"Amazing Results with an Excellent Staff! - I’m a 42 year old Asian male that really struggled with unhealthy habits during the pandemic. I was looking for a reset and needed to get back in shape and lose around 10-15 pounds. I had a previous consultation for laser lipo at another place prior to coming to Elite MD, and I’m so glad I decided to come here instead! From the initial consult to the post op treatments, everyone has been amazing. The deciding factor for me was after meeting Dr. Bansal for the first time, he really put me at ease and explained things about the procedure that I didn’t even think of, for example, he specializes in ethnic skin and that was not even something I considered. I was presented with multiple options for treatment and did not feel pressured to pick one over the other, it was left entirely up to me and what I wanted to achieve, which I really appreciated. Both procedures were thoroughly explained, and I ended up choosing vaser lipo for my upper and lower abs, and flanks. I am 7 weeks post op, and have lost 13 pounds as of today, no more love handles and my stomach has never been flatter. This result couldn’t have been achieved without Elite MD, the guidance they provided was top notch, they were thorough, knowledgeable, and care about my results as much I do. This is my first cosmetic procedure, and if I do decide on another one down the road, Elite MD would definitely be my first and last stop."

"* 3 months post procedure ** I am now 3 months post-op, and although I'm still in the early healing stages, I am happy with my results this far. I am so appreciative of how Dr.B set very realistic expectations from the start and how he gave me the tools to help set me up for the most successful outcome possible. One thing I kept reminding myself during the recovery is that he always reminded me of the 1/3 rule after my procedure. 1/3 of the outcome is based on the surgeons work, 1/3 is based on the patients postop care, and the last 1/3 is the universe and how your body responds to the procedure. This was great to remember during the healing process, and it kept me on track. I had a breast Aug with another PS a couple years ago, and I am still amazed how different EliteMd is. From their amazing family culture, maintaining good patient relationships, and their awesome bedside manner. I'm sure we can all agree that we typically only see the plastic surgeon once, maybe twice, if you're lucky. That is NOT how it is at EliteMD. I met with Dr.B before making my deposit, and he Zoom called me a week before my procedure. I then saw him the day of my procedure, and two times after at my post ops. This is unreal, considering how busy he and this practice are. When I first met Dr.B, I remember him telling me we are now family, and he truly followed through with his statement. I feel so comfortable talking to him and asking any questions I have regarding my results, and KNOWING he has my best interest at heart and truly wants me to be happy. This is irreplaceable. Another thing that is so different is ALL staff at this practice are so happy when you walk in the door. They make it a point to remember your name and are always so happy to see you. The management team is the sweetest, and they make it known that they truly care about your experience. I honestly look forward to my appointments here. Vanessa is truly amazing. She was there for me when I had questions throughout my healing, and it is such a great resource to have. One last thing I'd like to mention is how this is pretty much a one-stop shop, which is extremely helpful and convenient during the healing process. You can get your lymphatic drainage massages here (Linda, you are amazing), laser treatments, facials, and pretty much anything cosmetic related. I could go on and on about the amazing staff here. You all truly make the patient experience so amazing and unforgettable. Thank you, EliteMd"

"Clinical trial participant dealing with hyperpigmentation/dark spots - have been a participant in Dr. Sonia's clinical trial for her skin treatment. This treatment specifically deals with hyperpigmentation/dark spots, other forms of discoloration in darker skin as well as acne.It's been almost 3 months and I am completely convinced that this is the ONLY, and I mean ONLY skin treatment that actual works for me. I'm over 40 and have been using retin A (prescription grade) off and on since 1992! I've tried different cleansers, creams, mask etc. I've even had "blue light" therapy for my acne. For my dark spots, I've tried skin lighteners such as cyspera and spent over $200. All have minimal results. However this product Doctor Sonia formulated has not only cleared my skin, it has soften my skin, minimized pore size and visibility and lighten the dark spots and discoloration from acne.The tinted primer and sunscreen is supposed to lighten dark spots and provide protection from UV rays. However I apply this primer before applying foundation and it works wonders. I'm not a regular when it comes to wearing make up of any kind but the tinted primer makes my foundation blend perfectly and evenly. Furthermore I don't deal with break outs as an after effect of wearing foundation.I honestly could type an entire essay as to how tremendously satisfied I am with my results. I look forward to this product becoming available for everyone who has faced skin challenges such as myself."

"Samaya Acne & Pigmentation System - This new product I have been using has been life-changing I’ve been battling with hyperpigmentation acne and the ugly scars it has left behind from breakouts i’ve only been using this product for such a short amount of time and it’s cleared up pretty much all of my acne, it’s also knocking down the hyper pigmentation. I definitely will recommend to anybody that is dealing with acne problems to try this product."

"I’ve had lipo, fat transfer to breast and BBL all in office - I have had nothing but an amazing experience every time I walk into Elite Md. I’ve had lipo, fat transfer to breast and bbl all in office.

"I actually came to Elite MD because, I have a ethnic skin and acne scars. I always felt insecure about my skin because of my breakouts when i was younger. Since i started coming here i have noticed a difference in my skin and texture. I feel so comfortable wearing my hair up now and wear little to no make up. Skin is so much smoother and softer. I had 4 Ematrix lazer treatments, facials and use the day & nighttime products. I love the products so much. The staff here are always so kind and welcoming. The facility is also very clean. Coming here was the best decision ever. Thank you for all you do."

"I first became a patient of Elite MD about 4 years ago when I had laser hair removal. I was impressed  that my hair removal specialist was highly sought after and world-renowned in his field. Five years later, I had the courage to undergo a huge transformation -  Vaser Liposuction. I spent months researching the procedure, weighing the pros/cons, and finding the right surgeon. I was led back to Elite MD because I knew they had high standards for their patient care. I met with Ray who went over all the surgery details and informed me about how to prepare for surgery by getting the correct supplements. Ray made sure I had all the information I needed to put my mind at ease.  After I had a consultation with Dr. Millicent Geers, I knew I had made the right choice. She addressed all my questions, and gave me confidence in her skills to perform the Vaser procedure. I was incredibly nervous about having the surgery, but I knew I was in good hands and felt prepared for surgery thanks to the Elite MD team. They are very professional. And they are so patient with questions and VERY supportive with the post-surgery recovery process! I am a REAL patient currently being seen for post-surgery support and I HIGHLY recommend Elite MD! I am very pleased with my results - Dr. Geers is truly skilled and gave me the contoured hourglass  shape that I wanted!Also, I can’t say enough about the education provided by my care team about the procedure and by Dr. Bansal about effective lifestyle and eating habits to achieve the best post-surgery outcome. Dr. Bansal generously shared his time and expertise explaining the post surgery care. So very thankful to the Elite MD team!!"

"For those of you who have dark facial hair and are wondering if laser hair removal works? It is definitely working for me! After having kids my facial hair got darker and thicker and nothing else worked for me except laser. I’ve been having treatments done here at Elite MD San Ramon, 4 treatments so far and I’ve noticed a huge difference the hair is disappearing each time and I’ve never felt more happy and confident, and I’ve been wearing less makeup as well. The treatments don’t take long. The laser feels like quick zaps with some heat. And then you come back around 6 to 8 weeks. Dr. Sonia and the staff here are so nice and take good care of me, I’m so glad my Aunt Deanna referred me here. I definitely recommend it!"

"My journey with Elite MD has definitely been long, but that comes with the treatment of laser hair removal. It is important to communicate the problems you have with your face, to the doctors and staff so they can help find a solution. They truly have helped me overcome the battle I have had with the hair on my face. It’s hard to open up about these problems especially at a young age, you worry about your image, but now I feel confident in showing my skin. Thank you Dr. Sonia for really helping me, making me feel comfortable at all times and for explaining why some treatments weren’t showing as much results as other times. Thank you to the staff as well, for keeping a positive and friendly approach to your clients. I hope this encourages people to make themselves feel good about coming into Elite MD."

"I have been going to Elite MD for several years for laser treatments. I have always been helped by friendly staff at the front desk. The nurse practitioners I have seen have been knowledgeable, professional and kind. I have never felt like they are trying to up sell me. I saw Dr Sonia today as my normal nurse practitioner is out on maternity leave. She offered great advice for keeping my skin healthy while she treated me. I would and have recommended this business to my friends and family."

"I came to their new spa in beverly hills and it looks very nice. I did a laser anti aging procedure and my forehead looked tighter...I need to go in for another 2 procedures to make it permanent. I also did a laser hair removal treatment and no scars or spots from it. I even have a darker complexion but her lasers were very safe for my skin. Dr Sonia is also very friendly and will kindly answer all your questions you have."

"Come see Linda here if you want the most thorough facial!I am 42 and has been all over the place because we were in the military and only found one lady in Austin that's thorough like Linda.Linda has lots of experience and knows what she's doing. Every time I go into see her, I walk out with not even 1 impurity in my skin. Lots of places I've been to, just do whatever and have you in and out. They aren't thorough when it comes to extractions and just extract the big ones, or only the ones you can see. Linda will even get all the ones you can feel.Ever since I've been going going to Linda, I stopped getting a big cystic acne every month when I'm getting me period. I guess there's like nothing in my skin for it to turn into a pimple. I have super clear skin now too and don't even need to use a concealer to hide any blemish from a pimple.Linda does get booked up like a month in advance so you will need to get on her schedule ASAP if you want to be seen within the month.I appreciate you sooo much Linda!! And love the way you make me look and feel!!"

"I went to Elite MD to get laser hair removal treatment for my full face and neck. I wanted to improve my self confidence and skin because it is something I have struggled with my whole life due to the excess amount of facial hair I had since I was a little girl. I chose Elite MD because Jeff is honestly so amazing and was very honest with me [I was a high risk candidate] and he took the risk with me and took the time to fully educate me on the procedure and the outcomes of it. I felt very comfortable at Elite MD and everyone is so friendly. They always make me feel welcomed and are very accommodating to my schedule. I am so happy with my results and have 2 appointments left and I would recommend Elite MD to my friends and family for any procedure they may need done."

"I started seeing Linda the esthetician at Elite MD in March 2018. She was instantly different from anyone I've ever seen before at any clinic or spa. She was very knowledgeable about acne and skin anatomy in general. It was really helpful to hear her process and how she planned to tackle some of my issues. I loved that she told me "we are doing this without antibiotics!". She came through on this proclamation, by mid June 2018, I was completely clear and glowing. I came to see Linda with cystic adult acne on my jawline and neck, as well as hyper-pigmentation. She connected my issues with complete extraction sessions and chemical peels. It took some work from me which I followed her instructions to a T. I saw great results when I stayed diligent to the routine. There is a need to see her often as in every couple of weeks in the beginning to really be effective, but as soon as I saw that it was working I didn't mind the cost or the time spent. Linda knows what she is doing and what she is talking about! Listen to what she says and you will have the results you want and more!"

"Real results and caring staff! - I highly recommend Elite MD to anyone that is interested in getting Kybella to improve their side profile and jawline. I decided to go to Elite MD because of their reputation and the results that I had seen with laser hair removal and CoolSculpting. Dr. Sonia did an excellent job of explaining the Kybella treatment process and making me feel comfortable. I also appreciated that she correctly set my expectations on how my results would look after the first treatment. At no point did I feel pressured to return. As far as results go, her extremely sweet team does an excellent job of documenting your before and after. They even gave me a call the next day to ensure I was doing alright. After my first session I can see my jawline is becoming more defined and I’m looking forward to my end results after my second session."

"Dr. Sonia takes an approach to skin care that is not just an administration of a treatment, but rather an educational experience that provides details in understanding the steps necessary on a journey to clearer skin. I have come to her to correct slight difficulties I have in dealing with my sometimes, challenging ethnic skin. I have been on her topical regiment for a little over a month now, and the results are very noticeable. My breakouts have been extinguished, my hyper-pigmentation reduced, and my ingrown hairs (beard) are a far less often sight. I look forward to the next steps in finishing the journey to achieving my dream skin! The professionalism as well etiquette of Dr. Sonia and her team have made my experience a truly enjoyable journey thus far."

He educated me about the ins and outs of my skin, the laser, and what to do at home to continue to improve the tone and texture of my skin.

"Amazing Practice! - Danville, CA - I first met Dr. Sonia about four years ago after seeing her on KRON 4. I called and made a consultation for laser liposuction. Dr. Sonia spent a good amount of time with me consulting me about the procedure and then I even met Dr. Bansal the same day. Dr. Sonia was so informative and made me feel so comfortable that soon after I scheduled my procedure. Since then I have used Dr. Sonia for a possible skin cancer on my lip and she quickly got me in and took care of it. She is always so caring and personable. I have also used Jeff for botox, juvederm and laser treatments...he is also amazing. I have used Linda for facials and she is the best there is. I have also had three procedures done by Dr. Bansal and he is a true artist at plastic surgery. I am so glad I called and met with Dr. Sonia four years ago and in turn met an amazing office for both dermatology and plastic surgery. I will never go anywhere else and have referred many, many friends and family and will continue to do so. Everyone has been more than happy with them!"

"I do not understand seeing ANY poor reviews for Elite MD!I have been getting a variety of laser treatments here for probably 2 1/2 - 3 years now and have nothing but great things to say. Not only are they very reasonably priced, but the staff is great, they do an awesome job, and are very accommodating. I went to another place before this for laser treatments and the results were crap and I always felt like they were in a rush to get me out of there; not here though. Jeff is absolutely AMAZING and I strongly recommend seeing him!!! He has always been polite, courteous, friendly, and very professional. This is not the type of "all business" place to go. They seem to genuinely care about their patients; which is something you don't always see. Any question that I have, he is happy to answer and explain, or give me suggestions if I'm looking for help. The results are great! I would NEVER go anywhere else and I encourage anyone looking for any sort of skin treatment to come here and see Jeff!"

I've had horrible acne and scarring for 9 years and started to become annoyed with constant breakouts and having to wear makeup.

I can walk out of the house without putting my mask on. Thanks Dr. Sonia your the greatest!"

"This review is ONLY for Jeff since I have never had any other procedures there besides laser hair removal.I was brought to this place by groupon. I got six sessions at a really good price for full legs. When I first called, the front desk was really accommodating. I didn’t have my first appointment for about three months because of mine and their busy schedules, which was to be expected since the groupon was just released. When I first came in I filled out the appropriate paperwork and the front desk was very nice to me. Also, the place looked CLEAN which made me very happy :)So then Jeff brought me into the room and we started. If you do not like pain, DO NOT get laser hair removal. It is the worst pain I have ever experienced, and I had to bring my boyfriend to the second session to hold my hand. Besides the pain, Jeff was very professional. I didn’t feel uncomfortable with him and he was very informative about the process.Now, to the results. It took several weeks after the first procedure to really notice any. After those few weeks, I noticed HUGE results and was surprised about the progress after only the first session. I have very pale skin, and my hair is jet black. Before the first session, I had 2-3 thick hairs growing out of each follicle. Now I have only one, and some areas without hair. I just had my second session about a week ago, but there is already less hair. Another thing is, the biggest difference is only on my lower legs. On my upper, the hair is light brown and thin. I haven’t noticed any difference there. My suggestion is, if you do not have light skin and dark, thick hair, it’s not worth it.Anyways, even though I have seen several groupons for laser hair removal at other places, I haven’t bought them. I am going to buy more treatments, even at the full price, here because I know it works and I am so comfortable with Jeff. Plus, I know they have quality lasers. I wouldn’t risk going anywhere else."

"This review is ONLY for Jeff since I have never had any other procedures there besides laser hair removal.I was brought to this place by groupon. I got six sessions at a really good price for full legs. When I first called, the front desk was really accommodating. I didn't have my first appointment for about three months because of mine and their busy schedules, which was to be expected since the groupon was just released. When I first came in I filled out the appropriate paperwork and the front desk was very nice to me. Also, the place looked CLEAN which made me very happy :)So then Jeff brought me into the room and we started. If you do not like pain, DO NOT get laser hair removal. It is the worst pain I have ever experienced, and I had to bring my boyfriend to the second session to hold my hand. Besides the pain, Jeff was very professional. I didn't feel uncomfortable with him and he was very informative about the process.Now, to the results. It took several weeks after the first procedure to really notice any.

"Honestly, I am shocked at these reviews. Have we all been going to the same Dr.?I have been a patient for a little over a year and have visited the office for a variety of treatments: botox, acne, laser hair removal, microdermabrasion and Juviderm. I've only had great results and I haven't had any issues at all with anyone there. Actually, the front desk staff (both women) have addressed me by name every time I come in. Even when I've called to ask a question, they've always said my name and asked how my parents were. After I got Botox the first time, one of the assistants called me to check on me and couldn't have been friendlier.The Nurse Practitioner who works the lasers, does Botox injections, etc., has always been wonderful. He's an absolute EXPERT in working the lasers.....I LOVED my results and I think he has so much experience that he works those machines like a pro. I too have bought the Groupon Botox package (one last year and again just about a week ago) and even used the coupon I found in our local "Our Town" mag (She offered $9/unit, unlimited units) and never ever thought Dr. Sonia shorted me (and the Nurse Practitioner injected me too and I never thought he shorted me either). I saw the syringes. Same thing for my Juviderm, she showed me the vial before and after my injection.Dr. Sonia's always been so friendly and sweet with me. And every issue I've had with my skin, she's addressed, given me options, and gave me the results promised. For my acne, specifically, Dr Sonia was the ONLY Dr. who gave me an action plan to attack my adult-onset acne. She printed out a schedule for me which included a morning routine, evening routine, prescription meds to take and apply, etc. It was so organized and I am THRILLED with my RESULTS! My previous Dr kept me on Doxycycline for a YEAR without great results and just said to come back and see her next year (that's why I switched to Dr Sonia). Dr Sonia was the only one to present me with a full action plan to combat my acne and guess what? I am almost acne free today. The plan is really working. These are the best results I've had in 3-years. And regarding her products, for my acne, she recommended her own products AND over the counter stuff (she specifically mentioned Cetaphil and Neutrogena). She never ever tried to sell me anything. I plan to go back for more laser hair removal in March and a check-up on my acne. Next year, I'd like to consult her on that non-invasive lipo as well.I think Dr. Sonia and her staff are incredibly smart and successfully tackled the dermatological issues I presented them. I will keep returning."

"I have been using Elite MD for my lazer hair removal services with Jeff. The staff and Jeff were absolutely outstanding. I was greeted and welcomed immediately upon entering the office. I was seen in 5 minutes and Jeff was so great. He explained the procedure to me in detail and made sure I was comfortable. The procedure went flawless.I haven’t been exposed to skin care or other procedure but I highly praise the services I recieved."

"Dr.Sonia and her team are absolutely amazing. I have been suffering from acne and acne scarring for about 9 years. I visited her office about 3 months ago after seeing her on the local news station during an interview. I am happy I didn't just rely on the unfiltered reviews on yelp, because if I did, I would have missed out on being paired up with the best dermatologist. It has only been three months and my skin looks 70% better and I have this amazing youthful glow. With my new acne regimen, my skin is clearer, my acne is under control, and even better this regimen has knocked 5 years of age off my face...naturally. Another best thing about Dr.Sonia and Elite MD would be her amazing staff, Jodi is very helpful and Amber is a total sweetheart; they make you feel so welcomed. Dr. Sonia also offers different products based on your budget; she gives you the top notch products and the cheaper alternatives to help you when purchasing the products needed for the acne regimen. I definitely recommend Dr.Sonia's Sunscreen and their in-house fading cream with retinol. I was already beautiful; always have been, but now with the help of Dr.Sonia, I'm drop dead gorgeous."
