I have not personally been to Dr Norden in NJ but seriously, is he channeling Rico Suave? http://www.aestheticsbynorden.com/about-us/He does Lasik and other things like Botox and Coolscultping, etc...

I don't want someone who is 'out there', and might be good fun to have a drink with on a night out, operating on me.

The photo is cringey, but I wouldn't write him off until I'd interact with him or see him interacting with someone else. Basing an opinion on that one photo is a bit harsh. |

Well, from reading his website, he's a LASIK doctor who, I guess had a good rep for using LASIK. Although somewhat of an opportunist to expand into the cosmetic market AND, of course a very TACKY photo presentation, reason TO choose him would be LIMITED to LASIK. |

He's an 'eye guy' who's known for LASIK. He's not known or recognized for performing aesthetic procedures. Nor is his staff that performs them. He's just someone wanting to expand his practice into more of a medspa via purchase of laser like devices; a thing where his own experience in using the LASIK device is not directly relative to his experience or capacity to produce consistently good results with the other aesthetic devices he's purchased to expand his practice.

yeah he is not an aesthetics trained doctor and the photo composition shows that he doesn't really have an aesthetic eye... so good thing for him that he is making his $$ with lasik

I agree that he's probably ok for Lasik, but I certainly wouldn't consider him for anything else. When I first saw the above pic on his website I thought it was tongue-in-cheek, but after reading thoroughly it became apparent that the doctor thinks his lechy pose surrounded by his harem is tasteful! It may not be entirely fair but there are certain things over and above bad reviews etc that would put me off a plastic surgeon/medspa doctor - dirty nails, slovenly/messy appearance (which he doesn't have, he appears to be well groomed) or a bit of a tacky website. I know, its not nice to judge a book by its cover and I'm guilty...!

His pose in the first post reminds me of the famous 1972 Burt Reynolds nude centerfold in Cosmo magazine. At least he sat on the couch for his MediSpa photo. www.ridgewoodnjmedspa.comcybergirl attached the following image(s):  couch.jpg (189kb) downloaded 9 time(s).You cannot view/download attachments.

Probably the last person I'd use for any kind of vision-related surgery.
