Last month, I paid cash upfront to buy the special for 2 vials of Kybella for $800. I got one vial last month and this week, I went there to get my 2nd vial. Initially, I didn't want to pay for treatments ahead of time but Roxana Kern was pushy, which is why I paid $800 cash upfront. In hindsight, I realize that my doubts have been justified. Never again will I prepay for any specials/promos! Once they take your money, it's OVER! NEVER any customers when we were there. Didn't see any scheduled appts in her schedule book either. These 5 star reviews seem to be written by the staff here.

There's an English Bulldog in the office. I'm a HUGE animal lover. Before I came today, I bought him 10 AUTHENTIC BEEF RIB BONES. Very expensive! I washed them very clean about 10 times, wrapped them carefully & kept them overnight in the fridge for freshness. Last time, I asked Kern if I can bring him bones and she said I can bring him "ANYTHING." He was even playing with a BONE last time we were there!

So I brought the bones in today for the dog and Kern did not even look at them, just flicked her hand & condescendingly said "NO NO! Don't give them to him. He's ALLERGIC." Told me to throw them away! She did NOT even say a simple thank you after how thoughtful I've been. I told her I was happy to bring bones for her dog and traveled a LONG way, transferred 2 times on subway while holding the bag of heavy 10 BIG BONES just for her dog. I was surprised but calmly said, why don't you say thank you? Why tell me a different story because you never said he was allergic before. I was just being thoughtful.

Suddenly, she started frowning at me condescendingly, rudely told me that I NEEDED BOTOX in between my eyes! I said I'm old and I do not have much wrinkle in between my eyes and I don't want botox.

I called the front desk woman beforehand a few times last month and also this week and each time, she told me that there is a promo for new patients for 2 vials of Kybella with 1 FREE TOUCH UP 6 weeks later. That is ALL SHE SAID so when my daughter & I mentioned this to Kern when we saw her, she said there was NO such promotion & SCREAMED AT US! She also got in my DAUGHTER'S face up close as if she was about to HIT her, face red, eyes huge, & told her to SHUT UP! I was EXTREMELY shocked!

Even animal mothers attack those who attack their babies. I was RIGHT THERE with my daughter in the same room but she dares SCREAMS at her to "SHUT UP?!" This is sign of a psychotic woman. How dare she yell at my baby? She even told ME to shut up several times!

I said I want my money back and she said she WILL NOT give me my money back. In my HONEST OPINION, she acts like a psychotic nutcase. If you see her, you will notice that she does NOT look like she is in her right mind.

Also, the dog barks SO loudly nonstop. She does not even put him away & lets him stay in the exam room when we're there. That place is run amok! Extremely unprofessional, unsanitary to say the least. It's illegal to keep animals running around like this freely in a doctor's office with patient's around. The dog scratched my daughter & me a couple times, ripped my daughter's pants, but we didn't say anything.

They need to be INVESTIGATED. I don't think Kern even has her doctor's license. She is a fraud. She does not know how to say 'thank you,' 'you're welcome,' 'please,'. This woman is ill-mannered.

I was very happy to bring the bones for the dog. No idea it would turn out like this. Now I cannot trust medspas anymore. It is so sad that some people like Kern cannot truly understand and appreciate people's good hearts & intentions. They are greedy & only care about money. SO dry, cold at heart. Now I understand why some people prefer animals over humans. The owner is WORSE than her dog. Honest opinion, she needs to shut down her office and get treatment for her mental problems.

Suggest you record conversations with her as she WILL tell you a different story! Steer clear of this place! Be careful.

TDr Kerns exceeded my expectations: she is a very caring doctor with a lot of expertise and dedication to her work. I had a fat transfer to my face with Dr Kerns, and more than three weeks after the procedure I am enjoying the results very much. Dr Kerns spent extra time with me during the procedure to make sure that I would enjoy the final results. She also communicated every step to me warning about what I should expect during the procedure. She tried to comfort me after during and after the procedure by offering extra help. Although the procedure was somewhat invasive, due to the special technique that Dr Kerns used, I was able to get back to my normal life after a few days of rest. In addition, after the procedure I used cosmetics that Dr. Kerns designed herself, and it helped me to recover quickly. I enjoyed working with her and will definitely come back for maintenance procedures in the future.
