Fears Eased For Breast Reconstruction Surgery
5.0 stars - Written on December 26, 2020I was a little apprehensive when my surgeon first recommended Dr Symbas for my breast reconstruction. I typically choose women for my doctors because I feel they understand my concerns better (being they are women too). However, Dr Symbas put all of my fears to rest. He calmly addressed my issues and made me feel everything would be okay. The staff was also very upbeat and pleasant at each of my visits. I went from large breasts to much smaller ones with minimal issues. My new breasts may be fake but they’re great. Dr Symbas rocks!

Dr. Symbas is an amazing surgeon with friendly, kind and professional bedside manner. He always called me back the same day when I needed to voice concerns or ask questions in the weeks leading up to my surgery. My surgery and healing went well. I am very pleased with the work he did and the results have been life changing (I am 3 months post op). I chose Dr. Symbas because of his 5 Star and absolutely flawless reviews on Heath Grades. The entire office staff at Atlanta Plastic Reconstructive is welcoming, professional and hard working and having the surgery done at Piedmont Hospital was great. I totally recommend Dr. Symbas and am so glad I chose him. I was a 36DD on petite 5’1” frame. The surgery helped my back pain and I am thrilled to be proportional now. The mini abdominoplasty repaired my terrible (4) c-section scar and restored my sculpted tummy. Scars look great.

At Ease Through Cancer Reconstruction Journey
5.0 stars - Written on August 27, 2019Unfortunately diagnosed with breast cancer, I elected to have a double mastectomy with reconstruction. I had interviewed several plastic surgeons, but never felt comfortable moving forward with any of them. Thankfully I was referred to Dr. Symbas. I felt completely at ease during our first consult. He is so easy to talk to! I never felt rushed at any of our appointments. He even gives his patients his cell number! As one of my surgery dates was getting closer, I was getting nervous and emailed him. He took time out of his busy schedule, that same day, to talk to me! He and his PA always leave you with a hug, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my results. Thank you Dr. Symbas for making this difficult time in my life easier!

Most Compassionate Doctor With Unmatched Bedside Manner
5.0 stars - Written on March 25, 2017Dr Symbas is the most compassionate doctor or surgeon I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He is kind and caring, his bedside manner is unparalleled. I had several consultations and he is the ONLY surgeon that spent more than 10 minutes with me. He spent a total of two+ hours with me during two consultations. He took the time to find a perfect solution to meet my needs, he answered every question both my boyfriend and I asked, and he answered them kindly and patiently. We both loved him immediately, and let me tell you, you will love him even more as time goes by. I heard one of his patients say to the receptionist that she would “have to start getting plastic surgery just to see him again, he’s so nice” and she was so right! I told my boyfriend after we left my second post op that I wish he could be my general practitioner. He took the time to quell my fears on surgery day and my results are incredible thus far!

Excellent Bedside Manner And Insurance Advocacy
5.0 stars - Written on March 25, 2017There are not enough good things I can say about Dr. Symbas and his staff. I came to him after I got a recommendation from a family friend and had several frustrating consultations with other plastic surgeons, and was pleasantly surprised with how great my appointment with Dr. Symbas went. He has the best bedside manner of any health care provider I have ever worked with. Not only did he answer my (numerous) questions patiently and kindly, when I asked to call my mom during my pre-op so she could ask him questions as well, he answered her just as graciously. He made me and my family feel very comfortable with the procedure and prepared with outcomes and post-op care. His staff was also phenomenal. They made sure to call or email me almost every other day to make sure I was updated about my case with the insurance. I appreciated this so much. It made me feel like I had advocates that I could trust handling my surgery. Not only are his bedside manner, pre-operative care, and staff excellent, I am beyond elated at the results of my surgery. I’m about 3 weeks post-op now, and I have never been happier with the way I look and the way my back feels. If you are considering this surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Symbas and would absolutely return if I need other procedures.

Exceptional Among Multiple Surgeon Consultations
5.0 stars - Written on March 25, 2016I honestly cannot say enough good things about Dr. Symbas. I consulted with 4 different physicians and, while all of them were knowledgeable and fine surgeons, Dr. Symbas was obviously exceptional. He actually entertained me by consulting with me 2 separate times 6 months apart and gave me just as much time the second time as he did the first. He is excellent at validating concerns and is never rushed. You get the sense that you are the only patient that he will see all day with the way that he carefully addresses every concern and gives educated, yet easily understood responses. It’s a gift. He is clearly compassionate and cares a great deal about his patients. Of all the Doctors I have ever seen (among them, 5 different surgeons) Dr. Symbas is by far #1. He is a true artist, excellent surgeon, and a master at his craft. I am so grateful to have had him handle this delicate and very personal issue for me. The office is very nice and the staff is more than accommodating. The team as a whole is fantastic at Atlanta Plastic and Reconstructive Specialists.

At Ease Within Five Minutes Of Meeting
5.0 stars - Written on March 25, 2016I was upset and very nervous about going to a plastic surgeon, but within five minutes of meeting Dr. Symbas I was at ease. He is friendly, confident, compassionate, and enthusiastic. His knowledge of my procedure was obvious as his education and experience are outstanding, even with that he was quick to explain everything in a way I could easily understand. I honestly feel like his first goal was to always make me feel comfortable. He checked in on me, was always available for questions or concerns, and never seemed hurried or made me feel like I was just another patient. He made a very scary time for me much easier than I ever thought it could be. The office staff and nurses are also extremely nice and compassionate. They are always friendly and easy to work with, you step in the door and you feel welcome. I highly recommend Dr. Symbas and his office.

Insurance-Covered Breast Reduction At Seventeen

Open Friendly New Addition To Practice
5.0 stars - Written on November 4, 2011I am very impressed with Dr. Symbas’s relationship with his patients. He accepts responbility for things that don’t go as planned (appointments, etc.) and is eager to make the patient happy. He is very open and friendly and seems to go out of his way to explain things clearly. He’s new to the practice I go to, but I’m sure he’ll soon have a great following.
