What patients say about the clinic

Patient reviews from Google, names attached. 4.3 average across 67 reviews.

I had my first consultation with Dr. Tumi, and he was beyond fabulous. From the jump, he shook my hand and introduced himself to my daughter and I. He included her in the conversation and even had some laughs with her. This made the situation alot less vulnerable given the reason I was there. He is the second surgeon that I have met with, and wasn't going to be my last, until I decided he was the last. It is because of his honesty, integrity, authenticity and professionalism, that made my choice. I saw some comments in the reviews where people stated he made them feel uncomfortable while getting undressed and for me that did not happen. He was respectful of my space and was sure I was covered appropriately. I went to see him for a breat augmentation and Dr. Tumi did not think an augmentation would be required. I really appreciated that about him, because the first surgeon I met, insisted this procedure, despite me only wanting a lift with fat transfer. This is a huge cost savings for me, and more natural for my body type, and in my opinion. Dr. Tumi did not make me feel rushed with any questions and time was not ever an issue for him. He wanted to be sure I knew all that I needed. His office manager Karyn, was absolutely wonderful and easy to connect with. She took her time to discuss things that I did not think of and even called me over the weekend when I emailed her some more questions. This is above and beyond care. My surgery is April 20th and I know I am in good hands. I will follow this up with further reviews in the future and have no doubt it will be 5 stars across the board. One last thing... of all the reviews, I paid attention to the ones where the patients actually had surgery, not the ones who were disgruntled about the office staff or OHIP issues. After all, it is the surgeon we want precision with, isn't it? Thanks Karyn and Dr. Tumi, for making me comfortable and content.

I had a great experience with Dr. Tumi and Karyn throughout my entire surgical journey. They were both incredibly kind, patient, and always took the time to answer all of my questions. From my first consultation to my follow-up appointments, they made me feel comfortable, supported, and well cared for. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone considering.

Frequently asked questions

Morpheus8 Body questions,
answered

The cost depends on the areas treated and the number of sessions. A series is priced as a package. You receive the figure at the consultation rather than before it. Not covered by OHIP. Financing is available through Beautifi, Medicard and Credit Medical.

Typically forty-five to sixty minutes of treatment, plus forty-five to sixty minutes of numbing beforehand.

A numbing cream beforehand. It is done in the office treatment room.

A day or two of redness and warmth, a fine grid of marks that fades over three to five days, all under clothes. Most people are back at desk work the next day.

Once the cream has worked, most patients feel pressure and a warm prickling with each stamp. A sunburn feeling in the area lasts the rest of the day.

A day or two of redness and a fine grid of marks under clothes. No sun, heat, exercise or tight clothing over the area for two days. ---

The tightening builds over three to six months after the series, then typically lasts a year or more. A maintenance session every twelve to eighteen months holds it.

This is a series rather than a single visit: three sessions, four to six weeks apart, with the tightening building over the three to six months that follow. Because the treated area is under clothes, most people are back at work the next day, which makes it easier to plan around than a facial treatment. If you want a change you can see next month, this is the wrong tool and you will be told so.
