Dear Dr. Gupta,
I have searched for months trying to find a Thank You card to express my appreciation to you to no avail. So I thank you and God for creating you and wish you and your family and all those dear to you a Merry Christmas and continued success in the future years to come. Most sincerely, forever grateful.

You won't see better as a surgeon:
Dr. Gupta was my surgeon after investigating and almost going thru surgery with another general surgeon for hernia repair. When I realized with insurance benefits and willingness of Dr. Gupta and staff to accomdate a separate financial plan for me to combine cosmetic surgery (tummy tuck) with my need for mulitiple hernia repair plus coverage from my insurance I was thrilled. Dr. Gupta's excellence as a plastic surgeon did not disappoint. Most of all his maticulousness gave me results my friends still keep commenting on how great I look, and they can not believe my confidence. Dr. Gupta was there thru everything, I had minor complications and he was there from beginning to end of my surgery, ensured that my pain was managed, that I was informed of every detail and best of all personally answers emails and calls me on my cell phone with any questions I might have. My before and after photos tell the story...after gastric bypass I had the droopy stomach and unbearable site. I do jazzercise for four years after gastric bypass....lost all my weight but not the sag. Dr. Gupta makes me look like a model. More importantly is his perfection and his true spirituality and care. You feel it the first time you meet him. I am glad I consulted two other doctors. Dr. Gupta exceeded my expectations.

I had seen about 4 plastic surgeons for consults in the past, always leaving with an uneasy feeling. Therefore, for 6 years, I wanted to get cosmetic surgery on an area of my body but never had the confidence in anyone to actually go through with it. Luckily, I met Dr. Gupta when I moved to California and knew after leaving his office from the consult that I was in good hands. He was comforting, professional, thorough, and really made me understand what was going to happen and how I would recover realistically.
I am so thrilled with the results from my surgery and the bedside manner of Dr. Gupta throughout my whole process. He was patient with all my questions, made sure I was comfortable the entire time and was excellent with follow up. I have referred many of my friends to him, which is the highest compliment I can give to him. If I ever decided to get anything else done in the future, he would be the person I would go to - no question.

Dear Dr. Gupta,
I wanted to send you something to show you how much I appreciate what you have done for me. I hope you know how I grateful I am to you and your staff. You have changed my life. Please don’t change the way you practice medicine. It is so comforting to meet a surgeon who is so honest and caring and explains everything as well as you. I saw other surgeons before you, but none of them spent the time you did just talking to me and my husband about our options. Everything was really a blur after I got diagnosed with cancer, but you were a real shining light for me during my nightmare. Now I look and feel whole again thanks to you. May God bless you and your family.

I've had large breasts since i was 11 years old .. Which obviously was creating some major back problems, and huge discomfort! It was always really hard to exercise and work out- due to the pain i would get - from all the weight on my shoulders... My primary Dr. referred me to Dr. Gupta for a breast reduction consultation. I had planned to consult with several plastic surgeons to see my options. But as soon as i met with Dr. Gupta, I knew i didn't have to waste my time to see someone else! Aside from the very impressive photos/portfolio on his website he put my mind at ease. I was barely 20 years old when i had my surgery done, so you can imagine how nervous and worried i was. But i have to say, it was the best decision of my life! I am so happy with the results, and feel amazing! I was very satisfied with the care and catering from himself and his office staff. I will refer everyone to Dr. Gupta!

Dr. Gupta is an awesome surgeon. He has great staff, especially Paulette and Tanette. Very soothing bedside manner and he answered all my questions. Dr. Gupta did my tummy tuck and breast lift and it was the best surgery I have ever had. If you want to get plastic surgery, go see Dr. Gupta - he's the best.
Veronica, Poway
Dr. Gupta is one of the best plastic surgeons in San Diego. I had bad breast surgery by another surgeon who refused to listen to any of my complaints. I was referred to Dr. Gupta by a friend and was very impressed immediately. He put me at ease right away and answered all my questions. Excellent bedside manner. He fixed my breasts with one operation and now they look great. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Cindy, San Diego
Dr. Gupta is everything his reputation says he is. He has the BEST bedside manner of any doctor I have ever seen. He explains EVERYTHING to you about the surgery and answers EVERY question. He is so calm and relaxing from the very first consultation to every follow up appointment. His staff is wonderful. The office is beautiful, I love the waterfall in the reception lobby. My surgery went perfect and I healed great. I can barely even see the scars. Thanks Dr. Gupta, I’m definitely coming back to you for my next surgery.
Cynthia, Del Mar
Dr Gupta is amazing! He did my breast implants and tummy tuck. He took the time to explain everything to me. And then the operation was a huge success! I'll never go to anyone else. Dr Gupta is the best.
Laura, Scripps Ranch
I had breast reduction from Dr. Gupta in Feb. 2007. I am so pleased with his bedside manner, his staff and the incredible job he did on my surgery. I would HIGHLY recommend him!!!
Susan, Oceanside
I had a breast reduction done by Dr Gupta two months ago and he did a perfect job. I have no more back pain and can actually see my feet again. My breasts look amazing. Thanks Dr Gupta for the awesome job you did.
Lisa, San Marcos
Dr. Gupta was the 2nd plastic surgeon that I consulted for my tummy tuck and breast lift/augmentation. I lost over 100 lbs., the old fashioned way and the 1st surgeon I met with treated me awful! He found out I was a long time smoker and saw the amount of skin from the weight loss that needed to be dealt with, and he just lost it! That Dr. made me feel horrible about my body. I finally went to see Dr. Gupta and was terrified I would get the same reaction. I did NOT!! Dr. Gupta was so wonderful and professional. He worked with me to help me quit smoking and assured me that we would have great results. I am 40 yrs old and a mother of 3 and I look fabulous!! Dr. Gupta is amazing! I need to give a huge compliment to his staff and especially the Encinitas Surgery Center! I was treated like a princess at every visit.
Michelle, Ramona
Went to three other surgeons before finding Dr. Gupta, and this is the most profesional office I have found. I am so excited, I had financial issues, and the office worked with me to find the necessary financing. Paulette and the staff are wonderful. Upon checking the website, I found that Dr. Gupta's credentials were outstanding in surgery--both general and cosmetic. I am scheduled in January.
Gayle, Carlsbad
I had multiple abdomen hernias due to previous surgeries. I was supposed to have them fixed by a general surgeon during a laparoscopic procedure by my Ob-gyn. The doctor showed up but never did the surgery because he said the hernias – I think three or four – were too extensive to repair. After seeing three other plastic surgeons, I finally found Dr. Gupta---what a God Send. I looked at www.guptaplasticsurgery.com and knew I had finally found the right doctor. I was glad to see how well qualified he is for reconstructive surgery and hernia repair. He is the best. His team is fantastic. They did all the insurance paperwork and surgical bookings with the hospital and always kept me updated. Dr. Gupta did my surgery and now I feel great. No more hernias. Thanks Dr. Gupta and Paulette.
Georgina, Vista
I absolutely love the results of my breast augmentation and liposuction. I was referred to Dr. Gupta's ex-partner by a friend and consulted with him prior to Dr. Gupta. I wasn't impressed at all with the other doctor. I felt like I was being rushed between patients and he didn't spend enough time discussing the procedure. Not to mention his scheduler, she didn’t have a warm personality at all. I was amazed by the difference in Dr. Gupta's bed-side manner, professionalism and honesty. I know I would have regretted having surgery with the other doctor , especially after reading his reviews on this same site. I'm extremely happy with my decision to have surgery with Dr. Gupta and would recommend him to any one.
Helen, Poway
Dr. Gupta is amazing - professional, caring, skilled considerate. Answers ALL of my questions and I never felt
rushed with them. Every physician in San Diego should take lessons from him.
Danielle, San Diego
I had a breast reduction by Dr. Gupta a few months ago. I was initially referred to a different plastic surgeon by my doctor. That surgeon was terrible. He was only interested in charging me a lot of money for a breast lift and liposuction. He told me insurance wouldn't cover the procedure and that I had to pay for it myself. A friend told me about Dr. Gupta so I asked my doctor to refer me to him. Thank God I did. I can't believe how nice Dr. Gupta is. He spent a lot of time with me to answer all my questions and he worked with me to get my insurance to cover the surgery. I didn't have to pay anything extra. Now I have great looking breasts and almost invisible scars. Ask your doctor to refer you to Dr. Gupta - he is the BEST.
Mary, Del Mar
Dr. Gupta and the team he has behind him are the best! I feel fortunate to be a patient of Dr. Gupta. Due to breast cancer I have been going to Dr. Gupta since this past December. He and his staff help to make you comfortable and relaxed during a stressfull period. He is easy to get a hold of if necessary. Appointments pass quickly with little time in the waiting room.Dr. Gupta is excellent and always appears to look forward to seeing you as you look forward to seeing him and his nice smile.
Sandra, Vista
Dr. Gupta is a wonderful doctor. He is compassionate, caring and extremely skilled. I have nothing but praise for Dr. Gupta. He has always been accessible and responsive to my needs. He has provided excellent care during my post breast cancer reconstruction. I highly recommend him as a surgeon.
Barbara, Oceanside
Dr. Gupta is the best. He did my breast implants and liposuction a few months ago and I love my results. He always had a smile on his face and he always had the time to answer my questions. It was very comforting to know that if I ever needed to talk to him, he was always available on his cell phone, even at night. His office staff are really nice. I'm glad I found such a great plastic surgeon, and I'm not going to go anywhere else.
Mona, Encinitas
I was referred to Dr. Gupta by my dermatologist, to repair my nose following mohs surgery for skin cancer. Dr. Gupta rebuilt my nose, and I am very pleased and relieved with the result. I found Dr. Gupta to be very kind and capable, and he instilled confidence. From the initial consultation, through surgery and post-surgery checkups, he was always prompt, courteous, and most of all highly skilled and professional. I would highly recommend him.
Ellen, San Diego
Dr. Gupta did my breast reconstruction after my double mastectomy. He is a delightful person, with a professional manner which instills confidence. He provides a lengthy print-out explaining what would be involved and what to expect, etc., and is totally open to answering any and all questions. His staff, by the way, is super, knowledgeable, and helpful. AND, the results are fantastic. I couldn't be more pleased with the reconstruction. I highly recommend Dr. Abhay Gupta.
Allie, Escondido
I was quite scared about getting breast reconstruction done, since having a mastectomy 11 yrs before. Dr. Gupta made me feel at ease and he was extremely caring and compassionate also. My husband and I had many questions to ask and Dr. Gupta answered them all in a way we could understand, and most importantly, he did not seem to be in a hurry. He was always pleasant to talk to and even when I had the injections to fill the expander, he would reassure me each time that all was going well. At nearly 60, this was very important to me. For the first part of the reconstruction surgery, Dr. Gupta actually wheeled me into the surgery area... what other doctor would do that?? Dr. Gupta's staff was also the greatest, working around my busy schedule with the foster kids. I would refer anyone to Dr. Gupta. He is the BEST!
Susan, Poway
Dr. Gupta is an excellent doctor. He has always been attentive, responsive and supportive throughout my breast cancer reconstruction. He is available at all times to answer questions and is thorough in providing me with all the information I need to feel secure in my decisions. I highly recommend Dr. Gupta to anyone who would like a caring, kind and knowledgeable physician.
Michele, Carlsbad
I am a nurse at a hospital in San Diego and I also work at a busy surgery center. Over the past few years I have worked with about 25 different plastic surgeons in the operating room. I have to say that Dr. Gupta is the best that I have ever seen in my career. His results are amazing and his hands are truly gifted. He is delightful to work with and is very kind to his patients and all of the staff in the operating room. We all look forward to the days when Dr. Gupta is coming to work in our operating room. When I decide to have plastic surgery, he is definitely the one I am going to.

Dr Gupta is a great doctor and surgeon. I had a LOT of sagging after breast feeding my three kids and I really needed a breast lift. I saw two other doctors before I finally met Dr Gupta. Those other two doctors didn't want to spend any time with me to discuss my questions. They just said hello, examined my breasts and sent me to their office manager to collect payment. Dr Gupta was totally different. He explained EVERYTHING. He answered ALL of my questions. He made me feel so calm and reassured. My surgery was perfect. His staff are amazing. All my postop apointments were so wonderful. I love my results. Thanks Dr Gupta. I am sending all of my friends to Dr Gupta.
Anonymous, San Diego
I was referred to Dr. Gupta for an evaluation for abdominal reconstructive surgery and cosmetic repair as a result of multiple surgeries resulting from a ruptured appendix, subsequent surgical procedures, and multiple hernias. I could not be happier with the result. Dr. Gupta is the consummate medical professional, obtaining the very best result from these procedures. He and his office staff always respected my time, and I was seen at the appointed time. I am not planning on any future procedures with Dr. Gupta, but recognize that future needs may occur, and I would call upon Dr. Gupta' professional services as needed. I have the utmost faith in his expertise, and would offer any level of recommendation to others seeking his level of expertise.
Scott, San Diego
Dr. Gupta is the third plastic surgeon I have used in the San Diego area and I will NEVER look for another. He is caring, skilled, patient... He completed reconstructive breast surgery begun by another doctor earlier this year, as well as some abdominal work. He made really great recommendations for a small amount of additional work he felt would be beneficial, then gave me time to decide. Pre-op explanations were clear and relevant and my entire experience was positive from first visit to all post-ops had to date. My post-surgical pain was well maintained. My results are better than I could have imagined. His office staff is also great to work with. Unfortunately, I have been one of those patients who remembers "one more question" as soon as my appointment is over. They have been unfailingly pleasant and gotten me an answer within moments. Dr. Gupta himself has never hesitated to return to the office or the phone to answer my questions. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND DR GUPTA AND HIS STAFF.
Shirlee, San Marcos
I am very thankful that Dr. Gupta was part of my A-Team during my breast cancer ordeal. At 37, I was diagnosed this spring (2009) and meeting him during the initial consultation, I was assured of my original decision for initial reconstruction with a double mastectomy. He was consistently professional, understanding, accessible and gracious. My second reconstructive phase 2 months later went smoothly and I am quite happy with the results. And equally important, his calm, assuring approach was well-needed in an emotionally-fraught circumstance.
Ellen, San Diego
Dr. Gupta is a very kind, caring, patient and honest doctor. I absolutely love him and his staff. I was referred to him by a friend when I was looking to get a tummy tuck and breast lift. I was pretty nervous during my consultation, but Dr. Gupta made me feel really relaxed with his relaxed demeanor and incredible bedside manner. Dr. Gupta did my surgery a few weeks ago and everything went just like he said it would. It was especially reassuring to be able to reach him on his cell phone if I ever needed to (I didn't). I healed great and my scars are already disappearing. Thanks Dr. Gupta. I'm telling all my friends about you.
Helen, San Diego
Dr. Gupta, since I met you, I have been on quite a journey. Of all the doctors that have cared for me, you have played the largest part. I liked you immediately. You put me at ease at the first visit. I think you are gifted in many ways. A skilled surgeon, an artist - recreating and giving back what was lost. But my favorite gift you have shared with me is your calm strength, quiet confidence and sense of humor. I am a person who struggles with anxiety with anything related to the medical field. It was your sense of calm and confidence that helped quiet my fears. My anxiety has never daunted you a second since the beginning. When I look back now I see it has been a long road. But I also see that I have grown and your role in my journey has helped me immensely. I thank God for you. I know He brought me to just the right doctor for this time in my life. Thank you for your excellent care. And God bless your journey.
Luanne, San Diego
After the damage that was done by having four children, including a set of twins, I finally decided to have an abdominoplasty in order to return to my pre-pregnancy condition. I could not be happier with the results. It has been a year, and I feel wonderful and even now, when I run into people I haven't seen in a while, they are shocked and amazed. Thank You Dr. Gupta!

Dr. Gupta is extremely knowledgeable on the subject of plastic surgery. I saw him for repairs due to breast cancer treatment. He was kind, well versed and answered all of my questions. In many cases he answered the question before I even asked. He was understanding, patient and made my decision easy. He was honest about all the possible outcomes of my surgery, quickly returned calls during my recovery time as well. His staff is very helpful too. I would refer close friends and family to him!
Rose, San Diego

Victoria, Oceanside
Dr. Gupta is an excellent doctor, I would recommend him to anyone and everyone! I am very happy with the results of my reconstructive surgery. During a very difficult time in my life, Dr. Gupta was always kind, compassionate, patient, and knowledgeable! He always took time to address any questions and/or concerns that I had. Thank you Dr. Gupta!
Tina, Ramona
Dr. Gupta, I would just like to say thank you for all you have done for me. You have no idea the impact you have had with my life and future with my family. From the day I first met you, your positive attitude and concern had a great deal to do with my recovery. Because of you I quit smoking and after 40 years I never thought it would hapen. It's been over 2 years now and I'm still happy to be a non-smoker. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. I wish you all the best. You are a terrific doctor. Keep that great smile! God bless you and your family.
Sandra, Vista
LOVE Dr. Gupta and his staff! I will always be a loyal patient to Dr. Gupta! I have been to a big plastic surgery office in La Jolla and I didn't feel any one on one attention while I was there. After going to Dr. Gupta's my experience and my opinion of Plastic surgery offices has completely changed for the better! No other Doc has made me feel so comfortable and welcome. He is extremely professional and the office is so relaxing and beautiful!
Casey, San Diego
Dr. Abhay Gupta and his top-notch staff have my highest recommendation. Dr. Gupta removed cancerous basal cells on my face; the procedure required ten stitches and after two weeks people were making comments like: "You can't even tell," "He did an amazing job." and "What is his name? I'm looking for a plastic surgeon." My daughter, who always says it like it is, thought he did a phenomonal job. And, to show my confidence in him: I would refer her to him. Dr. Gupta's educational background is excellent. (I always read the degrees hanging on the wall), and I am impressed that he supports causes like breast cancer by getting involved himself. Dr. Gupta is soft-spoken, calm and quietly self-confident; he instills confidence in his patients. He answers all questions and answers them directly; I appreciate that. I like his personality and "bedside manner" and his staff nicely complements his dry sense of humor with their compassionate, cheerful and outgoing personalities.
Ann, San Diego
