I had been researching having a tummy tuck with muscle repair for about five years. I've had excess skin since I had my son in 1993 and no amount of exercise would help and aging didn't help either. I came across Dr. Ladocsi's name in a Facebook group and he came highly recommended. I did have a couple other consultations before going to Dr. Ladocsi but he made me feel comfortable from the start. I had my consultation on May 28, 2021. He answered all my questions and was honest with what my overall results would be. The office Manager Angela in the Midlothian office also made me feel more at ease about making my decision for this surgery. I immediately chose to seal the deal and scheduled my surgery for December 2, 2021 when I would be on vacation. Prior to the day of my surgery, his office made sure that I had everything needed to make my surgery successful from my pain meds, binder information, scar treatment and instructions on how to take care of myself after surgery. On the day of my surgery, I arrived as soon as the facility was open. It was so clean and all the staff made sure that I was very comfortable. I was a little nervous but excited at the same time. The surgery went VERY well and I was back at home by 2 p.m. I did have some minor issues that evening as a result of the pain meds but I was fine by the next day. Dr. Ladocsi and his office staff were readily available by phone when my family called for guidance. They truly cared. My recovery was a little rough the first couple of days but that was to be expected and was explained to me by the staff. I did suffer a seroma as well but Dr. Ladocsi was able to clear it up in no time with meds. His nurse, Allison ,was always a joy to see when I had my follow-up appointments. She helped me with all my questions and recovery needs. I'm now six months into my recovery and my results are AMAZING. Just about all my swelling is gone and my core has never felt tighter. And my scar is coming along very well. I'm so glad that I took this journey with Dr. Ladocsi!


I’ve seen Dr Chen multiple times for consultation on an Explant and each time he attentively listened to my questions and concerns. He made me feel very comfortable and offered to consult with my immunologist to ensure the procedure would be done using only the medications my body could tolerate. He also spent extra time ensuring we had the appropriate aftercare in place, considering I was not a normal case. Dr Chen also performed a breast reduction on my daughter. His nursing staff were always available to answer questions, even after hours and on weekends.</


I had a breast augmentation last year with Dr. Hubert and couldn’t be happier with my results or the practice altogether. Since then, I’ve decided to have laser hair removal as well and am just so pleased with the office staff and procedures, it’s all been a positive experience each time I’ve been in the office. Everyone is so polite and very helpful and informative.


Dr. Aboutanos is incredibly warm & has an amazing bedside manner. She truly cares about her patients. I felt safe knowing I was under her medical care & I am not an easily trusting person when it comes to medical professionals.


Absolutely everyone at Dr. Wornom’s office and surgery center were awesome. They really helped to comfort me in a time of worry. Would definitely recommend them to everyone. Very experienced and professional. Thank you!


“I had been searching for a few years a surgeon who would take my pain away...to the point I could barely walk. I needed medical breast reduction & every Dr I talked to had too many stipulations or conditions, & it seemed like a lost cause. I finally found Richmond Plastic Surgeons & Dr. Wornom & from my 1st consultation he could tell how much pain I was in. My trip began in February & by April the staff was calling me to set everything up for May. While the damage has been done due to time, Dr. Wornom & staff have made everyday life a little easier to deal with. I'm looking forward to the next surgery of making my life better.... & I have a long road ahead of me & I'm glad Dr. Wornom is there to help me. I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon!!!!”


“I was originally referred to Richmond Plastic Surgeons and to Dr. Ladocsi by my dermatologist. From the first contact about two years ago, I have found the nicest and most professional group possible. Communication and scheduling has been perfect. Dr. Ladocsi is the best surgeon and a warm and friendly person. He explains every detail, answers each question thoroughly and has a comforting confidence in his work. From my experiences, you could not hope for a better medical group. My thanks to all of the staff and to my excellent doctor.”


“I received first class care from Dr. Darrin Hubert for a follow on excision for skin cancer. His explanation of the proposed procedure, his attention to detail and his genuine concern for his patient were all at an exceptional level of care. I would recommend him without hesitation.”


“I was referred to RPS by several people. I recently underwent Breast Augmentation surgery with Dr. Aboutanos, and my experience with her and Richmond Plastic Surgeons was simply wonderful. All of the staff and nurses were so welcoming, including Sara, who helped me with all of my questions and concerns towards the financial aspects of the investment. Dr. Aboutanos was very comforting with my initial uncertainty deciding what I wanted, assuring me that she wouldn’t do anything that wouldn’t be a good fit for me, along with recommendations. She gave me information I needed to research and told me to ask all the questions I needed anytime. After months of research, and decision making, I finally came in knowing exactly what I wanted, knowing the right questions to ask, and she made me feel 100% confident in my decision along with expressing her confidence in my surgery. The investment itself was extremely affordable and I am SO HAPPY with my results. Thank you!”


“Love the office on Wilkes. Everyone is friendly. Loved my med spa services [laser] and had botox, and fillers with Dr. Ladocsi 🥰”


“I’m extremely pleased with my experience at Richmond Plastic Surgeons and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a cosmetic surgeon in the Richmond, VA area or beyond. From my first visit, everyone was warm, welcoming, and extremely helpful. Dr. Chen answered all of my questions respectfully and as thoroughly as I needed to feel comfortable. Angie followed up with me multiple times and helped me with every question I had along the way. The day of surgery, Dr. Chen and the surgery center staff helped me be as comfortable as possible, and calmed my nerves and pre-surgery jitters without making me feel self conscious in the least bit. Post procedure, I’ve been very happy with my results and the aftercare has been wonderful. The after hours emergency support line worked flawlessly when I had a concern after surgery. Dr. Aboutanos called me back several times to make sure I was doing well. I highly recommend them and would be happy to work with them again anytime!”


“I had surgery here and I was super nervous about it, but Dr. Hubert is an expert (I had a breast reduction July, 2018). The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I was so happy with the results I cried!”


“Dr Aboutanos is awesome. She is so caring, loving, thoughtful and sweet!! She goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and that you are in excellent hands! Trust me you are!! She does excellent work!! I'm so grateful for her and for her assistant!! Her assistant Amanda is the same way!! Plus they both always ask about my husband and son. Thank you!!😊😊 Even the staff at St. Mary hospital goes above and beyond to give you excellent care too!! Plus they love Dr. Aboutanos too!!”


“Dr. Wornom and the entire staff at Richmond Plastic Surgeons were terrific. I had a cyst removed on my face, and I can't say enough good things about how I was treated, and Dr. Wornom's gentleness and easy conversation put me at ease at all times.”


“Love the staff and Dr. Ladocsi. They have followed me through a life challenge and have been extremely supportive. Always available when I need them.”


“Dr. Aboutanos is so caring and an awesome surgeon. She does not rush you, she answers all your questions and explains in detail what she is going to do. Dr. Aboutanos’ nurse Amanda, is great too. I cannot say enough good things about Dr Aboutanos and Amanda. Thank you both for all your care/help.”


“Dr. Wornom is not only hilarious, but he made me comfortable with the breast reduction process before operation. He knows so much about what he does and he did an AMAZING job on my breast. The scars are healing so fast and so well. His staff was easy to reach with any questions, and they were also welcoming to me during all of my visits! I can’t wait to dress these babies up! ;)”


“Dr. Aboutanos was amazing with my three year old. She removed a cyst in his forehead and was so kind and gentle with him. Amanda on her staff called to check on him the next day. I can’t say enough good things. We are very thankful for them!”


“Dr. Ladocsi is very knowledgeable and professional. He doesn’t waste time, but never makes you feel rushed, or that there’s too many questions. He is honest, and I find that refreshing. He will tell you what would be his best recommendation for you, specific to you, but you have the ultimate decision. I highly recommend.”


“Wonderful experience. The doctor was great. Everyone was so nice and caring. Please recognize Dr. Ladocsi and his nurses.”


“Dr. Aboutanos is amazing! She is compassionate, understanding, patient, kind. I could go on and on. She treated , my daughter with wonderful care. So thankful to have found Dr. Aboutanos, she changed Courtney’s life! Everyone was fantastic!”


“I couldn’t be happier I chose this center and Dr. Chen. Everyone was comforting and made me feel like I was home and ok. Dr. Chen is amazing and an artist with his work. He has the eye to contour and shape and is amazing. I am so pleased with my results after only the first week.”


“Dr. Ladocsi did a great job. I have experienced no pain. The staff were courteous, friendly, and helpful. Thanks for making this easy.”


“Everyone was very nice and professional. I just love them all. Keep up the great work. Please recognize Dr. Stephen Chen.”


“I have already referred many friends to Dr. Ladocsi and they all had a good experience. He has operated on me several times. I love the new facility and the convenience of having surgery performed “in house”. Also, I think the likelihood of infection diminishes since I am not sitting around a bunch of sick people as in the hospital.”


“I have had the best treatment, and results with Dr. Aboutanos and the staff here. I have already told other people how wonderful everyone is here.”


“I felt I was in good hands. Staff was professional, on-top of their game, patient friendly, transferred their feelings of confidence along to their patients. And of course… I am very pleased with the skill and talent of Dr. Hubert.”


“Very pleased with Dr. Hubert’s work. Saw Dr Mason Williams who has since retired, with Dr. Hubert filling in with his expertise and superb knowledge of breast augmentation. Made me feel very confident in my decision for Dr Hubert to perform my surgery. Staff is thorough, professional and comforting.”


“I had an excellent experience with Richmond Plastic Surgeons. I had a breast reduction by Doctor Chen. He and the staff are Awesome. This was in 2009.”


“I love Dr. Ladocsi. He is the most caring and kindest Doctor. His bedside manner is awesome. He listens to what you have to say. He gives you the information and explains it to where you can understand it. If you have had outpatient surgery, he will call you at home that night to check on you to make sure you are OK and not having any problems….this shows you what type of Doctor this is…one that is highly recommended!!!!”


“Dr Ladosci was kind, efficient, and encouraging. I was able to get an appointment scheduled for something that was urgent to me within 36 hours of requesting the appt. He did an excellent job and I would refer him to friends and family.”


“I wanted to express my appreciation to Dr. Aboutanos and her office staff as well as her surgical staff for the wonderful and professional atmosphere that was provided before, during and after my surgery! I will make sure that I tell everyone about you and your office.”


“Dr. Aboutanos is an asset to the medical community. Her level of professionalism was outstanding. I am so satisfied with my results after surgery. She and her staff were outstanding. In knowing that I am a previous cancer patient she eased all of my fears by supporting me from the beginning to the end of my procedure. Dr. Aboutanos has excellent bedside manner. Most important, when I asked for a hug, she did not hesitate. I haven’t had a doctor make me feel this good in a long time. Thank you Dr. Aboutanos. I plan to see you again real soon for another procedure.”


“Dr. Isaac Wornom removed a right axilla lipoma, and I had an excellent experience, with an excellent result. Dr Wornom was very thorough, taking the time to explain everything and answering all my questions. He was kind and caring. His staff was a pleasure to work with. He did a great job!"


“Dr. Wornom did a phenomenal job, executing exactly what I had envisioned! The staff is always so friendly when I come into the office. I’m happy I chose RPS and will continue to go back.”


“I can honestly not say enough great things about this office. Dr. Aboutanos took very good care of our 9-month-old baby girl. We needed to get a bump removed from our daughter’s face to ensure it wasn’t cancerous. Dr. Aboutanos and her entire staff were so patient, nice, and caring. She informed us about the entire process and made me feel extremely comfortable with her. On the day of the surgery, all of the nurses at the hospital raved about how great Dr. Aboutanos was at what she does. I knew I had made the right decision. Right after the procedure, she was the first one to update us and tell us that everything had went perfectly. She ensured we were able to be with our baby girl as soon as the procedure was over, and sure enough - our baby girl was sleeping peacefully and not in any pain. We had our follow up appointment, and everything looks great! Her bumps aren’t cancerous (THANK GOD), and her scarring is very minimal. I have already referred sooo many people to this office and I hope you make the right decision, and make your appointment with Dr. Aboutanos. You won’t regret it! If she can work magic on a 9-month-old tiny face, she will surely do well on you too!”


“The staff are all very friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. Dr. Chen came highly recommended by a close friend and I am so glad I went to him.”


“Great care! Very professional.”


“Everyone in the office is very nice and professional... Dr. Wornom is very caring and professional, knowledgeable, gentle. he takes the time he needs to answer all of your concerns and makes you feel like he cares.”


“Dr. Ladocsi is very kind, soothing and an amazing plastic surgeon. I had a mastectomy and ended up with a more beautiful breast than the original! The office staff are all very accommodating, professional and personable. I could not be happier! I would highly recommend this practice......”


“I had put off removing a mole/cyst from my face for many many years. I was pleasantly surprised at the straight forward approach, professionalism and friendliness of the nurse and doctor who treated me. I would certainly recommend this practice to anyone contemplating this type of procedure.”


“Phenomenal service!!! Highly recommend this office!”


“It was a wonderful experience. It was my 93 year old father that Dr. worked on. Not only did he do a wonderful job but the results were amazing. The office is a pleasure to deal with and to visit.”


“Dr Chen performed blepharoplasty on my husband’s eyes, great job, wonderful bed side manner, quick healing time.”


“STAFF IS GREAT. WAIT TIME VERY REASONABLE”


“Finding Dr. Hubert from Richmond Plastic Surgeons was a god send! He is very detail oriented and covers every question you may (or may not) have. If you have had breast cancer, he is one of the top surgeons in Virginia to see. He gave me my confidence back. All his staff, from his assistant to the receptionists are very concerned and caring. Extremely Clean facility, state of the art methods, I really can't say enough about my experience. Highly recommended!”


“Dr. Wornom did a phenomenal job, executing exactly what I had envisioned! The staff is always so friendly when I come into the office. I’m happy I chose RPS and will continue to go back. ”


“Review for Dr. Lewis Ladocsi, M.D., F.A.C.S. For years I’ve wanted to make changes to my body due to childbirth, hysterectomy, weight gain/loss, and natural aging. I reached out to Richmond Plastic Surgeons based on their reputation and personal recommendations; it was an easy decision. I did my homework on each doctor within the practice, and I selected Dr. Lewis Ladocsi. Based on his medical background, credentials, and most importantly, board-certified in plastic surgery. Dr. Ladocsi was Richmond’s Top Doc/Surgeon several times, most recently in 2016 and again in 2018. During my first appointment, Dr. Ladocsi made me feel very comfortable; he cared about my feelings during the examination and was very discreet. He indeed does have the “best bedside manner” I’ve ever experienced with any doctor. This quality speaks volumes! I’ve used Dr. Ladocsi twice for two different body modifications. He, along with his excellent assistant, Allison, are the best. I would never think of going anywhere else or using anyone other than Dr. Lewis Ladocsi.”


“Absolutely positive experience with Richmond Plastic Surgeons - Dr. Stephen Chen and the staff.”


“What an amazing facility! I have been coming here for years. I am always impressed with the results. Dr. Chen is very experienced and tasteful. I love the services they offer. Also the whole staff is very friendly and make you feel very comfortable! LOVE this place!”


“I really appreciate my first visit and surgery with RPS. I had Dr. Aboutanos as my surgeon. She was so professional and delightful. As a doctor she is so well prepared. As a person she is extremely personable and friendly. The procedure was painless and the outcome couldn’t have been better.”


“Thank you Dr. Aboutanos for taking such terrific care of my son. His eyebrow is healing so well. I can’t imagine it looking any better! We really appreciate your time and expertise!”


“Dr. Aboutanos is always kind, caring and respectful. She is always personal and compassionate. Thank you!”


“Dr. Aboutanos, thanks sooo much for making me look good again.”


“I respect Dr Ladosci as he truly cares about his patients and their health and outcomes first. His main concern is that you are safe to have the procedure. And, secondary, he wants his patients to have realistic expectations of what the results can be. After the procedure has been done, the care and follow up have been great! Other doctors respect him, and also like to work with him. He is very thoughtful, caring and respectful to me as a patient. He is sincere. There have been times I needed to wait, but that is because he cares about his other patients too! And, that is balanced by him working me in when it was necessary. We are all important to him!”


“From the staff to the Surgical Center, they made me, my husband and my son feel very welcomed and appreciated. Dr. Ladocsi is an incredible doctor as well as a person…. Open, honest and very sincere. He is completely dedicated to his work. He is passionate about making sure the end result is what the patient is wanting. So often, doctors tend to be dismissive and focus on their own idea of what the results should be and not the patients wishes. He is diligent in creating a natural-looking appearance for the outcome of the procedure. His dedication to constantly educate himself is a testament to his professionalism, and his desire to have the end result look natural, is a testament to his compassion. He is a master at his trade!!”


“I am hard to impress and do not normally trust rapidly. Dr. Ladocsi was impressive from the first visit and, amazingly, earned my trust at the same time. He is an outstanding professional, is intuitive in deciding how to interact with patients according to their volatile emotional states (mine vacillated greatly due to an unexpected return of breast cancer and the need for bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction). He was exceptional! His calming, positive, supportive approach while maintaining a forward looking focus kept me upbeat. The results: beyond my wildest expectations. I am cancer free, pain free, am not disfigured and have a great deal to be thankful for: and that includes being the patient of this remarkable physician.”


“In 2008, I found myself fast approaching 420 pounds in a continued decade-long struggle with my weight. I was very unhealthy, with a list of co-morbidities that would most likely have resulted in an early exit for me. I knew I needed to change something to be around for my family and decided to have the gastric bypass. The surgery was a success and over the course of 14 months I lost 240 lbs and dropped from a 56 waist to a 36 waist…20 inches!!! Nearly 5 years later I was successful in changing my habits and lifestyle and was able to keep the weight off where so many others had failed. The by product of such massive weight loss was the amount of skin hanging from my stomach. I decided that I needed to explore surgery to remove the skin and fix my abdomen and improve the way my clothes fit. The first surgeon I approached spent 5 minutes with me, told me what I needed and walked out the room. No questions. No discussion. No information other then the surgery he felt I needed. It felt cold and impersonal; almost as if talking to me was an inconvenience to his schedule. That did not set well with me and I decided to seek a second opinion. I then found Dr. Lewis Ladocsi. What a completely different experience from the first doctor! Dr. Ladocsi started by asking about me, my weight loss success, how I had been successful in keeping the weight off, and the overall impact it had on my life. When we discussed the reason for my visit he asked a lot of questions regarding what I was looking for in a surgical result, how much time I was willing to invest in recovery, and what I had in mind as a starting point. Once he understood my story, he began to give me options around procedures, techniques, and answered my multitude of questions around each of those two topics. His warm unassuming manner made me feel very comfortable and right at home. Dr. Ladocsi never pressured me to make a decision but rather gave me options to consider and make my own informed decision. On the day of the surgery he came in after I was prepped to make sure I understood exactly what I was getting ready to do and what I could expect in detail after the surgery as well as assure me that he would be one phone call away when I woke up and got home and began the healing process. The results are fantastic!!! The surgery and subsequent healing have gone exactly as he said and I found the follow up to be refreshing in that I wasn’t treated like a post surgery afterthought; but rather just as important as the day I came in for the consult. If you are looking for a surgeon who cares, is invested, and desires to set the bar for excellence not only in surgical results and outcome but also in patient care and interaction…look no further then Dr. Ladocsi.”


“I cannot say enough nice things about this place. I was referred to Dr. Wornom by my dermatologist for a suspicious lesion and his office was so nice and fit me right in. Turns out it couldn't be taken off in office, I guess it was too big and had to be done under anesthesia. The whole staff was so sweet from start to finish I didn't have to do anything his staff even got the authorization from my insurance and his scheduler scheduled the apt for my lab work and surgery. All I had to do is just show up.”


“Got an appointment the day before I needed one. Dr. Wornom worked to maximize my time and provided the necessary treatment in an efficient manner. He and the nurses were kind and engaging!”


“Dr. Wornom and staff were as nice as I ever had anyone to treat a patient. ’”
