Reviews of Liposuction, Abdominoplasty & Tummy Tuck Plastic Surgeon Dr. David Berman from Sterling, Virginia (VA)
Thank You Dr. Berman and Staff
"I was a victim in a high profile sexual assault case. Before the assault, I was a very physically active person. I ran, I did weights, I stretched. I worked my body hard. I was very lean and fit.
After the assault, I stopped being me. I was afraid to run, and let someone grab me from behind. I wouldn’t go to the gym, as there were too many men there. I sat on the couch and drank beer and gained weight.
When I finally started exercising again, I shed fifteen pounds, but I kept residual weight on my tummy, hips and thighs. Twelve years after the assault, when the guy was finally arrested and put away for life, I decided I wanted to wipe out every memory of the man who hurt me. That included looking in the mirror and seeing how he left my body.
I approached Dr. Berman and asked for help, as I could not afford to do body sculpting on my own. Dr. Berman graciously helped me, and we started with my tummy and outer thighs. I am starting to see results, and it is not even quite a month yet.
The bulk of my weight is muscle, so I didn’t need to lose weight; I just had to lose the subcutaneous fat. My clothes are fitting better, and I can see my six pack abs again! I am toning up and firming up, and I love it. I will take care of the other problem areas after I pay off these procedures.
I am so thankful to Dr. Berman. He and his staff have been so kind and supportive every step of the way. I couldn’t ask for a better doctor. "

Scared but Extremely Happy :o)
"For anyone who is considering getting this surgery, I encourage you to do so. If possible, I recommend you schedule an appointment with Dr. Berman as I could not imagine having gone to another surgeon. I'm glad I went with my first instinct when choosing him. I reached out to Dr. Berman many times, via-e-mail along with phone calls, prayers etc...I must say, every time I called Dr. Berman, he was quick to respond, he was very assuring, and provided me with the research that backed up his decisions to perform one technique over the other. :o)"

Thanks and Appreciation
"Dear Dr. Berman,
I just wanted to express my thanks and appreciation to you, your office staff (especially Cheryl who answered many, many questions) and the Physicians Surgical Alliance Staff in the help that was given before and after my surgery. Kathy at the Physicians Surgical Alliance clinic couldn't have been nicer. Giving me the history, and the rigid requirements of physicians and staff who work in the clinic. I especially appreciate the follow up calls after my surgery! My tummy tuck was on 8 April 2002, I am on my third week of recovery. Except for the swelling, which I am told will go down, I am thrilled with the results. Each day gets better and better. For me 3 C-Sections, and a hysterectomy totally wrecked havoc on my lower abdomen. I am a physically fit person, working out at least 3-4 times weekly, but no amount of exercise or dieting took care of what mother nature has thrown out. I am totally happy with my decision of having you perform my tummy tuck!
Please feel free to use me as a reference, and again thanks!
Sincerely,
Darien Donahue"

Professionalism
"Dear Dr. Berman,
I am writing to express my gratitude for the professional manner in which you took care of my surgical needs. I am very pleased with my tummy tuck and I am anticipating the results from my hip liposuction.
I have already recommended you to several friends and will continue to do so since you and your staff exemplify professionalism.
Cordially,
Heather Baker"

Thrilled
"Dear Dr. Berman,
I am thrilled with the results from the liposuction and mini-tummy tuck that Dr. Berman performed. Only a couple of weeks after the surgery, I already could see a big difference in the way my clothes fit. Now, at 4 weeks post-surgery, I don't have to struggle with my wardrobe anymore; everything fits so much better. I am also extremely pleased with the care and attention of Dr. Berman and his staff both before and after the surgery. Dr. Berman and his staff very accurately described what to expect after the surgery. Frankly, without their support and encouragement prior to the surgery, I would not have gone through with it! Now, if I had to do it over again, there is no doubt that I would! I am truly so happy! Thank you to Dr. Berman and Cheryl for everything!

Great Results
" I just wanted to thank you performing my Tummy Tuck and Liposuction. It was something my husband and I had been discussing for a long time. After talking to you about it, you made me feel so comfortable about the procedure that I couldn't wait to have it done. Its been about three months since my surgery and my husband and I are both so excited with the results. I had lots of stretch marks on my stomach from giving birth and now they are all gone. I feel like a completely new person and it has given me a lot more self confidence in myself. I can fit into a smaller size and I no longer have a paunch showing when I wear slacks. I can fit into clothes I haven't worn in years. I would recommend this procedure to anyone that wants to have it done.
Thank you so very much,
Cheryl"

Exceptional
"I am finished with my laser treatments and would like to thank you for the wonderful service that you provide. I have been more than satisfied with the laser treatment. After having electrolysis for almost 10 years, it has been a wonderful experience to only have a few visits with laser treatment. Where an electrolysis appointment would take 2 to 3 hours, I am in and out of your office in a half hour.
Your staff is exceptional. Cheryl and Gail are so sweet and friendly. I will continue to recommend you to my friends.

"I found Dr. Berman on ImplantInfo and called him from his page on your site. His work is incredible as well as his bedside manner. He is very honest, which is hard to find these days. And, no matter what time of the day it is, he is always available to answer questions, whether it be by phone or by email. I HIGHLY recommend him."
