“I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Ziai, who performed my reconstructive surgery to close the wound after my Mohs procedure. He was professional, kind, and attentive throughout the entire process. He made me feel comfortable and confident that I was in good hands. The entire office staff was also wonderful! Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and helpful, providing excellent customer service and making the whole experience even better. I truly appreciate Dr. Ziai’s care, expertise, and attention to detail. I’m very grateful for the excellent care I received and would highly recommend Dr. Ziai and his team!”
“Dr. Pollei is the ONLY plastic surgeon I would ever trust! I chose him after personally knowing three of his patients and seeing firsthand the incredible results he achieved with their surgeries. After experiencing his work myself, I can honestly say I am beyond ecstatic with my results! His skill and artistry exceeded my expectations, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. I would recommend Dr. Pollei to anyone and everyone without hesitation. If you're looking for a plastic surgeon you can trust, look no further than Dr. Pollei!”
“Five stars is not enough and an internet review seems to diminish the topic, which is the gratitude I have for Dr. Taylor Pollei and the entire staff at Form MD. Like many have noted on these reviews, I too spent a great deal of time educating myself prior to selecting Dr. Pollei. After narrowing the field greatly and several consultations later, I found a great connection and confidence with Dr. Pollei and was very comfortable with my choice. He was attentive, extremely communicative and patient with all my questions. The results were tailored to enhance my own features, with consideration to maximalize the results without looking like "I had work done". His work is subtle and natural. I came seeking facial rejuvination and damn I look great! Ha! Kidding aside, I am very happy with the results and appreciate the warmth, kindness and professionalism found at every step through the process. The entire staff is great, and I can't thank you all enough for welcoming me and making the experience a perfect fit.”
“From my very first consultation to my final result, my experience with Dr. Pollei and his entire team exceeded every expectation. Everyone in the office was warm, welcoming, professional, and genuinely committed to making me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. One of the things that impressed me most was the amount of time Dr. Pollei spent with me. He carefully explained every aspect of the procedure, answered all of my questions, and made sure I knew exactly what to expect before, during, and after surgery. At no point did I ever feel rushed or like "just another patient." His patience, attention to detail, and willingness to listen gave me complete confidence in my decision. The office itself is beautiful, modern, and equipped with the latest technology, which only reinforced the high standard of care I received. Every member of the staff was knowledgeable, compassionate, and willing to go above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. Choosing a plastic surgeon is an important and very personal decision. There are many excellent surgeons to choose from, but I wholeheartedly encourage anyone considering cosmetic surgery to schedule a consultation with Dr. Pollei before making a final decision. I truly believe you'll be impressed by his expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for his patients. I am incredibly grateful for my experience and couldn't be happier with my results.”
“I first met Dr. Pollei In February 2024. That was my first consultation with him. I liked him immediately and knew that if I moved forward with the surgery that he would be my pick. I did my homework though and had consultations with four other plastic surgeons. None of them made me feel as comfortable as Dr. Pollei. He listened to me very carefully and addressed every concern and question that I had. At that time I just wasn’t ready to move forward. Subsequently, I met with him again two more times in 2025. He was as patient as ever with me as he explained the procedures in depth and what my recovery would look like. This past February I was finally ready to take the next step and booked my surgery for May. I’m now three weeks post surgery and healing very nicely, even better than I expected. I’m looking forward to the next few months as I continue to heal and see my final results. Dr. Pollei and his staff have all been wonderful through my journey. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a passionate and highly skilled plastic surgeon. He is truly a master at his craft.”
