1 Review on “Dr Ethan Larson - Larson Plastic Surgery”
I took my daughter to Dr Larson for lipdema surgery. He was beyond fabulous. My daughter had two surgeries with Dr Larson and he was, patient, kind, professional, compassionate and very available. He is a perfectionist. His work is beautiful.She had 4 surgeries prior to Dr Larson with a cosmetic surgeon, not plastic surgeon and it wasn’t a good experience. Dr Larson made these surgeries so much more tolerable. He is a wealth of information, always keeping up with the latest of treatments. Also, every staff member was the friendliest and most compassionate that I had ever experienced. We cried when we left after the last post op appointment. Saying that we will miss Dr Larson and the staff is an understatement, they treat you like family .Dr Larson also is colleagues of Dr Karen Herbst, who we were able to meet with, and she is another expert in the field . Lipedema is her jam! She is a respected endocrinologist and we feel that Larson and Herbst are a dream team in lipedema treatment. I would highly recommend travel to Tucson Arizona to consult and be treated by Dr Larson.
