy patient getting plastic surgery (like me). Hospitals are places where sick people go to get treated (full of bacteria and germs). This is the most expensive place (for surgery) for the patient and least expensive for the doctor. ? My concern/fear became true when a few days after surgery, I developed a mild fever. It turned out to be “Pseudomonas Bacteria” (medical bacteria found in hospitals, specially in breathing tubes,… catheters, etc) which turned into a horrible infection. Pseudomonas has a mortality rate of 18-61%. Dr Farber then (in his office) without local anesthesia open up holes in some areas of the incision (very painful)…within a few days I had to be hospitalized. There I saw an infectious disease doctor and he found the right treatment for me. 3 days later I was sent home with a PIC Line and needed daily home health care (nurses) to administer my antibiotics through the pic line as well as clean and packed the wounds/holes for weeks. At this point my $15,000 surgery turned into over $40,000 in out of pocket expenses (hospitalization, visits to the infectious disease doctor, medications, home health care, wound care supplies, etc) ? through the whole healing process Dr Scott T. Farber told me 2 things: 1. That I should be thankful he is seeing me because other surgeons send patients like me to their primary care doctor. Keep in mind I payed the “big bucks” to him, not my primary care. 2. Not to worry about the scars b/c plastic surgeons do scar revision surgeries all the time and once I healed he (Dr Farber) will fix the scars. ? I kept going to Dr Farber for Botox because I believed he was going to fix my horrible looking incision. after 2 and 1/2 years of healing I brought up the scar revision procedure to Dr Farber b/c for the first time in my life I developed ugly “hypertrophic scars” which happens due to a bad injury and/or trauma. He was very condescending and rude… tried to convince me that they were beautiful scars and I should live with them, that he will not do it! Meanwhile my body looks mutilated. ? now I am in the process of researching board certified plastic surgeons that specialize in revision surgery. ? STAY AWAY FROM DR FARBER, he is always talking about being a 4th generation surgeon as if that made him better than any other surgeon. He has a very big ego and can be rude at times. There are other reviews with patients suffering infections, organ failures and near death experience under the care of Dr Scott T. Farber

After dealing with an issue with multiple doctors for almost 2 years, my new dermatologist referred me to Dr.Farber. He immediately knew what my issue was and how to treat it. I opted to have him take care of my medical issue along with a cosmetic procedure at the same time. During my many visits to his office I am and always was greeted by the nicest and welcoming staff. He put me at ease from the very first appointment and every appointment after. Always being a nervous patient when it comes to surgery again he made me so calm and I've never had an easier time before, during and after surgery. The cosmetic procedure was something I had never thought about doing but I am so happy with the outcome that I can't imagine my life any other way now! I would highly recommend him and already have to several friends!

My experience with Dr Farber was exceptional. He was patient and look the time to answer all of my questions. I was referred by several of my friends who had their breast surgery done with Dr Farber. I am so happy that I chose him. My results are better than I could have imagined!!
