In Their Words

“I flew into Chicago from California to be seen by Dr. Cobbins due to her and Dr. Braithwaite’s phenomenal reputations. She’s truly an expert in her field and makes you feel welcome the moment she walks into the room”
JOHN NIETO · GOOGLE REVIEW
Warmly, I do not recommend at all this office for plastic surgery. I was a patient for over a decade spending thousands and recommending many of their current patients. Recently I had a surgery with Brian. My reason for doing this review is awareness. I find it so important how people take care of people and how aware and good they are at their job. The surgeries done by Brian were far from care. The first which was an awake mini tummy tuck was acceptable and his skill was good. The care he gave and explanation of everything adequate. Do NOT PLEASE EVER get a gluteal fold surgery with this place. They do not perform them enough or care enough to understand its recovery. And especially with complications. I am happy to share alllll the details in why I feel a strong need to share my experience with them but the lack of care and professionalism as well as after care. I sincerely have met incredible plastic surgeons with same pricing yet immense passion for what they do so care and skill and have since have completely different experiences with plastic surgeons. I even gave Lorri Cobbins a chance to amend the offices honestly trauma they caused and she chose not to. I can share every reason and my experience happily with anyone reading this and wishing to understand my experience. I send all blessings but I do not wish for any other human the level of pain and lack of care that was shown from this business. So if you’d like to understand all the story feel free to reach out but please keep searching esp if wishing to have actual surgery: There are skilled, consciously aware, and kind surgeons who do amazing work not even far from them. They are charming so I thought it would ensure care. Please be aware. 🙏💕
I got gynecomastia surgery and liposuction on my midsection back in February 2024 with Dr. Cobbins. She is a nice lady but the results were lackluster. I still have very obvious glands and fat in my chest and my stomach hasnt gone down in any significant way. If you are on the heavier side it's best to find another surgeon.
I am 4 months and 2 days post-op with Dr. Braithwaite, and my results are phenomenal. I truly cannot recommend him enough to anyone considering surgery. I flew to Chicago from the NYC area and was initially apprehensive about traveling for a procedure, but I ultimately chose Dr. Braithwaite because I genuinely felt the value he brings was above and beyond everyone else I researched locally. I arrived in Chicago the day before surgery, had the procedure the following day, and flew back to NYC the next day. Over the weeks and months that followed, I had virtual follow-ups with Dr. Braithwaite to monitor my recovery, and everything went smoothly. Dr. Braithwaite genuinely cared about my results and is a stand-up guy whom I enjoyed speaking with throughout the entire process. Choosing Dr. B was hands down one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
I am one month post-op with Dr. Lorri Cobbins and I could not be happier with the results. Even one day post-op I felt like she had done an incredible job and I knew that it was going to heal just fine. The entire process has been so painless with Dr. Cobbins, and she has put me at ease every step of the way. Her bedside manner is amazing, she's extremely easy to talk to, and she and her staff are extremely attentive and communicative via email. Cannot recommend her and her team enough. If you're considering it, reach out to them!
