I had a bilateral breast reduction with Dr Libby Copeland-Halperin in December 2023 and recently past 12 weeks post-op. A huge milestone in the healing journey!! I've wanted a breast reduction since my early teens and finally proceeded with the surgery [in my mid-thirties] once I'd found the right surgeon - enter Dr. Copeland-Halperin stage left. I was impressed by the mother/daughter practice, an all-female surgical office, and that Dr. Copeland-Halperin is a specialist in the Le Jour BR technique [for those unfamiliar, this is the lollipop technique, instead of the anchor, which produces less scarring]. The entire process from my initial consultation, to surgery and recovery has been spectacular. Dr Copeland-Halperin's communication consistently exceeds my expectations; if I emailed with any minor concern I'd receive a phone call within 5 minutes to talk about the symptoms and if there was an appropriate course of treatment. Above and beyond a great and supportive experience, the results are beyond my wildest dreams!! I am so, so, so happy. The recovery time was fast and I didn't need anything stronger than a Tylenol for pain management, I believe this to be a reflection of the exceptional technique and care of the Doctor over my pain tolerance. I can't thank Dr. Copeland-Halperin and her team, including Nurse O'Brien, enough for the positive impact their expertise has had on my life. For any women interested in getting a breast reduction and are looking for a review to give them peace of mind about whether they should proceed with an inquiry - let this be it! Do it! The only regret you'll have is not doing it sooner x
Dr. Copeland-Halperin is excellent. I had a serious cut on my forehead and I was worried about how it would look long-term, but Libby repaired it perfectly. Her aftercare plan, using specialized topical treatments and laser therapy, has made the scar disappear. Libby, her assistant, and everyone in the office made me feel right at home and always explained everything thoughtfully; I always felt like I had all the information I needed to make the right decisions. The office is great and everyone there is super kind and helpful!
I highly recommend Dr. Libby Copeland-Halperin. She and her entire office are incredible, caring, attentive and at the top of their game. They made me feel comfortable and taken care of at every step of the way. From my initial consult, to the procedure day itself, to the recovery and follow ups. I am super happy with the care I received as well as the results . I've already recommended friends and family to her practice.

Dr. Copeland-Halperin did my breast reduction procedure earlier this year and the experience has been wonderful from start to finish! I am so incredibly happy with the results and feel grateful that she listened to me and what I wanted. My life has been changed by this procedure. I went from being at least a G cup to being a C or D cup, and my breasts are also more symmetrical. My back feels so much better and my clothes fit more comfortably now. My journey in seeking this procedure has spanned many years and included a lot of frustrating barriers. I have had many negative experiences with doctors and feeling like my voice hasn't been heard, but from the first meeting I had with Dr. Copeland-Halperin, I knew that she was different and that I could trust her to lead me through such a daunting procedure. Her high level of professionalism is equally matched by her bedside manner--something not all doctors are able to master. She is highly skilled, compassionate, and truly a pleasure to work with. Her team is equally wonderful! Andrea and Lauren were also huge contributors in making this experience so wonderful for me. I would urge anyone to choose Dr. Copeland-Halperin for this procedure. I guarantee you will be very well taken care of!
Dr. Copeland-Halperin changed my life and gave me my confidence back. The procedure was simple and recovery super fast! She has meticulous attention to detail and goes above and beyond to truly make sure the healing continues the way it should.
I highly recommend Dr. Libby Copeland to removing lipoma with minimal scar. She and staff are friendly,, caring, attentive all the time. They made me feel comfortable and taken care of me all the way through the process. Dr Copeland is knowledgeable and professional about the procedure. She’s very patient and easy to communicate with my questions and concerns, she also has superb bedside manner. I am glad I found her.
Dr. Libby Copeland performed an extraction of a 7 cm lipoma on my upper arm. Her minimally invasive extraction techniques, including the use of liposuction, allowed for a much smaller incision (about a half inch) versus other surgeons I considered. Her time and attention, personal accessibility, surgical skill and consultation support made for a smooth and stress free process. I highly recommend her as a plastic surgeon for serious consideration if you are exploring removal of a lipoma.
I highly recommend Dr. Libby Copeland-Halperin to anyone looking for a doctor who is compassionate, personable, and knowledgeable in what they do. Before meeting with Dr. Copeland-Halperin, I had met with a couple other doctors who only offered me one solution. Feeling discouraged in what options I had, I went to Dr. Copeland-Halperin’s office with a little hope that an alternate solution was out there. When we met, she let me talk about my concerns before walking through multiple options. She even showed examples of other work she’s done so I can visualize what the end result could be. She left all final decisions up to me while giving her expert advice when needed. She made sure I felt comfortable at all times, as well as Lauren and Andrea, who are a part of her lovely staff. Thank you for helping me gain my confidence back! I look in the mirror now and feel so proud of the decision I made after years of feeling insecure.
