What recent reviews say

Five-star reviewers praise Dr. Lista's expertise and staff warmth, but negative reviews spanning years dominate: botched breast augmentations, infections left untreated, 45-minute to 90-minute waits without updates, and a pattern of dismissive behavior during consultations. Several patients report sagging, asymmetry, or uneven scarring months to years post-op, and costs escalate sharply from phone quotes ($14,000) to final bills ($26,555+).

Praised for
  • skilled surgical work for some patients
  • kind and supportive staff
  • transparent advice during consultations
  • caring post-op nurses
Watch-outs
  • long wait times at appointments
  • dismissive or arrogant demeanor
  • botched results and poor scarring
  • lack of post-op support
  • price quotes that jump significantly at consultation

Worth knowing

Most patients praise Dr. Lista and Dr. Austin's technical skill and the team's attentiveness, with many reporting dramatic transformations and smooth recoveries. However, several recent reviews report missed 4-6 month post-op appointments, extreme rippling across multiple patients implanted in the same location, large scars, and unresponsive communication when issues arise after discharge.

The Mississauga Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Clinic: Dr. Michael J. Weinberg

4.0(147)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report smooth procedures and excellent bedside manner, with Dr. Weinberg earning particular praise for explaining options clearly and creating comfort during treatment. Results often exceed expectations, and staff interactions shape the positive experience. However, a significant minority cite substantial problems: long waits at appointments, forgotten in exam rooms, unanswered complaints after botched work, and complaints dismissed post-surgery despite complications including infection and chronic pain. The gap between best and worst experiences is stark. Five-star reviewers consistently mention aesthetic precision and supportive recovery, while those who struggled faced administrative lapses and unaddressed medical concerns. Wait times and follow-up care appear inconsistent across visits, suggesting operational gaps even when clinical skill is strong.
