Plastic Surgery Institute of Washington

I have had several surgeries preformed by Dr Friedman. I have always been thrilled with the results. I found him accessible, caring and responsive to my care. The staff is professional and knowledge.

After a few consultations with other surgeons, Dr. Friedman's genuine care and passion to improve people's lives is what caught my attention. I had my tummy tuck surgery in 2019. Dr. Friedman's care has been beyond expectations with follow-up visits included in the price until we were both satisfied with the results. I am very happy with the surgery and the recovery was very manageable.

PSIW is a wonderful practice. From reception, consultation, surgery, and follow-up, my whole experience was great. I highly recommend Dr. Forman. His bedside manner, surgical skills, patient education & communication are excellent! And special thanks to all of the staff! (I also love that this practice is truly paperless!)

I learned about PSIW through my daughter and have really loved the results I've gotten with Marcia for botox and fillers. They are good listeners and make sure you're satisfied. Looking forward to my next visit in a few months.

Ten years after my initial consult and surgery I am still referring patients to Plastic Surgery Institute of Washington. I cannot say enough good things from consult to insurance to surgery and care after. Dr. Foreman and his crew are all 5/5. The compassion, care and overall vision of this team are consistently above par. I look forward to my next consult and skin care procedures. You cannot go wrong with this group!

If you ever come to PSIW you must book an appointment with Sivan. She has been treating my skin for almost a year and my skin is so much much clear. I been in many places trying to get rid off my acne scars, pores, pigmentation and acne but the only one that actually helped me and gave me an everyday regimen for my skin was Sivan. She is amazing!

Dr. Forman and his team are top-notch professionals who treat you with the utmost respect, professionalism and care. Each appointment started on time, his team of nurses were kind, professional, caring and helpful. Dr. Forman is a master at what he does surgically-- but unlike many surgeons and specialists I have encountered, exhibits compassion and empathy for his patients in a way that makes you feel cared for body, mind and spirit. My surgical experience with Dr. Forman was 5-star from start to finish, and I would trust him and his staff to treat any of my loved ones with the same 5-star care.

I had a facelift and an eye lift with Dr Friedman in March. I was really nervous to have the operation. However, Dr Friedman was very reassuring and would say to me that he "was not nervous." His entire office was kind and thoughtful. Anytime I had a question for Dr Friedman he would answer me as soon as possible and never made me feel that my questions were not important.

The day of the operation when I was receiving the anesthetic, Dr Friedman held my hand and was calm and again very reassuring. I woke up, which seemed like five minutes, and felt great. The first two night I was sore, but not as sore as I thought I would be. By the third day, just as Dr Friedman said, I just took tylenol. Now, two months later, I feel great, a lot of the swelling has gone down, and I couldn't be happier. I would definitely recommend Dr Friedman.

I am a month post-op from an extended abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and extended mastopexy (breast lift, no augmentation) with Dr. Forman. He was one of four plastic surgeons in the DC area that I met with to adjust my skin after losing half my body weight. He was far and away my top choice among the surgeons because of his professionalism, skill and openness to answer all of my questions.

Both before and after surgery, he and his staff have always responded quickly and professionally to my concerns and fears. I feel well cared for on every level. I also really appreciate Dr. Forman's honesty and experience related to how to best adjust my multi-layered needs after losing so much weight. After 30 years of stretching my skin and muscles out of shape, Dr. Forman explained what he could do and what may not be possible considering the amount of extra skin that I had and the loss of skin elasticity with age.

His goal was to improve my contours, remove the excess skin and tighten my abdominal muscles. I had hoped to have more areas of my body "fixed" in one surgery to save time. He explained that the more areas my body had to heal at once, the more likely it was to have complications. I decided to trust his experience and I am so glad that I did. Only 4 weeks after surgery, the results are already amazing.

My breasts are wonderful and no longer sag. While I still have some lower abdominal swelling, which is normal, my muscles are tight, the 2+ pounds of extra belly skin is gone and I have a small waist. Dr. Forman's incisions are beautiful and healing flawlessly and he was even able to fix other scarred incisions from past surgeries! Finally, I only have praise for all of his office staff and his team at the Sibley Hospital OR.

They have made the experience easy from pre-op and financial planning to smooth recovery from a long surgery to gentle reassurance from his nurses and assistants. I am so glad that I chose to have surgery with Dr. Forman and plan to have another surgery with him in the future.

Dr. Friedman and associates do great work. They are some of the best at reconstruction in the area. He is one of the few that will use a reconstruction technique without extenders. They don't take anything but Medicare but they are great if you can work it out. Top notch for a reason. Also great staff and lovely facilities.
