Richard Rand, MD

Edited for clarity: I had been a patient of Dr. Rands for years. He originally tried to correct a disfigurement. After two surgeries, I still have one breast more lopsided then the other. I did not cancel surgeries. I may have missed appointments because I was living 4 hours away. But finally I decided not to go back, and let him try for a third time. I think there are better options out there. I believe people deserve to know truths. No matter how humiliating some people may think they are to the public.

I am only 1 day post op so this review isn’t regarding my results, as I don’t know them yet. However, my experience with Dr. Rand and his staff as I prepared for surgery was nothing short of amazing. They were very professional and patient. What impressed me even more was the fact that Dr. Rand called my husband HIMSELF FROM HOME the evening of my surgery and invited me to call him AT HOME if I had any issues. I ended up calling him at 1:30am for something that had I not panicked and thought thingsthrough, I would have been just fine. The impressive part was that despite being woke up at 1:30 am, he was extremely patient and understanding. That is a rare quality of any physician let alone a plastic surgeon. Just incredible.

I am Dr. Rand’s old patient. I had my procedure done in 2004. More than 10 years, the result is still beautiful and absolutely zero complication. My experience with Dr. Rand and his staff was wonderful. I highly recommend Dr. Rand and personally will see him again should I need any further care. He is a true gem in Bellevue and we are fortunate to have him here.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Rand. Both procedures were discussed fully and I was able to ask lots of questions and we discussed and finally decided on what the final outcome should look like. I highly recommend him.

Great experience, I have nothing but awesome things to say about Dr. Rand and his staff. I recommend you use your own judgment: visit his website, consult and decide. I personally wouldn’t go anywhere else!!!

CAUTION! I scheduled a consultation for Dr. Rand and was so excited as I had heard great things about him. I have 2 small babies and it was time to do something nice for me for a change! They took a $ 100 deposit via credit card over the phone which i was fine with and understood that I would be paying for a great consultation. A personal event came up the day before my appointment and I called and spoke with Rose (who has super friendly when she took my $$ but changed her tone quickly). I explained that I needed to reschedule (NOT CANCEL). Rose got ver rude at that point and let me know that they would still need to charge me for that hour and any additional hour that I booked. When I did not agree with that and explained that I still wanted to see Dr. Rand and didnt think it was fair to charge me twice and I told her I never signed anything authorizing her to charge me and that American Express would most likely agree with me she got very rude and told me I was no longer welcome.
What a shame that a well respected surgeon has such a high and mighty receptionist working on his team. He just lost my $ 20K+ that I was planning to use with his office.

Dr. Richard Rand is the best! I have had several surgery experiences with Dr. Rand and would not hesitate in recommending him to ALL my friends and family. He offers the entire package a patient could ever want for an elective surgery: #1 results, #1 in kindness, TOP doctor in Seattle! Go see him today and make yourself happy.

Extremely disappointing — I checked everything you’re ‘supposed’ to check, even bought into his ‘Top Doctor’s’ magazine rating… unfortunately I didn’t know that the Doctor’s pay to get that rating!
Everything seemed great with this Doc, everything checked out (certs etc) and I even got a recommendation for him from my friend’s dad who’s a plastic surgeon. His office was impressive and he was expensive, which I always figure you get what you pay for.
Unfortunately after telling me what ‘other’ Doctor’s do wrong (tunneling and uneven results) that’s exactly what I got from him! He also left bulges of fat below the incisions which are themselves uneven from side to side. I was so upset since he’d specifically told me this was something he had seen from ‘other’ Doctors. When I went back to speak to him about it he basically made it sound like that’s what i’d asked for (it does NOT look natural or even, who would ask for that??) and that it was my being too picky.
No sir, I know what natural and normal look like and after my surgery with him I would’ve done anything to get my old body back :(. Five grand later and a bad result, I would NOT recommend this Doctor.
