★★★★★
Dr. Samas did a fabulous job with my breast augmentation! He was incredibly receptive and truly listened to my needs and concerns. The results exceeded my expectations, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. I highly recommend him to anyone considering this procedure!
★★★★★
There’s a level of trepidation when you consider plastic surgery and I went into 5280 Plastic Surgery with a fair amount. It was immediately relieved upon meeting Dr. Samas and his team. They were welcoming, kind and had an empathetic approach. My surgery (a mini tummy tuck with liposuction) was one week ago and superseded my expectations. Dr. Samas is knowledgeable and patient, answered my never-ending questions with grace, and I can’t be more happy with the results. I sincerely appreciate his level of perfectionism (he has just the right amount) coupled with an air of humbleness (fabulous bed-side manner) and his staff (shout out to them for taking such great care of me) - I would most definitely recommend 5280 Plastic Surgery if you’re thinking of making a change to your appearance.
★★★★★
I could not recommend Dr. Samas enough. He’s an incredibly kind physician who really cares about his patients, their experience and their results. He listens intently, really internalizing where you’re coming from, your fears and your questions, and always responds thoughtfully and thoroughly. Most physicians push their agenda on you or take unnecessarily dramatic measures that can cause more harm than good, but Samas is the perfect amount of conservative which achieves the best, most natural results, while also going out of his way in his patient care. He will always put you first when making decisions about your care. I was referred to him by multiple people and have since and will continue to refer others.

Dr John Samas is beyond an amazing breast surgeon. I had breast surgery done after breast cancer 5 years ago. His work is beautiful and makes me feel so good about myself! I never lost my identity after cancer because Dr John Samas helped me become more confident in my body due to his beautiful work. I brag about him to many of my friends and honestly to strangers I happen upon. Need a breast surgeon? I highly recommend Dr John Samas.

★★★★★
I couldn't be happier with both the care I received and the results of my surgery. From my very first consultation to my follow-up appointments, the entire team made me feel comfortable, informed, and confident in my decision. I highly recommend Dr. Samas and his staff for their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail.
I had a BBL, Lipo 360, and a tummy tuck, and the results truly exceeded my expectations. The transformation looks natural and beautifully balanced, and I feel more confident than ever. The staff was always supportive, responsive to my questions, and genuinely caring throughout my recovery process.
Choosing this practice was the best decision I could have made. I wouldn't trust anyone else, and there's no other place I would have rather gone. If you're considering cosmetic surgery, you'll be in excellent hands here.

I had 4 consults and ultimately went with Dr Samas at 5280 plastic surgery for several reasons. They offered the Motiva implants I wanted, Dr Samas was very personable and professional. He personally keeps in touch and answers any questions at any time. Lastly, the location is conveniently located near my house. In this day and age, I am happier with less time spent in traffic. I am pretty athletic and fit and a mom of 2, both C sections. I wanted something to enhance all the hard work I did with diet and exercise. Dr Samas delivered. I did a mommy makeover with breast augmentation and mini tummy tuck. The procedure itself could not have gone any smoother. All the perioperative staff were friendly, professional and efficient. I had 0/10 pain the entire time! I did do the Exparel shot. I am only 2 weeks post op, still recovering and swollen but I can tell I look really "natural" and not exaggerated nor disproportionate. I am so excited to see my final results in the coming months and glad I did not have to travel out of the country or to Miami for these amazing results. I knew Dr Samas was an artist and visionary when he drew on my body before the surgery, imagined where my implants should go, even shaded "no touch" zones and the results speak for themselves. I can't wait to post before and after pics. Highly recommend 5/5 stars!

I recently had my breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Samas, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very first consultation, he was incredibly kind, patient, and reassuring. His bedside manner is truly exceptional—he takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. One thing that really stood out to me is how he stays in touch, which is something I haven’t experienced with other surgeons. He followed up regularly, checked on my progress, and made sure I always felt supported. Choosing the right implant size felt overwhelming at first, but Dr. Samas guided me through the decision with so much care. Thanks to his expertise, we picked the perfect size, and I’m thrilled with my results. I’m also incredibly happy that I went with Motiva implants—they look and feel amazing. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Samas. My results are beautiful, natural, and exactly what I hoped for. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon or a better experience.
★★★★★
I had an incredible experience with Dr. Samas! A few years ago I went through a weight loss journey. I was able to lose over 100 pounds. I’m a male, late 30s and average height. Losing 100 pounds left me with excess skin, especially around my midsection. I met with Dr. Samas and discussed our options. Lipo. Lift. Skin removal. It was a very human experience. He listened to my concerns and was honest about realistic expectations. I felt respected and informed throughout the process. I never felt rushed, and the more we discussed the treatment plan, the more I began to trust his judgment. I am happy to report a wonderful outcome. Not only was he able to address my issues, but left little evidence of the surgery. The line of my incision is discreet and below the waist line. Outstanding! One final thing to note, is the post surgery experience. I had access to Dr. Samas for any issues/concerns and never felt abandoned in recovery. In the world of plastics/cosmetics, there can be a lot of noise around miracle procedures. It’s not like that. The physicians are practicing their craft and doing their best to deliver on realistic expectations. Be selective of who you’ll work with based on results, feel and experience. Dr. Samas ticked all those boxes for me!
★★★★★
I recently had a consultation with Dr. John Samas, and I was genuinely impressed. He was incredibly easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable discussing my concerns. What stood out most was his kindness and honesty—he took the time to let me know that the procedure I was there for was covered by my insurance. His professionalism exceeded my expectations. Not only did he complete all the necessary work ahead of time, but he also coordinated directly with the specialist who will be treating me. I feel very confident in his skills and plan to return for future procedures. If you're considering a consultation, I highly recommend taking the time to see Dr. Samas. Once you meet him, you'll be able to make your own informed decision.
