Patient Reviews
Jan 14, 2024
Dr Rao did my breast reduction. While he isn’t a warm and fuzzy kind of guy, if you come prepared with questions he is very thorough about answering them and explaining what to expect. My surgery and aftercare went well and I was very happy with his work! He is a perfectly skilled surgeon, but if you’re looking for a Type A provider, Dr. Rao may be too laid back and quiet for you.
