Reviews

"Absolutely excellent physician, a surgical artist, I should say. Amazing attention to detail, and very honest with what is, and is not possible. She is clear at pre op with what to expect at home after surgery, and very attentative during the recovery process. My results have been better than I expected! I highly, highly recommend her."

"I don’t know where to start when speaking about my experience with Dr. Kumbla and the Georgia Plastics team. There’s so many great things to say. Let me give you an example. Have you ever wanted something to eat so bad, but you don’t know what it is that you are wanting? Then go into a restaurant and the staff treats you as if you are the most important customer they’ve had. I mean VIP treatment off the top! Then you sit down and eat the best food you have ever had. It’s soul pleasing! You can tell that the chef put their “foot” (aka their heart) in that food! Now you may be wondering- what does this have to do with Dr. Kumbla and GA Plastics. Well, Dr. Kumbla is the chef. You can tell she loves what she does. She is so informative that I never have any questions for her. She’s patient, silly, and kind. She’s simply beautiful inside and out. Not once have I gone into the office and the staff was rude. They are all awesome for real. My apologies about the food example, but I’ve been on a diet trying to lose weight for my surgery 🤷🏾‍♀️ I might be a little hungry 😳… I CAN’T WAIT FOR MY TUMMY TUCK!!!! Mrs. Bennett"
