I love Dr. Miller and his entire team! My family and I have been seeing him for more than six years, and he always does an exceptional job. He is incredibly knowledgeable, generous with his time during consults, and truly an expert in all things cosmetic treatments. I highly, highly recommend!!
I spent $400 on a consultation that lasted less than 10 minutes with the surgeon. I came in specifically for an awake microlift, which is what he advertises. I’m 40, with minimal laxity, and was looking for a subtle lift under local anesthesia.
The consultant (not the doctor) immediately began steering me toward IV sedation, even though I clearly stated I wasn’t interested. When the surgeon finally came in, I explained what I wanted, and he said, “You’ll be disappointed.” But then he demonstrated what a microlift does, and it looked exactly like what I asked for. Still, he continued to push IV sedation.
When he finally agreed to local, it felt reluctant. He questioned me again, asking why I wanted local sedation, even though that was the entire reason I came in. I’ve had multiple plastic surgeries with reputable surgeons in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, and I’ve always felt respected and understood. This felt rehearsed, like a scripted upsell, and when it was clear I wasn’t going along with it, the energy shifted. It became uncomfortable. They didn’t seem happy I had pushed back.
The surgeon seemed rushed and distracted, like I was just another patient in a busy lineup. It felt like I was a second thought. I had spent $400 and was treated like I was on an assembly line. I left feeling unheard, second-guessed, and regretting I ever booked the consult.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m truly sorry to hear that your consultation felt rushed or that you left feeling unheard — that is never the experience we want for any patient.
Our goal with every consultation is to fully understand your concerns, review all appropriate options, and ensure you feel informed and comfortable with any recommendation. When discussing anesthesia — whether local or IV sedation — our responsibility is to prioritize safety, results, and patient wellbeing. In some cases, we offer both options; in others, we may suggest the one we believe will best support a predictable outcome. That said, you should always feel respected in that conversation, and I regret that it didn’t come across that way during your visit.
Your feedback is important, and we will be discussing it with our team to make sure our communication is clearer and that every patient feels fully supported, never pressured.
If you’re open to it, we would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly, review your concerns in detail, and make this right. Please feel free to reach out to our office so we can continue the conversation privately.
Thank you again for sharing your perspective — we take it seriously and truly value the chance to improve.

Dr. Miller and his team is now the only team that I trust. The process of having a micro-lift is very scary but after a little swelling the results are amazing! You truly get more than what you expected. Pain is gain but in this case the gain is so much more. I highly recommend Dr. Miller. He totally undersells. I love my results
I had microneedling done by Maia and she was delightful. She gave me so many tips for facial care, hair care and ways to maintain the results I achieved with the treatment. Dr Miller's staff was very friendly and extremely efficient. I would recommend Maia and Dr Miller to anyone wanting amazing skin. These pictures are before with numbing cream and immediately after.
Dr. Derek sheen has hands of gold! His endoscopic brow lift was performed flawlessly, and looks beyond amazing! He has exceeded all of my expectations! The results look natural, yet the results are so visible and done to perfection. He is very caring, and made me feel comfortable from start to finish. Wonderful Dr. with a great heart. Recovery was pretty simple and easy. The whole team was wonderful. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better experience. Thank you 🙏
I did a consultation with Dr. Miller to learn more about plastic surgery. He was excellent! Very knowledgeable, a very good communicator, and very patient. I was very grateful he spent so much time with me. He answered all my questions, and completely. I also got a sense he was a very compassionate individual. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend him!
I’m a very particular person, and this was actually my first time ever having any kind of surgery. A while back I had a small accident that left my nose slightly crooked, and it bothered me for a long time. I wasn’t looking for a big change, just something subtle to bring back the symmetry.
From the very first pre-op video consultation, Dr. Miller stood out to me. He understood exactly what I was trying to explain, even finishing some of my sentences. He’s extremely observant, smart, and confident in his work, which immediately gave me a sense of trust. I had done a lot of research before choosing a surgeon, and what I really wanted was someone who cared and someone who truly knew what they were doing. He was both.
On the day of the surgery, I was nervous since it was my first time being in that type of environment. But as soon as Dr. Miller came in, he completely calmed me down. He has such a kind and grounded personality that puts you at ease right away. I also really appreciated that he treated me with genuine care and respect, without any kind of bias.
Right before surgery, we started talking about life, music, and other random things, and the conversation was so natural that I almost worried he might get distracted. But that wasn’t the case at all. He remembered every single detail of what I wanted and did exactly what we discussed. At one point I got excited and asked if he could do a little more, but he stopped me and said it wasn’t necessary, and looking back, I’m so glad he did. It showed how much he values doing things the right way, not just saying yes to everything.
The healing process went well. I did have some swelling at first, and because my body usually heals a little slower, I was worried. But once everything settled, the result was perfect. It took about 10 to 12 months for the final shape to fully show, and it turned out exactly how I wanted. Natural, subtle, and balanced.
Dr. Miller is not only an incredibly skilled and experienced surgeon, but he’s also a genuinely good person. You can tell he truly cares about his patients. Even though I had to fly over 1,000 miles to see him, it was 100% worth it. I’ve already told my friends and family that if they ever need any kind of aesthetic work, he’s the one I’ll always recommend.
Thank you, Dr. Miller, for your kindness, your precision, and for giving me exactly what I hoped for.

I had such a great experience at Gotham Plastic Surgery with Dr. Philip Miller! From the moment I walked in, the staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Everyone made me feel comfortable right away and took the time to answer all of my questions.
I received Botox injections directly from Dr. Miller, and he was so patient, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. We met with Clay who assisted Dr. Miller who was also incredible. explained everything clearly and made sure I felt confident throughout the process. I am looking forward to seeing the results over the next week.
Overall, the whole team was professional, kind, and genuinely cool to work with. I’d definitely recommend Gotham Plastic Surgery and Dr. Miller to anyone considering Botox or any other cosmetic treatment!

I had a lower lip reduction procedure with Dr. Philip Miller, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first consultation, he and his team showed exceptional professionalism, care, and attention to detail. The entire process—from pre-op to recovery—was smooth, reassuring, and handled with the highest level of expertise.
The results look natural, and the healing process has been much easier than I expected, thanks to the clear aftercare instructions and support from his staff. What stood out most was how comfortable and confident Dr. Miller made me feel every step of the way.
If you are considering cosmetic surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Miller and his team. Their top-tier service, professionalism, and genuine care for their patients set them apart. Truly a five-star experience!
I had a rhinoplasty surgery with Dr. Miller. Since that day I can’t breathe with one nasal. I know 3 people including me has the same problem after his work. He did second surgery to fix it and it didn’t help. He suggested the 3d surgery. Obviously I didn’t agreed. All he said to me “ you will get used to it”. DONT RECOMMEND HIM!
Dr. Miller and the entire staff made me feel so comfortable. Zain was so kind when I was running late and he moved my appointment to a more convenient time. Clay was so sweet and listened to all of my concerns setting up the appointment so well. Absolutely no pushiness - just working with me, listening to my concerns and finding solutions. Dr Miller was so warm the second he came in the room. His consultation was extremely thorough and he got to know me as a person as well. I’m so happy and excited to move forward!
