Testi "I am a breast cancer survivor and a patient of Dr. Vartivarian's. He made my struggle with chemotherapy and recovery the brightest part of each day. He and Rachel, are the some of the most personable, caring people in the medical field that I have dealt with, and I have dealt with quite a few through my battle with breast cancer. He did a fantastic job on my reconstruction and I couldn't be happier. I love both of them!"

Testi "Dr. Vartivarian was reccommended to me by a highly respected dermatologist located in the San Fernando Valley. I have been a patient of Dr. Vartivarians for the past 10 years. I had both upper lid and lower lid eye surgery 10 years ago. I am still very pleased with the results. Recently I had surgery to improve the look of my neck. This surgery was a success as well. My daughter had breast reduction surgery eight years ago. The results were everything she hoped for. The pre-op, surgery, and post-op care in each procedure were of the highest professional caliber, as well as office staff, anesthesiologist, and surgical nurse. I could not have been in better "hands"."
