I'm looking to see a breast surgeon. Can anyone recommend a specialist at Mayo Clinic who does great work? I'd want them to perform a reduction—also, how long is the wait for an initial consultation and the actual procedure??

Sophia Hayes10 said:Can someone suggest a decent dentist in West LA or maybe near San Jose? I don't mind going private, but could you give me a heads-up on prices? I have zero clue how this works. Like, what's the damage just for a tooth extraction?

My pick:
Ivana Kožulj dr.dent.med in San Jose. Just look her up on Google Maps or find her on Facebook under "Ivana Kožulj dental clinic"

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I need to find somewhere that offers quick, high-quality service at a reasonable price—and ideally as soon as possible, since I don't live in the local area here in the city:

- chest X-ray
- complete blood count, plus liver and kidney function tests???????????

Thanks in advance!!!

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a solid dentist over in San Antonio? I’ve been living here for years now, so I really don't feel like driving all the way out to 62 miles my current guy just to get things done.
Thanks so much!

Anyone know a solid orthodontist in Chicago who takes insurance? I guess I need someone decent. My bottom teeth are all crowded, but the real nightmare is my crossbite—you can actually see how messed up my jawline looks because of it.
Also, any idea what the damage would be? I have supplemental coverage, but since I'm an adult, I assume I'm paying most of it myself...

I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I need to get some stuff done ASAP—fast, high quality, and won't break the bank (and since I'm not from the local area, I don't really know my way around):

- chest X-ray
- blood work, specifically liver and kidney function tests???????????

Thanks in advance!!!

You could try Breyer Labs, or just pay up at the Billings clinic over on Kings Street—I think they have walk-in hours for things like blood work and those liver/kidney panels. Otherwise, you might have to head to the ER or one of those infectious disease clinics.

Hey everyone!

I’d definitely suggest Maja Jagodić-Štimac. I've been going there for years and I'm so happy with them—the doctors are all amazing, the office is top-tier, and everything is just 5+ stars. She did my implants and I even went back for a redo 😁 😁 😁

Does anyone have a solid recommendation for a decent GP in Miami? Ideally somewhere downtown, near Back Bay, or over by Lucas.

Not looking for anything fancy or high-end, just someone competent who actually knows what they're doing...🙂

Greetings and salutations!
I find myself in need of a little guidance regarding a recommendation for a wonderful social gynecologist practicing within the vicinity of the outskirts of New York City or perhaps over in Brooklyn..🙏

Does anyone know a dentist in Brooklyn who accepts Medicare? Ideally someone taking new patients—and if you have a ballpark figure for what they charge for a standard white filling, let me know.

Thanks!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a solid private dentist in Los Angeles?? I’m looking to get some veneers done, so I really need someone who actually knows what they’re doing.

Hey everyone...
So, I’ve been on the hunt for a decent dentist lately. Personally, I’m a total wimp when it comes to dental work—going to the dentist has always been my absolute worst nightmare. Since I know plenty of people feel the exact same way, I figured I’d pass along a recommendation for Dr. Motl.
The woman is brilliant. She’s gentle, walks you through everything, actually has patience, and genuinely puts in the effort. It’s a private practice, but looking at her rates, she’s quite affordable compared to others out there. She works with you on the terms.
More importantly, for the first time ever, I don't dread the appointment or feel physically sick just thinking about it. Good luck to everyone out there. Peace.
My warm recommendation: Melina Motl, 22nd Street, phone is 0993094567

I would appreciate it if someone could send me a private message with recommendations for a high-quality private gastroenterologist in the Washington, D.C. area. Thank you!

Hey, I’m hanging out in Savannah right now and was wondering if anyone here has dealt with that orthodontist, Dr. Percač? Is he actually any good?

If you’ve been to his office—I think he might have a spot over in Akron too, if I'm seeing that right—could you drop a comment here or just shoot me a DM?

Thanks 🙂

So, I’m looking to get my breasts checked out, and I was wondering if anyone could point me toward some reliable specialists who actually know their stuff? Ideally, I’d love to find someone located over in the West Side or maybe somewhere in the downtown area, and—this is the big one—does anyone know if they accept insurance referrals so I don't have to pay out of pocket?
The other day, I happened to catch a glimpse of a dermatology and sexual health clinic over at the local health center in Vrapče (run by Vera Wang), and it got me thinking... has anyone here actually dealt with them before? I did a little digging online, and some sites claim it's just a private practice, so I'm really curious if they actually take those standard insurance referrals or if you're stuck footing the whole bill yourself.

Thanks so much in advance!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a solid dermatologist who specializes in facial laser treatments around Miami?
I’ve never actually gone through anything like this before, so I’m feeling a little bit nervous about trying it out...

Bringing this topic back from the dead...

So, look—my guy is dealing with these chronic lower back issues. It’s like some bone or muscle just shifts out of place and pinches a nerve. When it hits, he starts with localized pain right above the hips, but then—boom—it radiates all the way down his leg. He ends up with this literal line of agony stretching from his thigh back up to his spine.

He’s been through the whole ringer—doctors, MRIs, you name it. But honestly? Most doctors just hand him a prescription and call it a day because they say surgery isn't an option for his specific situation.

He actually got lucky once and found a specialist who could actually fix the alignment, but there's a catch: the doc lives in Germany and only swings by Canada once or twice a year. The guy is incredible, truly, but life happens. After the doctor resets his back, my guy can't stay still for ten days—partly because of work and partly because he’s just being reckless—so he never gives the area time to actually "set." Because of that, the whole damn thing relapses two or three times a year.

Long story short, we're back at square one. The doctor won't be back until summer, the pain is absolutely brutal, and those painkillers are basically wrecking his kidneys... so yeah, we're in a bad spot. I'm looking for a legit, tried-and-true chiropractor in Chicago. And please, spare me the scammers or those "miracle workers" who have no business touching a spine—we have plenty of those around here. My own father went to one of those hacks slightly hunched over and walked out doubled over. Not happening.

I need someone who actually knows how to realign the entire spine, release that pinched nerve, and sort out the surrounding mess...

😍😁 — Sorry if this post seems a bit messy or unpolished, but this is serious stuff.

Also, if anyone has a reliable chiropractor's number or even just a rough idea of what a session costs, I'd really appreciate it.

Rachel Ruiz20 said:Dr. Susan Rice’s Dermatology Clinic
Located on 4a Fijanova (right between Central Park and Petrov, near Brooklyn).
Call 2363-339

She’s honestly amazing.
Highly recommend.👍
It’s a private practice—so yeah, expect to pay up.

I’ve seen a ton of dermatologists myself and I’m with you—I’d go with Dr. Gregurić or maybe Dr. Ceković
