In August of 2003, I participated in my first co-ed slow pitch game. I had played countless games of traveling fast pitch softball, so I thought a slow pitch game would be like any other softball game. While playing at third base, I was hit it the face with a line drive that barely tipped off my glove. My hometown doctor referred me to Dr. Kriet because of the seriousness of the injury. After looking at the CT scans Dr. Kriet told me that I had broken ten bones in my face and that my injuries were similar to ones that he had seen from car accidents. I was 17 at time, and ready to start my senior year of High school. Volleyball was around the corner and so were my senior pictures. I was scared that I would never look the same again, but Dr. Kriet and his nurse Becky White took me under their wings and let me know that everything was going to be ok. The staff was wonderful throughout my whole experience before, during, and after the five hour surgery. Dr. Kriet fixed my face like brand new! It was almost as if it had never happened. I stayed in touch with Dr. Kriet and Becky with follow up visits for the next year. The only negative thing I can remember from post surgery is finding out that I couldn’t run or lift over 20 lbs for 6 months, which meant no volleyball. However, I was back in the groove by the time basketball season came around. I am so grateful for what Dr. Kriet and his staff did for me. At 23, I am healthy. I don’t have any complications from my accident. No one ever believes me when I say that I broke ten bones in my face because there are no visible scars to prove it! I thank God everyday for the skill of the doctors and staff I had working on me. I wouldn’t be who I am today without them. Kelli
I have been a runner for a long time, and when people ask me what kind of runner I tell them, “I am not a fast runner, or a slow runner.” However, having said that, I have learned some principles of running, and one of them is to take the one mile or one telephone pole ‘at a time.’ Turning 50 years old was to me another flag pole, and I was going to take it just as running had taught me, this was a flag pole, a marker of a certain mile in my life. To say that I was prepared for the changes turning 50 years old had posed for me would be a moniker to the growth I was getting ready to experience. I believed in eating right, exercising, challenging myself intellectually, keeping a spiritual check on my life and short strings on resentments. However, the change I was beginning to notice in my complexion was not easily put into any of these categories. The physiological changes were there and no one wanted to talk about them. Menopause, hormones, and all the changes associated are usually whispered at a drug counter or a make up counter. Our best scientists are trying to figure out what we can do to lessen the negative effects of this significant stage of our life. I did not want to take commercial claims from make up counters or home distributors to leave my skin care up to chance. It is then I decided I really needed to do some research, and look for the most recent science about skin and cellular renewal. I went not only to the web to research but talked to friends about their experiences with the products they used, comparing their skin as to what they said was working for them. It was then I found through KU Medical Center, Dr. Kriet’s name listed as one of the ‘Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery’ professional staff. I had a mole on my temple that had started to develop as part of the changes, as well as discolorations and even shadows on my neck from the years of running. I decided it was there I was going to start, and have the mole removed just to be sure. I made an appointment with Dr. Kriet. He analyzed the situation and listened to my concerns, as well as my curiosity as to his advice in the best treatment for facial care. He took the time to discuss all my options, as well as my fears and anxieties about any skin care and non-surgical procedures. The appointment was made for the mole to be removed and he introduced me to his staff nurse, Becky White, who assisted with the removal of the mole. The two of them were very reassuring, patient, and answered the questions I had about my care after surgery, as well as my questions about skin care. I have always been so grateful, as Becky White, found the time to call as a follow up and just ask how I was doing the next day. During one of my follow up visits I met Dawn Swartz, ‘Facial Aesthetics’ and she talked to me about non-surgical skin care. It was then she explained the process of the skin care ‘Obagi’. I started Obagi about 4 years ago, and I have to say, I have not been the same since. The product made sense to me, it was a scientific approach to cellular renewal, and I understood the science behind it. I also knew it would be up to me to stick with it for it to work… Like running, I had to pace myself and the expectations I would expect from using Obagi over time. It worked! After a couple of weeks of watching my face shed what seemed to be years of discoloration and shadows as well as lines, the evidence was returning a healthier response to my skin care. My husband teased me, and said during the first couple of weeks, I peeled my face for a past time. However, he is still smiling, but he is no longer teasing. Friends approach me and some even ask if I have had surgical procedures. I smile and say, “not yet.” But the truth is, when I do, it will be with Dr. Kriet and his ‘Dream Team’, Becky and Dawn. They are so professional and personable, and even the front office would greet me with my first name, making me feel comfortable. When I had questions and anxieties about ‘chemical peel’ for the first time, or a ‘laser’ treatment, they listened and patiently answered each one; they have come to know me as the patient with a million questions. They are professionals whom over the course of 4 years have become friends, and even feel like family at times. There has been a huge relationship of trust, and confidence built with a team of ‘caring professionals’ with Dr. Kriet and his ‘Dream Team’, Becky, Dawn, and the ladies who greet you at the front desk. Friends ask, “Do you trust them, after all this is your face, no hiding there?” I smile and say back, it makes me feel a little more confident when I am out in public, at school as a non-traditional student, with my family when I advocate whole health. Yes, I trust Dr. Kriet, Becky, Dawn and all of the ‘Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery Dept.’ they are there as real people, real friends, real professionals, who CARE. Christine
I told my husband that all I wanted for my 50th birthday was to be able to have cosmetic surgery. Needless-to-say, for various reasons the surgery never happened. A few years later the company I was working for was closing its plants in Kansas City. So after working for 30 plus years and taking care of my family, I decided it was time for me to do something for myself. I had heard about Dr. Kriet from a friend so I decided to call his office and get an appointment. I went in for my appointment and left his office feeling very good about having cosmetic surgery. Dr. Kriet was very good at explaining the different procedures and what are reasonable expectations. His nurse Becky and esthetician Dawn were also very helpful with the process and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. When I got home I discussed my desires with my husband and he was very supportive and said “Go for it”! I then contacted Becky and scheduled my surgery. I arrived at KU Med-west the day of surgery feeling somewhat nervous but most of all excited. The entire staff was very helpful and made me feel comfortable. I remember waking up from my surgery and hearing Dr. Kriet say that I think you will be happy with the results. He was right! I could not have been more pleased. I have told both he and Becky several times, “This was the best thing that I could have done for myself”. Not only was I pleased with the outcome of my surgery, I feel like I have made new friends for life with Dr. Kriet, Becky and Dawn. Helen
On August 17, 2009, I was hit with a softball thrown by my varsity pitcher…and it came from “nowhere!” I have coached high school softball for 31 years and have never been injured while coaching. We were having an indoor practice and the situation was so shocking because there should not have been a ball traveling in the path to my face. It was like hitting a concrete wall without any warning. Wow…it stung!!! The ball hit me from behind on the right side of my face, causing an eye contusion and a broken nose. I immediately called for ice (cure for all athletic injuries) and a trainer. I walked to the coach’s office dripping in blood and was told the trainer could not be found. I wanted to be sure this injury was receiving the proper ice to minimize damage to my face. The tennis coach, whose mother is the school nurse, walked in. I requested to have her called. I then looked in the mirror for the first time and saw my nose on the other side of my face, not to mention the swelling and rainbow of colors already present on my face. I asked for someone to bring me a chair with a back on it; I thought I was going to pass out. I had my daughter called to come pick me up and alert our weight-training group that the party was off for tonight; didn’t think I was up to lifting weights. My daughter, trainer and nurse all arrived and off to St. Joe I went. The week involved workman comp appointments for my eye and nose. I told them I wanted good care to put me back together. I was in great hands when they sent me to Dr. Humphrey. I saw Dr. Humphrey for the first time three days after the injury at 8:45 AM. He said I was a perfect candidate for surgery and being within a fresh state of brokenness (to my nose), it would be a great fix and probably not need any incisions. He could go right up through the nose and put those pieces right back together. Sure sounded like a Humpty Dumpty story, with a much better ending. After many questions from me, and continual patience and kindness from Dr. Humphrey and his nursing staff, we scheduled surgery for the next morning at 6:30 AM. I was very nervous about surgery and Dr. Humphrey assured me that it would be very easily done and treated me with care. I know he does a lot of these, but this was a first and only for me and he took time with me like I was his only patient!! I remember the very personal, but quick and efficient care given by all involved with the prep for the surgery. I was very impressed with all whom I came in contact with. Dr. Humphrey came and talked with me before surgery and the next thing I knew, I was out of surgery and repeating to Dr. Humphrey over and over, “Wow…17 minutes…are you really already done?” No incisions were needed and the job was completed and done very well. When I came back for my follow-up check-up, Dr. Humphrey was very humble in asking me if I would be a part of the Grateful Patient Story Program and there was no hesitation on my part; he did a wonderful thing for me and I would gladly share. My experience was a very good one, not that I want to EVER break my nose again, but I definitely want to compliment Dr. Humphrey on a job well done and how much I appreciated how he handled himself and had such good bedside manner. I believe Dr. Humphrey to be not only very professional, but friendly and genuine while caring for his patients. It means a lot to have the care and dedication of a gifted doctor. I would like to say thank-you so very much for getting my nose back in the center of my face and, even more importantly, keeping everything light-hearted but with clear and straightforward information from start to finish. Best wishes with your newest member to the family, and I hope you can get some sleep between the baby and patients. Again, I am SO grateful that I had no complications and truly believe that the care of the doctors and their staff make a difference; you guys at KU are terrific!! Thank-you Dr. Humphrey; you have my vote for ENT doctor of the year!! Sue
I was experiencing some severe discomfort and health issues due to some previous injuries. The problem with my nose started with injuries which occurred when I was in pre-school and, again, while playing basketball in middle school. I had a surgical repair when I was a teenager but over time, the bridge of my nose had collapsed and I wasn’t getting much air through my nose at all. I had a deviated septum and the bridge of my nose had collapsed. It was difficult to wear eyeglasses due to the deformity and I was bothered by the appearance of my nose and really did not like to have my picture taken. I decided to see Dr. Kriet to address these issues. Dr. Kriet performed the surgery and I was pleased to find that I was breathing much better after just five days! The surgery itself was not as painful as I expected. The area of my rib where he borrowed bone to repair my nose bothered me more than the nose surgery itself. I am now breathing a whole lot better and am looking much better too. I am more confident when having photos taken and I feel better about myself and the way I look. Dr. Kriet has been wonderful to work with. He is always friendly and he makes sure that things are explained really well. He always makes sure that I follow up and it is easy to call the office if I have questions. Dr. Kriet, you are the BEST! Stephanie

I have been a runner for a long time, and when people ask me what kind of runner I tell them, “I am not a fast runner, or a slow runner.” However, having said that, I have learned some principles of running, and one of them is to take the one mile or one telephone pole ‘at a time.’ Turning 50 years old was to me another flag pole, and I was going to take it just as running had taught me, this was a flag pole, a marker of a certain mile in my life.

I was in your office a couple of weeks ago to have Botox injections. This was my first time and I wanted to let you know I was pleasantly surprised. Not only were you fast, explained everything you were doing as you were going along, but the results were better than I had expected. There was a visible difference, and I was delighted. You have a beautiful office and the atmosphere there is conducive to making you feel and look better. Thank you; I will be back!!
Please accept my thanks for being there for me and understanding my hesitation. My reservations on this surgery made my decision very difficult but after I spoke to you I felt more confident about undertaking such a major, and much to my delight I am extremely happy with my results and my expectations were more then met. I look forward to undertaking more facial revisions with you and your office. Thanks. J.T.
I was self-conscious about having such small breasts. I read about and thought about breast augmentation but was just too scared. But I thought about it for many years. One day I was surfing the internet and found Dr. Potparic's site. After reading Dr. Potparic's CV and the office's Mission Statement, I decided to call and actually scheduled a free consultation. I got cold feet and canceled my first appointment. But I kept thinking about it and rescheduled for the following week. I kept the next appointment and I'm thrilled that I did. I filled out the necessary paperwork then met with the staff and Dr. Potparic. The staff was more then helpful and answered all of my questions. They comforted me and helped to alleviate most of my concerns. Dr. Potparic was attentive and reassuring and listened with respect to my concerns about elective surgery. Following two more visits (I still needed reassurance) I decided that I was ready. It has now been six months since my surgery and I can't put into words how happy I am with the results. I can't imagine why I waited so long to have this life-changing surgery. I now have more self-confidence and feel better when people look at me. E.R.
Dear Dr. Potparic & Staff, I am writing to thank the doctor and his staff for making a somewhat daunting experience a very enjoyable experience. I had been somewhat hesitant about elective surgery but after having spoken to Dr. Potparic and his staff I felt confident enough to move ahead with my surgery. I had many questions and the doctor and especially his assistant were patient and understanding about my concerns, this of course help immensely. Once again, thank you. G.C.
I had a goal for plastic surgery, a flat stomach! I always felt embarrassed in a swim suit, slacks or a form fitting dress, basically anything. Someone my age 35 shouldn't have a huge amount of flab hanging off their stomach. I've tried exercise and diet over the years but nothing seemed to work. Plastic surgery was in my thoughts but I didn't think I could afford it. I saw your webpage and realized that I could look into this for no charge and had nothing to loose, so I made an appointment. After my second visit I decided to go ahead with the surgery. I met with Dr. Potparic who was very nice and made me feel very comfortable. The location was even convenient and the surgery went very well and I felt the follow up appointments were very personal and friendly. The staff was incredible. My recovery went well and my confidence level has just soared. I can not wait to go shopping for a new swim suit really new clothes, now! The advantages of using your office is the high quality, convenience and the surgeries are affordable. Dr. Potparic is first rate and treated me like a star. I am completely satisfied with my decision and would recommend it to anyone. FW
Dr. Potparic, I just wanted to take the time to Thank you for being so attentive and helping me through all my appointments and "good things" that I went through both before and after the surgery. Dr. Potparic, I am delighted with my results and I wish to let you know how much happier I am now that it is truly amazing and I have you to thank. I will be ever grateful to you. You have worked wonders and I am glad that you helped me to get to where I have always wanted to be, having thinner thighs and now I do, awesome. I can't thank you enough, and I not hesitate to recommend you if I or anyone else I know should or could use your services. I couldn't have asked for or wished for a better or more knowledgeable doctor. Questions were never a problem as you were there for me before and after and you reassured me continuously on the day of the surgery. You are inspirational and supportive comments were what kept me going. Your style and how delighted you were for me on what I looked like just a week after kept me going. Danielle, you couldn't have been more helpful or knowledgeable in helping me and answering my many questions. Thank you for scheduling the surgery for me and Thank you answering every question I had before and after I met with Dr. Potparic. Thank you for your honesty and sincerity in what you told me about the surgeries. Thank you for being so considerate and nice. THANKS!!! P.B.

"I will never forget the day I called your office and the receptionist happily reported that you would accept my insurance plan for breast reconstruction surgery. After a cancer diagnosis, a 4 week wait for all pathology report to inform me if it had spread to my lymph nodes, and after calling Plastic Surgeons in Grand Rapids for about 4 days, I was so excited that you were willing to meet me and discuss my surgical options. It was during the consultation that I could see that you were more than a competent surgeon. Your caring and loving attitude, which I experienced before each surgery and at every office check-up was evident from the start. My reconstruction experience has gone so well due to the excellent care I received from you." S.
"I sincerely thank you for walking me gently through this journey. The dignity you shared, sensitivity, extraordinary expertise, calmness and gentle smile made all the difference in how well I was able to accept and experience this life altering event.

Your gifted medical skill surpassed any possible expectation complimented by your serene nature is the true essence of an honorable physician.

"Thank you so much for your help, support, and amazing work with my breast augmentation! You and the entire staff of The Adams Center were terrific."
"I interviewed 3 different surgeons and I felt the most comfortable with Dr. Adams. I did not feel rushed or pressured, and I was always greeted with a smile. I am thrilled with my results and never in a million years expected my breasts to look so good and so real!"
"I wanted a surgeon that really cares and listens, and is compassionate. A surgical suite without going to the hospital was very important to me. I found it a joy to be treated in your office by all!"
"Dr. Adams and Staff,, My experience at your office was wonderful. You and your staff made me feel very welcome." N.
"Thanks for all the great care, and even better results!"
"A friend of mine and I both had procedures done about a month ago (within a couple of days of each other). We were having coffee yesterday, discussing our experiences at The Adams Center. She looked awesome and we just sat there looking at each other singing your praises."
"Dear Dr. Adams, I would like to thank you and your staff for your great services last month. I felt great from the first consultation to visit all the way through the surgery. Everything was wonderful, and of course most importantly, the result was fantastic. Thank you again, and I hope to return for more services in the future." E.
"I came to see Dr. Adams for my first consultation in the fall of 2004. Immediately his beautiful office, and friendly staff impressed me. Upon arrival, I waited no more than 5 minutes before his assistant Joanne brought me into a private room to discuss my procedure. We talked about it in detail and discussed all the pros and cons of the available options. I then met with Dr. Adams for several more minutes to make sure that I had no additional questions. From the moment I met him, I felt instantly comfortable and confident in his judgment. We worked out what we both thought was the best option for me, and he handed me a written quote for my surgery. I visited two other plastic surgeons, and The Adams Center surpassed them all. I had my surgery in January of 2005. The staff was extremely attentive, and the follow-up care was amazing! I had no complications, and everything turned out exactly as we had discussed. In my opinion, Dr. Adams is the best plastic surgeon in Boston, and among the best in the country. Since my surgery, my confidence has soared. Going to Dr. Adams was one of the best decisions I have ever made." A.
"Dear Dr. Adams and Staff, Thank you for your wonderful care and support. You’re a great team and I truly appreciate all you do." B.
"Dear Dr. Davis & Staff! Well! April 18th was a year since my surgery. I wanted to say THANK YOU for your good work and kindness that you all showed me! The changes Dr. Davis did to my appearance was absolutely fantastic! You all made me feel so comfortable and at ease with everything. I miss seeing you all and hope you all have a fabulous future! Thanks again!" A.M.
"Dr. Davis, Debbie and All~ What a magnificent Christmas gift! Thank you all for your care, encouragement and support as I faced surgery. The rough patches have been minimized and I am pleased with my results. Thank you all for everything!"

"Your professionalism, and compassion was very much appreciated. You have helped me regain the confidence I lost, and made me feel more attractive again. You took the fear way, and made me feel at ease." C.
"Dr. Davis and Staff: Thank you for providing the pleasant and positive experience I had with my eye lift. It was wonderful to find people who obviously enjoy their work. For those same people to be so good at what they do was an experience I won't forget. I would recommend you and your staff to any and everyone. Actually, I already have! Thanks again!"
"Dear Bill, I want to again take this opportunity to thank you for taking the extra time and care during my recent surgery. There is no question your "extra efforts" make the difference between an average job and an excellent job. I feel lucky to have found a surgeon of your caliber. Enclosed is an article I believe you were talking about during one of my post-operative visits with you." J.F.
"Dear Dr. Davis, It was good to see you on the way back from your Austin Smiles trip. Although what you did for me was significantly less important than what you did on that trip, I wanted to let you know how much it has meant to me. I feel 104 years old - and it's wonderful not to look it! Thanks."
"Dear Dr. Davis, Thank you so very much for the outstanding care that you recently extended to me. I am also most appreciative of your excellent medical counsel and expertise. I think that your professionalism and "generosity" serve as example for all of us! Sincerely in gratitude."
"Dr. Davis, Debbie, & Everyone! I just wanted to thank you for such a successful surgery. It being a first for me, I couldn't have hoped for a better experience. It's only been one week today & I feel great. You all were wonderful before, during & after my surgery & I truly appreciate it."
"Dr. Bill Davis & Staff, Your thoughtfulness and kindness is long remembered. Thanks."
"Dear Dr. Seare, First I must say I am amazed at my results. I was very skeptical that my results would look this good. My husband is blown away, you have taken 20 years off! Also thanks for checking up on me!" C.
"I just wanted to say thanks for the wonderful new look you have provided me. I was always very self conscious of my breasts and now I have more confidence. Your call after surgery to see how I was doing was very impressive. It is obvious you truly care about your clients. Thanks!" L.
"I'm following up via email as requested. The military decided they wanted to measure me today (Monday), so we did that and the measurement was just fine; I was well within what I needed. In fact, I measured in at 35 inches around the waist whereas I was 39-41 depending beforehand. I know you're away right now handling some unfortunate family emergencies, and I wish you the best with that. For what it's worth; you've made a very big, and cost-effective change in my life, and I wanted to be sure to say thank you for it again. I now await to see if the military will discipline me for getting the surgery (technically I'm not supposed to), but that's out of all of our hands. I have a feeling it will be fine, but in any case; I've got a body now that will keep me more mobile, motivated, and overall healthier than before, which is priceless. I would like to ask for any available pictures you can send me via email. I find it interesting to see the procedural steps, even though I was watching most of it during the process. Thank you again, and our family will keep your in our thoughts and prayers as well during your tough times." D.
"I have been a client of Dr. Seare and I would like to express my gratitude for his incredible patience and artistic approach to sculpturing my body with his personalized liposculpture techniques. I appreciated the patience, kindness and gentleness with which he practiced and the genuine concern for my health and well being. I have never a physician give his cell phone number to use in case of questions or complications and Dr. Sears made it a point to call me personally post op to be sure I was doing well. I would highly recommend Dr. Seare for any cosmetic treatment you might be interested in having done. S.L.
"Thank you for your kindness, It's very appreciated - I am so glad to have found such a wonderful doctor and caring staff! - Thanks"

"Dear Dr. Frazier I want to thank you so much for providing the nurse Tuesday evening. Your staff is outstanding! Thanks also for the lovely flowers. Your care and concern will always be remembered."
"Dear Dr. Frazier, I recently went to my home state N.J. and met a lot of friends and family. Their comments were always positive, (you never seem to get any older) I just smiled and thanked them. But I made a note to myself to write you a special thank you for raking such good care of me. A little nip and tuck does miracles when done by a competent and caring doctor. This letter is long overdue.
"Dear Dr. Frazier, I want to express my appreciation for the procedure on Friday. Thank you so much. You are a great doctor and a kind person."
"Dear Wyndee, I am so sorry its taken this long for me to write. Thank you for sending the sunscreen for Haiti. It worked great! No greasy feeling even with all the sweat and no sunburn!" M.
"Dear Wyndee, Just a little note to say 'thank you' for the CD of Susan Boyle. As I listen to it, I think of you and all the TLC you always give to me- I appreciate it so much." J.
"Dear Dr. Frazier, Thank you for the shot of Botox you gave me (at your expense) during my Fraxel treatment on Monday. I wanted to thank you there and then but my mind was just a little too foggy to cooperate with me. I am clear headed now and I want to thank you properly from the bottom of my heart to the bridge of my nose!. Thank you so much for your kind and generous gift to me." E.K.
"Dear Doctor Frazier, This comes to tell you thank you and then to tell you, too- The world's a better place because of people as nice as you! I am so happy & love my new look! Thank you so much!" J.T.
"Dr. Frazier and his working crew, You know, what you did was really special. So I want to thank you all for being as considerate and caring as you've been. It's not every day I come across people who are so thoughtful, so giving, so willing to jump in and make a difference. But you did. And I 'm really glad. I'm so greatful to you all - You truly make the world a more beautiful place to be. Many thanks." M.B.

"...I appreciate the beautiful job you did with my surgery and also for the "extras" you corrected to give me a finished product I would love."
"Please accept this small expression of my overwhelming gratitude for all you've done for my son, John...I thank God and I thank you for using your skill and expertise to save John's hand."
"There are not sufficient words to express my appreciation for all you have accomplished for me...People who have known me for many years stop me on the street and tell me how wonderful I look...Thank you, thank you!"
"...Thank you! I went swimsuit shopping...For the first time in years I had a choice in suits and felt good about how I looked...I ended up buying a two-piece!!"
"I have worked in the medical profession for more than fifteen years. So when I decided to have a surgical procedure performed my experience came in very handy in choosing Dr. Loutfy...Following my surgery Dr. Loutfy called my home to check on my status...I felt very confident knowing that my Doctor was only a phone call away." J.L.
"I researched my surgery extensively and interviewed many other surgeons; Dr. Loutfy clearly spent the necessary time answering my questions. I've since referred many friends..." L.B.
"I am amazed to find a Doctor in this day in time that still makes house calls." A.L. and T.L.
"Thank you so very much for taking extra time with me during my post-surgical recooperation.Your patients and understanding helped me while I was healing...I am very pleased with the results." K.S., R.N.
Dr.Gracia did a wonderful job with my BA! At the age of 30 and after having two kids I was ready for a breast make-over. Dr. Gracia made the whole experience virtually painless. He offered detailed explanations to all of my questions and never made me feel rushed or unimportant. His staff is always professional and efficient. I was most pleased and surprised by my speedy and flawless recovery!! I am now two months post-op and I love my new breasts! I would recommend Dr.Gracia to anyone considering cosmetic surgery. A.R.
Dr. Gracia and his staff are phenomenal. Dr. Gracia takes the time to make sure that all of you questions are answered fully. He is very patient and has a good sense of humor. He has the best staff, they really work hard to put you at ease and allay any fears you might have. I had a tummy tuck and absolutely love the results. I would refer him to anyone that is looking for a skilled plastic surgeon. L.T.
Dr. Gracia replaced my old implants and did a remarkable job. I'm so please with my new look and feel. He's just the best.
Dr. Gracia is a wonderful, caring surgeon. He never rushes you, he makes an effort to make sure the patient understand what he's saying, has a great, Friendly staff and lovely classical music playing in his office. I'm extremely Satisfied with my Z-plasty and my "back flab" removal. I'd recommend him to anyone. I never had any pain after the surgery, which amazed me! N.
My experience with Dr. Gracia's office was very positive. His staff was helpful & supportive. Dr. Gracia was professional & easy to talk to. My procedure went well & I'm pleased with the results. Very positive experience.
I just want to congratulate my Dr. On a fantastic job. Typically I wonder about reading reviews..wondering how real they are. But I am a critic, 100% pleased with everything. The surgery went smooth and my recovery was pretty quick within a week I felt back to normal. I love the size, incision and suggestion made by Dr. Gracia. He knows his profession! Thank you! J.J.
Satisfied with Dr. Garcia. I didn't get the results with the laser procedure I was expecting. M.
He is the best and the same for his staff, I love his patience, I love his job, i love it and i will recommend to all. R.H.
my experience with Dr. Gracia was very pleasant. he was very honest and genuinely cared about my well being. his staff was very polite and helpful during recovery. I've recommended him to several of my friends and coworkers after they have seen my results. i will definitely recommend him to anyone who is consider breast enhancements.. he's a genius at mastering the correct cup size to match your frame.
I went in for a consultation with Dr. Gracia. He took the time to ask what I wanted specifically, what options I have, he was upfront about prices. Other surgeons I'd gone to had said, in no unclear terms, that the type of implant used will be up to them. Although Dr. Gracia did order the implant I wanted, he also ordered a smaller size to see which would be best. Thankfully he went with the smaller one. The one I picked would've been way too big for my slender face. Dr. Gracia was also more affordable than other surgeons. The operation itself began exactly when it was supposed to and everything went very smoothly. The recovery is going well, and Dr. Gracia has been very helpful in letting me know what to expect and how long to expect it. I definitely would recommend him to others.
I visited Dr. W. Garcia's office for a small cosmetic procedure. The staff was extremely friendly as was Dr. Garcia. He and his staff made me feel very comfortable before and during the procedure. I intend on continuing to use Dr. Garcia for my cosmetic needs.
Dr. Gracia did my tummy tuck and I loved my results. I had scars on my stomach from a previous surgery and he took all the scars out. I will be going back to Dr. Gracia for another surgery and I would recommend him to anyone. C.G.S.
My visit with Dr. Walter Gracia was a positive experience. The staff are very nice. The office setting is very calming. My botox treatment has gone well. I am satisfied with the results.
Dr. Gracia did my lip augmentation with Juvederm injections and my results were exactly what I expected. Thank you Dr. Gracia! T.
Dr. Walter Gracia did DOT Laser skin resurfacing for me and the results are wonderful. Wrinkles are gone, skin tone has evened out, and my face looks 20 yrs younger. The procedure was very easy to tolerate. He applies some creme that reduces the feeling in your face. You can chose to have a mild sedative, too, but you have to have someone drive you home, so I decided not to use the sedative. And, I didn't need anything but the creme. The actual procedure took about 20 min, and I just sat in the exam chair. I was able to resume all normal activities (makeup, exercise, etc) in 3 days and the redness was diminished in a week. Make up covered the redness well. I love it and have many friends wondering what I did to make my face so rested looking.
Dr. Gracia did my breast augmentation 6 weeks ago today! I am SO incredibly thankful to him for helping me to finally feel good about my appearance! I will tell you that at first he seems very quiet and reserved, but DEFINITELY knows his profession and does a professional job! If I had to do it all over again, I would certainly choose him again. *The nurse I had at the surgery center also raved about him and how great he is! At this point, I have had 0 complications and am very happy and satisfied with his work! M.B.
I would like to thank Dr. Gracia for the surgery that he has done on me. And I'm very very satisfied because I never had any complications or any type of problems before or after surgery. And the recovery time was very quick, and I'm very happy with the decision I made about choosing Dr. Gracia to be my surgeon. Before I met Dr. Gracia I was scared about having any type of surgery, but once I came in for my consultation I was very happy the way he made me feel comfortable about having the surgery. I would recommend Dr. Gracia 100%. His a very excellent surgeon who keeps everything professional. And in the future I will be putting myself back in his hands. N.L.
Before I consider about having any type of surgery I was looking for a good doctor I was scared but after meeting with Dr. Gracia I knew I would be in good hands he keeps everything professional and made me feel at ease. Dr. Gracia did my breast augmentation and I also had the new laser liposuction and I love my results. He may come off as quiet or serious but his truly a very good doctor. D.L.
Dr. Gracia performed a breast lift with an augmentation and really did a great job. I am very pleased with my results and would highly recommend him. T.W.
Dr. Gracia did the laser skin resurfacing on my face and the results are amazing. P.W.
The Juvederm injection removed the lines at the corners of my mouth and between my eyes. After the injection, I had some redness in the injected areas, but that faded quickly. I had lived with the wrinkles at the corner of my mouth for 20+ years, and the Juvederm completely removed them. (or should I say filled them in) It is absolutely great. I plan on doing it again in a couple of years. I believe the results last quite a while, reading the on line information. You can also use the Juvederm to plump up your lips and get that Hollywood Lip Look.
I just had rhinoplasty 8 days ago i am so pleased w Dr Gracia , he was awesome , love the outcome , he really knows what he is doing , i had a nose that was hard to fix and he did a beautiful job , just returned to work today after 8 days , love the new me O.F.
Best doctor and staff ever! I used Dr. Gracia for breast augmentation and he works complete miracles. I recommend him to everyone and on your first consult you will understand why. Dr. Gracia and his staff make you feel very comfortable. I've never met another doctor that even comes close to comparing to him. Dr. Gracia drove in nearly a ft. of snow to the complete my surgery because he knew how important it was to me (and you know in Texas everything was cancelled). He even called me personally to check on me. This Dr. cares I knew from the first consultation I would choose him, he takes his time and listens and explains every detail of information you ask even if it takes hours. The day of surgery I was very nervous Dr. Gracia and the surgery staff made me so comfortable I felt like I had knew them years. They assured me I was just fine conversated with me and had me laughing at times. When I awoke from my surgery Dr. Gracia made sure I was not in any pain I actually was pain-free the entire healing process he made sure of it. I actually was able to have my 2 year old daughters B-day party the very next day after surgery and felt pain-free and even built snowmen with her outside (againist medical advice ofcourse). He provides awesome Follow-up care the staff call to remind you of appointments and check on you make sure your your doing alright. Trust me you will get treated like the most important patient ever Dr. Gracia and his staff see to it, I have never had to wait when I arrived more than 5 minutes to be seen there have been days when I was running late the Dr. Gracia and staff waited on me. Dr. Gracia is commited to his patients.If you can't decide on a surgeon go and meet Dr. Gracia and his staff look at his before and afters he's an amazing doctor. I look forward to more surgeries with this guy.Dr. Gracia has gave me my life back I can never thank him and his staff enough. C.Y.
"Dr. Zollman has made me feel like a woman again and proud of my figure. You see, unfortunately several years ago I had someone else perform the same surgery and I have NEVER been happy with the results. Even with a second try. So, for years I silently suffered and felt so depressed, I felt ugly inside and outside. My self-esteem was pretty low. Then when the implants began to deflate I was panic stricken. I would never go back to the first surgeon and then I remembered Dr Zollman's name and knew he did excellent work. Well, I went to him, had the surgery breast implants (taking the old out and inserting the new soft ones and I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER WITH THE WAY i LOOK NOW!!!!!!! MY HUSBAND LOVES IT TOO!!!!!!!!! He loved me before but now our love life and relationship in general could not be better, in fact, it has been better than I could ever imagine!!!!! I absolutely love my new beautiful look!!! Thank you so much Dr. Zollman and staff, you are all wonderful!!!!!!! Thank you for giving me my femininity and life back! Love to all of you!!!" A.
"Dear Dr Zollman and wonderful staff...!!!, After four c-sections, thyroid problems and a ton of work and dedication, my consultation with you and your staff changed my outlook on my life as a mother and a woman. I came in to the consult with a bad image of myself an how when looking in the mirror I hated what I saw looking back. I was referred to your office by my best friend who has used your experience and gentle hand to give her back what she had lost with bearing children an so it was my turn. I thought when I got there you would take one look and say honey I can't fix this, but you didn't and the kindness of the staff from the min. you walk in the min you walk out was pleasant and comforting. After the consult I scheduled my surgery and with the a little push my mommy makeover consisted of breast aug, tummy tuck and some lipo of those horrible saddle bags, and with Dr. Zollmans's experience guided me to add some of my own fat that he removed to give me a nice round, non dimpled backside!!! I wasn't sure and was a little nervous but knew he was an artist doing his magic. I am without words to express the thanks to you and your staff for giving me the ability to look the way I have felt on the inside for a long time! And to all the ladies that have doubts about adding to an dimpled dented flat or saggy rear side I have to say it's worth the outcome, I now look better in a bathing suit than in clothes for the first time in my adult life... I will be able to raise my four girls with self pride in how you treat your body and hope that with doing the right steps and living a active life they will feel as beautiful on the out as on the in. Thank you Dr. Zollman, Amy, and of course Katie for your kindness and open hearts to help me on my journey in life... I will refer any an everybody that has ever had or has the same or different issues that you can treat..... with lots of love." T.
"Dr. Zollman's years of experience shows! I am one of Dr. Zollman's massive weight loss patients. Dr. Zollman did abdominoplasty with a lateral lift as well as a thigh lift and brachioplasty. What I appreciate the most about Dr. Zollman is his honesty. He explained up front all the risks associated with my surgeries and although I wanted them done all at once, he would only do what he knew would be safe for me: therefore, I had to have more than one surgery. My results are amazing! Thank you so much Dr. Zollman." A.
"Dr. Zollman and staff are all incredible people. They rejoiced with me when my breast augmentation was a huge success. My enjoyment during close times with my husband has increased 10 fold. I am no longer self conscious about my breasts. I truly appreciated the personal way Dr. Zollman and staff treated my husband and how they treated me. I can honestly say that god blessed my life through the Zollman Center." C.
"I had my first breast augmentation surgery in 1993, which resulted in a deflation issue. After using two different surgeons and having three more deflation problems, I was ready to call it quits. I was referred to Dr. Zollman by a friend who used him for her breast augmentation. I was skeptical of all surgeons by this time, so I researched his website and spoke to several other women who had used his clinic for their surgeries. They were all satisfied with their surgical experience at Zollman Plastic Surgery. Dr. Zollman has done for me what two other surgeons and four surgeries could not. I am 100% confident that I have had my last surgery. Dr. Zollman and his staff are very professional and made me feel like part of their family. I would recommend Dr. Zollman to any woman or man who has had problems using another surgeon." A.
"My experiences with you have been great! I had an abdominoplasty with thigh lift and a breast augmentation. I loved it all! I can't believe the improvement in my self esteem. I am a massive weight loss patient also. So to be skinny again is great. Thanks." A.
"Thank you for making me feel whole for the first time in my life. I have much more self-confidence now, I feel beautiful in everything I wear. I love my breasts for the first time ever. My husband loves them also." A.
"Dr Zollman, I hope you are proud of yourself! You changed my life with my otoplasty surgery. No matter what I did to better myself, nothing helped because I just couldn't get past my feeling of being an ugly duckling. My ears stuck out all my life and I experienced years of torment at school because of it now I can show my ears. I'm not afraid when the wind blows anymore. Thank you, thank you, thank you." A.
"Dr. Zollman and Staff, I want to take the opportunity to thank you for doing such a beautiful job with my facelift. I am thrilled with my new looks. My teenage daughter thinks I look so much younger. I feel like it's Christmas! What a wonderful feeling to look like I've taken 15 years off my face. The results were perfect Dr. Zollman! I would recommend anyone to you. I have always looked forward to your office visits. You have such a great personality and so does your staff. I hope you're doing surgery for a long time Dr. Zollman, I can't imagine ever going to any doctor but you. Thanks so much! My results were exactly what I wanted. Perfect." C.
"Dr Zollman is one awesome man! Before my breast augmentation, I had flat deflated boobs. My teenage daughter used to pass down the bras she outgrew to me and the bras were still too big for my boobs. I had my "miracle surgery" in March 2007. On that day, my confidence level and self esteem FLEW through the roof! I feel so dang good about myself and my new body image. I'm loving life so much more! I'm a new person (literally) thanks to Dr. Wally Zollman. I should've done this years ago! Thank you so, so, so much!" T.
"Dr. Zollman, you and your staff have made quite an impression on my life. Since my mastectomy 11 years ago, leaving me with one breast, that basically disfigured me but you allowed me to look more positively at myself. Thanks for spending so much of your time and years developing your talent! You and your staff are great!" A.
"This note is to recommend Dr. John Bull as an outstanding doctor. After meeting with 3 doctors and hearing various prices, packages, and checking their references, I decided that Dr. Bull was the doctor for me. I chose Dr. Bull because he was not pretentious, nice and sincere in wanting to do the best job possible. My surgery took place between Christmas and New Year's 2004. Today, September of 2005, my breasts could not be more beautiful. Without any body fat and not having children, Dr. Bull was faced with a challenging body type to place breast implants into. He not only did an incredible job, but I would truly consider an upgrade. My breasts look natural. For those that meet me for the first time, they are stunned when they learn that they are new. My self image, which was fine, became enhanced and more confidence became part of my personality with the new breasts. If you are happy with who you are and are considering a breast augmentation, Dr. Bull should be the doctor for you. If you are considering surgery for yourself, please look to Dr. Bull for your source of improvement. I highly recommend Dr. Bull with a positive experience and no post operative complications. He was considerate, kind, and truly a perfectionist with his work and my body. His office staff expresses his philosophy of comfort, friendliness and an occasionally call, even months after the surgery-just to check in. Please feel free to contact the office for my name and number for a personal recommendation." L.W.
"I just want you to know that my experience with you and your office has really been exceptional; I appreciate and admire the way you run your office and your professionalism. When you go above and beyond to ensure a successful end result it shows the high standard that you hold yourself to. I have enjoyed the friendship that has developed as a result of having spent so much time together." D.B.
"My experiences with Dr. Bull along with his staff have been above my expectations. I had an office procedure and found that he and his staff are outstanding. I would recommend Dr. Bull of DuPage Plastic Surgery to everyone I know or anyone that is interested in plastic surgery. You will not regret your decision." S.G.
"Thank you and your staff for helping me through my recent surgery and for using the gift god has given you in a beautiful way. You have made a dream come true. I sincerely appreciate your kindness, understanding and professionalism. Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you!" H.B.
"I just wanted to let you know what a positive experience I recently had at your office. Dr. Bull’s obvious expertise, combined with his very down-to-earth and professional demeanor, completely redefined what I’d come to regard as an extremely uncomfortable, unpleasant procedure. Not only was the experience efficient and totally painless, but it yielded the absolute best result I’ve had to date – precisely what I had envisioned. Due to an exceedingly negative experience with another professional, I had no idea how much skill and consideration were actually involved (not to mention what a difference Novacaine makes when it’s injected properly)! Thanks to Dr. Bull for taking the time to listen carefully and then tailoring his approach to meet my individual objectives. I will most definitely spread the word." M.M.
"Thank you for answering the call last December and coming to Edwards to stitch my nose back together! (After I’d been bit by a large St. Bernard!) As you can see you did a Fantastic job and it’s healed well! I can’t thank you enough for doing such a superb job! You are amazing!" R.L.
"I cannot tell you how thankful I am for the work you did for me on my side. Thank you for doing the surgery on your lunch break, thank you for doing such an excellent job (it looks great), and thank you for your professionalism and mastery. Here is Jim’s book we told you we’d send your way. Enjoy it!" C. and E.
"I just wanted to say thank you so much, the results are outstanding! I can wear my bikini now." M.G.
"Dr. Bull takes the time to listen to his patients and that is why I like him. I have gone to him for over three years and the results are precise. Thank you." S.
"Dr. Lyle, I couldn't thank you enough for the change you've made in my life. I am so pleased with the outcome so far. Thank you again for making a difference in my life & I would highly recommend your practice to anyone. 'You've made my future bigger & brighter'."
"Dr. Lyle and the whole staff at Raleigh Plastic Surgery, Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job on my surgery! My self-esteem is already so much better! Thank you to everyone for being so helpful & friendly throughout the whole process. I couldn't ask for better!"
"Dr. Lyle and Staff, Thank you to everyone who was involved during my surgery. I am more than pleased with the results of your hard work. you do an amazing job and for that I am forever thankful."
"Dear Dr. Lyle, I want to take a moment to thank you for your compassionate and caring manner and your excellent professionalism. It has been a pleasure working with you on my reconstruction. Your patient advocacy is apparent as is your genuine concern. Again, thank you."
"Dr. Lyle and the Staff at RPSC, I would like to thank you very much for taking such excellent care of me during my recent surgery. I would especially like to thank the nurses who were very caring during my recovery."
"Dr. Lyle and Staff at RPSC, Thanks for all the kindness and support you showed me during my surgery. Everyone (Karen, Sue, Emily, and Melinda) was very helpful in answering questions and assuring me that everything would be okay. Dr. Lyle he's given me confidence in myself. I feel like a new person and I am very pleased with the results in my tunny tuck and breast surgery. I would recommend the practice to anyone. You all are not just a doctor, nurses and staff, you are my friends! Thanks a million!" L.G.
"Dr. Lyle and Lisa: To say "Thank you" for the excellent service and care given me during and after my recent surgery. I'll admit, due to the way I arrived at your office - without referral or knowing any of your patients, I was cautiously optimistic. But as time went on, my confidence increased. Lisa: You're just great. You made me feel so comfortable and made sure all my questions and concerns were satisfied. That is such a valuable trait. Thank you... Dr. Lyle: Your expertise and bedside manner is just outstanding - even with a knot in your head! I'm not at all disappointed with my decision to have the surgery. Before the surgery I just would not visualize what a difference the procedure would make. I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you both for a job well done." G.P.
"Dear Dr. Lyle, Just wanted to let you know how delighted I am with my surgery. My stomach looks so great and I'm down to a perfect size 8, I've gotten back into my routine at the gym and running again and it's so much more enjoyable (as much as that can be) because I'm not discouraged by my lopsided stomach."
"Your staff has always been so pleasant and helpful and especially Lisa - she's been a dream. What a patient caring person! I was always at ease as your patient and never the least bit nervous. Thank you so very much for everything!" C.B.
"Thank you for your kindness, taking care of me and for making me feel so good about myself. With sincere thanks for all your help." L.
"I have so much more confidence in myself and my self-esteem has sky-rocketed!" N.M.
Dear Dr. Grigoryants, I wanted to sincerely thank you for the beautiful job on my surgery; I could not be happier with the results. I appreciated your patience with answering all my questions, making me feel comfortable and preparing me for a smooth surgery. I also want to thank you for your quick response to my emails and phone calls and check ups to ensure that I healed well. I'm very grateful to you and your staff! Thank you, F.A.
Dear Dr. Vlad I can't begin to thank you enough for your time, concern and compassion. My result to date is absolutely what I had hoped for and I can honestly say that once again I am happy. Thank you for being so attuned to my needs, understanding, my concerns and above all else-being so very diligent in my care. V.N.
Dear Dr. Vladimir I don't know how to thank you for everything you did for me. My both surgeries went very beautiful and it was a dream come true. God Bless you. K.F.
Dr. Grigoryants I put all my trust in you and I was not disappointed. You did a great job! Thank you for being so caring. Sincerely, J.M.
Thank you Dr. Grigoryants for being the wonderful doctor and artist that you are. I am so happy with the results. Sincerely, E.F.
Dear Dr. Grigoryants, Thank you so much for everything you have done. This surgery completely changed my self -image...... Sincerely, S.A.
Dear Dr. Vladimir Grigoryants, I have to tell you how happy I am with the surgery that you performed for me. I had my upper and lower eyelids, my nose and my neck done. It has only been 3 weeks and I am totally healed without any sign that I had surgery.Even better, every friend or family member that has seen me cannot believe how great I look now. You are unbelievably good at what you do and I have never had a doctor who spent so much time explaining everything to me and making me feel at ease. You have really good bedside manner. I am recommending you to everyone I know that would like to pursue a cosmetic procedure. Thanks again. Cordially, V.A.D.
Dear Dr. Vlad, I just wanted to say thank-you for all you have done for me; my surgery was such a pleasant experience for me. I saw four other physicians to make sure that I was making the right choice, and I’m so glad I went and had my surgery with you. I wanted to enhance my look without making everyone look at my chest first! I wanted what all women want, to have the perfect size and shape. That is just what I got!!!!!! My mother was very concerned with this too, and she was made very comfortable when she came in on the day of my procedure. Your manager, Gus put her at ease from the start, and I felt very comfortable with the staff in the Operating room, everyone really showed concern and that really made me feel safe. I wonder if all plastic surgeons are like you, you seemed to really care for me as a person and not just a patient, not just a paycheck; I would have paid a lot more because of the way I was treated in your care. So I will just say thanks-you, and a big Kiss and hug! E.S.
Dear Dr. Vladimir, I had a mini neck lift. I could not believe my eyes when you printed out the before and after photos, I can not believe that was my turkey neck! The results are beyond my expectations…..I really have no words to thank you. When we discussed the surgery I was put at ease, I trusted your judgment, and you gave me no false hopes for the outcome, you told me about the complications, and what I would need to do to recover. I had very little discomfort, and today feel no pain at all. I felt secure and in a very safe environment, and that really means a lot to someone that has never had plastic surgery. Well I just wanted to say a BIG thank you. G.S.
"I would like to take the time to give gratitude to Dr. Jason Miller/Staff to let everyone know how extremely satisfied I am with my recent breast augmentation. It exceeds all expectations I had hoped and dreamed of." S.
"It has always been a pleasure visiting the Village Pt. people. I'm always treated like a friend and valued person. They always know my name before I say it and ask about previous discussions they have had in the past." M.
"I believe a positive experience depends in large part on the nurses, and, thus, on the connections made possible by the women at the front desk before and after a surgical procedure. Please, on my behalf, express my gratitude to Jackie and Rene for their knowledge, interest, and care; and to your receptionists for setting a warm, pleasant tone and for assuring that I was able to obtain information and reassurance as necessary." D.
"Thank you for all you have done and for taking good care of me. It didn't make any difference if it was a medical question or a billing question your staff was prompt and courteous." C.
"Dear Dr. Johnson, I want to express my sincere thanks. It was a difficult decision for me to undergo breast enlargement. I am so gland that I did. Finally, I feel I can wear the types of clothes that I want. Especially my bathing suit! It has really given my self esteem a boost. Thanks for a great result. It was well worth the trip to Omaha.” M.G.
"Thank you, Dr. Johnson, for an excellent result. Your mannerism and professionalism made for a very positive experience. I only wished I had had the breast augmentation performed years ago!” C.W.
"Dear Dr. Johnson, Thanks for everything. My husband and I really appreciate how warm and caring you and your staff were during this process. You came to us highly recommended, and I am glad we made the decision to have you perform my surgery.” S.E.
"It’s hard for me to express how thankful I am to Dr. Ferrari and all of his kind staff for all their help. I was initially very afraid of having surgery, but everyone was so professional, I felt at ease right away. Dr. Ferrari put in a special pain pump so I had some discomfort after surgery, but no real pain. I love the way my body looks now."
"After having kids, I never thought my breasts would look good again. Dr. Ferrari did an awesome job of lifting my breasts and giving them that youthful fullness they once had (and maybe a little bit more). I (and especially my husband) love them! We’ve nicknamed them "the Twins”. Thanks Dr. Ferrari!" D.H.
"I work in the same building as Dr. Ferrari and he is a good friend of my boss. So, naturally I was a little worried about my privacy. I heard so many good things about him, I felt I had to go for a consult. It was the best decision I could have made! Not only did I get a great result, but nobody at my workplace ever found out what I had done. I thank Dr. Ferrari and his wonderful staff for taking good care of me and keeping my confidentiality.” C.F.
"Thank you to Dr. Ferrari and staff! I could not be more pleased and excited about the "new” me! I was so wowed with everything about Premier Plastic Surgery Center, from the friendly and knowledgeable staff to the professionalism and artistry of Dr. Ferrari. I feel so lucky to have chosen Premier, and would refer anyone considering breast augmentation to them! Thanks again so much for treating me so kindly. This has really meant a lot to me!" W.S.
"I recently moved to Charlotte and a friend recommended Dr. Ferrari. About 6 months after my breast augmentation, I went to see a new gynecologist and he couldn’t believe I had implants because my breasts were so soft and looked so natural. He asked me for the name of my plastic surgeon and said he would be sending some of his patients who would be interested in implants. I’ll be sending my friends to him as well!” J.G.
"Before I met Dr. Ferrari, I was a waitress trying to break in to modeling. After my breast augmentation, I began modeling and have even appeared in national magazines. I love the way my breasts look and it has really helped my career. I have referred my sister and two friends and they have gotten great results as well.” S.B.
"My breasts had a very odd shape and three other plastic surgeons told me that they didn’t think they could fix them and make them look nice. Also, they all told me that I would lose my nipple sensation on both sides. Dr. Ferrari not only fixed my breasts with just one procedure, but I have also kept all of my nipple sensation on both sides! I am now proud to be seen in a swimsuit and my married life has benefited greatly from this. I can’t thank Dr. Ferrari enough and would recommend him to anyone wanting breast implants. If he could fix my breasts, he can fix anybody’s!” B.J.
"Excellent Care - beginning to end. Sensitive and attentive support staff. Great results. What more could one ask?"
"One of the most friendly offices that I have visited! The experience of the staff has made the entire procedure worth it!"
"Everyone was very friendly and informative, also professional."
"Staff is extremely courteous and respectful. Makes you feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable situation (such as having pictures taken)!"
"I recommend Dr. Lalikos often. VERY NICE STAFF!"
"We have been extremely pleased with the professionalism and courtesy of everyone from the receptionist to the doctor."
"Everything went fine!"
"Service is excellent."
"I was very impressed with the staff and specifically Dr. Sherrill! Thank you."
"Very happy with the way things are."
"You do make a difference in how this practice operates! I applaud all of you for the great work that you do and the wonderful patient care that you give!"
"Very happy with the way things are!"
"Deb deserves a raise!"
"This has been a wonderful experience. Dr. Castle is fantastic - already recommended him to a former colleague!"
"The nurses and NP's and MD are exceptionally nice and compassionate to my needs - I feel well taken care of - Thank you."
"Excellent care from Dr. Lalikos - Danielle's the Best!"
"It's been wonderful from my consult to now - Thanks you! P.S. until the next procedure!!!!"
"Dr. and Staff are kind, caring, professional and assuring at all times."
"My experience has been overall exceptional and will recommend this practice in the future. Continue the great work!"
"I had my croton oil peel done and I couldn’t be happier! It is truly a facelift in a jar. I was one who had a lot of smoker’s lines in my upper lip and crow’s feet. They are all gone. Would I do it again? In a heartbeat!" D.
"I’ve had breast reduction surgery a tummy tuck and liposuction performed at the UMass Memorial Cosmetic Surgery Center. Dr. Castle did a wonderful job of taking care of me through each of my treatments. He is a very patient and caring surgeon, and he and the center’s staff made me feel totally comfortable. I am extremely happy with the results of my cosmetic procedures, and if I decide to pursue any others in the future, I will, without a doubt, have Dr. Castle do the surgery!" L.
"I am so blessed with the results of my surgery. I had a large weight loss and had four children and needed some ‘help’ getting my body back. Dr. Rothkopf and his staff are wonderful. They were attentive and caring and provided great care before and especially after my surgery. I would and have recommended them to anyone looking to have cosmetic surgery. You are truly in good hands. Kudos to Dr. Rothkopf and his staff!" K.
"When I decided to have cosmetic surgery, I was looking for three things in a surgeon: quality, respect and comfort. Dr. Dunn and his staff far exceeded my expectation in all three areas. I went into the consult thinking I was going to check out at least two other surgeons. But I was floored by how warm, gentle and informative Dr. Dunn and his staff were. I never felt embarrassed or sad about my body. Every move was my choice and at my comfort level. Throughout the whole process, I was completely at ease. Dr. Dunn’s work was outstanding. He and his staff met my very high expectations. Dr. Dunn has truly changed my life." S.
"My experience with UMass Memorial Medical Center plastic surgery has been nothing but positive. I had lost a large amount of weight and, unfortunately, a lot of breast tissue. My 36C went to a 34B. I actually had two procedures done: a breast lift and a breast augmentation. All I wanted was my original size 36C back, and I made that very clear to Dr. Lalikos. I am thrilled to say that Dr. Lalikos gave me exactly what I asked for… they are beautiful!! I have to say that from my very first consultation to my most recent postoperative visit, everyone has been wonderful to me. The staff here are extremely supportive and always available. They were genuinely excited for me and put me at ease throughout the entire process. I can also say that they show almost as much happiness with my results as I feel. It was — and still is — a wonderful experience dealing with these great people. I wish anyone who chooses this office the very best, and you’ll get it." M.
"I can’t express how excited I am by my beautiful results! I feel confident and gorgeous thanks to Dr. Lalikos and her professional team. Thank you so much!" K.
"After years of debating whether or not I should have breast augmentation, my decision was clear after meeting Dr. Rothkopf & the staff at UMass. This team was extremely friendly and made me feel comfortable by educating me about the surgery. I am very satisfied with the results because my breasts look natural and more importantly feel natural!" C.P.
"My experience at UMASS Memorial's Plastic Surgery Center has been wonderful! From the initial consultation to surgery and thereafter, the entire staff, especially Dr. Rothkopf, have shown the utmost levels of professionalism, knowledgeable and comfort in my decision to have surgery. The results have been great. I am more than pleased!" A.P.
"Dr. Dunn & Staff, I just wanted to thank you for taking such great care of my pre and post operatively. I am thrilled with my results. Your staff was very supportive in answering all questions and making sure I was comfortable. Thank you again." J.
"I absolutely love how everything came out. I have more self-confidence than every before. Dr. Lalikos is amazing at what she does and I couldn't be more happy. Thank you so so much!! Everyone here has been so sweet to me. Thank you!!"
"Dr. Lalikos & Staff, Thank you so much. You all have been great & made me feel so comfortable. I LOVE my results. I have so much more confidence in myself and I owe it all to you. Thanks again."
"To Dr. Dunn & Staff, First, I'd like to say how "welcoming and comfortable" you made me feel from the first appt. I came in looking to have a tummy tuck & breast lift. Dr. Dunn was very knowledgeable and his staff offered me tons of info on th e procedures and recovery. The day of the procedure I was taken care of like a princess. They were amazing tending to my every need like I was there "only" patient. The outcome was above and beyond what I could have expected. I look and feel like a ROCK STAR. All I can say is that if you're thinking of any procedure he is the "ONE" and "ONLY doctor to go to"!! Thanks for making me feel beautiful again."
"Dear Dr. Dunn & Staff, I can't thank you all enough for the wonderful care & consideration you have all shown to me in a very difficult and uncertain time for me. Everyone, from the reception desk all the way through the office and on to the surgical staff - you have all been wonderful care givers. I am so happy and pleased with the results, and I am certain, as I continue the healing process, I will only be happier. Dr. Dunn - you are a gifted & wonderful surgeon and I am very fortunate that you were."
"My personal decision to undergo liposuction is one of the best life choices I could have made. The doctor and her staff are incredibly supportive & professional. At 55 they've helped me regain my personal confidence and a great new attitude. So glad I sought her out and her expertise."
"Dr. Dunn, I just want you to know that by God's grace, you have brought joy into my life. I know I was a bit skeptical about the result, but now I just cannot stop staring at myself in the mirror. I am so happy & I feel so complete & it's all because of your work. Because of this, you, Dr. Raymond Dunn will always be in my prayers for God to be with you in all you do... Thank you so very much they are amazingly beautiful!!"
"Dear Dr. Andreasen, It was my pleasure to finally meet you since I had so many girl-friends tell me about you. I did meet with other plastic surgeons before meeting with you to have something to compare and contrast the experiences with. I am extremely happy to say you are by far the best one for me. Not only am I confident in your work I am now extremely excited to get this done. I had so many questions I was stumbling with where to start, and throughout the consultation you did answer them all. I am really looking forward to this and I can express to you how relieved I am to finally feel comfortable with a doctor. Finally I must compliment your staff including your professional and intelligent wife. Thank you." W.
"Dr. Andreasen, Your work is amazing. I feel so blessed to have been referred to you. You are a true artist of your work, I could have never imagined being this happy with my results, especially so soon after the procedure. Thanks!"
"Dear Dr. Andreasen, Thank you so much for your wonderful work. You ahve made me more confident in myself which means a lot. I am enjoying my new addition and it's because of you. Thank you again."
"Dr. Andreasen, Thank you so much for all your help in making this very important decision. Your staff was very welcoming and so sweet. Your honesty is very refreshing and I look forward to soon scheduling my surgery!" C.
"Dr. Andreasen, I thank you for the e-mail and for giving me the chance to meet with you. I am still very excited about the surgery. I have had a few people tell me to check out other doctors with cheaper costs but am not interested at all. I am very insecure when it comes to certain parts of my body and i felt very comfortable and sure that I wanted you to do this surgery. Thank You." A.
"Dr. Andreasen, While it would be so freeing to be rid of some of this fat that has haunted me for years, I had to come back to reality. My reality is that, while my mother is still alive and requiring care for her Dementia I just can not be so selfish as to use finances that could be needed later on, for her care. Now enough of that and to the point of my email; while I can not personally recommend your results, I most certainly can and have recommended your consultation visit and professional manner. It is a very difficult thing to stand in front of someone that is examining the parts that you are the most disgusted with. You made that experience so much less scary than expected by being so professional, knowledgeable and real. I hope to be able to take advantage of your expertise some day but in the meantime I will be more than happy to send friends/colleagues your way! Thank you so much for the time you spent with me explaining procedures, results and options. It was also very refreshing that you did not make me feel like I was taking too much time or that I was wasting your time if I did not book surgery right then and there. Very Impressive!"
"Thank you so much for all that you have done. You and your staff are truly wonderful."
"Dear Dr. Andreasen, Thank you for a great surgery. I feel wonderful. I will always remember your honesty. Kindest regards."
"Lori & Dr. T, So, so excited! Thanks so much for being so kind and informative at my consultation. You really helped make this an easy decision. I look forward to my surgery on August 4th! I'm sure we'll talk again before that. Until then, enjoy the summer!"
Dr. Andreasen and Staff, Thank you all for everything you have done to help me from beginning to end with the breast augmentation process. I came in knowing this was what I wanted but still had so many questions and concerns. No one hesitated to answer each and every single questions. I appreciate the time taken to make me feel comfortable. Your office and choice of surgical center are absolutely amazing. I could never be happier with my results, and the compliments I have been given make me so proud to refer you. Thank you!"
"Dr. Andreasen, I understand that you see many patients on a daily basis, but I wanted tot aekt he time if not only for a brief moment to express to you how truly grateful I am in meeting you. For so long I have lacked confidence in myself and my body, but thanks to you and your magic touch my opinion is gradually changing. You have not only transformed my outside, but you began to heal my inside as well, which is a greater attribute. I will forever be grateful to you and your amazing abilities. Thank you Forever."
"Dr. Andreasen, In my eyes there is not a better doctor than you. I thank God for blessing you. I thank you for sharing the blessing with me."
"Dr. A, I am very pleased with the work you completed on my breasts. I found you to be a very sincere, caring and personable physician. Please never loose that. You make each of us feel special. I thank you so much for making the surgery a very smooth ordeal. You will always be my first choice and my first recommendation."
"Not a day goes by that I don't think of what you've done for me. Dr. Andreasen, your vision, precision and care are remarkable. Maria, before I fell asleep you comforted me and have always made me feel comfortable. You are a good team and your work is outstanding. Endless thanks for my new & improved body and spirit!"
"Dr. Andreasen & Staff, "Thank you so very much" for your patience and cooperation with my bank and payment issues. I'm so grateful that I did not have to reschedule my surgery. Thanks again for your flexibility."
"Dear Dr. Andreasen & Staff, I will certainly send family & friends in your direction! Your kindness, concern and support with my decision to do the MRI meant the world to me! Watch the mail for some "Christmas Cheer" and a toke of my gratitude."
"Dear Dr. Andreasen & Staff, I wanted to thank you all for everything you have done. My reasons for plastic surgery weren't for enhancement (although that is a nice bonus), it was to correct a deformity that has inhibited me my entire life. You all treated me with dignity and kindness and were sensitive to my situation. I felt very comfortable and confident with Dr. Andreasen that you understood my expectations and you more than exceeded them. I am so pleased with my results and I know that everything is just going to keep getting better with time! I will always recommend you to everyone. Thank you for changing my life. Warmest thanks."
"Dear Dr. Andreasen, As I'm preparing to leave for Italy, I want to thank you for sending me off with no worries! I am feeling very well and am confident that my body is healing itself now that the implants are out. Thank you so much for everything that you invested in this process with me. Through everything you have provided me with excellent care, which I have truly appreciated. Your manner is very kind and even though sometimes I was a little sad, I never was scared or worried about surgery (Ok the last was a bit scary because I was awake!). Thank you for your Christian attitude towards care. Your entire staff are kind and efficient and made everything so easy. I look forward to the possibility of trying again in a few months! With Gratitude."
"Before I begin to write the story of my "boob job nightmare", I want to tell you that you have come to the right place!! Words cannot possibly express how grateful and thankful I am for Dr. Pousti. He came highly recommended from the Allergan representative himself who deals with hundreds of surgeons monthly. I saw 7 different surgeons before Dr. Pousti, none of whom I felt knew how to fix symmastia. I had 7 different opinions on what needed to be done! I decided to wait until I found the right Doctor. I had my first breast augmentation in 2003 with saline implants after nursing my son for a year. They were terrible. Way to small, bottomed out, and severely rippled all the way around. I could not even wear a v-neck t-shirt. I had my second surgery in 2004 with larger saline implants. I immediately noticed the skin over my sternum was raised and that the implants were low. I went to see the Doctor many times and he said this was because I am thin, and this is normal. I did my research and found out I had symmastia. The worst news about this is you can not enjoy your breasts in a bathing suit, sexy bra, low cut shirt, NOTHING!! It's a terrible thing to experience, and can be pretty emotionally debilitating! I had another baby and nursed him for 15 months. About 2 months into nursing him my right breast started deflating. About 8 months later my left breast started deflating. I had gone to see Dr. Pousti right when I noticed the Right breast leaking and knew immediately that when the time came I would have him do the repair. He told me at our first meeting that I would have to be finished breastfeeding for 3 months before I could have surgery. I began to have pain when the deflated implant would travel across my midline, and into my armpit area. I went to see Dr. Pousti and he was very sweet, and confident. A few weeks later, I had the surgery and trusted 100% in Dr. Pousti's expertise. The nurse and anesthesiologist both told me he is the best surgeon they have ever dealt with, and I was in great hands. That says a lot since they work in a surgery clinic! The healing process takes discipline and patience. But is worth it! I am 11 weeks out of surgery today, and my breasts are @%#^* BEAUTIFUL!! Too bad no one gets to see them naked except my husband, and Dr. Pousti!! I am sooooooooo excited to be able to wear normal bathing suits, and any outfit I want without having to constantly be checking my chest. I know this is a long story, but seriously if you are scared, and have doubts about getting revisionary surgery done, I understand! Dr. Pousti is trustworthy, gentle, knowledgeable, and most important COMPETENT to perform the revision! Thank you Dr. Pousti, and staff!! You will forever be special to me. You probably don't even know how much I appreciate what you have done for me! These are the breasts I always wanted!! I had nearly a dozen consults over the years before I finally decided to have breast augmentation surgery in 2007 at age 34. I chose to have my surgery in Alaska where I live (basically for convenience). I was extremely unhappy with my results and my surgeon's lack of desire to address my concerns. I finally obtained a second opinion and was told surprising facts about my surgery that explained many of my issues. I also received confirmation that the recommendations provided by my plastic surgeon were not going to solve the underlying problems. I was heart broken. I had many concerns going into this elective surgery. I had put much trust in my surgeon and felt betrayed by her. I wanted to have revision surgery, but was scared to trust another surgeon. I had been blogging on several of the popular plastic surgery websites and Dr. Tom Pousti's name kept popping up. Patient after patient told their stories of surgery nightmares and how Dr. Pousti was able to correct their problems and restore their broken spirits. I could not ignore their testimonials, so I researched him myself and decided to go about planning the revisionary surgery. First, I e-mailed his office and was shocked to receive a call from Dr. Pousti himself the very next morning! I e-mailed pictures and we discussed the revisionary surgery a few more times over the phone. His office staff was extremely helpful and quickly responded to any questions I had regarding the surgery and planning my trip. I met with Dr. Pousti the afternoon before surgery and had a completely successful surgery in the morning. I cannot thank Dr. Pousti and his caring staff enough for all that they have done for me! My breasts are healing beautifully and the results already far exceed my expectations. Dr. Pousti has true compassion for his patients. This is evident in the manner in which he treats them and the skillful work he performs on them. He is an impressive surgeon and artist and a truly kind person. I would recommend him to ANYONE considering plastic surgery. He is definitely worth any amount of travel. His office now considers me part of their "family" and I am proud to be associated with such an impressive team! Dr. Pousti and his office and staff met every expectation I had, and ones I didn't know about beforehand. I was referred by a friend on a support group message board, and after researching online, called down to his office, and started the process. I had found that there were no local surgeons that were experienced in going even remotely "large". I called the offices of at least 10 surgeons in the Austin area, and not one had much experience going over 500cc's. When I said that I was looking for 1000+, none of them were even interested. And I'm glad they weren't, or I would have never looked outside of my local area. Looking through Dr. Pousti's before and after pictures for XL breast implants, I quickly came to realize that he had amazing skills, not only in the smaller sizes, but in making girls look great with well over 1000 cc's. I asked to go with as many CCs as was safe in terms of my health, and to reduce or eliminate the gap between my breasts, which was especially bad when I would lay down. After my first breast enlargement with a different doctor, my left implant moved so badly to the side, I felt very self-conscious about it. After my surgery with Dr. Pousti, which included an internal bra procedure as well the 800cc implants overfilled to 1200cc, I have amazing cleavage! If you want a doctor who works well with out of state patients, and who has an incredibly helpful staff, and explain things in detail, then you need to seriously consider Dr. Pousti. I feel that I should have gone with him originally, and I would have been much happier with my results, and my self-image. He truly knows how to take your concerns and desires in mind, and try to give you as close to what you want as possible. There are so many doctors who want to talk you out of what you really want, because they don't think like they can do it, but I never got that feeling with Dr. Pousti. He truly cares about making sure that you are happy, and that at the same time, he does the best job possible! There are a bunch of amazing hotels nearby to Dr. Pousti's offices, from high end, to affordable, yet extremely comfortable and nice. His office was very helpful in making my decision on where to stay, as well as accommodating my more limited schedule, due to the amount of time I could spend in San Diego before flying back." A.R.
"Prior to reading please note: "before" pictures were taken after nursing two children. My "before" pictures taken prior to nursing my children showed much more significant bottoming out and symmastia. My breasts "sagged" some after nursing and actually hid the full extent of the problem. I refused to give up hope! I knew there had to be a doctor somewhere that could achieve my desired results. I would not believe poor implant placement was a problem that could not be resolved. If I went braless, or if I was without a padded bra or padded swimsuit, you could easily see my implants were low and off center by my nipples being high. I also experienced my nipples coming out of the top of some bras and swimsuits because my nipples were too high and my volume was too low. At the gym, at the beach, at clubs,... even at church, you begin to notice nipples! Why are nipples even? Why aren't they pointing out or to the side? and Why are mine?... it is because my implants aren't in the correct place! How difficult is it to place and secure an implant in the correct position so my nipples will shine straight ahead? It wasn't that I walked around trying to show off my nipples, but I sure didn't like having to worry about them all the time! Then my secondary problems... as I nursed two children, I developed some "loose skin". If I am going to have a correction... well... let's correct this also! And,... during nursing, one areola became larger than the other, we'll fix that while we are fixing. After five procedures (total procedures prior to Dr. Pousti) I knew #6 (my last attempt) had to be performed by the best revision doctor... as there would not be another correction attempt. After searching on the internet for years (really!!.. about 5 years I researched during which time I breast fed my two children), and consulting with surgeons all over the U.S (Florida, Chicago, Dallas, California), Dr. Pousti was by far the man for the job. My decision was based mainly on his "before and after" photographs on his website. Doctors told me what they would do. Doctors told me what my results would be. Doctors told me what their skills were. Doctors professed their revision expertise. When I asked these Doctors to show me photographs/results of their work... they might show one or two patient pictures. Dr. Pousti had many pictures to prove his words... and pictures speak a thousand words! His website displayed dozens of breasts that displayed similar symptoms as mine (both more and less extreme than mine), but were corrected by Pousti. This is what he does... he's a "fixer". It also helped that Pousti said I could go larger to fill my loose skin and that I didn't need a "lift" as other doctors told me I might need to go with a smaller implant with a "lift" to achieve my desired results. Office staff, hospital staff, Dr. Pousti... they are all great, but I really wasn't concerned about emotions and beside manner. I didn't fly half way across the U.S. for a congeniality contest. I wanted results! In my opinion, the trip and procedure was expensive, but well worth the money spent!! I wish I had found Pousti years ago and saved several revision attempts and wasted money. This is being written 6 months post-op, and at this point I could not ask for better results." H.H.
"Dear Dr. Pousti, Thank you very much for all of the help and support you and your staff have given me. You made my experience a very positive one that culminated in an absolutely beautiful result! I can not thank you enough. Please join me for a skydive as my way of saying thank you. All of my best to you and your family." R.M.
"Thank you! You've made me feel relaxed and at home during my stay in San Diego. Thank you so much!" J.
"Dr. Pousti, I cannot thank you enough for the work you have done for me. My asymmetry has been a huge downfall of mine for so long & now to have it corrected is truly a dream come true. Not only did you correct my issue, but you really made a masterpiece. I am truly in awe & owe so much gratitude to you. Thank you so much for this life changing experience, it will never be forgotten. You are so gifted & so many others are lucky to have you as their physician. Thank you for doing what you do - you are appreciated more than you know." T.W.
"Dr. Pousti & Staff, Thank you so much for all that you gave me! I have never felt so comfortable being in the hospital! You and your staff are the best! Thanks for everything!" C.
"Dear Dr. Tom Pousti and All Staff (LaMesa, La Jolla), I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you did on my breast replacement. I will definitely recommend you to anyone I encounter who is interested in this procedure. You're the best!! Ps. Your staff is amazing! You guys are such caring and professional people. Thank you Vanessa, Daisy!! and Cassie! Take care." A.V.
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart. "All of you" treated me so well. You made my dreams come true. Thank you."
"Dr. Pousti & Staff, Thank you so much! I love the look, and can't wait for them to be all healed up. I also want to thank you for keeping me safe! And the flowers were so beautiful & kind. Very much appreciated. THANK YOU!" A.H.
"Dr. Pousti & Staff, Thank you all for being so professional and courteous. I am very impressed by all who called and those who answered all of our questions & concerns. You all have gone above and beyond the limits of this type of health care. Dr. Pousti - your care for my daughter was a blessing! God bless you!" L.S.
"I had met with many plastic surgeons in my area who said it would be "too difficult' to incorporate my C section scar into the tummy tuck scar and that a breast lift was definitely needed. I just wasn't comfortable with any of them and felt like I didn't really need all that work. After research, having a friend see Dr. Pousti, and talking to him via email, I decided to spend the extra time and money to travel to have him perform my surgery. I had instant faith in him when we met, something I had not experienced when meeting with other plastic surgeons. Dr. Pousti successfully used my C-section scar (which was a lot lower than most and very crooked) in my surgery so that I now only have one scar on my lower stomach and performed the augmentation without a lift. He was truly dedicated to the result I wanted and minimized my scars. When I eventually had to leave town and return home post-surgery, Dr. Pousti made me promise repeatedly to check in as soon as I got there. He said he would be worried until he heard I was okay. I've never met another doctor like him. I had extreme stretch marks from giving birth to full term twins, ALL GONE! My stomach looks better than it did before my kids. My scar on my stomach is incredibly light and much better than it would be. I couldn't be happier with my results. I recently became pregnant again. I wouldn't advise doing this post-tummy tuck HOWEVER, my stomach looks great! I went in for my 18 week appointment and my OB was amazed at how fabulous my tummy tuck was. My belly button is perfect. Although she has been involved in many of these surgeries herself she said that mine was the best she'd ever seen. I couldn't recommend Dr. Pousti more highly. He is very dedicated and makes the patient feel really comfortable. He and his staff are available to you before, during and after the work and recovery are done."
"Dr. Pousti & Staff, I want to thank you for everything that you have done for us. My wife has so much more confidence. I am so pleased with my procedure. You have taken years off my life! We both feel blessed that you were out doctor. You are a very caring and compassionate person. Also, we would like to say that you have the most friendly staff. They always put us at ease. See you in 3 months."
"Dr. Pousti, I can't thank you enough for the way you have treated me throughout this experience. Your calmness, honesty, professionalism, & concern are greatly appreciated. You were very compassionate, particularly as I was being put to sleep for surgery & I was very scared. I will be happy to refer clients to you for your outstanding service. Your office staff is also exceptional & I thank them as well. Thank you!"
"Dr. Pousti & Staff, Thank you for the smiles, the self esteem and the new me!"
"To my favorite Dr. Pousti, The first time I came in with my husband to you office, I felt comfortable and welcomed. Your staff was very friendly and the best people too. When I finally met you, I knew right away you would be the ONE, my surgeon. Dr. Pousti, I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking such good care of me. I love me new breasts and if its not from you, I don't think I would love my body as much as I do now. Thank you for spending all those times talking and answering all my questions, even though some of them made you blush a couple of times. Please accept this small gift with my sincere appreciation. Thank you so much, Dr. Pousti. You are the BEST!! Lots of Love."
"Dear Dr. Pousti, It's been 2 years since my breast augmentation surgery, and this letter of appreciation is way overdue. I guess the best way of describing how pleased I am with the surgery is by stating how carefree and pleased I feel about my appearance. Before my surgery I used to feel very differently. I felt embarrassed, disproportionate, almost deformed by my time breasts, which didn't fit the rest of my body, which was rounded and feminine. Clothes didn't fit very well, and padded bras didn't help me much at the beach or worse, with my clothes off. I heard of Dr. Pousti from a close friend, and I decided to accompany her to a post-surgical appointment. She'd told me about how attentive, thoughtful and capable he was, but meeting him personally really convinced me he was the right doctor for me. I saw Dr. Pousti at least 3 times before the surgery. I also spent a lot of time describing to him what I wanted and what I didn't want. He was infinitely patient, and made sure I knew exactly what i wanted and that I was convinced that surgery was the right things for me. The one thing I impressed upon Dr. Pousti was that I did not want large "American" breasts. I didn't want people to know that I'd undergone surgery, and my quest wasn't for large, it was for normal. I come from South America, where woman are not typically top heave, and I didn't want to stand out. I just wanted to have breasts, look proportionate and feel normal. Dr. Pousti assured me he'd respect my wishes and wouldn't make me "big". Dr. Pousti also made sure I had the opportunity to interact with other patients, personally view the results of their surgeries, and ask them questions about their procedures. The opportunity to interact with patients was invaluable, as it once again confirmed to me that Dr. Pousti was the right surgeon for me. It also set my mind at ease about the surgery and the recuperation. I was a little nervous on the day of the surgery, but between my boyfriend and Dr. Pousti holding my hand, I just floated onto the surgery bed, and the next thing I knew I was awake and on my way home. The road to recuperation as a lot easier than I'd thought, and within two weeks I was already pressing Dr. Pousti's staff to allow me to go running. Dr. Pousti and his staff were also there for me after the surgery. They called to check in on my the day after the procedure, and saw me during the post-op consultation, where time and again my questions and concerns were answered. Would I do it again? No doubt about it. Surgery has given me priceless freedom from the embarrassment and concerns that I felt about my breasts. Do I have a perfect body? Far from that, but I feel normal in my own eyes, and I no longer feel concerned about how I look in the street, at the beach or in the shower. Thank you, Dr. Pousti and staff, for all you've done." J.
"Dr. Pousti, At our initial consultation I took with me two phrases of yours; "Class A" & "No Worries". While they may have been the shortest of your words that day, they were in fact the most profound. When you spoke of dealing with a "class A" surgery center, anesthesiologist, surgical team and of course office staff, you were definitely speaking of a choice facility and if I had to guess, a hand-picked team of people. Your office girls are exemplary. Every time, all the time. They give 110% every time I call or walk into the office. That was one of my top 3 things I was looking for when choosing a doctor. The anesthesiologist, Dr. Rose, made me feel completely at ease and the surgical nurses were some of the sweetest people I have ever met."
"Dr. Pousti, I wanted to let you know how much I have appreciated being your patient these last 9 months. From prior to surgery to post op and until now you have been caring and always available to address any desires or concerns I have had about my surgery. You are a wonderful surgeon that I would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you for allowing me to have a very positive experience every time I visit your office. Ps. Your office staff is very pleasant to work with as well."
"Dr. Pousti & Staff, You are a rare find! From the moment I met you I knew you were the chosen surgeon. Your loving patient care is above the rest. Thank you for the flower arrangement I received after surgery. What a "kind" gesture. A special "Thank you" to "ALL" of your wonderful staff. They always smile & greet me with a warm welcome. You are all spectacular!"
"I have been meaning to write this letter for about 3 months now. I had to let all of you know how extremely happy that I had you perform breast augmentation surgery on me. It was the best thing that I have ever done for my self esteem and my overall appearance."
"The doctor and staff treat you as a friend instead of a patient. They remembered my name after just the first visit. I never wait long and yet I always get quality care." S.
"Your note you sent was wonderful. She was really impressed."
"Dr. Crais, A little saying for you from me that fits you perfectly: 'Many people will walk in and out of our lives, but only true friends will leave footprints in our hear.' 'To handle yourself, use your head' (This you do very wisely) To handle others use your heart.' (This you fantastically do) Dr Crais, they threw away the mold when they made you...Love ya!"
"Dear Dr. Crais, I want to thank you for being such a kind and thorough doctor. I was so relieved when I left your office. I felt like I had a partner on my team to help keep my healthy. In these days of hurry and machines, you are truly refreshing. Thank you so much! I look forward to many years of relationships as your patient."

"The SFCFCS has given me the confidence to finally walk with my head high. I had recently lost 40 pds, however, I still wasn't able to get rid of my inherited big hips. After I got my Smartlipo, I was able to wear whatever I wanted, including a bikini, without worrying about the dreaded "muffin top". Nothing in the world could replace that feeling. I have never felt better in my life! This was a life changing experience!" Ivy
"WOW! I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am with South Florida Center for Cosmetic Surgery!!! For years I'd heard about cosmetic surgery but was scared to death of it. After talking to the Doctor I just felt like I was going to be in great hands. Talk about experienced he had done hundreds of these procedures. I just trusted him. I went in on Friday morning and was back to work on Monday morning. WHY DID I WAIT? I FEEL SO GREAT! My husband says "I think they hit the on switch". All my clothes fit without any flab hanging over. Having to be in the public eye, the South Florida Center for Cosmetic Surgery has changed my life and I don't mind telling everybody. I have recommended South Florida Center to all my friends. Ya'll are great!" Darlene
"In May of 2007, I was on the cover of People Magazine for losing 100 pounds.

After meeting with him, I felt confident that he would do a great job. He did! His technique revealed a very faint scar. I was please and he is highly recommend." M.N.
"Dr. Mitts is an AWESOME plastic surgeon in Visalia: I had one surgery with a Dr. in Visalia in 2001 & I wasn't too happy with my results. I heard of Dr. Mitts and another popular Dr. in Visalia & I decided to go with Dr. Mitts not only because he was very experienced & other friends had real good results but I loved his staff. They made me feel real comfortable & were very nice to me!!! I would like to add, the staff has patience with all my calls and questions I had. The other Dr. I had a consultation on August 22nd & they did not make me feel welcome." C.G.

I know these results happen only from the best doctors in plastic surgery. How fortunate that you are here in the town of Charlotte. I would definitely highly recommend you and your office to anyone. I am especially grateful that you and I were able to communicate my desires and results, which I was hoping to achieve. This is so important in trusting your doctor. Thank you so much and I wish you and your practice much success!" I.C.
As a young teen, Valerie had always hoped to develop a womanly figure with cleavage and naturally full, voluptuous breasts, instead of the small breasts that ran in her family. But by age 18, she was only a small A cup, a fact that constantly made her feel self-conscious. After seeing the impressive, natural-looking results both her mom and sister gained from breast augmentation surgery, she knew it was possible to have the body of her dreams even though nature had passed her by as well. As soon as she was old enough, Valerie visited the same breast enhancement specialist that her mother and sister chose, Dr. Simeon Wall, Jr. at The Wall Center for Plastic Surgery in Louisiana. When she first entered the office, Valerie was warmly welcomed by the entire staff. "They treat you like they already know you," Valerie explained. "Right away I felt pretty calm because everyone was so friendly." Led by 3 board-certified plastic surgeons that are father, son, and daughter-in-law, The Wall Center takes pride in treating each patient like they are part of the family. Right away Valerie felt at ease with Dr. Wall, Jr.'s friendly, unhurried personality. He asked her to describe her goals and took the time to really listen to what she told him. "I wanted to have cleavage, so I told Dr. Wall that I thought I should have the same size implants as my sister," said Valerie. "But Dr. Wall explained that everyone's body is unique and that my sister's size wouldn't look the same on me. To get the same fullness as my sister I would need implants sized specifically for my body." Valerie, at 5' 7" was taller than her sister and had fuller hips. Dr. Wall, Jr. said that she'd need to go with a taller and larger implant for a more proportionate appearance and ample cleavage like her sister. Valerie agreed that an implant sized specifically for her body would be the right choice to give her the full, feminine look she wanted. The day of surgery Valerie was put under general anesthesia, so she was asleep and comfortable through the whole procedure. For a full, natural breast contour, Dr. Wall placed saline implants under the chest muscles through small incisions hidden in the breast crease. "The scars were so tiny and healed so well, you couldn't even tell I had surgery," Valerie explained. Highly trained and experienced in breast enhancement surgery, Dr. Wall, Jr. had the skill and the aesthetic eye to give Valerie the improvements she had always wanted. Valerie's enhanced breasts brought her all kinds of attention, and she began turning heads wherever she went. "It was a huge confidence builder," Valerie exclaimed. She was invited to pose for Playboy Magazine and became Miss September 2008 which included taking the spotlight as that month's centerfold. She moved to the Playmate House in Los Angeles for a summer and also appeared on the reality television series The Girls Next Door in seasons 4 and 5. Living for months with the other girls from Playboy got Valerie thinking about having even larger breasts. Although she had been quite happy with her saline implants for several years, Valerie decided to have them replaced with modern gel implants. While Valerie chose to increase the size of her breasts with gel implants, many women choose gel implants to achieve a softer feel and a more natural breast appearance. Once Dr. Wall, Jr. was confident she had given this change careful thought, he performed another successful procedure for Valerie. After a quick and easy recovery, Valerie is happier than ever with her enhanced figure - having gone from a small D to a DD. She now has the striking figure she desired and increased confidence to go along with it. She aspires to advance her career as an actress and a glamour model, with the dream of posing for Playboy Magazine again, this time as the cover model. Valerie's advice to other women considering breast augmentation is clear: "Make sure you research it really well. If it's something you'd like to do, there's nothing to be nervous about. The surgery is really easy and it's a big confidence booster." V.
Many joys accompany motherhood. Unfortunately, the toll it takes on the body is not one of them. After having her third child, Cathy started to seriously contemplate plastic surgery to help her regain the figure she had before childbirth. Her husband, Carlos, wasn't so sure. "At first, I didn't want her to have it done because, honestly, I didn't think she needed it and I was concerned about the risks. It was more of a personal thing for her." But Cathy persisted. "She did her homework before she went through with the process," Carlos notes. Via the Internet, Cathy learned more about breast augmentation in Louisiana and she also started looking at doctors' credentials and experience. "It was hard to find the right doctor at first." she confides. "The first two I visited just didn't seem right. One really seemed to be in it for the money and the other knew what he wanted to do, but didn't pay much attention to what I wanted from the procedure." "Then, a friend told me about Dr. Wall so I decided to call the office. Since I live in Houston, I thought it would be a hassle, but the staff was wonderful and very responsive. When my husband and I drove to Shreveport to meet with Dr. Wall, I was very impressed. He was so concerned with me and what I wanted. Dr. Wall explained the procedure so well to me that I didn't have any questions after the consultation," Cathy remembers. Carlos felt better after talking to Dr. Wall as well: "His input on the procedure and the long-term effects, eased my mind. He as also clearly going to do what Cathy wanted to give her the look she desired." Cathy decided to go ahead with the procedure with Dr. Wall as her surgeon. In the end, Cathy is happy with the decision to have cosmetic surgery. "I was even more satisfied by the results than I had originally thought possible. I would definitely do it all over again." Her husband is also happy with the results. "I think she's just more confident with her appearance now," he says. "She smiles a lot more perhaps - at least it seems that way. I'm glad she did it if only because of how happy it has made her." Cathy agrees. "I feel better about the way I look and my self-esteem has soared. I feel comfortable in a bikini and it's nice to be able to wear spaghetti straps again. I definitely have no regrets." C.M.
"A year and a half ago, I weighed 349 pounds," says a now slender Val. "I had been overweight since I was 12 and failed in diet after diet. But finally, I found a weight loss method that worked and in just over a year, I lost 182 pounds through a new weight-loss system* that focuses on changing our perspective and actions in order to lose weight. It involves a lot of emotional support with discussion groups and a personal journal." But rapid weight loss is tough on the body. Often, the skin tone doesn't snap back as fast, leaving unattractive, loose skin in certain areas. In these cases, the only solution is cosmetic surgery. Val knew it was time to look into her options. "I had always thought that plastic surgery was reserved for the really rich Hollywood types but I soon learned that I could afford it. It would be my ticket back to a normal appearance and body image." She met with various physicians. They told her that the work she needed done was complicated and needed a specialist. They referred her to Dr. Wall. Val remembers their first meeting: "When I walked in I didn't have a clue," she remembers. "I didn't even know what to call the procedure I needed to have. To be honest, I was scared to death at the thought of surgery. But when I finally met Dr. Wall, he eased my fears by explaining everything in very simple terms. He also focused on all the positives about my weight-loss so I didn't feel bad about the negatives, that is the excess skin. Also, rather than telling me what he was 'going to do,' Dr. Wall told me what he 'could' do. He let me call the shots and decide how to proceed." During her first surgery, Dr. Wall removed excess skin from Val's abdomen and lower body. A series of subsequent surgeries improved other areas around her body tightening the skin tone back to a normal look. Today, Val is confident and optimistic. "After I lost the weight, I would still wear baggy clothes because I wasn't toned up," she remembers. "It wasn't until after the surgery that my confidence soared. I have a flat stomach now and I buy clothes that show off my figure. I wear makeup and do my hair because I realize I can look good. Surgery has made me look so natural that most people don't believe me when I tell them I used to weigh a lot more. I couldn't be happier." V.J.
"Dear Waldorf Staff, In advance of my surgery, I want to thank you for your kindness in putting up with what is sure to be a nervous patient. Every member of the staff has been friendly and professional since day one! It’s true that I would love to achieve results without the journey, but if I have to take the journey, I’m glad it’s with all of you!"
"Dr. Waldorf and Staff, I want you all to know how grateful I am for your wonderful care and expertise. I really have a trust and confidence in all of you. It’s exciting and life changing in so many ways to go through this awesome transformation. I’ve watched SO MANY plastic surgery shows over the years and secretly hoped and dreamed for this, but never really believed I would lose enough weight or have this opportunity to reverse some of the damage that I’ve done to my body. For this journey, I thank God for my personal trainer who helped me believe in myself, for leading me to Drs and Nurses with the talents and skills to help me fulfill my dreams, and of course for home equity and a supportive husband. From My Heart, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You."
"Dr. Waldorf, I just wanted to take a few moments to be specifically thankful for the gifts God has given you in helping people. In a surgery that can produce apprehension and fear, your demeanor gave assurance and confidence. Thanks for your professionalism and for being personable -- it was noted and appreciated. I have been more than happy with my results, and I believe your art form is phenomenal! Your ability to read our desires and translate that into your perfect idea is truly awe inspiring!"
"Dear Dr. Rosen, Just a letter of thanks, to you and the entire staff at The Plastic Surgery Group. Your courtesy and professionalism was greatly appreciated by myself and family."
"Dear Dr. Rosen, I am truly thankful for so many aspects of my experience with you and your entire staff that I really do not know where to begin. So I will start with the part that I am most excited about...my results! I am currently 6 weeks post-op and am beyond thrilled with my new shape. My results have exceeded even my highest expectations. I had scheduled my BA for February so that I would look "normal" by the time warm weather arrived. I see now that was totally unnecessary. In fact, at the 4-week mark I had a routine medical check-up during which my physician suggested she check the incisions to see how I was healing. As she examined my breasts she asked if the scars were "under my arm". Having had areolar incisions, I suggested that she look again more closely. She was absolutely astounded. The incision sites were so faintly visible that she did not see them initially. She asked who my surgeon was and told me she had never seen such a natural looking result. Quite an endorsement! Evan my mother, who is not a fan of cosmetic enhancements, said that if she did not know what I looked like before, she would never ba able to tell that they were not "original". Of course, the end result is just part of the story when it comes to having surgery. I am most grateful for your unparalleled kindness, patience and warmth, which put me at ease, calmed my jittery nerves, and has made me fell completely comfortable each step of the way and beyond. Prior to the surgery, you listened carefully to my preferences regarding outcome. Post-op anytime I've had a concern or question you've made time for me - even on short notice. Your staff has been amazing, too. From the front desk all the way through to your nurses Meghan, Mary and Toni, who are always upbeat and reassuring. It's clear that they really care about their patients. Alicia Soltys, your PA was so patient explaining all the pre and post-op instructions, calmly answering each of my questions with the utmost knowledge and competence. She even called to check on me at home during my recovery. I have enclose some early post-op photos that I took. Please feel free to share them with other patients. Thanks again, you and your staff are truly the "gold standard". Warmest Regards," K.G.
"Dr. Rosen, I just want to let you know how very grateful I am...You did an exquisite job... You and your staff are a unique group of people. You are a wonderful plastic surgeon. Many thanks," P.
"Dear Allen, I can't thank you enough for the excellent job you did with my breast surgery. By your skill and talent you have given me something I never dreamed I could have, a positive self/body image!...You are a wonderful Plastic Surgeon, but above all else, a terrific human being." A.
"Dear Dr. Rosen, I thank you for being the best of the best...You have made me feel so much better about my appearance...All of your professional staff deserve a round of applause for being considerate, warm and accommodating." A.
"Dear Dr. Rosen, Can you believe that it has only been a few days since my surgery and here I am at my desk comfortably writing you a letter! I feel so blessed to have found a surgeon as caring, talented and professional as you. Best Regards," D.
"Dear Dr. Rosen, Just a note of thanks to you and your entire staff in making my blepharoplasty a success without any complications...I had surgery, in your facility, on Wednesday and started a new job the following Tuesday without anyone realizing I had surgery the previous week...It was amazing. Sincerely," J.
"Dear Dr. Rosen, I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your genius. Truly you have a gift and I thank you for sharing it with me and others...your staff is very kind and considerate, and all that helps when someone is a little nervous. I just wanted them to know too that I appreciate their kindness. Sincerely," E.
"Dr. Rosen is a wonderful man And I am his biggest fan Since I was four he cared for me He saw things no one else could see Of all the doctors beginning to end I thought of him like a friend He fixed my arm, my leg and hair And did it with the gentlest care He always knew to make me feel Like my thoughts and feelings were real He changed my life, he helped me grow For that I love him forever you know Praises to Dr. Rosen I sing for giving me just one more thing Something to drive my mother insane Growing out this thick full mane." R.S.
"Dr. Rosen was right, I came out feeling whole. He was fantastic. I love that man! What a great doctor. I thanked him for taking such good care of me, and I was crying when I said it, because I felt so grateful to him. In Rosen’s office she noticed a pair of striking acrylic sculptures, "Exaltation” and "Emerging Flame,” by the late Frederick Hart, showing ideally formed women emerging sylph-like from what looks like jagged rock or ice. "I looked at those,” she says, "and I thought, ‘THAT’s how I feel. That’s me, now.”" M.M.
“The entire staff has been very accommodating, friendly and helpful. From my first visit with Dr. Haws, I knew she was the right doctor for me. Her positive attitude and enthusiasm change my whole outlook on the surgery and it’s been wonderful working with her through this experience. I wouldn’t change any of it.”
“I just wanted to say thank you. I was a little afraid to have this surgery, but everyone there made it so easy, even when I made a few last minute changes. I would recommend your office to everyone I see. I’d be willing to talk to anyone of your new patients if they have any concerns, and tell them about my pleasant experiences.”
“Everyone in your office always makes me feel at home. They are friendly, kind, and very understanding people.”
“Not only is Dr. Gingrass an excellent surgeon, but she and her staff are very kind and caring. I appreciate the care I received more than I can put into words.”
"Privacy has always been a big issue with me and I appreciate your efforts toward that. Right down to your return address label on your envelopes having your great logo without your name. I am confidant in you and your staff."
"Dear Dr. Haws, I want to thank you, thank you, thank you for my great arms! I'm so happy with their shape & definition, I couldn't be more pleased. If you remember, I said I didn't care about scars, but when you did your pre-op that morning, you told me I might not care but you did, and I'm so glad you DID! When my arms are at my side, you can't even see scars, even if I move my forearms the scars are almost invisible. I appreciate your concern and Thank you so much!"
"Dr. Haws... Melinda, Thanks once again for your accomplished expertise in performing my procedure. I never have worries when under your care... you always make me feel safe. I hope you have a happy summer and look forward to seeing you in August. My best to you & your staff."
"Dear Dr. Gringass & Staff, I just wanted to drop a note to say Thank you again. Everyone was very helpful and friendly to me. I really love my new look. I am going to refer all my friends to you and your staff."
"It means so much to have such caring and compassionate nursing staff. They make you feel they really care about you. The receptionist are very nice and helpful. Of course, Dr. Gingrass is such a superb surgeon and caring person."
"Mary, There is no way to say how much I Thank you! You are a wonderful person and may God continue to bless you and your family. Thank you."
"Thanks Dr. Haws and every staff member that I met, you have all been so very good, kind, and considerate at a time when patients especially need people like you." E.A.

"My experience with your office was wonderful! My friend and I had consultations with a couple of other doctors. Our experience at your office was by far the most educational, professional, personal, comforting, and fun." F.N.

"Everyone I dealt with there was great, very professional office and staff. Keep up the great work." H.P.
"I am 100 percent pleased with both my experience and outcome. It was a pleasant and informed experience in every aspect, from the first contact with the office staff and nursing staff to my post op. I am so appreciative of Dr. Haws' competence and understanding. Her work exceeded my expectations." I.T.
"Dr. Haws is wonderful. I had a bad experience with a tummy tuck from another surgeon. It took four years to build courage to try again and Dr. Haws did a wonderful job fixing someone else's mistake. Thanks Dr. Haws, you are the best. My results are better than I ever imagined." H.J.
"Dr. Haws, I would like to thank you for such a great job, not only do I feel better physically, but mentally I'm at an all time high! I would like to also send praise to your office staff who were at all times very friendly and professional." B.A.
"The entire office made what I expected to be a very painful and scary experience turn into a pleasant one. I spent years trying to reach the decision to have this surgery. I wouldn’t hesitate if the need arose again for surgery due to the experience of you and your office. Thank you." O.O.

"After working for 23 years in the health care field I have never come across a surgeon as kind and caring as Dr. Gingrass. She is an excellent listener, very thorough and meticulous. I would recommend her and have already to several friends." W.G.
"Dr. Gingrass is great and I would recommend her to anyone. I am considering other procedures and will definitely go back to her!" A.A.
Dr. Rosenberg, is, in my opinion an excellent surgeon and a caring and sensitive doctor. I spent years wanting to have this procedure - I'm just sorry I didn't make the decision sooner. My results were immediate, natural looking and absolutely awesome! Amy G.
I wanted to touch base with you to tell you how very happy and grateful I have been with the results of my surgery. I don't think I ever properly thanked you, so here it is! I will be 60 in October and I feel 40! Of course, I know that exercise and a good diet helps, but not being self conscious about a sagging chin, droopy skin, etc. sure boosts the confidence (and happiness!) level. Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH. You are a very talented and kind surgeon. Hope all is well with you and yours! Nancy B.
Thanks again for everything. I couldn't be happier with the results. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new body and am thrilled that at 49 I look better than I have EVER looked. Certainly I did my share of the hard work losing the weight and toning up but without your help I would never be able to show it off in this sizzling little bikini! Thanks again and see you in 6 months! Debra P.

"I had a TUBA performed LOVE it! I had a mammagram last week and the nurse was so impressed - she COULDN'T see a scar and said my breast looked amazing...I was previously 32 A (wishing and thinking I was a B for years) and now 32 D... amazing! Dr. Hunstad is GREAT at what he does and will let you know what is best for your body type and match your expectations to it."
Just had my breast augmentation on Tues. with Dr. Hunstad. He's terrific! I have had nothing but a good experience with him & staff. I am just 2 days pot-op, but I am pleased. I will see him again on Monday. His anesthesiologist is cream of the crop as well. Highly recommend! His record is pretty stellar. 22 yrs. of breast augmentation and not 1 infection. CC rate for silicone is almost 0.
"Have seen Dr. Hunstad 2x since surgery, and I will see him again tomorrow. I am almost giddy over my boobs, and sooooo glad I went with him! Everything has gone so smoothly. I have had ZERO pain since I came out of surgery. He told me to expect being uncomfortable but assured gentle pocket dissection; in addition, his technique creates almost no bleeding. Well no discomfort at all. I can move my arms, and could immediately after surgery, just the same as pre-op. Very slight tenderness, but other than that, smooth sailing. Beautiful shape, my breasts are soft from day 1, and already dropping. I honestly could not be happier with Dr. Hunstad. He has remarkable skill. Good luck!!!"
"I can't express enough how thankful I am to such an excellent surgical team as all of you at the Hunstad Center. Dr. Hunstad went above and beyond in providing me with the best surgical care, as well as giving me more than enough time for information and questions I had. I am ever so impressed with my anesthesia experience which was done by Dr. McMullen, who was so detailed in his care. He listened to my past anesthesia experiences which were not pleasant memories, and told me I could rest easy the night before my surgery knowing that my surgery the next day would be a positive experience. He said he knew how to help me come out of anesthesia in comfort. I had no idea that I would be as comfortable as I was when I woke up. I did not wake in a panic, I did not have th anesthesia shivers, and I was not in pain. With the expertise of Dr, Hunstad and Dr. McMullen I have had the best surgical care and experience that every person always prays for. My recovery nurses, Melissa, RN and Grace, RN, gave me excellent post op care and I felt very comfortable the entire post op night, getting a lot of rest. The post op skin care that was ordered for me by Dr. Hunstad was a wonderful and helpful treat that I had no idea I would be getting. I am so thankful to Dr. Hunstad and Tammy, RN for the O2 facials, which are helpful in the recovery phase. Thank you all so very much for best of care. I am forever thankful." G.

Dr. Almonte and the entire staff have always made me completely comfortable each and every time I visit the office. Before and After each procedure - Always! Dr. Almonte is my angel. I recommend him highly to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon."
"I have never looked better. My body is proportionally correct now. Dr. Almonte is more than a surgeon. He is a sculptor. Dr. Almonte's staff is wonderful. They were very knowledgeable, caring, and helpful with any questions I had before and after surgery. They were helpful with financing too."
"My results are amazing. I'm really happy with myself, and think that my doctor did a good job. I would do it all over again, it's that worth it. Everyone is very professional and super nice. They are all concerned about your needs and very helpful."
"I am extremely happy. Dr. Almonte made them exactly the size I had requested. I am so glad I had it done. Should have done it sooner. Dr. Almonte and his staff were wonderful. They did a good job of explaining the procedure and what would be involved. It’s a little bit of an ordeal, of course, but so worth the result!!"
"I am delighted with the outcome. The results exceeded my expectations. I can happily say 'I am perky.' Dr. Almonte is wonderful. He has a gentle reassuring approach that makes you feel comfortable. The other members on the staff are friendly and always responsive."
EXCELLENT DIAGNOSTICIAN AND SURGEON. Over the years I found breathing through my nose becoming more and more difficult. It felt like my nasal passages were touching all the time. I assumed this was due to inflammation caused by allergies. Though my allergies improved my nasal breathing did not. I went to an ENT who said removal of a bone spur would improve my quality of life. After another year or so I mentioned to my allergist that I was thinking of having that done. He urged me to see Dr. Cilento first. I am SO glad that I took his advice. It turned out there were multiple problems causing greater difficulties than the bone spur. Dr. Cilento performed multiple procedures in March 2011. I woke up with no pain and very little swelling. That never changed. I never needed pain pills, and I never looked like I'd been beaten up. I was able to contact Dr. Cilento any time I needed to if I had questions or concerns. In a few days I felt like trucks could drive through my newly supported nasal passages. I had no idea that my nose had been in such poor condition. It has been 5 months since my surgery and my breathing continues to be a wonder! I have discontinued my two nasal sprays, and I have cut my oral meds in half. I might just be able to discontinue them altogether. Dr. Cilento is all of the positive things mentioned in the previous comments and more. I just can't thank Dr. Cilento enough for giving me the gift of breathing easily.
EXCELLENT PHYSICIAN! I'M RECOMMENDING TO ANYONE WITH NASAL ISSUES. Dr. Cilento is extremely detailed, accurate, and precise with his diagnostic and surgical tasks. Also, he takes time to understand you and the medical issues by not rushing the office visits. I am very happy with the surgical results! I can now breathe easily and I'm not getting sinus infections! Bottom line - If you need surgery, you should have him perform it.
DR. CILENTO IS EVERYTHING AND MORE THAN EXPECTED. Dr. Cilento is very thorough, empathetic, caring, and has gone above and beyond the call of duty as most Dr.s practice now days. He always text or called when I needed him to. I feel like I am the only patient on his schedule when he is tending to my charts, exams, and personal needs. I think he is fantastic and I wish there were more doctors out there with his attitude toward his patients.
"Vaser is the way to go. You only need 2-7 days of down time, but that depends on the each single person and the area you have done... I needed about 5 days to recover. I had my arms & back done the first time and then my flanks, butt, and inner and outer thighs done the second time. My friend had his abs and man-boobs done and went back to work the next day! So it really depends on you. Pain - Yes you feel some pain and alot of pressure, but nothing compared to traditional lipo. The results are very very pleasing, less down time and less pain. I feel fantastic and when the swelling goes down i know i am going to look fantastic. (I had my procedure done 2 1/2 days ago.) Dr. Raine made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. I also checked him out with the Board Of Plastic Surgeons and found that he has been board certified for over 20 years. I wish I knew about Vaser 5 years ago. It would have saved me a lot of pain from doing it [traditional liposuction] the other way." A.P.
"I went to MiRadiance hoping to sculpt areas on my lower body including my inner and outer thighs, hips and buttocks. Dr. Raine was very informative and made me feel comfortable at the consultation. The surgery went very well! I was awake and aware of what they were doing but I didn't feel more than just pressure. Dr. Raine and the staff were amazing from start to finish. The first time I looked at myself in the mirror I was shocked at the difference I could already see. I understood that I would have slight swelling and some bruising but could not believe the difference I saw right away. My bruises went away within about 14 days. I would definitely recommend ultrasound-assisted lipo at MiRadiance to anyone to is looking to get rid of their problem areas, not only for the fabulous results but also for the caring and professional staff!" L.G.
"The staff was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They made me feel comfortable during the consultation and the surgery!" A.Z.

"Dolla, I’m extremely happy with the results. You and Dr. Yamini were always so loving, patient and understanding of all my issues, being away from family for the procedure and during every visit. Thank you so much for everything; I feel great; amazing feeling when you can stop hiding yourself behind saggy clothes; and my husband seems to be very happy too ;)"
"Dear Dr. Yamini, Office Staff, and Surgery Staff, I will never forget the image of two incredible geniuses holding each one of my hands before surgery. Thank you SO much for that. Dr. Yamini - since I walked in that very first day you made me feel nothing but comfortable. The staff, the other doctors, all you guys are simply wonderful, caring people. I just wanted you to know that you are appreciated and you guys are AWESOME!"
"My name is C. and I am a 53 year old woman who has battled obesity almost all of my life. One day a very important person in my life asked me to make him "just one promise” as he put it.. I suffered with Lupus, High Blood Pressure, Arthritis in both knees, back and neck, hypothyroidism, and I was morbidly obese; weighing 317 pounds. My height was only 5”2”. Not a pretty picture. I finally had gastric bypass surgery in October of 2006. The surgery went well. The second phase of my physical and mental transition was to find a cosmetic surgeon who would be able to remove all of the excess skin that I had; and believe me there was so much. Although, I had lost a tremendous amount of weight (approximately 175 lbs), I would stand in front of a full length mirror and still see an obese women looking back at me. So off I went again, on another hunt for the "right” cosmetic surgeon. . I interviewed five surgeons. Three close to home (Ventura County), one in Santa Barbara, and the last one in Beverly Hills. The last one was Dr. Daniel Yamini of Sunset Cosmetics Surgery, located in Beverly Hills, CA. Dr. Yamini has a true understanding and empathy in regards to those of us who have suffered from obesity and he understands the importance of one’s body image. Dr. Yamini’s ability, knowledge and mastery in transitioning an individual’s body image from fat and flabby to "beautiful” are a true gift. He is a surgeon who believes in the quality of his work rather than the quantity. He is very conservative and will tell you if he feels your expectations are not in your best interest. He is a member of what is referred to as the "Dream Team” of Cosmetic Surgeons; and he has indeed made my dreams come true. My surgery took place just as planned. I had a full body lift. I experienced very little post-operative pain and no complications. I was back to work within two weeks. I went back to see Dr. Yamini in November to have a breast and arm lift. Again the surgery went as planned with no complications. The scarring is almost invisible, and I look and feel better than I could have ever imagined. Even my personal doctors who have cared for me throughout the years are amazed at the transition and the skill in which Dr. Yamini’s surgical procedures have turned out. They all have stated he is indeed a gifted surgeon. Dr. Yamini’s caring nature toward his patients goes beyond a doctor/patient relationship. At any time during the pre or post operative timeframes, you can feel free to call Dr. Yamini, and he will personally call you back and graciously give you the time needed to answer your questions and/or concerns. He and his wonderful, professional staff are always there for you to ensure that you have and get everything you need to ensure your experience and recover through the cosmetic transition is a wonderful, satisfying, and that your final outcome is that of complete satisfaction. In closing, I want to encourage all of you who may be thinking of having surgery to take that step and "Do It.” Do it for yourself and those that you love, do it for the opportunity to experience a beautiful, healthy future." C.
"Dear Dr.Yamini, I would like to express my profound gratitude to you for changing my life. Before my liposculpture buying clothes was a nightmare and I would always feel depressed when shopping for new outfits. Nothing ever fit properly. After my surgery however, even buying bathing suites has become a pure delight. You have not only transformed my body but also my self-esteem and body image. To say that I'm happy is an understatement; I am ecstatic! I can't stop smiling. I didn't realize what a difference the right surgeon could make. Moreover, your professionalism, sensitivity and accessibility throughout the entire process were very much appreciated. Thank you for making a difference in the life. My experience with you as a surgeon and as a human being has been a pleasure. Thank you so much for all your kindness and generosity. I am so thankful for your caring heart and steady hand. I would also like to thank your entire staff, who treated me with the utmost professionalism and care while maintaining my personal privacy. Dr. Yamini, no words can express my appreciation. Best wishes," S.
"I can't say ENOUGH great things about Dr. Svehlak or my experience! I was a little nervous about having surgery since I have MS. Dr. Svehlak made me feel so comfortable with his amazing bedside manner, personality and work. I've dealt with so many doctors over the years (literally hundreds) because of my MS and Dr. Svehlak and his staff are A1. They are literally perfectionists (which is a good thing as far as plastic surgeons go!). I've already recommended them to 3 people. My results are spectacular and coming across the country was well worth it. My husband is amazed. I'm so thrilled with the results and the process did not involve a lot of pain or down time at all. In fact, my tiny little incisions under each arm are going to be indetectable in a month or so (it's been only 3 weeks and it's all healing beautifully). Also, the staff is GREAT-- always professional, attentive and helpful. The anesthesiologist and Riley were amazing too and always knew exactly what to do." D.S.
"I RECENTLY UNDERWENT BREAST AUGMENTATION SURGERY WITH DANIEL YAMINI, M.D. I HAD AN ARRAY OF BEVERLY HILLS COSMETIC SURGEONS FROM WHICH TO CHOOSE, BUT FELT MOST COMFORTABLE WITH DR. YAMINI. HE CAREFULLY LISTENED TO MY QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS, AND ALLAYED ALL OF MY FEARS. THE RESULTS FAR SURPASSED MY EXPECTATIONS. MY SILICONE BREASTS LOOK NATURAL AND I CONSTANTLY RECEIVE COMPLIMENTS. A DOCTOR IS ONLY AS GOOD AS HIS STAFF, AND DR. YAMINI'S STAFF IS BOTH GRACIOUS AND VERY ACCOMODATING. I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO RESERVATIONS IN RECOMMENDING DR. YAMINI- HIS WORK IS EXQUISITE!"
"After having several consultations with other Doctors in Beverly Hills and not feeling comfortable with any of them, I met Dr. Steven Svehlak. I knew within minutes that he was the Doctor that I wanted to perform my surgery. Dr. Svehlak's amazing talent has played a significant role in the positive transformations that I have been striving for this past year. After losing 60lbs., and feeling healthier and more vibrant than ever, there was still that "something" missing that would help me feel attractive and sexy. After having breast augmentation, I have extreme pride in how I look and feel. Thank you guys so much for making my surgery a comfortable experience, and of course to Dr. Svehlak for being the most talented, wonderful, BEST surgeon ever. Honestly, I can't begin to explain what he has done for my self esteem!!! See you soon."
"Dear Dr. Yamini, I just want to say thank you so much for everything that you have done for me. Before I came to you I was very nervous and didn't know what to expect, however, with your professionalism, experience and delicate touch, you made everything worth it. Because of you I feel better about myself, again, all the thanks to you."
"Dr. Svehlak did my liposuction in August and I couldn't be happier with my results! I wanted to find a doctor who listened to what I wanted and made me feel very comfortable. He was attentive, professional and kind. I'm so pleased with my new flat tummy! THANK YOU!" C.O.
"Dear Dr. Yamini and Staff, I can't begin to express the words of appreciation for the outstanding service you provided. You made me feel comfortable and I so much trust in this office. Dr. Yamini I certainly wish there were more doctors like you. Thank you all."
"I wanted to send you a letter about how wonderful I think Dr. Svehlak is! The whole office treated me with such kindness and support throughout my entire surgery. Dr. Steve walked me through the process from beginning to end and I honestly had no surprises about the procedure or the recovery process... Thank you so much for your support and caring before, during and after my surgery. I look and feel great!! Thanks for everything," B.
"Dear Dr.Yamini, Thank you so much for helping correct something that has bothered me for years (especially in light of the fact that I was about to get married and have a bunch of photos taken!). Many of my family and friends commented at my wedding that I looked the best they'd seen in years. (-: You are a terrific person and I wish you continued success in life and in your practice. You make a difference! Take care."
"As a lawyer and psychologist having lived around the world, I have had professional associations, consultations and treatments with doctors considered "legends” in the field of plastic surgery. After receiving several procedures under the care and skill of Dr. Steven Svehlak, I can say without hesitation, he is a "legend in his own time”. His professional talents and personal care and sincere charm are unsurpassed. Further, his talents are supported by a team of equally esteemed and clearly personally dedicated plastic surgeons in Dr. Ellenbogen and Dr. Yamini, personally attentive anesthesiologists and nurses, and a delightfully competent,, efficient and caring office staff. From my significant personal and professional perspective and experience, Dr. Svehlak and the Dr. Svehlak "package” are the best in the world. I look forward to our continued relationship."
"Dr. Yamini changed my life!!! Regardless of what I did it seemed like I could never get rid of my thighs and stomach area. I tried working out, dieting, and many various kinds of diet pills, but nothing worked. There was a point in my life that I wouldn’t even look in the mirror because I would get angry that the amount of time and effort that I had put into exercising and dieting was not giving me any results. I had given up on the whole idea of me being able to lose weight. That is until I met Dr. Yamini. My older cousin is the one who introduced me to Dr. Yamini. As I was driving with my cousin to Dr. Yamini’s office for my consultation I was extremely frightened for I have always been a "BIG BABY.” I asked myself, "How are you going to have liposuction when just 6 months ago you cried when you got a shot”. By that time I was ready to answer my own question we had already reached Dr.Yamini’s office. From the first moment that I met Dr. Yamini I was comfortable with him, and knew that I was in good hands. He was extremely patient in letting me ask all of my questions, even those that I asked twice. He asked me what I was unhappy with and we went on from there. Once we figured out exactly what I was going to have done, right then and there I set a date, Dec 19, 2003; I titled that day "The rebirth of the perfect body”. After meeting with Dr. Yamini I was no longer frightened of the procedure, in fact I was excited. On December 19, 2003 my mother drove me to the Dr. Yamini’s office I can’t put into words how excited I was. While waiting to go in for my surgery all of the staff at on point or another approached me just to say hello and to make sure I was ok. My surgery took approximately 2 and half hours. A couple of days after the surgery I was walking around and able to continue my daily activities. My end result is what is amazing. Prior to the surgery I was 11/12 dress size, it has been about 3 months after my surgery and I am now a size 5/6. I am able to fit in a size 3/4 but I like wearing 5/6. This had been the experience of a lifetime. The compliments that I receive make me feel amazing. Thank you Dr. Yamini, for you have no idea how much you have changed my life."
"Dr. Svehlak, Thank you for keeping me in safe hands. I'm healing well as you can see aside from slight bruising and swelling. It's still very early but I feel good about the outcome. You are the best. In addition to being a remarkable surgeon, you have a great attitude and playful spirit in which I relate to. You keep me in a relaxed state of mind. You are a precious gift of life." L.L.
"Dear Dr. Yamini, I would like you to know that you have been great. You have touched my daughter's life, and mine too, for ever and we will never forget you. You were attentive to her needs anytime she needed you. Your hands work wonders and you are a true artist besides being a superior surgeon. Your bedside manners are impeccable and one can see that you are truly passionate about your work and your patients. I can not THANK YOU enough. God bless you and your loved ones and grant you all your wishes."
"Dr. Steve & Dr. Dan - I am so grateful to you both for the beautiful work that you did on me. I am 4 wks post now and feeling great; very little swelling and sensitivity left. I am waiting to get the "green light" to come back to work and hoping that it will be very soon. In the mean time, I am enjoying showing my new and improved body to other woman who are all very impressed with how incredible your work is and are also ready to do the same (I'll be handing out your cards for years to come). Please call on me anytime should you need me for photos, "show & tell", etc. I am available to you both for any kind of support that I can offer. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you! With much love & gratitude," D.
"Hi Dr. Yamini and office! I wanted to say thank you so much for the care and attention you gave me before, during and after my recent breast augmentation surgery! I felt so comfortable with Dr. Yamini's philosophies and expertise on the procedure and I appreciate all of the information you gave me to help me make my decision. I felt very informed and that we were on the same page when I scheduled my surgery. I was so nervous the week leading up to the surgery and you all, especially Dolla, really "held my hand" through this whole thing. I had never had surgery before so I was nervous, and everyone was so sweet to answer all of my questions, even when I called four times in one day 🙂 On the day of the surgery I felt I was in very good hands and well cared for. I was less nervous walking into the office than I thought I would be. I was surprised I had hardly any pain the days after the procedure. I was expecting much worse. I actually went to a late lunch and bra shopping with my friends the very next day, and after a Thursday surgery was back to work on Monday. I love my new look! It has been so much fun trying on clothing that was never quite as flattering before, and buying bikinis has been amazing. I cannot even put into words how much more confident I am in myself and my looks. Thanks so much!!"
"Dr. Steve, Just in case I have not expressed my feelings of gratitude enough to you......let me reiterate them to you.... I am so very grateful for what you have done for me. I think you are a very sweet, caring, gentle doctor -- you made my experience very comfortable and were always so calm which really helped me a lot!!!! I love your confidence. Your work speaks for itself!! Thank you again. Stay well."
"To: Sunset Cosmetic Surgery After interviewing 4 of the top surgeons in Beverly Hills, I went to see Dr. Yamini for one additional consult. Of all the surgeons I saw, I was most impressed with him for the amount of time he took explaining things to me and for the time he took showing me his actual work and explaining what he needed to do. I also liked the fact that he was conservative in his approach, unlike the other doctors I's seen, and that he, personally, handled the entire consult rather than pushing me off to his assistant. His work was beautiful. After leaving there, I had a few more questions and Dr. Yamini took the time to get on the phone with me and spent an additional 20 minutes answering my questions. I decided then and there that he was the surgeon for me. He really gets the whole massive weight loss/extra skin issues we face. He just completed my mastopexy and abdominoplasty and I couldn't be happier. My breasts are exactly what I wanted and expected and exactly how he described them to me. My tummy looks incredible. Dr. Yamini is a true artist and perfectionist. I could have gone to anyone in Beverly Hills, but I chose and will always choose him as the very best, most caring, talented and gifted surgeon in the city!"
"Dr. Svehlak assured me that the surgery would be easy and that I should have no problems with my recovery. I must admit I was a bit skeptical, but a day and half after surgery, I was back at work and feeling great. Thank you Dr. Svehlak and the entire office staff, for this pleasant and positive experience!"
"Dr. Yamini, I am writing this letter to let you know what an amazing and caring doctor you were for me during the whole process of my surgery. I was so nervous and scared, and the last thing I remember before I went to sleep, was you next to be holding my hand to let me know I would be okay. You and the staff made me feel so comfortable. My body has completely transformed, and I thank you for that. You are an incredible doctor, and I know that all good things are coming your way. Thank you again for everything."
"Dr. Svehlak exceeded my expectations for my plastic surgery. He and his staff continue to offer me personalized care of which I am eternally grateful." A.T.
"Dear Dr. Yamini, I hope this email finds you in good health and in good spirits! It has now been 3 weeks since my surgery with you and I am now back home and recovering well. Dr. Yamini, I have been extremely pleased with my results. I wish I could convey this face to face, but you have exceeded all my expectations. Just with in 2 weeks post-op ALL the bruises on my body have disappeared, I think the swelling too has somewhat subsided, and more importantly I am getting more mobility. I never thought I could begin to see the results this soon. Not only are the parts of my body smaller, but it has been transformed into a "shapelier" body, and honestly Dr. Yamini I had never expected it. It was like getting a surprised bonus!! You have sculpted my body.........and its been a while since I could see my waist.....You are both a fantastic physician and a talented artist. Dr. Yamini, I want to thank you, and everyone in your practice for taking such an excellent care of me, and I am extremely grateful that my "first" procedure was done under your expertise. You have made me very happy!!! "
"Dr. Daiza is second to none. I feel so fortunate to have met Dr. Daiza not only for her outstanding surgical skill, but also her genuine caring, professionalism and integrity!" J.F.
"Dr. Daiza, You took the time to answer my questions and were very honest and upfront with my options...I can not tell you how fortunate I feel that I have met such a wonderful surgeon and ultimately a caring individual. You call after surgery to ensure your clients are okay, you give your email...and YOU respond back (un-heard of), you give your personal cell phone to every client to call you at any time with questions and/or concerns (un-heard of)...you should receive the academy award for doctors. I can never re-pay you for the opportunity you have given me...I appreciate you more than you will ever know. Thank You!" S.W.
"Dr. Das is the most wonderful doctor I have ever known. His kindness and concern for me as a patient and a person were wonderful. his entire staff genuinely cares for you and makes you feel special." P.S.
"I had a facelift and a forehead lift, and I could not have been happier. It's as if Leonardo Da Vinci himself sculpted my face... Dr. Das is the master of his craft." B.D.M.
"The decision to have plastic surgery wasn't a hard one, but finding a great doctor was an important step. I immediately felt comfortable with Dr. Das. I was so happy that I referred a co-worker to Dr. Das - her surgery was a success, as well. I was glad to spread the joy around!" L.M.L.
"Dr. Carp, Michelle, Bobbi & rest of the staff: I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the kindness and compassion you have shown to me. I am so happy with my results and now feel so much more confident. Your practice exemplifies what every plastic surgeon should be, a class "A" act all the way. Thank you for making me feel like my feelings counted and weren't dismissed."
"It's not over yet but the scariest part is over. I am so thankful for the support of you and your staff through this whole process. It was not a decision I made easily. I spent a lot of time researching the procedure and in the end it was my confidence in you that helped me make my decision. I appreciate all of the girls at the office for never making me feel like I had another stupid question. They were always willing to spend time on the phone with me to help me and guide me through this process. I can tell you are a real professional and that you have taken your time to choose a great staff. Thank you for your honesty and for having a genuine concern for my interest. I am now on the path to healing. I know I will be helped through this process and hopefully I will feel like myself again soon. Also thank you for the gift bag full of items to help me heal. It's just another way you show you care. I am grateful to have found such a fantastic surgeon. I know you have worked hard to get where you are now. I just wanted you to know all your hard work and attention to detail is very much appreciated."
"Thank you very much, Dr. Carp and all staff, for the care before surgery and after. You must all be heaven sent. Thank you."
"Dear Dr. Carp & Staff, I thank you all for the wonderful care you gave me prior, during, & after my elective surgery. Each and every one of you are to be commended for your expertise and professionalism. It was very special to receive the lovely backpack bag filled with many items that were apropos for my recovery. What a wonderful way to let the patient know how much you care about their comfort and recovery. May you all be blessed with as much love & care as you give to your patients."
"Dr. Carp, Just wanted to take a moment to thank you & your entire staff for your professionalism, courtesy, and lovely gifts."
"To Dr. Carp & Staff, I just wanted to thank all of you for your very warm & friendly service. You have done an excellent job on my procedures & I am really pleased with the results. I have not been this happy and comfortable about myself in a very long time. My husband & I are grateful to have known you and your staff!"
"Dear Dr. Carp and Staff, There are no words to express how happy I am with the results of my tummy tuck and arm reduction. Those are two trouble spots I have struggled with all my life. I am a new woman. I have never in my life had a flat tummy until now. It is wonderful not to feel like I have to hide my arms or tummy. I thought after my bariatric bypass that all would be fine...It was good, but you made it much better. I had all this loose skin from the one hundred pound weight loss. I have struggled all my life with my weight and now I am so very happy with the way I feel. You and your staff have been nothing but wonderful to not only me, but to my family also, putting their concerns at ease. I tell everyone how wonderful you all are and how skilled Dr. Carp is. He is beyond words in my eyes. Once again thank you, thank you, thank you for my new body."
"First I want to apologize that it has taken me so long to send my Thanks and recognition of a job well done to you Dr. Carp and all of your kind, caring staff. I would be more than happy to share my success story to your future clients and/or online viewers. I couldn't be more happy with the Abdominoplasty and Breast Augmentation procedure that I had done last April. It seems a long recovery but your patients need to know that it is well work the wait! I put my full trust into Dr. Carp which is sometimes a scary feeling. I can say with confidence that I would trust any family member, friend or even myself again under the care of Dr. Carp. When preparing for my surgery it seemed I had so many questions. I had a lot of "what if questions". I had hear someone say, "Don't worry, Dr. Carp is a perfectionist." Well, that was all I needed to hear and I was at ease. When you are having life changing and appearance changes done you want to know that your surgeon strives for the absolute best. I am so happy that I chose Dr. Carp to have trust in and be my plastic surgeon. I used to hide my tummy from everyone. It was even hard for me to show Dr. Carp my stomach at my first appointment. I never let anyone see my stomach, even my boyfriend at the time. I just did not feel feminine or pretty with my hanging skin and crooked C-section scar. I can tell you that I never even thought that my stomach would ever be this flat. I feel so much more feminine and pretty. I have so much more self confidence. I have so much Thanks to give you Dr. Carp. I feel that you are truly an Artist. Thank you for taking such good care of me and being the perfectionist that you are. Thanks to all of your kind staff as well."
"Thank you for taking the time to answer all my questions and doing such a wonderful job...I absolutely love them!!!!"
"Thank you for being so nice to me. Thank you for everything! It means a lot to me. Thank you again!"
"Dr. Carp & Staff, I would like to thank you very much for making my first experience with plastic surgery a very pleasant one. Your staff was very professional and kind. You definitely put me at ease about the surgery and recovery. (Especially all the questions you answered during my recovery.) As I start to see the final results of my breast augmentation, I couldn't be more thrilled! I am very pleased with the care and attention that you and your staff showed me."
"Hi Dr. Carp and Wonderful Staff, First, I want to apologize that it has taken me so long to send my Thanks and recognition of a job well done to you. I would be more than happy to share my success story with your future clients. I couldn’t be happier with the Abdominoplasty and Breast Augmentation procedures that I had done last April. It seems a long recovery but your patients need to know that it is well worth the wait! I put my full trust in Dr. Carp which is sometimes a scary feeling. I can say with confidence that I would trust any family member, friend or even myself again under the care of Dr. Carp."
"Dear Dr. Carp and Staff, Its been a year and a half since my first procedure and I’ve had a wonderful time getting acquainted to my new look! I am very proud with my appearance and appreciate all that you have done for me from my first consultation to my very last follow-up appointment. I have talked to women who have had other surgeons perform procedures for them and I have to say that your office provides the very best and very thorough care. Thank you so much for your excellent care and professionalism. I have recommended you to several friends and relatives. Keep up the great work!"
"Dear Dr. Carp and Staff, Thank you for the care before surgery and after. You must have been heaven sent. Thank you!"
"So many times good people are taken for granted, so I wanted to let you all know what a rare group you are and how much you deserve to be recognized. I have never felt so comfortable going to the doctor. It feels like I am visiting friends. You all have so much dedication and compassion, when it comes to satisfying a patient. So I just wanted to say thank you so much for being so great. As far as I am concerned, this is the only plastic surgeon to see, and trust me, I let people know. I am looking forward to growing old with all of you, just not looking it. Thanks again!" G.
"After years of unsuccessful treatments and tears, a happy patient looks forward to a beautiful wedding, with beautiful skin. We recently wish a patient a happy and health marriage as she left for Europe to get married. Since a teen, she tried every remedy and treatment available to her. But not until we designed an aggressive skin care program, in office chemical peels, and coblation, as well as scar revisions, did she obtain results. Leaving our office in tears, of joy, her wedding day will be fill with a glowing smile." S.
"Hi Dr. Carp... I was so excited when I came across your website on the internet, it is wonderful and helpful!! I just want to say Thank You once again for all that you have done for me, it is all greatly appreciated and will never be forgotten. I wish you and your family and your staff a happy holiday season!!" S.
“The office had a warm friendly feeling, and everyone was like friends you had for years! Thank you for everything! Love the results and so does my husband! You guys are amazing, friendly and fun!” C.S.
“Dr. Zoellner is a fantastic plastic surgeon I would highly recommend him and his team.” J.B.
"I could not be happier with everything! Dr. Zoellner is wonderful and an amazing surgeon. All of my expectations were exceeded. Thanks!!" H.B.
"All the office staff was professional, warm, caring and I have recommended your practice to others. Lisa, Janet, and Pat are fabulous!!" M.M.
“Dr. Zoellner and all the staff were friendly & very welcoming. In the past while looking for a trustworthy doctor I had horrible experiences. So, when I first came to the office I was nervous and skeptical, but I left feeling relieved and confident in the procedure I desired. Thanks to all!!” J.B.
“My overall experience with this office was excellent-for both procedures. I was treated with respect and everyone was very courteous and welcoming. I would definitely return for additional procedures, as Dr. Zoellner is truly a professional and caring physician. I would also recommend this office with complete confidence that the staff will treat everyone as they did me.” L.M.
"The care given to me by you and your staff was exceptional. It is obvious you strive for excellence. Your are the “best”. You helped me gain my self esteem and confidence." J.G.
“I was very pleased Dr. Zoellner was my doctor and very grateful for Lisa! She always took the time to be there for me. I would recommend any friends or family!” S.B.
“I love you guys! Everyone was great and I am so happy with the results. Dr. Zoellner has a great bedside manner and I have recommended your office to everyone.” L.N.
“The entire staff is kind and has been very helpful to make all appointments to meet my schedule. The staff has made me feel welcome and more like a friend than just a patient. Dr. Zoellner has been very informative and very patient in answering all of my questions and in making me feel comfortable. I am very happy to have found Dr. Zoellner and his wonderful staff to entrust such a big decision to!” J.M.
“Dr. Zoellner and his staff are amazing. Everything went smoothly, from start to finish, and I am still amazed and grateful with the results. Scheduling the procedure well in advance ensures that the patient fully understands all of the details and risks regarding their operation. Thank you for the amazing gift.” C.A.
“I was a patient of Dr. Zoellner’s a couple years back under my maiden name. I wanted to give an update on my condition post surgery. You know you have a great plastic surgeon when his work stands up to the greatest test. When I had my tummy tuck I had no idea I would have another child. I went through my pregnancy and thought, oh well I guess the work I had done is ruined. I was so wrong! One week after my son was born. We realized the work held up. Everyone commented that I didn’t look like I had been pregnant at all. Thanks so much. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Zoellner and his staff.” T.F.
Dear Angela and Dr. Lapidus - I am so happy you are with me today. You have made me feel comfortable and knowing in my heart that you have helped me look like the person I have always wanted to be. It is wonderful that I had a great doctor, and a sweet lady work with me. You both have made me so happy, and you have both made my dreams come true (my husbands too!) You're the best! With many thanks, D.K.
Dr. Lapidus - Thank you for your patience and guidance through this endeavor. I truly appreciate all you have done. All My Best, T.L.
"I've spent hours searching for the perfect physician to do the procedure for me and reading what I've read about you on-line was very very impressive. Dr. Ringler, thank you for helping so many people and giving so much of yourself, you have an amazing testimony, what a blessing you are...THANK YOU so very very much and for the pretty white spa robe - wow - what a sweet surprise, thank you!" B.
"I will only use Dr. Ringler He is an amazing person and an amazing surgeon. I met with him and we discussed what my hopes were, regarding improving the appearance of my neck. I am 37 years old, a bit over weight, and had a double chin going on. It wasn't even exactly a double chin (well, it was that too) but I felt it was a bit like a turkey neck where I didn't have much of a jaw-line definition and rather my neck was full from the tip (bottom) of my chin to my lower neck. Dr. Ringler agreed that Smartlipo would be a good procedure to help remedy this and bring me excellent results. He was right. The procedure went great! The end results is my neck looking like what I look like when I'm 30lbs lighter. I absolutely love what Dr. Ringler did for me. He is so kind and genuine and TALENTED. He is extremely skilled and I trust him completely." E.
"Thank you so much for the beautiful work you did on my facelift. It achieved the results I was hoping for. It looks natural and symmetrical. Thanks also to your wonderful staff. You are the BEST!" K.K.
"I want you to know the work you have done for me is beautiful. I think you are the best doctor on the face of the earth. Thank you for making my life so much better." B.B.
"Congratulations to you for being named by U.S. news and World Report as a Top Doctor in Plastic Surgery. Of course, I already knew that!! My warmest wishes for continues successes (I'm one of them) and much happiness." C.C.
"I wanted to thank you again for the great job you and your staff provided. You are a very dear and kind man and all the personal attention was appreciated. Also, thank you for the robe that was sent home with me. That was very generous of you." F.H.
"Dr. Ringler is not only a fantastic surgeon, but he is a tremendous individual. His bedside manner is wonderful and his office staff is warm and friendly and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend, at the least, having a consultation with Dr. Ringler if you are considering any type of cosmetics procedure or surgery. I was thoroughly impressed to read how involved Dr. Ringler is with "Operation Smile," and organization dedicated to helping children with facial deformities in other countries. He is a kind man who truly listens to your concerns and wishes and does a phenomenal job making them come to life." G.D.
"Dr. Ringler has been more than a blessing to me. He has performed several facial surgeries on me for a dog bite from my childhood to my adolescent years. If it was not for him and his wonderful staff I would not be where I am today. I promised him I would check in with him once I grew up. I am married, had my first child, and am a nurse pursuing my RN degree. Thank you so much, you truly are a blessing =)" A.P.
"The best...the absolute best. Was almost destroyed by another doctor." L.F.
"Thank you for the very nice robe you gave me after my surgery. It was especially nice for me since I forgot and brought only pull over pajamas. Thank you also for giving me your private number for my after hours and finding a nearby pharmacy open late. I'm grateful that I chose you to do my surgery. I know I was in the best hands. Thank you again for everything." D.D.
"I researched four surgeons: two female, two male (all from different offices). All had the accreditation, credentials and qualifications. All four had wonderful, welcoming offices; however, Dr. Steven Ringler was the surgeon who stood out amongst them all...he has a five page printout of local, state, national and even international credentials AND accomplishments and he trained most of the plastics surgeons in town (one surgeon of which Dr. R trained happened to be in my "foursome" random pick!). Dr. R is amazing...research him! My sister who is in the medical field in Muskegon offered to drive in from Muskegon to pick me up and bring back to G.R. because she was convinced that the plastic surgeon she knew was the best...come to find out her surgeon was also trained by Dr. R! It was very clear what my decision was going to be. I had my breast augmentation done by Dr. R; he is a set-apart professional. He is a gentle, humble man and I was exceedingly comfortable with him. I had a rich experience with him, his staff and the surgical staff! His "scarless scar" looks just like a crease in my arm pit. I (& my husband) am so very pleased with my implants (which were saline) and the healed "scarless scar". I waited eight months before writing this review so I could see the healed affects from the surgery...I am so VERY pleased at the results. (fyi: I went from an A cup to a high C) Do your plastic surgeon/implant research! It is eye opening! You will be amazed at the accredited information you will find in regards to implants (esp. on the FDA web site)! Do not completely put your life in the hands of your surgeon in regards to the implants...do your own homework...set aside a few hours and research your implant products...know the pros and cons for each! Be informed!"
"Dr. R and his staff of super helpful nurses and administrators are awesome. They make you feel instantly at home, special and comfortable. In addition to their bedside excellence, Dr. R and nurse P are exceptionally confident medical specialists. I had ultherapy just yesterday and it was a piece of cake with wonderful results. Visit them for happy results!"
"From the consultation to the procedure to aftercare, Dr. Ringler and his entire staff made me feel so at ease and comfortable! Dr. Ringler truly is a caring doctor, he took the time to answer all of my questions. I recommend him 100% and although in my 40s, have never looked better!"
"I highly recommend Dr. R because he is absolutely committed to bringing the most up-to-date services to his patients. You can be certain your visit with Dr. R will include professionalism, conscientious care and astute attention to detail, without a sales pitch to do more than you need!

“Dr. Warnock was completely respectful, informative and educated. I love his genuine concern for me, my results, and my outcome expectations. Not only was he caring, he was realistic and honest about what I could expect./I could not be happier with my results. Dr. Warnock was honest with me, I felt safe having him operate on me. My pain was much less than I expected and I believe that had a lot to do with Dr. Warnock's operating technique. I saw 4 doctors for consultations before choosing Dr. Warnock, he was the only one out of those 4 who told me that he didn't think I needed a breast augmentation and the only one who gave me input on a size, and recommendations, the other 3 doctors just told me that size was my decision and I believe I would have gone too large if it wasn't for his educated recommendations!” A.M.
“He was interested in doing the surgery for me. Another doctor I visited didn't care whether he got my business or not. Dr. Warnock was very easy to talk with. I felt very comfortable with him. 🙂 My mom had this procedure done as well. Her experience made me very picky with which doctor to choose for my augmentation. When I first met with Dr. Warnock he was very enthusiastic about my decision. He told me all of the pros and cons of having it done. He is very confident in his work. I had about 4 visits to try on sizes before I made my final decision. And I'm sure I could have come in as many times as I wanted. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.” S.J.
“I chose Dr. Warnock because of his knowledge, confidence, before and after portfolio, he made me feel at ease, his lack of arrogance, and he never seemed rushed during consults. “I just want to thank Dr. Warnock for his patience and understanding with my concerns and for the outstanding treatment I received from him and his staff. Thank you for working with me and putting up with me.” K.B.
“I chose Dr. Warnock because, he was more thorough. The staff educated me more on the procedure, and I liked the doctor and staff better. I didn't know what type of questions to ask about a procedure I didn't know anything about. Dr. Warnock and the nurses informed me on every aspect of the procedure. They actually helped me to understand what I needed to ask. I was completely at ease with the doctor and nurses. I saw other doctors. Dr Warnock made me feel so comfortable and educated on what I would have done. The nurses were available when I called in with questions. You all are awesome!” T.A.
“I am so pleased with the outcome of my surgery. I had a very pleasant, easy recovery and I couldn't be happier with my results. I wanted a full yet "natural" look and Dr. Warnock helped me find a size that fit my body perfectly. I am so glad I did this!! Thank you so very much!” C.A.
“Dr. Warnock’s bedside manner is down to earth, comfortable and friendly, which is not common among doctors. The office staff is very friendly and accommodating. Dr. Warnock just didn't have the arrogance many do; he spent time answering questions and didn't seem hurried. He has a sense of humor it was very personable. Everyone from the front office all the way to Dr. Warnock and surgery crew were friendly, funny, and knowledgeable and made each visit comfortable. I just really appreciate quality healthcare and people who do their jobs well. I recommend you to everyone who asks about my surgery.” R.J.
“I felt that he was the most approachable as a person, and didn't leave me feeling rushed or pushed into anything. I feel my overall experience with Dr. Warnock and his staff was great. I am most impressed with how friendly he and his nurses were and how comfortable they made me feel. Never once did I feel rushed or persuaded into anything. I was extremely impressed that he also offered to have a questionable mole be sent to pathology. He also offered me education on my hypertrophic scarring and treatment options for this. After the surgery I was very excited and happy with my results. While friends showed me post op pictures of them after their breast augmentation surgeries all bruised up (they went through other doctors)- I never had ONE bruise. He truly is the best surgeon and I will recommend him to everyone.” K.L.
"I am so incredibly grateful that I came to you for my surgery. If I'd have known it would have been that easy I would have done it years ago. People asked me the day after if I would have done it again and I said 'Yes!' Thank you so much for what you did for me! You guys are the best!"
"I absolutely love your office and was treated like part of the family! Dr. Warnock is a fantastic surgeon and I would and will refer other friends and family. Thank you so much for all you have done for me!"
"I was very happy with the entire experience. I had heard that he was one of the best and I now know why. He will come very highly recommended by me. Thank You!!"
"I feel beautiful and confident. I am so extremely pleased with the procedures. I'm telling everyone. I will be having more work done myself as needed!"
"I cannot believe the high level of satisfaction I received from this surgery and process. Dr. Warnock and his staff were so easy to talk to. I have never felt so comfortable and appreciated as I did after my surgery. I've already recommended your office to a few friends! Thank you again for making this process so easy and worth it!" A.W.
"I have enjoyed my implants so much. It was the best decision I ever made. I feel so much more confident about myself and my body. Dr. Warnock and his nurses are the best!" B.S.
"Dr. Warnock does great work. I have sent many friends to him and will come back in the future. He is a very talented man." R.T.
"I was incredibly impressed with the service I received. I have recommended Dr. Warnock to many people. He and his staff were great and made the experience great. Had I known it was going to be this easy and enjoyable I would have done it much sooner. Thanks Dr. Warnock!" T.L.
Dear Dr. Goldman, Thank you for the superior care I have received from you and your staff. Your professional, caring and dignified demeanor helped me feel comfortable in an awkward situation. The results of my breast augmentation are even better than I had expected. This discomfort was minimal, yet the improvement in my quality of life has increased significantly. I would be happy to relate my positive experience in a testimonial for you. I am also looking forward to my follow-up visit next Monday and a future "tummy-tuck” also. H.P.
Dr. Goldman is the most compassionate doctor I have met. I interviewed many plastic surgeons prior to my mastectomy and reconstruction. He was the most honest and caring doctor. The quality of his work is beautiful. You would never know that I had reconstruction. I can not say enough good things about Dr. Goldman. You can not go wrong with him as your doctor. M.B.
"Dear Dr. Vu: Thank you so much for my procedure! I absolutely love it. I can't wait till I go back to school and the summer to show off what you did for me. What you did for me helped my physical appearance and also helped me mentally. Now I feel so much more confident….You may hear this all the time, but you can make people feel so good. I am really glad you were my doctor for this. I really love the results and can't wait till I can start working out! I knew going into this I wouldn't change 'me,' but I do feel different and I love it! Thank you.
About Choosing Dr. Steve Vu "He educates you….gives you detailed information. It's warm and comfortable with him." "I love Tammy (patient care representative). She's like a buddy." Recovery "I had my procedure on Thursday and was back to work and taking care of my daughter on Monday. It was a little bit painful at first—then nothing. No complications." Results "I'm so pleased with the results—they're so realistic. To people who know me, I do look like I have more, but it's very natural." Note: Her experience was so good that she's recommended Dr. Vu to her sister, her boss and her coworkers. They've all had the surgery.
About Choosing Dr. Steve Vu "The more informed you are, the less apprehensive you are, and Dr. Vu explained exactly what would happen." "He has such a considerate manner. He asked what my expectations were, and he really listened. He worked with me to get the best results, but he's honest: he told me that I wouldn't look like an 18-year-old!" "He offered to explain everything to my husband, which turned out to be very helpful." Recovery "Aftercare was excellent: I had 24-hour nursing care in my home at the beginning, and my healing went well—I hadn't known what to expect. The pain pump they supplied kept me pain-free for the first 5 days. It just numbed the pain—I wasn't sleepy." "Both Dr. Vu and Tammy called me after the surgery to see how I was. Dr. Vu even met me at his office one Sunday morning to examine and reassure me when I had a question during my recovery." Results "Far better than I had expected. I went from 4 lbs of excess abdominal skin to flat abs. I looked great after 3 months, and even better after 6 months." "I just feel better about myself." "This has built my self-esteem enormously—I'm more self-assured. I'm trying more things now that I wouldn't have otherwise." "It was like a miracle. It changed my life."
About Choosing Dr. Steve Vu "I did lots of research, then I consulted with six or seven doctors. I first checked whether there were any malpractice suits against them, whether they were board-certified, and so on. I found out that some of them weren't even certified in plastic surgery—they had other specialties. Dr. Vu met all the criteria, plus some, such as recent training in the latest techniques." "When you get down to it, it's about 'bedside manner.' The way he explains things to you gives you comfort. He explains everything thoroughly, but he's not condescending." "He sets expectations where they should be, and your health and recovery are his number-one considerations. He said he wouldn't give me a tummy tuck until I'd lost 20 lbs and not smoked for 30 days, because the results wouldn't be what I wanted and needed. Other surgeons were ready to operate right away." "I'd trust him with my life. I highly recommend him to my friends. The nurses and Tammy are great, too." Cost "There are no hidden costs. Dr. Vu has his own clinic, his own nurses and anesthesiologist. Some other doctors quoted their surgical fees to me, then there were all these add-ons such as outside clinic time rental, etc." Recovery "I was very pleased with my aftercare and recovery. With the pain control pump I used for five days, I had no pain at all, yet I wasn't 'drugged.'" "I had my tummy tuck on a Friday, and I was back to work the following Wednesday." "I had my breast reduction on Friday, and I was back to work on Tuesday." Results "My results were everything I wanted, even more..." "The whole experience was great."
About Choosing Dr. Steve Vu "My primary physician recommended him, after I'd had consultations with five other plastic surgeons over a period of three years." "I wasn't convinced that the other doctors were right for me. I just didn't like the "look" I saw at their offices, but I liked what I saw at Dr. Vu's. Other doctors wanted to do additional procedures I didn't think were necessary (extra implants in my face, unnecessary liposuction in my face, etc.). Dr. Vu really knows what he's doing on the face…" "You need to trust the people you're working with, which I did in Dr. Vu's clinic." "Other medical professionals—like the nurses—want him if they get work done. That's high praise." "Dr. Vu is friendly, like being with your brother, easy to talk to. There's great ease of communication with him." Recovery "After 4 weeks, I was totally comfortable and could go back to work." Results "I still look like myself…natural, but better…" "I get an amazing number of compliments. People mostly tell me I look refreshed, radiant, rested… But one woman said to me, 'You used to be pretty, but now you're just drop-dead gorgeous!'" Unexpected Results "After my surgery, I cleaned up my act a lot—stopped smoking and cut out caffeine, for example—because I had a new perspective on my health and general well-being." "In other words, my surgery became a catalyst to do other good things for myself."
"I'm so pleased with my results—I'd repeat my experience in a heartbeat! When you decide to have plastic surgery, you want a doctor who'll go for the best aesthetic result, but also the most realistic one. Dr. Vu is phenomenal that way, and he makes you feel so comfortable. He takes you under his wing and explains everything so clearly. I recommend Dr. Vu very highly to my friends."
"Dr. Vu, I was so tired of looking tired. My granddaughter was asking why I frowned all the time. Even my mother, whom I don't get to see very often, told me I should go away, take a vacation, get a rest. Several months later (after a procedure by Dr. Vu), I visited my mom again. When she saw me, she was thrilled with how I looked. She was so happy that I'd taken her advice about the "vacation." She still is! I wasn't interested in looking like I was in my twenties again. I just wanted to look rested and relaxed. You know, when you look like you feel good, people around you feel better, too, and life is just more upbeat!"
"My sister and I both were very happy and satisfied with our procedures and with the whole atmosphere at the clinic. They were so open and friendly, and always answered any questions I had. I did a lot of research before going to Dr. Vu, checking his credentials out thoroughly, but I was even more impressed with him in person. He's totally ethical—won't do anything that he thinks isn't right for you or not in proportion to your body. Some other doctors were ready to do any surgery I could pay for. Dr. Vu really seemed to care about me and about getting the best possible results. I had no problems in recovery, just a little pain the first week, yet they wanted to be sure I came for checkups and that everything was going well."
Dear Dr. Greenberg & Staff, Just a small note of thanks for all of your support during and after my surgeries. I have never been happier about myself and I absolutely love the results! Good Doctors "as well as staff" are truly hard to come by but "you all" are truly professionals. You are "5" star with me! I'll be back for more (Ha Ha!), thank you again! Love D
Dear Dr. Greenberg, Thank you for everything you have done for me. I feel like a new person. You are a perfectionist and take such concern with all your patients. You are always calm and so reassuring. You are very special and we would like to tell you that you are ""one in a million"". Ps. You also have a wonderful staff!! Tell your mom I said she should be very proud of her son.
Dear Dr. Greenberg, Never in my wildest dreams... did I think my tummy tuck would turn out as fantastic as it did. It looks better than all the magazines, including Victoria's Secret. Thank you seems so inadequate for your genius... so I'll say God Bless you for all you've done for me!!! Sincerely K.G.
Dear Dr. Greenburg (aka "Dr. Fabulous"!) "You" did a great job too! Thanks for being an outstanding surgeon from beginning to end. You are truly a class act and you have a "great" team behind you! Your devoted fan. M.G.
Dear Dr. Greenberg, Last time I was in your office I joked about how lightly you take what you do. I guess when you do something everyday it becomes routine. You have such a major impact in many lives but most importantly to me is the impact you've had in my life. I am now 40 I had my son when I was 20. I was very much in shape size five and very happy with myself. After my son I was 15lbs heavier and had a major pouch in the abdominal area, not to mention the stretch marks. It was a small price to pay for my son and after having my daughter again I was 10 pounds heavier on top of the 15 from my son. I knew then both my kids came first and did neglect myself because of that but I wouldn't have changed a thing. My son is now 20 and my daughter is 17 it was time for me. I knew 5 years ago when I turned 40 I wanted a tummy tuck. So one year ago I joined kickboxing which has also changed my life, I lost 30 pounds and have completely changed my whole body. That was the start of my journey. It did take me a whole two years to talk my husband into paying for it he felt that I looked good and loved me just the way I was. But I have learned it doesn't matter what your husband thinks, it doesn't matter what your friends think. Bottom line is you need to be happy with yourself and I wasn't. When I walked into your office a year ago I knew no matter what it took I was getting this for my 40th birthday. Well I did and I remember the day after the surgery you came to see me. You took off the bandage to look I remember saying I am not going to look I didn't want to be grossed out. But after you took off the bandages I did look down and I just said "oh my god it looks amazing" you just smiled as if to say yeah I know. After you left I started to cry it did it looked amazing and if none of the swelling ever went down I would be happy. To anyone else you see a major scar it is so much more it is like a scar to cover many scars. I was twenty just married with a new baby and very unhappy about the way I looked, what I was going through at twenty most of my friends went through ten years later. I have always worked full time and had to get dressed up for work, every time I had to get dressed I was depressed I found myself sucking in my stomach so it wouldn't hang over my clothes or stick out when I had a dress on. I never felt pretty. Twenty years of sucking in your stomach is a very long time. Thank you! You are amazing. You have helped me change my life. I feel great; I have a confidence I never thought I would have. When I get dressed for work in the morning I like what I see in the mirror, my dress clothes look nice and have never felt better in a pair of jeans and tee shirt.
"Dr. Davis and his staff are the most sincere and friendliest people we encountered while searching for a plastic surgeon for our son. Dr. Davis' character and integrity gave us the confidence we needed to proceed with our son's otoplasty. Our family considers Dr. Davis and his staff our new friends. Thank you Dr. Davis for making an impact on our son's life as well as our family. We appreciate who you are as a great doctor but more as a great person." Z. Family
"Dr. Davis is one of the most professional, nicest and knowledgeable doctors I have ever been to. He was HIGHLY recommended to me by 2 friends and also a co-worker, as well as my Primary Care doctor. Before my surgery, Dr. Davis spent a few hours over 2 appointments with me, explaining all that would happen during my cosmetic surgery and answering all my questions. His nurses and office staff were also very helpful with questions I had before surgery. It was downright fun being there! My experience with Dr. Davis and his staff was nothing less than WONDERFUL! I would highly recommend him to anyone who is interested in plastic surgery, as he was very professional and courteous. I would never go to another Plastic Surgeon, because Dr. Davis is the BEST! I don't know what the other reviewer was thinking because I think Dr. Davis is very ethical and upholds the ideals of a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon." M.
"I have been a patient of Dr. Davis for 5 years. When I first met with him, he took the time to evaluate my situation and scheduled the procedure for me promptly. I found him and his staff to be wonderful from start to finish and I cannot believe that I waited so long to have this procedure done. Since then, I have been back to him on two other occasions for unrelated minor procedures and very happy with the results. My wife and I have recommended him to several of our friends for both small and large procedures and all have been very happy with the Results and have had a positive experience!" B.
"I thought about Plastic Surgery for many years. Then, with the help of Dr. Davis, I decided what would be best for me. My surgery turned out wonderfully...now I look better and feel better about myself everyday. I am only sorry I waited so long."
"Dear Dr. Davis, I just wanted to send you this note to thank you for giving me my life back. I have been plagued with neck, back, shoulder and arm pain for years due to large breasts. I have tried all kinds of things to eliminate the pain and nothing worked. I was hesitant about getting a breast reduction, thinking I would be incapacitated for a long period of time. Immediately coming out of surgery I noticed the difference and no longer had the severe neck and shoulder pain. Within 2 days of surgery I was not taking any pain pills for anything, including my pre-existing neck and shoulder problems. Within 3 days I was back to driving and living life as normal. I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful work you did. All of my friends and co-workers tell me I look rested and look as though I've lost 20 pounds! My only regret is that I didn't do this years ago. Thanks again for everything!" C.K.
"Dr Ronan's evaluation and recommendation for tummy tuck and lipo for best results was right. He did an incredible job on the sculpting and I love the results. His staff was excellent! Special thanks to Sandy for answering all my daily questions and being very attentive to my needs. Julie was terrific and Brett extremely helpful. I was confident with Kelly the day of my surgery and she was always supportive during my office visits. I would be happy to be a contact for anyone who has questions before or after surgery. Having someone to talk to about what happens in real life with surgery is helpful. The tummy tuck is a rough recovery- but so worth the results of a flat stomach (and now a size 2). I give Dr Ronan my highest praise for his work and his office team is excellent. I will be happy to recommend Dr. R to anyone and be a reference if needed. Thank You for Everything." L.S.
"I had my consult with Dr. Ronan yesterday. I know a lot of women would frown at me, but I was so impressed with him and his staff that I set my surgery date without checking out other surgeons. In fact, they all actually encouraged me to see other surgeons before choosing, but I just know that this is my team. For any other newbies who want to know what a consultation is like, I'll describe mine below. I hope this helps somebody. When I walked in I was greeted by Tami, who is an absolute sweetie. She gave me some forms to fill out and I was so nervous that I just sat and filled them in without looking around. When I finally looked at the room it was beautiful - It didn't look like any doctor's office I've ever been in before. Everything is in beige tones or off-white, it's very modern and stylish. It felt more like a ritzy living room than a doctor's office. He has pictures of his office on his website if anyone is interested. Tami took me into the consultation room and I met Troi, the patient coordinator. She told me about her background as a surgeon consultant (very impressive) and gave me background on Dr. Ronan. We talked about why I wanted surgery and talked about my history. Then Dr. Ronan came in. For a surgeon who has done as much as he has, I was surprised by how young he is. We spoke for a long time - he was very thorough about the risks and all the options. I was impressed that he and Troi both told me to talk to several surgeons before making up my mind. He left the room for a few minutes and I undressed and was given a black, cotton robe to put on. He came back in and after examining me and looking through lots of photos, we decided I should go with a transaxillary incision with Inamed round, smooth regulars with 330-360 cc's of saline (I'm a 34 AA right now and want to be a C)." A.
"I had been considering surgery for over 10 years, yet had a lot of fear. I had 3 consultations over the years with different doctors and never felt right with them. From the minute I entered BPS, I knew this was the place for me. Dr. Ronan and staff are great!" J.H.
"Dear Dr. Ronan & Staff I apologize if I can't recall everyone's name but I just wanted to thank you all again for the wonderful and amazing job on my procedure (breast augmentation). I didn't expect them to turn out this great and I'm so incredibly happy with the results. I'm almost a month post-op and feeling great. I wanted to thank Dr. Ronan for doing an amazing job and for your great advice and comfort in this procedure because I won't deny it, I was nervous. And my anesthesiologist, my god he was wonderful, so wonderful that I can't recall his name because I was a little loopy and giggling a lot at that time. I'm sure there were others in the room that I can't recall either and I wanted them all to know that I appreciate everything they have done. I woke up from the procedure not feeling any pain whatsoever, no nausea, just a little drunk feeling and I was in shock that anything had been done so I had to look and make sure and Whoa! Yep they're there! I was able to move about the same day and but as the doctor said, no matter how good you feel, to take it easy so I had to force myself to relax, veg out and catch up on my t.v shows. I was already shopping by Day 3…some light shopping of course and it was an amazing feeling not to have to wear a miracle bra or any bra for that matter and still feel confident in myself. I still didn't experience any pain, only some discomfort getting out of bed because you just don't realize how many chest muscles you use trying to sit up but overall that, the breast massage and removing the catheter on the pain pump were the only slightly discomforting incidences of the whole experience and what a relief that was. I had read up on many stories of women waking up feeling like they had been hit by a mack truck but as I say "expect the worse and hope for the best” well I felt a million times better than I ever would have expected and that is NO exaggeration. The pain pump was my best friend!! One of my fears was that I would actually be able to feel them as a foreign object but that's not the case, I don't feel them at all and they feel so natural!! I ended up going from a very very small A to a large C/small D and was still able to fit in most of my shirts but they were just so much more flattering and my bathing suits, WOW, they looked great and can't wait for summer to get here! I showed many of my friends and they were shocked about how great they look and now a few of them are wanting to get them done too. My boyfriend wasn't too excited at first about the whole idea because "he loves me for me”, what a good boyfriend! But this was something I had wanted for 10 years, not for anyone else, it was for me. But he thinks they turned out great as well. I definitely shouldn't have waited 10 years. Thank you all again for your wonderful care, comforting advice and just for everything you have done for me!! It's amazing how much confidence I have now and the breast augmentation has actually improved my posture, when you would think it would have the reverse effect…I think it's because of the confidence! Dr. Ronan, you are definitely an amazing and gifted surgeon and I'm so glad I didn't go anywhere else. If you ever have requests of patients that would like to talk with any of your post-operative patients, feel free to give them my information and I'd be happy to speak with them. You don't need to keep me anonymous. Sorry for such a long novel!!" S.T.
"Dr Ronan is an artist. I am extremely satisfied with the results and will definitely recommend him to anyone who asks!" B.L.
"I have had four appointments with Dr Ronan. Each one was a good experience. I was promptly greeted and taken to a procedure room within 10 minutes of my arrival. Dr Ronan has been punctual, informative and approachable. My husband (who was my caretaker) and I were very impressed with the professionalism and personal touch the staff at Blackhawk Plastic Surgery rendered." D.B.
"Dear Dr Ronan, I don't think that I had a chance to say 'thank you' for a fantastic job you've done on my nose. You listened and understood what was important to me. I fell so blessed that I chose you as my surgeon. Thank you . Thank you. Everything is just the way that I have hoped for my nose to turn out. Look forward to our next meeting. Also want to acknowledge your staff in the office. They were very warm and encouraging." A.N.
"I have been very pleased with my experience here, from the initial contact to the late calls on the weekend after my procedure. I have been taken very good care of. Thank you. VR 2. The girls are always pleasant to talk with, and the nurses are always full of information and comforting. Dr. Ronan is a fabulous surgeon. I will be recommending his skills to all the ladies." S.B.
"Thank you again for taking good care of your patients and follow through with patient care. You walk the walk! You make a person feel like nothing wrong will happen to them when they are under your care." A.S.
"Just wanted to thank you for your care and amazing results. (and your patience for my endless questions) I appreciate your professionalism." J.A.
"First of all I just want to say I think your whole center is wonderful. Bedside manner and customer service is key and the entire staff has what it takes to make me feel like I am part of the family" M.K.
"From the date of my consultation to the present, your staff has been overly accommodating and friendly. I could not be happier with my results as well as having chosen your facility for my procedure. Thank you." J.B.
"I felt very well cared for at all times. Dr Ronan and Kemerer (anesthesiologist) were professional, kind and attentive. Very professional, informative and compassionate!! I had the best loving care that I have ever had, the staff were all wonderful, loving people. I would highly recommend Dr Ronan and his staff. Thank you!" K.M.
"Have had procedures done at 2 other plastic surgeons' offices, by far you guys are the BEST!!!" R.S.
"Thanks for the loading parking spot. It was great having Dr. Ronan call. It was comforting and made you feel like you were being treated at a personal level rather that just another lady having a boob job!" L.A.
"My procedure results were just unbelievable and I was overwhelmed with that a fantastic job Dr Ronan did - I had no idea how long and how much I hated my appearance until. . . well, it's really a miracle and I love the way that I look and feel." G.P.
"Dear Dr. Ronan, I just wanted to drop you a short note and let you know how wonderful I feel and look thanks to you and your wonderful staff Today is my 34th anniversary and I look and feel better than I did on the day I was married. I know when I look in the mirror how great I look, because of your wonderful work you did. I just wanted to thank you again and will see you on October 16. October 14th I will be 56 but I look 20 years younger with this body." S.C.
"Dr. Stephen J Ronan Blackhawk Plastic Surgery Like so many that consider cosmetic surgery, I knew what I wanted as an outcome. However, I had no idea of the road that I would have to travel to reach that destination. I would consider myself fortunate to have found you. From the initial call, your receptionist was both professional and warm. When I told her what I wanted, she laughed with me and I felt comfortable. It only got better was I was transferred to your patient coordinator, who listened and answered all my questions. When gems they are and they represent you very well. They were always so gracious when I called and needed assistance. Their honesty and candor served me well. Their willingness to share their own experiences was so appreciated. I knew what to except and there were no surprises. Thank you. I also want to thank you for your easy way of interacting with me. Thank you Dr. Ronan. I am so pleased with the results of my procedure. I feel good. PERIOD. I feel good about how I look, about how I physically fell and about how well this entire ‘thing’ has gone. Your skills and professionalism are much appreciated. Do not be surprised if you see me in the future. Take care and I wish you all the best." N.M.
"Dr. Ronan, I wanted to thank you for transforming me into the confident person I always dreaming of becoming. Words cannot express how pleased I am with the results of my surgery. I feel like a new person. I was extremely impressed with your staff members – they are all caring people who obviously love what they do for a living. From the time of my first consultation through to my post-surgical check ups, both you and your staff members provided exemplary service and make me feel comfortable at all times. Blackhawk Plastic Surgery is a fine establishment and I will highly recommend your surgical expertise to everyone I know. Once again, thank you (I am sure that I will be using your services again in the future!)." K.M.
"Dearest Dr. Ronan, It’s been almost 6 months since my surgery and I feel bad that it has taken me so long to send you this 'thank you.' Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is the first word that comes to mind and then . . . Unbelievable! I can't begin to tell you how everyday is better and I’m about as confident as I can be. We bought a ski boat and I must be the oldest lady out there wakeboarding. I'm working our and with the liposuction done around my trunk it had left me with a great butt, with a shelf, something that I have always wanted this was a real bonus and surprise. I have always had a flat butt and now it looks like I had a lift. I can day that it was worth every dime and any pain that I had to endure. I'm looking forward to a facelift and my breasts being done in the future. I would not think of going to another Doctor than Dr. Ronan and recommend him to all. Many thanks!!! My husband says that I get smaller everyday. I went from a tight size 8 to a loose size 6 and in many styles a size 4 ~ wow!!!! Thank you so . . . much!" K.K.
"Dr. Ronan and staff, Just a quick note to say thank you for enhancing the real me. I have and will continue to recommend all of you to anybody and everyone I can! Thanks for helping me become a better person and look like a million backs! Best wishes to you all, Thanks and God Bless!" J.V.
"Hi Dr. Ronan! I wanted to take a brief moment to thank you as usual for your gentle and supportive care during the procedure Wednesday morning! I hope that you and your family enjoy a lovely weekend! I look forward to seeing you next week and talking to you about possibilities for updates on me in the future. I am grateful to you for always caring for me in such a nice way! I know that I am a nervous one, so I appreciate you being patient in my regard! HUGS!" A.
"I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know I’m amazed with my results so far. Since I saw you last appointment I've gotten smaller (you were right it does just starting dropping off) and I can't believe that shape that I am seeing. I might actually get my pre-wedding, pre-pregnancy figure back. My body looks almost as good as I did in my early twenties. So I wanted to thank you for that. For while I didn't believe I was ever going to look that good again. I also wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your follow-up and calling the night of surgery, etc. That is SO RARE to fund and I wish there were more out there like you!" D.M.
"Dear Dr. Ronan I wanted to send out a special thank you for the amazing job you did on my surgery. I am now 6 months post-op and I have been very satisfied with the results. When I can to you about getting a breast reduction, I had so much anxiety about what the end result would be. After seeing multiple post-op pictures of patients that you have done previously, I decided to go with the surgery. You were absolutely wonderful before and after the procedure and immediately contactable when I had questions. The results are now beyond my expectations and I cannot wait to go to the beach so I can wear my new bikini. You have demonstrated yourself to be a dedicated and professional surgeon as well as incredibly skillful and competent in the eyes of staff and patients. As a surgical nurse, I can now say that I have personally benefited under the hands of the most qualified plastic surgeon that I have ever known." C.G.
"Dear Dr. Ronan I just want to say thank you for the generous amount of time you took with me the other day to consult with me about the different options for breast reconstruction. I so appreciate your honesty and in-depth explanations, not to mention your time and attention to detail to even taking measurements; that was a first for me. I will certainly being seeing you in the near future. Thank you." D.B.

"Dr. Ronan I do not believe there are enough words to express to you and your marvelous staff Missy, Amy, Lee, Lauren, Susan, Stanley and Dr. Kemerer how wonderful my experience was (except for the pain, of course!). Even that being said, you and your staff were there for me everyday. I applaud each and every one of you for your superb professionalism and service. My little grandbaby Jayla (aka Nurse Jayla) was so impressed that she wanted to work at your office. That is coming from a 4 year old! Not only is there a difference in my physical appearance; my emotions are soaring as well. You are all much appreciated." A.S.
"Dr. Ronan and staff, Thank you for the most wonderful experience a woman could have under the circumstances I was in. May your office and all your staff, Dr. Ronan, be blessed with health and prosperity. Thanks." R.O.
"I have composed so many letters of happiness and gratitude to you in my mind I thought it was time to properly write you a nice thank you note. I want to thank you for your many years of hard work, sacrifice and total dedication that it took you to become, The Expert in your field. I had never given up hope and wished for someone just like you and thanks to Dr. Shorr I finally found you. I can't begin to tell you how happy and grateful I am that you were able to achieve such a lovely and refined nose for me. It is everything I had dreamed of or hoped for. The tip is pretty and dainty. I keep looking in the mirror and love what I see. I shall never forget you and I will always be grateful for what you have done for me. You are such a kind and nice man. And the greatest of doctors." M.P.
"Even had this not been my first surgery, I'm sure I would have been somewhat anxious. Yet, I felt more at ease knowing I was in the skilled hands of someone who would give much thought & consideration as to how best to approach my case. The patient manner in which you have answered my questions post operatively has also been reassuring, & I look forward to being able to fully appreciate your artwork as soon as the swelling subsides entirely," R.G.
"I would like to express how grateful I am, I consider myself lucky to have found such a knowledgeable, skilled, talented, and artistic surgeon like yourself. You not only fixed the flaw which impacted my life so negatively but you also turned it into something that I can finally look at in the mirror and truly love it! You are by far the BEST at what you DO!" K.B.
"You are a genius! You operated on me after many unsuccessful surgeries in the past. I wish I found you initially rather than going to the surgeons I had picked. Thankfully, because you came highly recommended. I found you at last. You changed my life and restored my confidence. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you..." L.W.
"Thank you for your expertise, kind spirit & generous heart! It looks good and I love you!!!" C.H.
"I am the happiest person in the world since Dr Pincus' absolutely impeccable work! My nose was a wreck after 7 surgeries with other surgeons, and filled with Restylane to conceal the damage. You couldn't even see where the cartilage of the nose used to be. I was very scared to have another surgery. After 7 times of something going wrong or collapsing, it was impossible to expect even a good result. Not to mention all the scar tissue, physical and emotional, that was so difficult to work around. I'd just been happy if Dr Pincus made it decent and normal-looking. Turned out, he made is AMAZING! Nobody can tell I had rhinoplasty even once, my nose is so elegant, feminine and cute at the same time, and it fits my face perfectly! It even made me look years younger. I will be grateful to Dr Pincus forever, I feel like I regained my confidence, playfulness and joy for life! Instead of feeling like a freak, I feel like a fairy tale princess! Thanks so much, Dr P." K.S.
"I am so incredibly delighted with my decision to have Dr. Pincus do my 4th (and final) rhinoplasty. My nose had been a mess since my 1st rhinoplasty at age 14, so this time I was very cautious about the surgeon I went to. Dr. Pincus' surgery on my nose exceeded my expectations. When he told me, "you will have a normal looking nose" I was intrigued, yet skeptical. However, he did as promised and more! He gave me a cute nose that fits my face and looks completely natural. I love the tip; 6 months post op I still touch it once in a while because I can't believe that I have such a lovely, well defined tip! I truly believe that he is the best. Also, his staff is great. I have never felt more comfortable during a surgery in my life. I am so grateful to Dr. Pincus and his crew for giving me a very positive experience, from my 1st consult, to my last post-op visit. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Pincus to anyone considering plastic surgery! I'm so thankful that I found you guys! Take care and I will see you soon for my 6 month post op visit." R.J.
"You have an excellent staff. They are very well-informed and have a caring attitude. I am pleased with your facility and my outcome.” T.W.
"I am very satisfied with my nose. It has helped my self-confidence and now I don’t care for people looking at me in the face. I will never forget what you all done for me!” B.T.
"You've done such a beautiful job on my face and your practice is so professional and well-run...What can I say? I'm a true fan!" M.R.
"I just want to thank you for doing such great work on my nose. I wear my glasses now, before I wouldn't because I was afraid the first thing they would notice was my nose. I just wanted you to know I think you did a wonderful job!" A.J.
"It's nice to have a doctor who is skilled in his profession, but also takes time to give emotional support and encouragement to his patients. I can't tell you how much this has meant to me." S.L.
Your compassion and tenderness has blessed me richly. I thank God for your gifted craftsmanship to preserve beauty and dignity." T.J.
"Thanks to all the staff at Waldman Plastic Surgery Center during my surgery period. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks for all you did to make it comfortable." S.B.
"You went all out...and the results were outstanding! Thank you for everything!" C.W.
"This has been such a positive experience for me and because of you all it was comfortable and painless too! I know my nose will look so much better now!" L.G.
"I've never been to a clinic where I felt so comfortable and confident that what I wanted was important to you as well. Thanks for the extra efforts made by your and your staff & I will always highly recommend your office to anyone thinking of having surgery performed. T.S.
"I can tell you, I would not trust anyone else to work on my nose. I look forward to sharing my positive experience with all of your patients and potential patients" K.P.
"I cannot believe when I look in the mirror that my jaw line and neck are so smooth. It looks very natural. I look the way I did ten to fifteen years ago. The little bit of bruising I had after surgery was covered very nicely by Dr. Brown's aesthetician. I am extremely glad I did it and I would do it again. " R.P.
"I am 28 years old and I have been between a triple D since I was 15. I wanted to do the operation when I was younger but my mother wouldn't let me. I have since found out from Dr. Brown that I could have had the operation at a younger age as long as I was willing to accept the risk that my breasts could get larger and then I would have to have the operation done again or at least revised. I was extremely uncomfortable physically and my shoulders ached. In the summer I would often get irritation underneath my breasts. It was very uncomfortable to run, to jazzercise or any type of exercise where I was moving around a lot. I was extremely self-conscious during the summer months when clothing was more revealing and I was uncomfortable socially as well. Now, I feel totally comfortable and I am having an absolute blast when it comes to shopping. I can just go buy anything off the rack. I had to wait about six weeks for any heavy activity, but now I can jog, run and jazzercise." S.K.
"I had a breast reduction when I was 77 years old. I thought I might be too old, however Dr. Brown felt as long as my medical doctor approved it I could have the operation. For me this meant a lot. I'm a diabetic. Dr. Brown reassured me that this operation would not be painful and indeed it was not. I had been uncomfortable my entire life and now I'm feeling so comfortable." D.A.
"I had my nose done some time ago. People now can't even remember what I looked like before. Even though the change was dramatic, when I first had my operation done close friends looked at me and thought I had changed my hairstyle. Dr. Brown did not really change the overall size of my nose; he just rearranged the structure of my nose so that it was pretty and fit in with all the rest of the features of my face. I never regretted for one day having had the operation and I would recommend this operation for anyone. It is not painful, a little uncomfortable for the first few days. There is some black and blue certainly and swelling for a period of a week. Once you get past that ten-day period of time it is really all up hill." L.B.
"I loved my new nose so much. My face never felt balanced before the surgery. It is an operation which is a little uncomfortable the first few days while the packing is in your nose, but once your get over the feeling it certainly is not painful and it is really not even that uncomfortable. I have dreamed of doing it since I was a young girl and having done it, I would recommend it to anybody." S.R.
"I had the maximum amount of liposuction recommended (a little over 5 quarts). I just couldn't lose the weight, so I had my chin done, my arms, my outer and inner thighs, my knees and my abdomen. I can't say how happy I am with Dr. Brown's results. I'm motivated now to lose a little more weight on my own. I was tired for about a week but my energy level came back to normal quickly because Dr. Brown instructed me to just take it easy in the beginning and just slowly begin to do more things." T.T.
"The operation itself was really not painful. I was a little tired for a few days. I had to wear a special garment for about 3-4 weeks but I did not mind that because I could see the improvement in my shape immediately. I am still improving at this point in time, but I just love the way I look. I am really looking forward to the summer because I know I am going to look great in a bikini." C.P.
"I cannot begin to say how happy I am that I had the operation. There was a little bit of pain for a few days but the medication Dr. Brown gave me was more than enough to take care of it. 4-6 weeks after the operation I was able to resume all of my normal activities. I feel so good when I go shopping. I feel so good about myself when I step out of the shower. I feel so good when I am working out at the gym. It is really a great operation. It changed my self-image literally overnight." B.B.
"The operation went much easier than I imagined. Afterwards I immediately felt good about my decision to have a breast enlargement. I particularly enjoyed looking in the mirror and realizing that the balanced figure belonged to me. I also have truly enjoyed shopping for clothes particularly bathing suits. It is an operation that I am really glad that I had done and I would recommend it for anyone." K.H.
"Just want to let you know that I think about you all the time. I have never been so happy with my face as I have been since I have been coming to see you. There was always something I didn't like. Now I look in the mirror and say, 'Thank you Dr. Newman'. L.
"I want to thank you for your excellent work and attention to detail with my Stem Cell LiftA procedure. Everything is working out extremely well, and I am very pleased. Also, I want to extend my gratitude to you and your staff . You made my experience in LA a comfortable and pleasant one, with your attentions and caring attitude towards me and my traveling companion." E.
"At 39 years old, I had terrible bags under my eyes, making me look tired all the time and much older than my actual age. Dr. Newman performed the Stem-Cell LiftA on me. I drove myself home that day! Within about two weeks, my face had returned to normal -- without the bags! People keep telling me I look so well-rested and refreshed. They keep asking me if I went on vacation. They know something is different about me but they can't figure out what. Others who just meet me think that I'm much younger than I actually am. Now I just wake up and don't need to put on makeup to cover up my bags, and have a youthful glow about me. Dr. Newman thank you, thank you, and thank you!" A.K.
"My friends and I have been treated by some of the most well known dermatologists and plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills. None of these doctors can compare to Dr. Nathan Newman with his Stem Cell LiftA . He is the most advanced, cutting edge and brilliant Doctor we have experienced. God has blessed him with great talent and artistry to make you look naturally younger using the Stem Cell LiftA . Every procedure turns out perfectly and exactly like he says it will. I have learned to fully trust what he promises. He knows exactly the right procedures to do to improve the way you look. Above all, Dr. Newman has a beautiful personality, he is lighthearted, fun and one of the nicest people I have ever met." R.R.
"I was impressed by Dr. Newman's knowledge and the basic philosophy he articulates in the article about his approach to the field of cosmetic surgery. My instincts told me here is a person who really cares about his work and obviously loves what he does. Since then, the improvement in my face and neck has been incredible. The results Stem Cell LiftA knocked years off my appearance. People who have not seen me for a while are amazed at the youthfulness I have acquired and people who don't know me assume I am much younger than my actual age. The great thing is, it all looks totally natural. No hint of work is evident. Dr. Newman has integrity. He will not do a procedure just because he can or someone requests it. He is on the cutting edge of cosmetic surgery and knows which procedure will work and be most effective. In other words, you can trust him. It is reassuring to know, once in awhile you come across the real thing. Dr. Newman is the real thing! Thank you Dr. Newman." R.H.
"I am a patient of Dr. Newman. My problem was degeneration and atrophy of the face due to repeated radiation and surgery. Once I sought the help of other doctors I found that they had no idea of how to treat my grotesquely deformed face. Many eminent doctors tried and failed at curing this unsightly condition. This took a period of three years and all to no avail. I lost all hope until I found Dr. Newman. From the very first day Dr. Newman was sanguine and skillful. During all of my treatments Dr. Newman was kind and sympathetic. He truly worked wonders during the Stem Cell LiftA reconstruction of my face. Dr. Newman's interest was in the perfection of his method and in remaining in the avant-garde of his profession. He is the finest doctor that I have ever known and there is no way to thank him for the miracle that he performed on me. Most doctors are concerned with the accrual of money. However, Dr. Newman was more concern of his creation and his patient. To this day whenever I encounter reconstructive or plastic or cosmetic surgeons they always ask the same question "HOW DID HE DO IT?" He is the closest I have ever come to meeting a miracle worker. My face is now perfectly balance. Your way of working with the reconstruction of my face has proved you are one of those fine individuals that truly cares. I want to take this opportunity to express my sincere and deep gratitude for your extraordinary work." H.
"When I tell anyone about my experiences with Dr Newman, it is impossible not to mention the word trust. Having had various procedures with other doctors before meeting Dr Newman, I can honestly say that trust is probably the single, most important factor in choosing any doctor... especially when it comes to cosmetic surgery. Since my first procedure with Dr Newman, I have found his judgment in determining and recommending courses of action for treatment, flawless. His eye for detail and his understanding of a patient's emotional needs are, in my opinion, what makes him truly special in his field. Dr Newman's Stem Cell LiftA procedures have proven to be effective, yet subtle. I didn't look "done" after having undergone the Stem Cell LiftA procedure with Dr. Newman. In fact, when I tell people I have had "work done" after having received a compliment (which I always feel compelled to share with Dr. Newman), I always hear, "Wow! I never would have guessed! You look completely natural!" And that, besides the initial compliment about my appearance, is what reinforces my trust in Dr Newman, and my faith that my face, and body are in the best possible hands! I love the face that greets me in the mirror every morning! Thank you, Dr Newman." E.M.
"When I first met with Dr Newman my biggest concern was resolving the tired look that the dark, thin circles under my eyes were causing. The Stem Cell Facelift really seemed to be my best option. I liked that it lasted so long, it was so much less invasive, more affordable and had better results than a traditional facelift, I got a mini lipo and lastly, I really liked Dr. Newman.It's easy to see the success of my decision when you look at the before and after pictures. But what you can't see in the pictures is the incredible boost to my self-confidence. When I get up in the morning, instead of dreading that first glance in the mirror, I get up and actually look forward to seeing my face! My skin tone and texture is amazing and my favorite part about the whole process is that I look natural. My skin isn't pulled like it would have been with a traditional lift. I look like me, only better! I get compliments daily and NO ONE thinks I had anything done, including my own brother. I saw him 4 weeks after my procedure and he must have said, "You look amazing" a thousand times never guessing that I had had anything done! That was the ultimate test for me. I wouldn't hesitate for 5 minutes to get the Stem Cell Facelift. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. If you want to look amazing, want the best results for the least amount of money, you want it to last and you want it to look natural, the Stem Cell Facelift is perfect for you!" H.M.
Please accept my big and heartfelt thank you for your help yesterday. I feel that I have always received a royal treatment from you and your staff. Please convey my thanks and appreciation to the nurse who helped me yesterday. Like you, she treated me with the utmost care and concern. Finally, my husband and I really appreciate the warm hospitality you front office staff gave us. Again, millions of thanks to all of you!!! X.N.
I am so grateful to have discovered a doctor who not only provides cutting edge healthcare, but also is compassionate, easy to talk to and a pleasure to interact with. I found Dr. Newman after suffering for many years with Lichen Sclerosis. I was dealing with constant burning and discomfort, as well as tearing with sex. I'd been to countless doctors who treated my condition (unsuccessfully) with the traditional methods of using steroid ointments and hormonal creams. Dr. Newman was the only doctor willing to work with me on new, drug-free, cutting edge treatments to treat my condition. I've had a total of 3 stem cell treatments over the past 9 months. After my first treatment, I experienced immediate relief from the constant burning and inflammation I'd been experiencing for years. Each successive treatment gave me even more relief from my symptoms. Now, most days I have no symptoms at all. On the days when I do have symptoms, they are very mild. I've been able to stop using the steroids and estrogen creams that I had been taking for over 6 1/2 years. Aside from the treatment Dr. Newman provided, the personal care and attention I've received from him and his staff has been exceptional. I've received numerous phone calls from Dr. Newman following up on my condition and offering advice on my treatment. His staff makes me feel welcome and I know I'm not "just a patient" to them. Dr. Newman's team is professional, warm and helpful. They are quick to reply to my emails, questions and calls. I no longer view the staff as Dr. Newman's - they've all become part of my recovery team. I travel over 2,300 miles for Dr. Newman's care and treatments and I can't say enough in appreciation for him. He is a fantastic doctor and person. Dr. Newman has improved my quality of life immensely! T.T.
I work in a hospital and know what it means to have good patient care, as well as, customer service. You and your entire staff have blown my expectations out of the water. From the moment I spoke with my care coordinator, I was impressed with her personal and professional manner. She even went as far as helping me make travel arrangements. The same tone continued with my office visit. From the front desk to the nursing staff, there wasn't one person who wasn't helpful, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to make me feel comfortable. Dr. Newman knew how nervous I was and walked me through every detail of the procedure and really made me feel at ease. Thank you for making my difficult situation a positive and healing experience. Sincerely, K.E.
I have been a member of this group for nearly a year and am grateful to all the members who share their experiences. I was diagnosed with vulvar and anal lichen sclerosus in July 2011. I have followed advice from several members and had varying degrees of success with many of their suggestions. Clobetasol was a nightmare, dietary changes helped some, supplements also provided some relief but the miracle for me started 1 week ago when I received my first stem cell treatment from Dr. Newman. Within 24 hours I could see tissue repairing. After 1 week I have had more improvement than I had in a year of trying various ways of managing this disease. I have no doubt our bodies are capable of repairing themselves and am amazed in my case how quickly this process is unfolding. I cannot recommend Dr. Newman and his staff highly enough. Not only is the treatment cutting edge but every person I came into contact with in his office is exceptional. My experience to date is nothing short of miraculous. K.B.
Thank you for doing such an excellent job during my last procedure. Your entire staff was amazing. The nurse, technician and office staff all went over and beyond the call of duty to insure that I was attended to in the upmost professional and caring manner. Even after I left your office, the follow up calls were consistently thoughtful and caring. I am sure that all your patients leave your office confident that their needs were met in a thoughtful and kind way. Sincerely and with much appreciation, P.L.
I am very excited to report for my second week after the stem cell Lift to Lichen Sclerosus that I have had very minimal itching / irritation. For about the last five days I have had the minimal itching at the previous spots that were my worst locations for the itching. Rarely am I using any kind of creams nor am I doing any sitz baths!!!!! I have color again and the bumps that I asked you about last week have all but disappeared. Over all I am feeling so much better and really feel like I am getting my grove back!!!!!! Cannot thank you and your staff enough!!!! -- Regards, J.B.
"My experience with Dr. Moye and his staff was wonderful. My surgery went great without any complications. I went to Dr. Moye to inquire about a tummy tuck, because my self-confidence about my appearance due to my sagging tummy was low. I am no longer ashamed of my body, now I feel like I can wear anything I want and feel confident doing so. I am looking forward to more enhancements, since my experience was successful in what I wanted to obtain." F.S.
"I enjoyed the surgical center experience and the wonderful, comfortable and personal attention given by Dr. Moye and his staff." E.W.
"I really enjoyed the privacy of the ambulatory surgery center." L.M.
"Dr. Moye and staff are wonderful and I am already planning my next surgery." P.M.
"I am an RN who needed a browlift/ eyelid reduction. After researching many doctors for the procedure, I chose Dr. Moye. He stood above the others. I am glad I did. The results were worth it." A.G.
"When I arrived at Dr. Moye's office, I really had no idea what to expect. I was immediately reassured by the relaxing atmosphere of the waiting room. The ambience was posh. When I met the staff, I felt as though I had known them for years. Their motto is "service." I suspect that this philosophy starts with Dr. Moye and flows into all of the staff. I began to enjoy my visits to his office very much. He and his staff instilled hope for a better tomorrow. They all understood my journey with breast cancer that brought me there, and became my cheerleaders. I got much more than surgery from the experience! I got renewal of the spirit, and love. Perhaps the breast cancer was a blessing, for it brought Dr. Moye and his staff into my life." M.K.
"Albany Regional Plastic Surgery is the BEST! I went to Dr. Moye for a consultation and discussion of having breast reconstruction. At a time when I was confused and scared, Dr. Moye and his staff made me feel informed and hopeful. After undergoing breast reconstruction at Albany Regional Plastic Surgery, I must say that I have been very pleased with my results and the entire surgery experience was better that I could have imagined. It was really good to have the surgery and recovery in his onsite facility, which reduced a lot of anxiety. Albany Regional Plastic Surgery, "Thank You" for taking such great care of me…" Y.J.
"Thank you for helping me to reclaim my body image and for helping me remember what my body looked like before cancer. I am so thrilled with the results of my surgeries! I can't wait to loose those last extra pounds and get back where I was. It just took a little help from "my friend"." G.
"What amazing angels you all are! Thank you for your kindness and concern for me! Stacey I love you! Your encouragement and expertise gave my husband and I so much confidence! Heather you are the best! Thank you for your kindness and care! Carrie, you let me fall apart all over you and were so kind and reassuring! I pray God richly blesses all of you as you have been such blessings to me. I will be faithful in praying for you and your families and I know God will bless you all because you deeply care for so many!" K. and C.
"I just wanted to let you know my gratitude and appreciation. I have looked at your work for many years and seen the quality and love that you put into it. When I first saw your picture I know you were the one for me. Your kind and gentle soul has overwhelmed me. I love my eyes! I look into the mirror every day and just cry (from happiness). I was having a really hard time turning 50, I think more than people know. You have made it easier for me and I am forever grateful. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart!" T.
"I really appreciate your honesty and compassion! You are such a special woman and doctor! I left thinking so many positive things! I also thought how blessed I am to have made a new friend!." S.
"I wanted to take a moment to thank you for touching my life. From the moment I met you I felt in my soul that you cared about me. Even in your most honest moments I felt your sincerity. I don’t know if you realize how special that makes you, but I do! Whether at 150 pounds or 220 there was no judgment or criticism, just love and support. You always make me feel beautiful. You have changed my life with your magical blessed hands and have done it in the spirit of love, not money or notoriety. For that, all I can say is thank you! With love and blessings." T.
"I cannot thank you enough for your care. I feel wonderful! I knew the surgery would be major for my physical comfort but I had no idea how great I would feel emotionally. Thank you, thank you, and thank you!" J.
"Dr. Huffaker, My story is a very personal story that I am sure a lot of women can relate to. I had multiple C sections deliveries and over time felt less and less comfortable with my body. It got to the point where I would only undress in the dark and removed mirrors from my bedroom. After much deliberation I decided on a Tummy Tuck. I was referred to Dr Huffaker and was immediately comfortable with him. We spoke about me not just my body. He was interested in me as a person not just as a patient. I scheduled the Tummy Tuck and what a difference it made, not just in my body but in my mental state. It was one of the best decisions I ever made. I liked the way I looked again. A few years later, after a stressful period in my life, I decided to act upon a thought I always kept tucked away in the back of my mind. I decided to have breast augmentation surgery. I was always a small breasted woman and there was what I considered a significant difference in the size of my breasts, after years of nursing. Again, I went to Dr. Huffaker. I was very specific about what I wanted and he listened to me. I didn't want everyone to look at me after surgery and just see "boobs," I wanted a very natural look and size. I remember the morning of my surgery I asked him if he remembered what I wanted and he said yes he had my pictures I referred to for my "AFTER" look. He reassured me he knew what I wanted and would not let me down. HE GOT IT PERFECT! For once in my life I can honestly say I am comfortable with myself. For me, plastic surgery was the way to rebuild by self esteem and confidence."
"Dr. Prada, I was very pleased, with my experience with Dr. Prada; he was easy to talk to and made my surgery experience very comfortable. The pre op consultation was done several weeks before surgery. We talked about the type of surgery how it was going to be performed and what would be best for my situation. He answered all of my questions and gave me his recommendations. On the day of surgery he made me feel at ease and was very professional. He explained what was going to happen and how he was going to operate. He also explained the recovery process in detail. His operating staff, the anesthesiologist and recovery nurses were all very nice and accommodating. It has been approximately 3 months since surgery and I am very pleased with the results. I would utilize Dr. Prada in the future if I had anything else I wanted done, and I would recommend him to anyone that was contemplating cosmetic surgery. Overall the St. Louis Cosmetic Surgery and Dr. Prada have more than full filled my expectations."
"Dr. Prada, Having breast augmentation surgery is something I should have done earlier in my life. I have always had a small chest which didn't get better after two children. For many years I struggled to find A or AA bras that fit, and even then seemed to still be empty. After a couple of years of dealing with a divorce and my mom getting diagnosed with cancer, I finally made the decision. I wanted to do this for myself and it was something I have always thought about. After meeting Dr. Prada I had an immediate confidence and trust in him. He helped me decide what size would be best for my active lifestyle and fit my body proportions. The surgery went smoothly and six weeks later I was on the beach in Hawaii. The recovery was quick and I was back to work in 6 days. I am so happy with the results and my decision. I love bra shopping and wearing clothes that I never could before. I feel like this is the way I always should have been."
"Dr. Huffaker, I just wanted you to know that I ran my first half marathon today. I finished in 2:34. Today would have never been possible if I had not had my tummy tuck in December. It has been four months, and I feel like I can do all of the things I had put off "until". My boot camp girlfriends were wonderful in helping me try longer distances. I have been running with them on their shorter run days and I've felt great. I took the number and place of a friend who suffered an injury and I actually ran all but two blocks of the run-(love those water stops). The crowd and excitement of the day got me out of mile nine and into thirteen before I knew it! My girlfriend ran the whole way with me, so I had a great coach. (She's registered for the Iron Man Triathlaton this year!) I surprised everyone by running the whole thing. I surprised myself. I have no excuses or issues keeping me from trying new things and achieving new goals. I'm thrilled and so thankful to you for helping me reclaim myself. My girlfriend took this picture from her I phone today." B.
"Dr. White, I just want to tell you how much I appreciate you making my surgery possible. The results were even better than I expected. I am a very happy patient. Thanks Again!"
"Dr. Prada, I attended one of your seminars for breast augmentation and knew you were the doctor for me. You explained everything so well and answered everyone's questions. Then I had my surgery-wow! I had no idea how happy I would be with my new look. Thank You!"
"Dr. Huffaker, I have indeed enjoyed "Royal Treatment" by you and your staff. You do such beautiful work! Thank you all for everything you've done to make this experience so nice for me. Dr. Huffaker, I would especially like to thank you for helping me feel so beautiful!"
"Dr. Lund, I would like to take the time to thank all of you for my experience at your facility. There are a great number of questions, fears and emotions involved in any elective surgery. The staff at St. Louis Cosmetic Surgery made every effort to assuage my fears and make me feel perfectly comfortable about our choice of clinics. Most importantly, was the outcome of the surgery, which could not have produced better results, both cosmetically and length of convalescence (which was surprisingly brief). For this I would like to commend Dr. Lund for his fine work and attention to detail. Thank you! Lastly, I would like you to know that I hold your facility in the highest regard and have recommended it highly and will continue to do so."
"Dr. Prada, I wanted to drop you a note to let you know how greatful I am for what you did for me! I now look in the mirror and see the person I always wanted to be. Thank you Dr. Prada and your staff for taking such great care of me."
"Dr. White, Thank you so much for the honest opinion/good advice. I see why you have such a great reputation. For now at least I intend to enjoy my blessings and looks. When my glass starts looking more half empty than half full I'll come back and see you!"
"Dr. Huffaker, Thank you for the wonderful job you've done. I'm so proud of the way I look. I'd recommend you to anybody! Thanks!"
"Dr. Lund, Everyday when I look in the mirror it's hard to grasp that the reflection is me! Count me in as the newest member of your fan club! I expected good results from liposuction but what I got was unbelievable and fantastic! You are a very skilled surgeon and a very precise one. Thanks again!"
"Dr. White, I just wanted to let you know that some of your work has recently graced the pages of Playboy's Special Edition Magazine. I feel as though I need your business cards to pass out because I have SO many women asking who the awesome artist was. I have one girlfriend who has already gotten her surgery done with you and she could not be happier as well as another coming to see you this August! You are an amazing surgeon!"
"Dr. Prada, I just wanted to say how impressed I was with your facility and staff on my new patient consult on Tuesday. I was referred by a friend who has had the same day lift procedure. Based on just the initial visit alone, I would recommend your office and you to anyone considering cosmetic surgery. Everyone expressed such a genuine interest in making me look and feel better!!! Thanks Again!!!"
"When I was a little girl, I liked candy Necklaces; when I was a teenager, I used to neck in the car; when I was grownup, I wore gold necklaces; as I get much older, my neck dropped. I lost 100 Ibs and my neck committed suicide. Today, after my neck has undergone a fabulous neck life - I am sooooo happy! TALK ABOUT A FACE LIFT!
"Thank you. I love my breasts! ...I love you to Dr. Jackson!"
"Thank you! I can wear a swim suite now!"
"Thank you Dr. Jackson, you have changed my life - I can buy sweaters now! God Bless."
"You're amazing, thank you Dr. Jackson!"
"I love them, my husband loves them, my friends are all envious - my breasts are brilliant. Thanks a Million"
Thank you Dr. Jackson, You have given my wife her life back. We never dreamed breast reconstruction could be this good. More than that, you are a kind man - it was easy to trust you.
Dear Dr. Jackson, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I look wonderful, 2 dance better - I feel sooo good. I am amazed. S
"My experience could not have been more pleasant and comfortable. Excellent surgeon and staff without exception."
"My mom was with me through every visit (until now) and everyone answered all her questions and were very helpful (she worries) and she was thrilled with Dr. Verbin and staff. Thanks!"
"The Anesthesiologist was very good. She did research for my allergies and gave me no side effects and minimal pain following. Beyond expectations!"
"My experience was wonderful. I was very scared prior to surgery, which was a waste of my time because I found myself in extremely capable hands. The entire staff is great!!!"
"From the beginning of the first appointment, to surgery, and even post op, all the staff treated me exceptionally well. I always feel comfortable and not afraid to ask questions. Everyone was wonderful and made the day of surgery so stress free with their enthusiasm and loving, warm natures."
"Dr. Verbin even called on Saturday to make sure that I was feeling OK."
"Everyone has made this experience even more comfortable for me. I was so nervous but this staff was remarkably nice and courteous. I would recommend anyone to have their procedures here in you office. Thank you all so much!!"
"I don't think you could get a better staff!! Everyone here is so kind and pleasant. It doesn’t get any better than this. Thank you so much!"
"Everyone from the receptionist, to the nurses, to Dr. Verbin was very helpful and caring. This special attentiveness took away any apprehension or nervousness I had about the surgery. I was 100% secure and I knew I was in good hands!! I tell everyone how amazing my experience was!"
"I am completely satisfied with the service I have received at Dr. Verbin's office. I love the results of the procedure. Dr. Verbin has captured exactly what I had in mind and the outcome is just how I wanted. Thank you!"
"I am extremely happy with my results. I get many compliments on my appearance. I want to thank you Dr. Verbin for being a perfectionist and I think one of the best in your field…you and your staff take all precautions, are professional, personable, and just plain awesome. Thank you so much for getting me back to feeling and looking like myself again! You really are the best!"
"Thank you so much for giving me back what time took away. I smile in the mirror and see me again!" L.S.
"thank you for the care and attention you gave to my recent facial plastic surgery procedures. Having often said "I would never have plastic surgery," I have had to eat my words. Never say never! Having had the surgeries Friday, May 18, 2007, I returned to work the following Monday with very little discomfort other than the procedure you did on my neck. Of course I iced my face, eyes and neck 24 hours a day from Friday afternoon thru Monday morning. There was minimal bruising and swelling in just 2 ½ days with minimal pain. I feel privileged to have found you for my facial surgery procedures. I value your expertise, talent and skill. I am delighted with the results. Now I am not the one who looks tired and haggard, being married to a man 13 years my junior, he is. Of course he never gets enough rest either. The Obagi skin care program you put me on after my facial surgery, to repair badly damaged skin, is coming along fine. I am delighted that so many of the dark sun spots are disappearing in just a month. My skin has a more uniform color to it and some of the small wrinkles are diminishing. I can’t wait to see the results six months from now! I would not hesitate to refer any of my friends or social contacts to you. In fact I have given several people your business card, including one of my doctors who commented about what good surgery results I had." S.F.
"I love, love, love my new nose. It is by far the best thing that I (and you, haha) have ever done in my life. That is the only thing I wasn't happy with and now I feel perfect!" T.S.
"I am very pleased with my Simoni lift, it was such an easy procedure, and the results are great. I am a cancer survivor, and so many people come up to me and ask how I am doing and tell me I look amazing. They have no idea I had the lift." C.F.
"Thank you so much for your expert professional service. And...making me look 10 years younger." P.S.
"Thank you so much for my beautiful nose! and most importantly for my new found confidence." E.S.
"Thank you so much for helping to make "10 Years Younger" a great show! All of our participants had incredible transformations because of your generosity. It was truly a pleasure to work with you and your staff."
"A current happy patient of Dr Simoni's surgery-less rhinoplasty. Thank you so very much for your talent, you have masked the deformity of this girls nose greatly making life livable again, thank you immensely." T.b.
"Words can not express how grateful I am for the beautiful job you did on my nose. You made this process that I feared so much smoother and easier than I could ever imagine. I have received so many complements and praises for your work and have been referring you to everyone I talk to about my nose. I have you to thank for my newly found confidence and delight when I look in the mirror." N.K.
"I would like to thank you and your staff for making my rhino a pain and stress free process. I knew my entire life I was going to have a nose job but it had to be with a perfect Dr. that Dr. was you. You are truely a master of your practice." R.M.
"Thank you so much for all you have done for me! You are an amazing doctor and I will continue to send you anyone in the search of a great doctor to you." G.R.
"While waiting to go in for my procedure, I could not help but notice the collection of thank you notes from satisfied patients. Well consider me one more! Any worries or concerns I had about my rhinoplasty were shattered as soon as I woke up from anesthesia. I was treated with the outmost care and concern throughout this process, and I am thrilled with my results. My breathing troubles have been significantly decreased, and I am so proud of my profile!" S.B.
"I had my nose and chin done by Dr. Simoni when he was in New York almost 5 years ago. Not only have I been so happy with the work he has done for me, nobody can even tell I have had any work done. I would travel to use this brilliant doctor again and am so thankful for the beauty he has given to me. Thank you!" A.K.
"First off I had a wonderful experience with Dr.Simoni and his amazing staff. I love the rhinoplasty results! I am so pleased with the artistic detailing of my new nose. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is not happy with their nose and are looking for a good surgeon to make the changes they want to see." C.G.
"A professional, warm, and courteous office staff took care of all the details and a lot of the worry. Jennifer and Silvia were wonderful, and I felt more than comfortable in their hands. Dr. Simoni is a skilled surgeon, and the entire process was quick and relatively painless. I never would have believed a procedure of this difficulty could be handled with such precision and attention. I highly recommend Dr. Simoni and his wonderful staff to anyone with apprehensions about the field of cosmetic surgery. An exceptional experience, from start to finish." T.S.
"Like anyone, I had some doubts about rhinoplasty. It was something I always wanted to do, but the results I wanted to achieve were so minor I questioned whether or not a procedure was even necessary. Ultimately, I took the plunge and the small corrections to my nose made such an impressive difference, I wish I'd done it years earlier." B.S.
"I've never thought my nose fit me, the shape seemed fine enough just too big for a girl. For 6 years I've known I wanted to get the size of it reduced surgically. I'm so glad I stumbled across Dr. Simoni. Since day one I've felt so comfortable and so well taken care of by all of you. My surgery and recovery was so easy and actually painless! Slightly uncomfortable and stiff but no pain (unless I bumped my nose by accident haha). It's been ten days since my surgery and me and my friends went out tonight for the first time since and took pictures, and when I saw my face in them I wanted to cry tears of joy. I finally looked like the person I felt like on the inside. I loved how I looked! In every picture, every angle my nose is ADORABLE. The change is sooo subtle but makes the world of difference to me (and that's the only person it needed to). I can already tell I'm going to love the result after all of the healing is done. A mere thank you doesn't even begin to cover it, I feel so blessed to have found you." E.D.
"Thank you for the most incredible experience dealing with your office, from start-to finish. I could not rave about Silvia more. She was the person who introduced me to the Simoni office, took the time and patience to explain the operation , answer questions and make me feel comfortable with having a procedure with you. I know you realize what a valuable asset she is to your practice. I would be remiss if I also did not mention Jennifer Tinelli who provided exceptional customer service in person and on the phone when I had medical questions or concerns. She has the perfect personality for the job by successfully putting a patient's mind at ease with her confident, competent and knowledgeable handling of issues for them. And then I want to extend my appreciation for Maria Armstrong and Alexandra Davidson, for their congenial manner. They went out of their way on several occasions to welcome me, ensure I was satisfied customer and that all my needs were met. Your entire staff is extraordinary in that they seem to enjoy their work. , and are dedicated to professional excellence and providing supreme customer service to all who walk through your door. I want to convey a heartfelt thanks to every one at Simoni Plastic Surgery center and of course more importantly to you, Dr Simoni, for the wonderful job you did to fulfill my wishes of facial makeover that looks so natural no one is aware. Congratulation on the job well done and surrounding yourself with people who make you shine." R.S.

"Words can not describe how happy and grateful I am to have met you. I didn't think I was going to have straight nose again-and you made it possible! The results were beyond my my expectations. Because of you, my confidence was restored and I don't feel like I have to hide anymore. You are the best of the best!" A.T.
"I absolutely love my new nose! I haven't had any pain or felt any discomfort at all. Almost all the swelling is gone. I would like to thank Dr. Simoni and the staff so much for the good care I received at the clinic and for the beautiful result! I'm so happy! I miss LA, and hope to go back soon!" H.F.
"I am so impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise that your office demonstrated throughout this whole process. I researched doctors for two years because I was so concerned about what might go wrong. I interviewed several doctors and I was immediately impressed with your office. Unlike other doctors, you took a very individualized approach and addresses all my questions and concerns. Your staff was amazing. At no point did I feel scared or hesitant about the procedure. Your staff was professional and compassionate. The morning of my surgery, they greeted me with a smile and treated me as though I was their only patient. As for the result, again amazing! you truly an artist Dr Simoni. I am so happy with the results. My nose and chin look perfect for my face the results were perfectly tailored for my face. My orthodontist was so impressed with the result that her daughter contacted you to do rhinoplasty on her nose." M.B.
"Thank you for everything you have done for me. you are an amazing surgeon, and you have enhanced my life with your skills. Thank you a million times." A.
Breast Reduction Hi my name is Donna and in 2004 I had a car accident that left me with herniated discs in my lower back and neck along with other injuries. After extensive procedures on my back and neck, my doctors informed me that breast reduction surgery would also help reduce the stress and strain on my back and neck. My husband had been treated by Dr. Rabinowitz for a broken hand and suggested I see Dr. Rabinowitz, I had my first appointment with Dr Rabinowitz late fall 2006, at that time my breast had enlarged to a DD along with some added weight from steroid treatments on my back. Dr. Rabinowitz recommended I wait until my weight was reduced to my normal weight for the surgery to be done. I also visited two other well-known plastic surgeons for opinions on my situation. I decided on Dr. Rabinowitz as my surgeon as he was the most sincere, kind, gentle and understanding of the doctors, his reputation and photos of past procedures were also outstanding. I returned to Dr Rabinowitz in early January and told him of my decision to proceed. Dr Rabinowitz sent all the necessary reports and information to my health insurance for the procedure to be covered medically, after an appeal filed by Dr. Rabinowitz and myself the insurance company approved the procedure. The date was set for June 21st; my weight had reduced from 138 lbs to my normal 115 lbs, which also left me with very stretched skin and very oversized breasts. Dr. Rabinowitz performed the procedure along with a tummy tuck and hernia repair. The results are outstanding; his surgical work along with his professional and personal attention could not be matched. His office staff is the best I have ever worked with they made everything work so smooth and easy from scheduling to insurance filing. My before and after photos are on the web site and you can see for yourself that my results look fantastic, everything is perky and back where it belongs. The scaring is very minimal, I am down to a size C and they look magnificent on my 115lb 5 ft frame, I have not felt this great about my breasts nor been this size since I was 17 years old. I sincerely thank Dr. Rabinowitz and his staff for every thing they have done for me and making this a very comfortable experience.
Dr. Rabinowitz, On our journey through life we sometimes get to share the path with someone extraordinary. What you do makes such a difference in peoples lives - who you are makes it all the more special. From the bottom of our most grateful hearts - thank you. R. & M.A.
Dear Dr. Rabinowitz, Just a thank you for all you did in helping to heal me! There should be more doctors like you who have their heart in their profession and your kindness with their patients, as you have. You, as well as your wonderful staff, have made my difficult healing moments easier to deal with and even made me laugh along the way. Thanks for being such a wonderful doctor, and a fine example of the true meaning of the word. Thank you, with all my deepest appreciation, always, I.
Dear Dr. Rabinowitz, Thank you so much for caring for me as a patient. I'm very thankful for your generosity and concern and selflessness. Dr. Magee's recommendation was certainly warranted! It is obvious, too, that your staff is treated with the same kindness and professionalism; they are happy to work for you. So, again, thank you! Sincerely, E.
"Adrienne does a great job coloring my hair! Always get lots of compliments! Love the salon" N.J.
"I had a tummy tuck and breast lift by Dr. Sholar. I am so happy and love my results. She is an awesome surgeon." S.R.
"I had the best experience a person could possibly have at Scholar Center. I had a breast reduction surgery and I was scared to death when I went for my first appointment. They soon had me feeling really relaxed and I could not have been in better hands. My surgery went off with no complications and the one on one attention couldnt be beat. The whole package the vitamens the great advice all made me recover in remarkable time. Im so glad I went there and so glad to have had them there to support me." A.B.
"I had scheduled a face lift for Nov. 09..in Sept I had a bicycle wreck and landed mainly on my face..needless to say the surgery had to be cancelled. Immediately upon leaving the hospital I went to Dr. Sholar's office. I was treated immediately. I cannot express how much kindness was shown to me, not only from Dr. Sholar, but from everyone in her office. I had the face lift in Jan. and have been very pleased with the results. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to everyone.Thank you Dr. Sholar and staff. I could make this testimonial longer it doesn't begin to cover everything. Thanks again" V.L.
"Over two years ago, I had several proceedures done at another clinic. Dr. Sholar was not available at the time, so others did my work. Just recently my husband started going to Sholar & told me I needed to go see her. I had an incision that never healed properly & other areas that needed to be corrected. So I went in for a consult & after speaking with her, I could hardly wait to start! She is so confident & was sincere about helping me look great! Well, here I am----totally satisfied with her Excellent skills, the very comforting & friendly staff. Dr. Sholar has been a big part in me getting my body back to how it was 20 years ago! I would refer & encourage anyone to visit them & see where they can help you become a more confident & beautiful person! Thank you Dr. Sholar & staff!! Oh, the post op deep massages are too great for words! I'm looking forward to a long relationship with Sholar center." B.
"Dr. Sholar did my breast aug and it was the best decision i ever made! She did an amazing job and i am sooo happy with them! The staff is very helpful as well, made me feel very comfortable and explained everything i asked. I love you guys! Thank you so much. Youve changed my life"
"The Sholar center is wonderful! I had my first microdermabrasion by Jamie a couple of weeks ago and it made my skin feel amazing! I can't wait to have my next one at the end of the month! I have recommended the Sholar Center to my friends as the place to go if you want beautiful skin!!" N.
"Looking back, 42 years was really to long to wait to remedy a problem that's bothered me all of my adult life. When I finally decided to act I researched surgeons on the web. I knew right away that Dr. Sholar was the one for me. From the moment I walked into her beautiful facility I felt warmly welcomed by the receptionist, nurses, office staff, and of course Alina too. It was as though she and Marc held my hands through the whole process. On the hday of my breast aug, I was so excited, not nervous at all! Alina and Marc were just as excited as I was before and after my surgery. The follow ups have been a pleasure. I recommend that anyone considering this surgery not put it off any longer. Waiting too long has been my only regret" D.
"I have to say I love going to Dr. Sholar. Everyone there treats you like a friend. I so injoy trying new products. I would recommend anyone who is thinking of having any rejuvenation procedure or surgery to talk to Dr Sholar and her staff. I am sure you would be as pleased as I am!" L.S.
"After many consults with other physicians, Dr. Sholar really made me feel the most comfortable and confident in my choice. She listened to what I wanted and I am pretty positive I couldn't of had a better surgeon. She did such a great job on my breast augmentation and kept to her word that she is a perfectionist and would make me look still proportional. They staff is very nice and willing to answer any questions and deliver helpful advice." K.B.
"Before I had my (FFS)Facial Surgery in Oct, 2011 from Dr. Sholar, I searched the web for websites that would give me the information I needed. The Sholar Center web site gave me the most comprehensive and detailed descriptions for their services I found across the U.S. and the globe for that matter. The web pages were beautifully presented and I was impressed by their professionalism. That is one of the main reasons that influenced my decision to see Dr. Alina Sholar about my surgery. Meeting Dr. Sholar and her staff for my consultation gave me the confidence to have my surgery. I have been extremely gratified with the results which have really rejuvenated my life. Dr Alina is my fairey godmother blessing me with a fantasy that became my reality." J.S.
"After much consideration, I finally made the decision to consult a physician to perform a breast lift with a little additional volume. After asking around, Dr. Sholar came highly recommended. After meeting her and her staff, I knew that this would be the facility that I would allow to perform my surgery. From day one to now (followup visits) every visit, consultation, surgery day and recovery was amazing. I love Dr. Sholar and her entire staff. I could not have asked for a better group of women to be associated with. A personal thanks to Alina Sholar, Marc, and Shawn and the hospital staff at St. Mary's Surgery Care. The thank you note from St. Mary's was very sweet." T.J.
"I LOVE DR. SHOLAR!!! As a result of getting my ears pierced, I suffered from huge keliods on the back of both of my ears. Before meeting Dr. Sholar. I had previously had two correction surgeries by a different doctor. Which only made them grow back larger and more painful. They were so large and painful that I couldn't lay my head or neck on a pillow at night. Another doctor referred me to Dr. Sholar and I had a consultation. From that moment on I trusted her and knew that she would be able to help me. She had a plan right from the start, and was one of the most confident doctors I had ever met! She went ahead and performed the removal surgery. Keliods usually reform and re occur within 7 months after surgery. Well it has now almost been three years, and my ears look great! No reoccurrence at all! I had not been able to wear a ponytail for six years and I can now! I would highly recommend the Sholar Center for any procedure they offer that you are contemplating. I love Dr. Sholar and her friendly staff!" J.T.
"I have not yet had my procedures yet, but I can say that Dr. Sheila Bond is great at listening to prospective patients' concerns and that she makes you feel comfortable enough to leave her office with ALL questions answered. Her staff is great and I even got to speak to a former patient, (her secretary) who had great results. Thanks Dr. Sheila Bond."
"Doctor Bond made me feel very comfortable from the beginning to the end of the procedure. I was very please with my liposuction results so much that I am scheduling Doctor Bond to do tummy tuck and a leg lift on me. She's the Best!" P.
"Dr. Sheila Bond was great to work with! She was personable, thoughtful, and paid tremendous attention to detail. Her staff are also very friendly and helpful throughout my interactions with her office. I highly recommend her practice." S.
"I had a mastectomy 7 years ago and Dr. Sheila Bond had done the reconstruction. She was absolutely wonderful, caring and delightful, and had the best bedside manner. I have had surgeries since, but none have been as perfectly neat and beautifully done as the what Dr. Sheila Bond had done for me. The scar is a very fine, faint line. I still get complements from doctors and medical staff whenever I have to do a breast exam. Thanks, Dr. Sheila Bond! To this day, I still recommend you highly to any one who wants or needs plastic surgery." D.
"I had breast reduction surgery and lipo-suction and I could not be more pleased. Dr Bond and her staff are very professional from the first visit to post surgery follow up visits. I am extremely impressed with this fantastic surgeon and her work. She takes the time to explain the procedures and expected outcomes in length. I am very happy I went to Dr Bond and would be happy to refer her to anyone. I have already referred her to my mother and two friends." A.V.A.
"I had breast reduction surgery and have been very pleased with the results. The follow-up care gives me peace of mind that the healing process is going as expected and she really takes the time to explain any and all issues concerning my surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Sheila Bond to friends, family and strangers." L.
"Dr. Sheila Bond and her helpful staff the best! They all did so much to help me, and made sure that I was comfortable at all times. Dr. Sheila Bond listened to me, and I was confused with which size I wanted during my first consultation but she and her staff worked with me until we chose the size that fit me perfectly. I had 100% confidence in her and my breasts look AMAZING!! I had NO PAIN and three months later I couldn't be happier. Dr. Sheila Bond made this procedure super easy and she is an EXPERT in her craft. If I had to do it all over again, I would do it in a heartbeat." B.
"Your personable demeanor and surgical skills are an awesome combination. Thank you for the smile on my face when I look at my “natural” self in the mirror. Dr. Sheila Bond, you are my hero and you’re fabulous!!!" M.M.
"Dr. Sheila Bond has the ability to make you feel very relaxed and comfortable. I was very happy with my initial results and look forward to my final results. When I look in the mirror I feel confident . The staff is professional and friendly. My experience was great and I would and do highly recommend Dr. Sheila Bond and her staff to everyone." D.D.
"Looking in the mirror, as we ladies often do, we all feel that we're holding up pretty well until that one day when we notice our eyes in a recent photo and ask, "Where did those BAGS come from?" Impossible as it seems, it had at last happened to me, the beginnings of the dreaded undereye bags. Working in the office, I knew that Dr. Sheila Bond injected Restylane into the "tear troughs" to fill the indented areas and virtually disguise the "bags". She also mentioned that most patients "don't feel a thing". As most patients know, I'm no stranger to Restylane, which I profess to being one of 2 my best friends (the other is Dysport). While I refuse to flinch at the needle insertion in my nasolabials and marionette lines (it's REALLY not that bad!), but the idea of that needle so close to the eyes was truly creeping me out. But given the choice between keeping the undereye "bags" and getting needles stuck in them, vanity, of course, won out and there I was in the chair, Emla in my orbits and palms perspiring. I closed my eyes and felt some pressure, the tiniest pinch and in a few minutes, it was over. Initially, I had a bit of redness and what looked like a case of undereye measles (the filler is injected in small bumps that will shortly soften and blend together to fill the indented areas). By the next day, I could barely see where the bumps had been, everything had smoothed out, but remained raised enough to camouflage those nasty bags. Best of all, the procedure used very little filler, leaving some for perfecting other little areas of woe. Amazing!" J.A.
"When I met Dr. Sessions, I knew he was the right surgeon for me. I can personally attest to his talented and precise surgical ability. I had previously undergone two breast augmentations by other plastic surgeons; unfortunately, I was still dissatisfied with the appearance of my breasts. I confided in Dr. Sessions, knowing he would give me an honest opinion as well as giving me full natural looking breasts that I desired. After listening to my concerns and examining me, Dr. Sessions explained what he felt should be done to achieve the result I was seeking. I trusted Dr. Sessions completely and finally I have the result I had hoped for." R.M.
"I had consulted with two other plastic surgeons before meeting with you. The thing that impressed me the most was the time you took to explain all my options and how the two of us together arrived at a decision that was right for me..." H.C.
"My husband decided to have cosmetic surgery and I thought he was out of his mind. I went along with him to his consult where we met Dr. Sessions. I left the office feeling so confident in his skill and enjoyed his personality so much, a few months after my husbands surgery I decided to have a procedure done. Even though I was a nervous wreck, Dr. Sessions put my mind at ease. I actually enjoyed the time with him and his staff. They are very warm and caring and I knew I was in good hands. Several months later, I am so grateful for meeting him because he has truly changed the way I feel about myself. I used to think cosmetic surgery was out of the question. It's one of the best things I have ever done for myself! I am so pleased with the results and would do it all over again in a heartbeat." M.S.
"I was looking for a Board Certified, experienced plastic surgeon that specialized in abdominoplasty (tummy tucks). After several meetings with Dr. Sessions, I was impressed with his meticulous technical skills and aesthetic judgement. He became my final choice. My result was BEAUTIFUL. My abdomen is firm, flat and my scar is thin and fading. I made an excellent choice, the right choice. Dr. Sessions and his caring and knowledgeable staff were there to answer every detailed question before and after my surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Sessions and his staff to anyone considering plastic surgery." J.S.
"Wishing a very merry Christmas to the wonderful people, like all of you, who made this year so great. Also for being so kind and thoughtful as I did something good for me." K.M.
"Thanks again for giving me the “uplifting” I have wanted for so long." N.P.
"Just wanted to say “thanks” for everything you guys have done for me. You made me feel comfortable before and after my tummy tuck! I love it! I am so happy how everything turned out! (And my husband loves it)." C.L.
"I selected Dr. Sessions for corrective surgery after consulting with several doctors concerning my nose. I liked the fact that the entire process was very consultative. He asked me what result I wanted, then let me know what should and should not be done specifically with a male nose and my face. His knowledge and treatment of my individual case made me feel very comfortable with my decision. The results are terrific! I wish I had known of Dr. Sessions years ago." J.S.
"I wanted to thank each and everyone of your for the considerate and professional treatment you showed me. You are a wonderful group and I would highly recommend you to my friends and family." V.R.
"Dr. Bayati and staff were very helpful and accommodating during my laser procedure for spider veins. As a nurse I’ve worked with many physicians, and she has a wonderful bedside manner." H.J.
"I appreciated your kindness caring and professionalism which was extended to me during my recent surgery. You did such a wonderful job. I can’t even see the scar. All the staff put me at ease at a time when I was a little anxious. Thank you all again for being so great!" D.R
"I can’t thank you enough. You have changed my life. I have hated my legs for as long as I can remember and now after my liposuction I actually enjoy shopping for pants. The pre and post op was very intuitive and accommodating. The hospital stay was short and professional. The staff at the hospital made me feel so comfortable because everyone enjoys working with you. As far as your staff, they have become my friends. Thanks again to you and the staff." G.A.L.
"Since my facelift and eyelift, people are noticing the color of my eyes. My own mother said my eyes are so much greener." K.M
"Dr. Bayati and staff were great. The staff is very knowledgeable and professional. After my liposuction surgery, I was finally able to wear a red and white polka-dot bikini for the first time when my husband and I went on vacation." R.E.

"Exceptional All Around - Seattle, WA" Posted by sweetmomma in Seattle, WA I came to Dr. G with a very difficult situation. I had had 3 previously unsuccessful attempts. He thoroughly explained all of my options, with precision and grace. His staff was extremely helpful and understanding. His skills and knowlege are only surpassed by his talent as a surgeon. I am thrilled and happy with my results. I will definately be referring others to him. He is what a doctor and surgeon should be. Knowlegable, up-front, kind, talented, and reassuring. With the skills to give the best result. He is fantastic.
"Outstanding Breast Lift - Seattle, WA" Posted by BellevueErin in Seattle, WA I desperately wanted a breast lift and began searching in the Seattle/Bellevue area for the right doctor to perform this surgery. I narrowed my search to three of Seattle's best, had consultations with each of them and chose Dr. G for a variety of reasons. His staff, professionalism, certifications, knowledge and client testimonials/photos on top of him answering all of my questions (I had never had any type of surgery so I had a gazillion of them) all exceeded my expectations. B.E.
"Dr. G Comes Highly Recommended - Seattle, WA" Posted by Workout mommy in Seattle, WA Dr. G and his staff were friendly and very thorough in informing me of everything associated with my breast lift and augmentation.

"Excellent Cosmetic Results from an A-list Costmetic Surgeon - Seattle, WA" Posted by John in Issaquah, WA in Seattle, WA Dr. G is an A-list cosmetic surgeon. As a physician myself with several well known cosmetic surgeons as friends, I was able to obtain 'insider' recommendations from other A-list facial and reconstructive surgeons in other states and in Washington who are experts in the same field. My experience and post-operative results all mirrored their high pre-operative praise for Dr. G. J.
"Perfect Surgery Result! - Seattle, WA" Posted by MSM177 in Seattle, WA Dr. G took time to explain how he will best care for me. He is personable, sincere, and fully transparent. He has the best interest in mind to achive the perfect result.
"Perfect Breasts - Seattle, WA" Posted by teds mom in Seattle, WA I researched several surgeons and interviewed my friends who already had breast implants before making the big decision. I knew I wanted the surgery but was understandably nervous. A friend used Dr. G for her implants; I thought they looked great..better than others I had seen; very natural not plastic. Dr. G made sure I was informed and knweledgeable about the procedure and what to expect all the way. Additonally he worked with me on what I wanted my breasts to look like, what I thought a pretty breast was shaped like, he took the time with me and did not just assume. Long story short my breasts are amazingly beautiful and look so natural!! I have not had one regret. I highly recommend Dr G, he is thorough, diligent and precise; the results for me?... my breasts are perfect! His staff is just as awesome T.M.
"Awesome Results 2 Months Post-Op - Seattle, WA" Posted by Newtummyat41 in Seattle, WA Dr. G is very honest and professional and let's you know the realistic outcome to expect.

"Perfect Doctor, Perfect Results! - Seattle, WA" Posted by Liz in Seattle in Seattle, WA Dr. G's work speaks for itself. He did both a tummy tuck and breast reduction for me and the results are some of the best I've seen (and I've done a lot of comparisons with other women who've had similar surgeries). He took the time to explain everything to me - including setting realistic expectations as to results. I feel so blessed that I selected Dr. G as my plastic surgeon. He gave me back the body that two pregnancies took away. Actually, I look BETTER than I did before having kids. I couldn't be happier!!!! L.
"After Years of Debating Breast Augmentation, I Finally Did It! - Seattle, WA" Posted by StaceyLynn in Seattle, WA Dr. G was such a pleasure to work with. My results are fabulous. I truly believe he is one of the best cosmetic surgeons in our area. I was impressed from start to finish with him. He took the time to email, call and was always available for questions. I can't say enough as to how pleased I am with Dr. G and the experience I had with him and his office. And my results exceeded my expectations. S.L.
"As a young mother of five children my breasts has surpassed me in years as a result of my pregnancies. I contemplated a breast uplift for many years and finally this year, only after meeting with Dr. Carroll, I felt comfortable to go ahead with the operation. I instantly felt confident that he was the right man to do the procedure. Thank you Dr. Carroll, I now feel as young as I am, and my breasts look as young as they should.:)" D.Q.
"I write to say thank you for the helpful way you treated me when you did surgery on my lip last October, and subsequent to that. I appreciated your thoroughness and skill and also your availability when I had some concerns. I wish you ongoing success, health and happiness in 2008. Again my thanks for your care and attention." N.C.
"Dr.Carroll came highly recommended to me and I pass on that recommendation. The appointments I had before my reduction operation directly with him and also with the website meant I was not nervous at all on the day. I received amazing care and support before, during and after it. I still can’t believe how fantastic the results are, my quality of life improved immediately as the pain was so minimal due to the quality of the surgery and the care, my scars are so good they are barely noticeable at all! After spending my lifetime hating my breasts I now love them! If I was to have surgery again I would never consider using anyone else." O.M.
"With grateful appreciation for all your excellent work, it has truly changed my life." A.M.
"After four c-sections and a hysterectomy my abdomen was very scarred with rolls of fat that nothing would shift. Having visited and discussed my options with Mr. Sean Carroll (Plastic Surgeon), I chose to have a tummy tuck and minor lipo in the Beacon Hospital. It involved a stay of two nights and I also had to wear a binder for approximately three weeks. It was slightly uncomfortable but never very painful. I would say I was fully recovered within six weeks. I am absolutely delighted with the results. I have one long horizontal scar which is fading fast. My stomach is pre-baby perfect. I am delighted I chose to have the procedure and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Carroll to anyone." N.C.
Thank you! I appreciate your talent – the older I get the younger I look thanks to you! G.T.
Personally I think you’re a tremendous surgeon – very professional and full of knowledge. You were also very straightforward about the procedures, telling me the do’s and dont's before having surgery done. I really appreciate it. Thank you so much for everything, Dr. Mosser. C.P.
I feel much better about how I look and my friends can’t get over how much younger I look. Thank you. S.F.
A special thank you message intended to express my appreciation for all your thoughtfulness. I am very satisfied with the work and procedures that were done. I think your skill is fantastic. Thank you again C.L.
Dear Dr. Mosser, Thank you for giving me a face to smile about. I wish you a very happy holiday season. C.S.
Thanks for all you’ve done to help me reach my goal. M.C.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity and of course your skill. J.L.
You seem to be such a patient, understanding and insightful person. Thank you for sharing your time (phone & office), honest opinions and skill as a surgeon. I am pleased and feel very fortunate that I chose you. S.T.
Thank you for your patience as I struggled with THE BIG DECISION! And thank you so very much for your skill. You have managed to transform me into a 26 yr old (from the neck up!!!) I am happy & grateful. B.B.
Dear Dr. "Harmony” (a.k.a. Dr. Mosser), Thank you so much for my Radiesse treatment! Everyone tells me I look great, but no one even guessed that I had had anything done. G.S.
Thank you so much for enhancing so dramatically my image! B.S
Thank you for providing such excellent, gentle and skilled services. Seeing you is always a fun experience and I LOVE your office and your great staff. I am so happy with my results and have been receiving so many compliments. I feel like this is the best I’ve looked in years! J.L.

"Betsi, thank you for your responsive handling of all matters regarding my cosmetic surgery this year. You help to instill confidence in patients during all aspects of the cosmetic surgery experience."
"Gina, thank you again for your expertise with the questions I had. You made my visit to Dr. Miller's a relaxing experience."
"Nicole, Thank you for the patience and warmth everytime I call or come to the office. You keep Dr. Miller's practice calm and personal."
"Teresa, your professionalism and care were greatly appreciated. Thank you."
"Tracy, you put my mind at ease before surgery, thank you for your kind approach."
"Dr. Miller and his staff are very personable, they never treated me as 'just another patient'. They always take their time with me whether it is during an office visit or answering simple questions over the phone. Dr. Miller takes the time to find out what results his patients want, and is dedicated to their happiness." P.M.
"Dear Dr. Miller and Staff, Thank you for all your support and advice. It has been a very positive experience. You have a wonderful Staff. Thank you." K.S.
"Doctor Miller, I'd like to take a moment to say thank you very much for my initial consultation, for explaining in full detail the procedure of the surgery, as well as answering any and all questions that i had. Along with my reference from a friend, you have made me very comfortable and confident in having you perform my surgery. Thank you again. P.S. Whitney was just awesome! She too was very helpful and extremely down to earth." H.B.
"Dear Dr. Miller, Thank you so very much for your delightful personality and professional work. I look forward to further assistance from your talent and work." G.M.
"I wanted to be big- bigger than Dr. Newman suggested. I didn't mind a hard appearance to my breasts. Actually, I think I look a little too natural now. I have reconsulted Dr. Newman about doing something to raise my breasts even more. The only option for me is a breast lift, which I don't want because of the scars. I realized though, that after I put on a bathing suit for the first time, I love my shape and shouldn't change anything."
"I had seen pictures from other doctors which showed the scars of breast lifts and they were quite obvious. I did not want any visible scars if possible. I spoke with Dr. Newman and he explained that as long as I was agreeable to an appearance where my breasts appeared slightly lower on my chest that he could give me an improved size and shape without the scars of a breast lift. If I weren't happy with my result I wouldn't be writing this for Dr. Newman. Not only am I happy, but I have also been back for another procedure and I have already recommended two friends to him. Also, his staff is incredible."
"My main concern was that I was so small that I didn't feel very feminine. I would only wear bulky clothes that would hide my body. I didn't want to be that big so I only went to a B-cup, but I'm happy. I also spoke to Dr. Newman about liposuction of my stomach. He suggested that I wait and that I will probably like my stomach better after my chest is more in proportion. This was very much the case, and now I like the way I look in jeans and dresses even though the surgery didn't do anything to my stomach."
"I am an attorney and I was concerned that my result would be so obvious that I would be uncomfortable at work. Dr. Newman met with me six times before my surgery, as I was very unsure about the size. He urged me to have implants that were a little bigger than what I was stating and he was right. I'm glad I went a little bigger. I had pain under the side of my breasts for about two weeks, although I was back at work on the third day after my surgery. I had some numbness in my right nipple for about two months, but now I have more feeling in both nipples than I had before."
"I started out completely flat-chested and just wanted something so I can feel a little feminine. Dr. Newman showed me lots of pictures and suggested to me that I go a little larger than we did. I was stubborn and felt that it would be greedy if I went any larger. I love my result and, yes, I do wish I went a bit larger. Dr. Newman did my mother's breast augmentation so this was the best recommendation I could ever get. I would recommend him to anyone as he was the only surgeon I went to who actually listened to what I wanted."
“It was very important to me that I obtain a result which is appropriate for my long narrow frame. Dr. Newman suggested that my implants be placed in a way that makes me more proportioned. He showed me many photographs of other patients including some with exactly my issue. I was even able to speak to one of these patients. This gave me much more confidence and made me more comfortable. I was petrified to do this in the first place. The system in Dr. Newman's office before, during and after surgery is very comforting and complete and worry-free. It is obvious that he has done this many times before”
"Dr. Newman was the third of four doctors I met with. He was the first to understand the differences between my two breasts and had ideas about how to make this difference less obvious. My recovery was fast and I flew on a business trip on the fourth day after my surgery. I did have a little more swelling on the right side than the left, but this resolved by about the end of the second week. I love my result, especially the fact that no one knows that I had surgery unless I tell them. I seem to be telling everyone though. If I had the chance to do this again I would have gone just a bit larger."
"Remarkable! Remarkable!” Wow, two remarkables from my sis, who is not prone to hyperbole, but is akin to winning the lottery! Masterful artist, gifted surgeon, words escape me, which rarely happens, as you know... The bottom line is you turned a saggy sixty into a fab fifty! And you do it with style and grace and incredible people! Rather, an incredible family of professionals! From the moment you walk in the door and meet Arlene, you feel happy and relaxed...Then, Sherry drags you down the hall kicking and screaming! Only kidding...There’s a feeling of safety and calm and caring with all of you. Bright lights and sharp steel are a bit unsettling for most of us, so that is the best feeling there is! Even entering the operating room that morning and seeing your "team” assembled was gentle... Janet settled me in with shampoo talk and off I went to Dreamland! The rest is history! Here I am, a thing of beauty and a joy forever! My heartfelt appreciation to YOU, Marcie, Arlene, Sherry, Janet, Kim, and Doc S. with the great sleepy medicine! (Hope I haven’t forgotten anyone!) With Respect and admiration! And Big Hugs!" L.W.
"Extremely pleased. I was so worried about the size result, but Dr. G. spent plenty of time on it and I was put at ease. He did a great job giving me what I wanted." P.H.
"Exceeded my expectations. I am 200% satisfied.... Thanks for being the "artistic perfectionist" that you are." J.F.
"You guys were great!! Very personal! Keep up the excellent work!" L.S.
"I just wanted to thank you once again for everything that you have done for me. I really appreciate all of the time you spent answering my questions, calming my fears and being the direct cause for the improvement of my physical appearance and general happiness." K.S.
"Dear Dr. Brenman: I really treasure your thoughtfulness and consideration for my needs as your patient. I am particularly grateful for the super job you did!! I know that my case was a difficult and complicated one I wish to express my gratitude to you from the bottom of my heart for taking care of me before and after surgery. I will be thankful and grateful to you forever!" L.P.
"Dear Dr. Brenman: It was hard to find the right card to thank you for my beautiful breasts and body! There really aren't too many out there! Anyway, you are a master at your craft and I am so pleased with the results of my surgery. You are the only plastic surgeon in Philly as far as I am concerned! Thanks also to your staff who are always polite and professional. Thank you again!" S.N.
"Dear Dr. Brenman, Saturday night I got dressed to go out for dinner and my daughter told me I looked beautiful. Thanks to you, I felt beautiful. Thank you for changing my life and also for being so sweet and compassionate. You've been blessed with a talent and it is nice to meet someone who really cares about what they do." C.S.
"Good Morning, Just wanted to thank you and your staff for a pleasant visit to your office for surgery last week. Everything went very well and I am so glad that I chose your office to do the procedure. Thanks again, I would not hesitate to use your office again as I am very happy with the results." S.B.
"Dear Dr. Brenman, I just wanted to say thank you. I know I must seem a bit over zealous about having the surgery, but you have no idea how happy I am about it. When I was 260 lb. I was completely happy with my body and my self-image. I then ended up in a 2-year relationship that was very emotionally abusive regarding my body. It is very hard for me to face that I ended up in that situation. The verbal abuse began slowly and completely wore my self-confidence down. It effected far more than just my physical self-image. I do not believe that I have to be stick thin or even thin, but we all need to be satisfied and happy with ourselves. This is the first time I have been able to recognize the fact that it is a great life accomplishment that I lost the weight and have held it off for a year. So thank you again for helping me be proud, happy and self confident again." L.G.
"Dear Dr. Brenman, Now that I am 4 weeks post-op, and the "nightmare" is behind me, I want to express my deepest thanks for the beautiful work you performed on me!!! It is very hard to appreciate what was done the first few weeks after the surgery. Now that I am feeling almost human again, I am able to think clearly and write this letter. My husband and I sincerely appreciate all of the time you spent with us at my 2 pre-op visits. You were honest and thorough, and we never felt rushed. I had been on 6 consults before I saw you, and there honestly was no other surgeon that we felt comfortable enough with to perform this major procedure. I had so many concerns about this surgery, and you listened and helped me understand all of the risks and benefits. I was even able to E-mail you when something was on my mind!! You are a very caring and skilled surgeon, and I thank you from the bottom of my TUMMY!!!! WE DID IT!!!!! And with NO complications!!!! I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday!!" C.P.
"Hi Doctor Brenman,Thanks for getting right back to me. You are the BEST! I'm feeling very good!!! I'm eating good, sleeping good and no pain. I do at times feel a little sore but I guess that's expected... My breasts are a little hard (I wish they would soften up) but I can deal with it. I can't believe how well I'm doing and how little the pain was. Mind over Matter! All of the bruising is almost gone and there is not much swelling left.. I think, In fact I know, I am recovering so well because I have a Great Plastic Surgeon who took the time and cared about me!!!"
"I had my BA on January 20th with Dr. Brenman. What a blessing to have found him!!! He is so kind, informative, professional, and respectful. From all of the PS's I interviewed in this area I found him to be the absolute best to work with. He is very attentive, and responsive. Taking a personal interest in my (and someone else's case that I met via your forums) case by responding personally to Emails and phone calls. I am 9 days post now and my breasts look unbelievable! He is pure genius!!!"
"Hi Doc, Just wanted to send a note to wish you and your family seasons greetings and a happy New Year. Things are going really well with me. I am feeling great and have settled into the desired small C large B range. I am delighted. You have given me a wonderful gift."
"Thank you so much for taking care of our Mike. Mike is truly a valued employee, but he is also a dear friend to us all. Your professionalism and good will, from the front desk to the Doctor, is amazing. Thanks for 'fitting us in'. We know first hand how hard that can be. Mike looks great already. He is a testament to your fine work. Thank you!" S.T.
"Working in healthcare often gives us an excuse to be critical of the care and treatment of patients. Dr. Yarinsky's expertise left no room for that. Please let him know that his professionalism and humanistic approach is greatly appreciated." P.Y.
"I am a general surgeon and have been following a patient of yours. You performed plastic surgery on her several weeks ago. I wish to compliment you on the excellent cosmetic result. I cannot imagine a better cosmetic result than you have achieved. I have asked the patient to have her picture taken and mailed to you. Congratulations!" L.S., MD
"Dr. Yarinsky and Staff, With heart full of thanks! I am very pleased with the results of my enhancement surgery. And I am even more thankful that I chose you as my doctor. Dr. Yarinsky, Holley, Scott and the rest of your staff are very professional and capable - I will not hesitate to return for future procedures or to recommend you for rhinoplasty [nose reshaping]." S.C.
"Dr. Yarinsky and Staff: I just wanted to send you a little note thanking you and your staff for your kindness and support before, during, and after my {breast augmentation}. I will recommend you to anyone who asks! Your nursing staff-Janet, Holley, the exerciser I never knew her name, were more than helpful and supportive. You have a great group of people working with you. Thanks again." D.F.
"Dr. Yarinsky, Thanks to you and your staff for a very comfortable and informative consultation. My fiancée and I were quite impressed with all that we learned. However, the very reason that I want to have breast implants at this specific time after wanting them for so long anyway, is the very reason that my fiancée objects: our wedding. He is probably right that this is a time when we can afford them the least. But I did not want you to get the wrong idea when we did not schedule a follow-up. We appreciate everything you and your staff did and will, hopefully, be back in the future! Thanks again!!!" K.G.
"Many thanks for your help! You have truly changed my life!! Not a day goes by where I don't think about you guys and how happy you've make me and much more confident! I love my new nose! It was worth every penny! I don't know how to thank you enough. Words can't describe how thankful I am. You guys are the best! You made me feel so comfortable during my surgery and were right there when I was unsure. Thank you so much!" K.P.
"I had liposuction and just wanted to let you know that I appreciated not only your professional skill but also how comforting you are in a stressful situation. Confidentiality was well done also. The lipo was something that I wanted, but that doesn't mean that I wasn't nervous. I think that all of you helped to make my surgery a success. Also I have noticed that since I don't have the thick waist that I had prior to liposuction, it is easier to exercise so now I don't get as frustrated and find myself actually liking my workouts!" N.M.
"I highly recommend this office for breast augmentation- it was a fantastic experience and a wonderful result. The staff is incredible and the Dr. is an artist." A.
"After seeing the results of my liposuction, my only question was, 'Why did I wait so long to have it done?'" C.B.
"I wish to specifically extend my gratitude to Dr. Yarinsky who was so patient and soothing... and whose blessed and dexterous hands performed a marvelous job." R.S.
"After my facelift...it is my pleasure to talk about how great my experience was." M.A.
"Thanks for the beautiful job you did on my legs...I can't believe the difference. It is remarkable how much it changes your self-image." C.D.
"You took off 10 pounds of fat, and in doing so changed my appearance drastically. My clothes even fit better! I can't tell you how happy I am." W.K.
"Dear Dr. Yarinsky, Thank you for assisting in making a dream come true!" J.L.
"I just wanted to say thanks again for taking such good care of me. The work you did on my face is amazing and I’m on my way to looking good as new! I am so grateful to you and your staff. All the best." L.O.
"Love the staff – feel I made the best choice possible by choosing Dr. Yarinsky." C.N.
"I am writing this letter with great gratitude and immense appreciation for everybody at Saratoga Springs Plastic Surgery. I have only been dealing with Dr. Yarinsky's office since the middle of January, and in that very small amount of time, they have certainly surpassed anything that I could ever dream up. I am dealing with special circumstances and Dr. Yarinsky took several extra steps, above and far beyond what I ever imagined he could or would do for me. I was speaking to Karen and Holly via telephone and I made a joke that I literally felt like ROYALITY when dealing with them. The only thing they don't do is roll out the red carpet...and here's the shocker, I haven't even had my procedure done yet. I will be updating this recommendation as soon as I am a finished product." J.
"I received a call from another potential patient. She is from Plattsburgh. I guess she had a consult with you. I gave her the low down on your office and Breast Augmentation procedures and told her that you are the best as far as I am concerned. She talked about going to Canada. I told her why you would do that. Well, it's cheaper, she replied. I told her yes, maybe it is. But can they be there for you like Dr. Yarinsky? He is here not in Canada. That's a long way to go if there are complications. I told her that the caring [from your office] doesn't stop after the surgery. Your staff and you do what you do well even after everything is done. And your office really cares. I also told her that your staff will make her as comfortable as they can throughout the surgery. I have the utmost confidence in you. I really love my BREASTS! Thank you for making me so happy...Thanks for being my Doctor..." K.H.
"My experience with Dr. Yarinsky and his staff was unbelievable. I have never been treated so well by anyone else in the medical profession. I honestly felt like they sincerely cared about me and my concerns. If I decide to have any other procedure, I wouldn’t even consider going to anyone else but Dr. Yarinsky. I am completely satisfied and thrilled with the results of my augmentation. Dr. Yarinsky was honest with me throughout every phase and that was important to my husband and me. I would (and do) recommend him to everyone I know!" M.L.
"Dr. Yarinsky & Staff, It’s rare to find an office as professional, organized and caring as yours. Thank you for everything!" J.R.
"I consulted with 3 different practices [regarding liposuction, tummy tuck, breast augmentation and breast lift]. None of the others were as informative or caring as you folks. I left the other places with more questions than answers and the feeling that I had taken up too much of the doctor’s time. I left Saratoga Springs Plastic Surgery feeling like I could make an informed decision and would be in good hands." J.L.
"I was very impressed by how well my consultation went. I felt very listened to and everything I had said, Gina & Dr. Sharma gave me their honest opinion. I appreciate that and look forward to having my surgery with you."
"I was extremely happy with the information I received from my consultation. Gina is extremely knowledgeable and she made me feel totally at ease! Also, Heidi and everyone up front are extremely friendly and helpful. Thank you for making my entire experience gratifying."
"Dr. Sharma & Staff, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you & your staff for the outstanding care that I received throughout my surgical experience. I have never encountered medical professionals that offered such compassion to their patients. I am so pleased with the "absolutely beautiful" results of my procedure. I would recommend your practice to anyone looking for an outstanding plastic surgeon. Thank-you again."
"I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr. Sharma and his staff. On the day of my initial consultation, I felt extremely comfortable and at ease with Dr. Sharma. All of my questions were answered thoroughly and professionally. They were truly concerned with all of my fears and assured me that every aspect of my procedure was covered. I scheduled my surgery on the same day, exactly 3 weeks after my consultation. On surgery day, I was really nervous and scared but everyone at the surgery center was reassuring and wonderful. The first 3 days after surgery were a little hard, but staying on top of my pain medication made a big difference! I am extremely pleased with my results. Dr. Sharma has not only given me more confidence but every aspect of my life has changed. The only regret I have is not doing this surgery sooner! Again, many thanks to Dr. Sharma and his wonderful staff!"
"Dr. Sharma, I want to let you know what a life altering experience my tummy tuck and liposuction was. I feel so much more attractive and confident as a woman. Thank you."
"Dear Dr. Sharma & Gina, Thank you all so much for everything. The flowers were beautiful and really meant a lot. You took such good care of me & J and I really appreciate it. I am feeling a lot better and look forward to seeing you in July!"
"Dr. Sharma, Words cannot express how truly happy I am with my results. you and your staff has not only made a difference in my appearance but in every aspect of my life! Thank you for the beautiful flowers, they really brightened my day. Wishing you & your staff prosperity for 2007 & beyond!"
"Dear Dr. Grover, First, congratulations on your new twins! Thank you for taking such good care of me thru this huge event! I love my results and the process has been much less painful than I thought 🙂 You and your staff have been amazing. Thank you thank you!"
"Dr. Grover, I wanted to thank you so very much for a wonderful experience you have exceeded my expectations. I am so happy with the results of my surgery absolute perfection! I can't thank you enough, you really took your time talking with me and I get exactly what I wanted. Thank you thank you thank you! your office is beautiful and your staff always made me feel welcome 🙂 I would recommend you to anyone who wants amazing plastic surgery and a wonderful doctor! Thank you!"
"Dear Dr. G., Thank you for making one of my dreams come true, your wonderful care and bedside manner put me at ease. And I love my new boobs! They are perfect!"
"Dr. Grover has such a soothing, unobtrusive persona that I immediately felt comfortable during my very first consultation and each one after that. I had many questions swirling around in my head. He covered the tummy tuck technique so completely. His knowledge is impeccable. He is patient. He is thorough. He is a gem in the field of Plastic Surgeons. Four weeks have passed since my abdominoplasty and my stomach is unbelievably beautiful and flat. An added bonus, no stretch marks! at age 68, the results are more than I could have imagined. The contour of my body was given back to me along with a surge of self-confidence. The doctor's integrity and skillful hand are a winning combination. Dr. Grover exudes care, kindness and compassion. I am absolutely pleased beyond words to have him as my plastic surgeon."
"Dr. Grover and Staff: This is just a quick thanks for your kindness and helpfulness on the day of my surgery! I am completely happy with the wonderful results I am seeing and am so glad I finally decided (after contemplating for three years!) to get this surgery! your gentle words really helped calm my nerves as well as the detailed info letting me know step by step what to expect! i have recommended your office to several of my friends here in the "Windy City" Chicago and even have one who is planning on having a surgery before the end of the year! I look forward to seeing all of you in November for my follow-up!"
"Dear Dr. Grover, It has been just 2.5 weeks since my surgery and I couldn't feel better about the way I look and feel! I know from the moment I met with you that you would be my doctor. You and your staff made me feel special from day one. Like you really care care abut what you do for people. I want to thank you for really listening to me and my needs. Everytime I look in the mirror I can't believe how good you made me look. Please use me as a reference if you like for any future patients."
“Just a little token of my appreciation for working wonders on my tummy and for your patience…I made the right decision in choosing you.” N.R.
“I interviewed many doctors over a 2-year period about a facelift…My first meeting with Dr. Grover made me feel very confident. I liked his approach, his suggestions and his candor about what to expect…He cared that I felt confident, comfortable and clear with him and what he was going to do. More importantly, my facelift was a huge success. I look exactly as I hoped to and my recovery was quick and trouble-free. I would go to Dr. Grover again in a heartbeat.” S.K.
“My experience with liposuction by Dr. Grover was an extremely positive one. My thighs were nicely shaped and I had a flat stomach for the first time in my life! After a week or so of slight bruising, there were no scars or marks left over from the surgery…Dr. Grover himself is so caring and gentle…I would not recommend anyone other than Dr. Grover for plastic surgery. I have received so many compliments and have a great body because of him! I encourage anyone who is considering liposuction to do it because it truly has a positive impact on not just your body but also boosts your self confidence and makes you feel really good about yourself!” N.Z.
"I could never thank Dr. Grover enough for what he has done for me and given me. He has given me the perfect shape that I have always wanted and a beautiful, hard, flat, stomach that so many people dream of having…I have had two children, and I thought that after pregnancy my breasts and stomach would never look the same. I was right. Thanks to Dr. Grover my breasts and stomach look better than they have ever looked before. Dr. Grover has given me a type of self confidence that I had never had before. I have never met such a kind, caring, respectful physician/surgeon who is not only a perfectionist, he believes in the natural look. Thanks Dr. Grover!" S.M.
"I am a 45-year-old mother of two teenagers… Over the course of ten years, I consulted with approximately fifteen different plastic surgeons, all of whom were highly recommended with years of experience; many of them very well known…After meeting Dr. Grover, I knew that I had finally found the right surgeon, and I scheduled my surgery after a ten-year wait!…The surgery and recovery were a breeze; easy and relatively painless…Most important of all, my results were absolutely amazing! Dr. Grover had told me that I would be very happy; however, my fantastic results far exceeded my expectations! Two weeks post-surgery, when my dressing, tape and stitches were removed, my husband took his first thorough glimpse. He told me that I now had the breasts of an 18-year-old! I was, and I continue to be astounded by the dramatic and improved difference this surgery has made. I am also thrilled to say that I have barely a hint of any scarring. I accredit these outstanding results to the precision and skill of Dr. Grover. His before, during and after care procedures are thorough and unsurpassed. I just smile and thank myself everyday for making the decision to have this surgery and for selecting Dr. Grover. " S.F.
"I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Grover and his staff.

I go and look at the pictures you have in your website, mine does look the best! Good job, doc! You will never know how much I appreciate you. May God bless and keep you. You are not only a great doctor, but a wonderful man who really cares for his patients. Thank you again for being there for me. " S.
"I wanted you to know how thrilled I am with my breast enhancement. I woke up one day and looked out the window at my neighbors - they are slightly older - kids out of the house now and were hanging out by their pool, just enjoying life. It made me realize how young I still am and how much life I have ahead of me and how I want to enjoy it to the fullest. I am 36, and from the day I called to schedule my consultation, I knew I was going to have this done by you. I was so happy with the way the consultation went and so nervous about the size I was choosing. I called several times prior to my surgery date to "make sure" I was choosing the right size. The girls were so pleasant and made me feel comfortable with my decision. Thank goodness I listened to your input. The day of surgery, even the nurse at Bayshore expressed how well prepared I was and all of your patients are. There were no last minute problems or issues. I was so happy with the way the surgery went. After getting home and resting, I had what was like a meal for a king in bed - I had my husband to take care of me. Immediately the next day, I was feeling good. After taking off the bandage and looking in the mirror, I wanted to come straight to your office and hug each of you. I was immediately relieved and so happy with my results... I was calling everyone. My family and friends have been so supportive and happy for me. I finally did something just for myself. I have worked out practically my whole life, and then having two boys and taking care of them, I feel this surgery was my ultimate reward. I feel more feminine - I feel really happy in my clothes, and my husband and I after 13 years of marriage are on fire together! This gave me a confidence I had no idea I was lacking. I'm already back at the gym and doing all my normal activities. So thank you - thank you - thank you. I am so happy!" A.
"Thank you ever so much for being so helpful and understanding. This is something I have wanted for a long time and you made something scary actually enjoyable. You went out of your way for me, coming in from out of state - and I'll never be able to thank you enough. Stephanie - you sensed my nervousness and calmed me. Thank you again... all of you!!" B.
"You have changed my life. I will never be able to tell you how grateful I am. Thank you so much. God bless you. " K.
"Ever since second grade, when all the other girls were developing breasts except for me, I have always wondered when it was my turn. My turn finally came when I met Dr. Sukkar and his amazing staff! I was very nervous about undergoing breast enhancement surgery, but I was also very excited because this was something I had always wanted to do for myself. I can never express fully how thankful I am to Dr. Sukkar, Penny, Mary, Rhonda, and Stephanie for making this life changing experience a smooth and easy process. For the first time ever, I am able to wear dresses without getting them altered, wear a bikini with confidence, and buy tank tops I have never been able to buy before. Thank you again to Dr. Sukkar and staff for providing a boost in my self-confidence, and changing my life forever! " C.
"I was very nervous to have another surgery after 3 C-sections. Going through a nasty divorce and feeling as low as one can feel about my appearance, I was searching for an instant confidence booster while I remained in counseling. I believe Dr. Sam Sukkar is a true artist and a superior surgeon. He was genuinely concerned about my desires and applying reality to a mutually achievable goal. My results are REMARKABLE AND SURPASSED MY EXPECTATIONS! I took the time to review Dr. Sukkar’s credentials, and due to results he achieved with me, I know he genuinely cares about the results of his work. Dr. Sukkar surrounds himself with the best staff I have ever encountered. He is a superior surgeon and a very talented visionary. My children have noticed Mommy’s joy, which reverberates into their psyches. I am ready to tackle each day and approach stress with more positive notions because I FEEL GOOD ABOUT THE WAY I LOOK! I have myself back, and I am extremely pleased. I am very grateful Dr. Sukkar has helped me feel joyful and sexy again! " A.
"I am so pleased with the results of my surgery. My recovery was so easy and uneventful. It has been about two months since the surgery, and I am back to life as usual here in Maryland, only everything is so much better now. When I'm back in Texas next summer for my annual visit home, I will make a point to stop in and say hello. I have resumed my exercise routine, and I can actually see some ab muscles appearing for the first time in 11 years. It is so fun. My scar is still red, but I know that will fade with time. It is so thin, and it looks really good. I am so pleased with my new chest, too. It is just the right size and so natural looking. All of my clothes still fit, only they look so much better now that I fill them out. I am so thankful for the counsel of Dr. Sukkar. I am very pleased with the silicone. The time I spent at Dr. Sukkar’s office was such a pleasure. All of the staff were delightful and so helpful. Dr. Sukkar was wonderful and relieved all my anxieties. I have spoken very highly of my procedure to all of my friends and family. It is my hope that if they choose to undergo any plastic surgery they will seek out Dr. Sukkar’s office. Please pass on my gratitude to Dr. Sukkar for his skill and his kindness. I am very thankful and I feel FANTASTIC! With tremendous gratitude," K.
"My experience with Dr. Sukkar and his staff was excellent! From the first phone call, I felt 100% important and safe to ask questions. When I walked into the office for the first time, I felt at home. There were these great people with huge smiles and excellent personalities to great me, and Dr. Sukkar was extremely professional, but very personable. We talked about the surgery, about our families, and even about my boots! He seemed like a friend. And this friend performed miracles! My results are 200 times better than I ever expected, and I recommend him to anyone and everyone! The #1 question I have been asked since surgery is, "Would you do it again?” My answer is, "Yes! But only with Dr. Sukkar!” " K.
"Dr. Sukkar, I wanted to thank you for everything you have done for me! If you didn't know this already, I had also scheduled four more consultations with other doctors along with yours. I was very nervous coming to you, because you were the first male doctor I had ever been to, YES EVER!!!! The reason I am telling you this is because I wanted to know how comfortable you and your staff made me feel during this whole process. I was so confident in you, that after our consultation I canceled the rest of my consultations with the other doctors. I also scheduled my surgery date the same day. The work you have done for me and my body is unbelievable. I am so happy with it, that is why I have been given you so many referrals. I carry your business cards with me to give to people when they ask me about the work I had done. A lot of people are hesitant to ask me questions about my surgery, but I am not a shy person. The way I feel about it is: YOU DID ALL THE HARD WORK YOU SHOULD GET THE CREDIT. You have given me back what I thought I had lost. I know I am a big kidder when I come in, but all jokes aside, my surgery was a huge success, and I know the ones to come will be nothing less than PERFECT. Thank you again for every thing you have done and given back to me. You and your staff are the BEST! Thank you again," L.
"I went to Dr. Sukkar to obtain a breast lift and to replace my current implants with smaller ones. I have wanted a breast lift for many years. My previous doctor had retired from practicing due to medical reasons. He referred all of his patients to Dr. Sukkar. I spoke with some of my friends who had gone to other doctors, but was unsure whom to schedule my consultation with. My older sister was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and had to have a mastectomy. The surgeon who performed the mastectomy referred her to Dr. Sukkar to do breast reconstruction. It made me feel comfortable knowing another surgeon's opinion of Dr. Sukkar, so I booked a consultation. I am very pleased with the results of my surgery. I have received so many compliments from my friends telling me how much better I look when we go boating. My husband was not an advocate of the surgery due to the scars involved. Since I've had the surgery, he is very pleased with the results too. Even though it has been less than 2 months since my surgery, my scars have faded already. They have the best staff, too. Everyone is very friendly and has made me feel comfortable at all of my visits. I would recommend Dr. Sukkar to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon. If there are any other procedures I am interested in having done in the future, I will definitely go to Dr. Sukkar." D.
"I just had an augmentation by Dr. Sukkar after years of wanting it done. Now that I have, I would do it every day if I knew I was going to feel this wonderful - But, I had a really great result. I "shopped" around as all women do, and found his results to far exceed any others in the Houston area. He is very patient, calming and honest. His office staff are like your family after you leave there! Dr. Sukkar listened to what I wanted and gave me the natural result that I always dreamed of. I have since referred all my friends, and they all have been just as happy." C.
"I went on four consultations and there was no comparison to Dr. Sukkar and his staff. He made me feel calm. He listened to me and after a few minutes talking with him I felt like I could trust him completely. I told him what size I wanted, brought in pictures and my results are exactly the way I had always dreamed of being. My husband is a … and he asked many questions during our consultation. Sam answerd every one of them and even gave us some more detailed information about the procedure that no other Plastic Surgeon had offered to give us. My husband was very impressed. My recovery has been amazing. I was able to take a shower the day after surgery (and WOW that felt sooo good!). I was back to work on day 4 and off my pain medications. The pain was far less than I had ever expected. I truly feel like Dr. Sukkar's new generation surgical skills made a big difference in my speedy recovery. My sister and a good friend are planning to go to him soon. His staff is very professional and I felt like I could call or email any questions I had. They responded quickly to my questions and were very easy to talk to. I really think that is important too. I would strongly suggest him to anyone who asks. " J.L.
"Dr. Silk, Thanks for the great job you did for me. I'll be back when I start to look like the dog again!"

"Dear Dr. Romans, Thank you so much for taking such good care of me before, during and after my surgery. I had so much anxiety and fear going in for the surgery I nearly canceled it. I am thrilled with the results, and look forward to many positive physical and emotional changes in myself into the months ahead! Thank you again for all you have done for myself and for my daughter, we will forever be grateful."
"Dear Dr. Romans, Thank you for being the BEST at what you do best - making your patients more beautiful! I saw the beautiful faces on this tie, and I think it's perfect for you."
"Thank you for your excellent patient care."
"Hi Dr. Romans & Staff, It has been almost 3 years since my surgery...I am still very pleased with my results...I was asked to model for SVMH's recruitment campaign called "EXTREME NURSING!" They want to highlight their staff in other aspects of their lives. For me it was fitness. I never would have been able to pose for these photos if you had not done such good work. The first time I saw these pictures, I thought of you. Thanks again. P.S., I am finding myself referring many of my clients to you for skin removal post weight loss. I hope business is good."
"Dr. Romans & Staff, Dreams do come true! Thank you!"
"Dear Dr. Romans, Thank you so much for everything you have done to help me this year. I am so very grateful for both your skill and talent. You have changed my live. Thank you."
"Dear Dr. Lee, A couple of months ago you performed miracle surgery with your golden hands. I was originally supposed to have the MOHS procedure at the office of my dermatologist. When I stopped into your office, I inquired why you couldn’t perform the whole removal of my nasal cancer. Your receptionist was fabulous! Her professionalism and smile were congruent with her orchestrating the surgery entirely with you. Many of my neighbors have had the MOHS and their scar is incredibly obvious. When I tell them I had surgery, they can’t believe it. Initially you had me looking like I housed a zipper on my nose. In a month, there was nothing left!!! I feel like shouting from the rooftops what a spectacular surgeon you are. Recently I came to investigate some cosmetic surgery on my face. You were so honest in telling me that I probably wouldn’t see a change. In this economy? You are fantastic. Thank you again for the perfect removal of the cancer I know you graduated top in your class!" J.
"Dr. Lee, We feel so fortunate to have met you. It is most unusual to meet a confident, friendly, knowledgeable, compassionate man with a contagious personality and great sense of humor who is also a very special doctor. Thank you for your rapid response for Frank’s arm and for your time and effort to fix my butt. The lady with no belly-button and the man who has one."
"Dr. Lee, Sandra & Shirley, I wanted to express how thankful I am for the wonderful service you gave me for the 2 surgeries. Dr. Lee completely redesigned my saggy breasts and made me feel so much better! They look and feel marvelous! The tummy tuck is just as great! I am so pleased at how you far exceeded my expectations. You do awesome work, Dr. Lee and the girls that work along side you are an asset to your practice. You all have eased my fears & made this experience in my life a very glad one that I will not regret. Thank you & I would recommend you to anyone even though I live 3 hours away! You guys are the best!! Love & appreciation" M.
"Dear Dr, Lee and Staff, When I was referred to you, it never entered my mind to search for anyone else, as time past, I realized I had not only made the right choice for my surgeon, but I had chosen the very best there is in Port Saint Lucie. I have always felt that most Doctor’s are so very busy, that you are just another face with some sort of problem they can help out or solve for you. I believe that you have to trust a Dr. and have some sort of comfort level if they are going to be your doctor, but more so if they are going to be the one doing surgery on you. From the very first meeting there was a lot of comfort level from you, even from my husband who is not so crazy about doctors, but also is very impressed with you. Now, after my surgery, when people ask about my surgery, and who my Doctor is many people know of you, either personally, or through a friend or relative. Everyone can not tell me enough about how great, wonderful and caring you are and the people in your office too. What I see and feel is a doctor with passion for what he does; each person is a personal goal and interest to grant the best for them. People don’t find doctors that have that kind of passion for what they do. But not only is it a passion, along with that goes deep caring, kindness, and interest that is something very authentic and special in a doctor. The staff is all kind and considerate, they all have a deep passion for service also, over and beyond what is called for in a doctor’s office. But the bottom line, no matter what anyone else feels or says, you are my "hero”. To me you are someone very special, and I will always remember the things you have done for me and my family, in such a kind and sweet way. I know you have worried about me, you also kept my family informed of things that were going on, and for that I can not thank you enough, ever. I think you’re a great Doctor and plastic Surgeon. Sincerely," P.
"Dr. Lee, Sandra & Staff, I want to thank you all for the wonderful outcome & care of the different procedures that I have had done. Dr. Lee you are the absolute best surgeon that I have ever seen or heard about. The friends that I have recommended have also been so pleased. You have a God given talent and your staff, especially Sandra is outstanding. Your patient, your friends, your admirer!!" M.
"Dr. Lee & Staff, I just wanted to thank you for the "wonderful” new me. My confidence is so much better now knowing that the "little imperfections” I once had are gone. You and your staff were so very warm from the minute I walked in! I will be sure to recommend you to all my family and friends! No only are you and artist with your work! You put your heart in it also! Thanks again." N.
"Tomorrow (5/1) is my surgery and I’m here at home getting ready, anticipating tomorrow. I can’t believe I’m actually doing this…the last thing in the world I thought I would do. My pride had to be tucked away and I admitted I need a little help. My point in writing you is to express my deepest sincere thank you because of your very kind demeanor ad a doctor and a person. Sandra always said how wonderful you were … now I know what she meant. Thank you for taking your time to explain everything to me, not rush me and act like my questions and concerns were stupid. May God bless you to morrow while I am in your hands. You are a very professional and kind doctor. Thank you." T.
"Dr. Lee, You were absolutely marvelous! Here’s what you did right: 1. You were patient. 2. You listened very well. 3. You answered honestly. (We needed that) 4. Had a good sense of humor. 5. Gave good perspectives. 6. You refused to get rattled. (Especially by Toni, and she/I tried.) 7. You were easy on the eyes. Thanks for putting up with me." J.
"Dr. Lee & Staff, Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!! Words can’t express how much we appreciate all of you!! Dr. Lee – with your professionalism, patience and warm bedside manner. You are brilliant "Dr. Artist”!!! Sandra & Shirley- Both of you make quite a support team. Knowledgeable, patient and kind. All together ya’ll take it to the next level. Thanks for making our experience a good one. We know just what to expect and when to expect it. We’ll forever be grateful. Sincerely," M.
"I wanted to say thank you. You all went out of your way to accommodate me quickly. Your professionalism and caring is much appreciated." J.S.
"Just a quick note of thanks for such excellent work. I am enjoying the results and felt you should know." S.R.
"Words will never express how thankful and appreciative I am for everything you have done. all I can say is thank you from the bottom of my heart." H.S.
"...Six years ago I had a breast reduction. At the time, I was very happy with the results. However, now that I am a mommy, I am even more grateful for the job you did. I have been successfully breastfeeding my son for the past 5 months. I have you to thank for my ability to form a breastfeeding relationship with my baby boy. Thank you for making this possible. I am not only satisfied with the way I look, but also for the ability to provide for my son." R.K.
"....Thank you so very much. I have no words to say how I feel about my surgery. For years I put off the surgery but I guess I was waiting for the right doctor at the right time...." G.A.
"Thank you so much for making me feel beautiful... I'm very happy with my results." A.S.
"Thank you all for all you did for me throughout my entire experience at your center. From my first phone call to your office and every visit since, you all made me feel so comfortable. You are all so very kind and caring. I appreciate all that each of you did for me... I thank you for your constant support, guidance, assistance and encouragement throughout my entire process! I could not be happier with my results and my entire experience with you! You all played a role in making me a more confident and happier person. My experience at the Thompson Center was truly life-changing!" M.L.
"I want you to know that you guys are the best. Your professionalism and compassion made may surgery a lot easier. Dr. T, your hands are magic gifts and I'm so thankful." N.J.
"I just wanted to express my thanks to the best doctor and staff a patient could ask for." A.C.
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It's been an unbelievable blessing: your patience, understanding, and gifts go far beyond what I ever imagined. I truly appreciate you and what you did to change my life." D.B.
"Dr. Abrams did my breast augmentation and lift in September 2010. I trust him completely and recommend him hightly! Dr. Abrams is a talented and gifted surgeon. He is triple or quadruple certified and you will be hard pressed to find a more qualified surgeon. I did my homework and I would never settle for less!" J.R.
"I recently had my nose done with Dr. Abrams and had such a wonderful experience with him. He is so professional, kind, and honest. He listened to all my concerns and made sure that I was 100% comfortable with my decision to have surgery before going through with it. He is not the type of guy who will push you to have surgery for his benefit; he wants to make sure that his patients are totally comfortable and happy with their decision. He also was so helpful in giving me all the information I needed way in advance, so I would be completely prepared for the surgery and know what to expect. And after the surgery, he made sure to follow up with me frequently to make sure that I was doing OK. And besides just his hospitality and level of professionalism, the surgery went SO AMAZINGLY WELL!!! I am SOOOOO happy with my nose, it looks so beautiful and natural, to the point that all my friends and family just says they notice something different but can't exactly tell what. Because it's so natural, it doesn't look like a fake, overly tiny, Hollywood nose. It's just perfectly natural, unique, and fits my face. It's obvious Dr. Abrams really looks at each of his patients individually and doesn't have a "formula" for all the noses he does, but instead, makes sure that each time he does surgery on someone, it's individualized to fit their exact features and needs. Overall, I was EXTREMELY HAPPY with my experience with Dr. Abrams, he's truly a one of a kind physician and I would 100% RECOMMEND HIM to anyone who is interested in any type of plastic surgery." A.L.
"GREAT EXPERIENCE. Dr. Abrams was great. Surgery went really well, he answered all my questions and concerns in advance, recovery was super easy. Very professional, barely waited when I got there for consultation, all his staff is so sweet, I was just so comfortable throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend him." M.B.
"Considering I have known you for the past nine years, I feel this letter has been long overdue. It is my hope that it finds you in good spirit and delivers a message of appreciation and thanks for the superior care and service you have been so generously providing to my family, friends, and myself.We love you, Dr. Abrams. Keep up the good work." N.K.
"My Daughter and I got home safe and sound a day after you have removed the tubes. I felt so good that we made an attempt to reschedule our flight home from 21st to 6th and we did so. We still are shocked that how smoothly everything happened, that I could travel 20 hours back home, only six days after my Tummy Tuck surgery!!! As I said it before you are an Artist. I do not know how to thank you enough with words, the fact that we traveled 3000 miles from up North, for the second time to be treated by you, is a testimony that all of us in my family have strong faith in you as a human being and trust your expertise as a professional. My husband and I trusted you once before with our daughter's nose (which resulted in manifesting her beauty), and once again with me with this stunning result. I have to confess that I was terrified for my surgery away from home, but now I know I have wasted my time being so worried. Now I confidently encourage my friends who have the same problem to go ahead and book appointment for their surgery and needless to say that you are the only Plastic surgeon that I recommend to them. My husband is expressing his appreciation and both of us invite you to our humble home in Upstate New York for an opportunity to express our appreciation with my 'somewhat good cooking' " J.J.
"I have to tell you, as someone skeptical about how much my genetically droopy neck could be fixed (and I mean, hit me with your best shot from both sides of my family with the double chins), I cannot believe the outcome from Dr. Abrams at GIAA (Genetic Institute for Anti-Aging). I had a neck lift. Sheer brilliance. It's a right angle not a slope. He should get a Nobel prize. (Also had some love handle removal which is amazing too!) PLUS, everyone in the office is polite, helpful, and, get this - efficient! Completely on the ball. Ready for your appointment, calling with updates and to see how you're feeling post-op. Every doctor I met with on the day of surgery was totally nice, comforting, professional. The facility is SPOTLESS. I honestly could not give this place a better review. 100% happy. Anytime you have someone alter your appearance, it's scary, but I have to say, if you want to have something done, it's worth going to GIAA (highly recommend Dr. Ruben Abrams). I flew in from N. Calif. for it, and don't regret it for a second." A.E.
"I had a tummy tuck, intense breast lift with implants all at the same time with Dr Abrams and I could not possibly be any happier. I did not have one single problem, everything went smoothly. I have since referred my family and friends with him and not one single person has been unhappy." J.F.
"Dr. Abrams did my breast augmentation and lift in September 2010. I trust him completely and recommend him highly! Dr. Abrams is a talented and gifted surgeon. He is triple or quadruple certified and you will be hard pressed to find a more qualified surgeon. I did my homework and I would never settle for less!" J.R.

"Thank you so much for all your help over the last couple months! Dinner is on me! Take your family." J.
"I wanted to do something special for you. But I didn’t know what… I mean what do you get a surgeon. So with your interest including Art & Photography, I decided to purchase this gift certificate for you. I hope you find time to use it and enjoy it as much as I do mine. We did ours a couple years ago, they are family heirlooms that are truly priceless. Dr. Semlacher, I can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done and are doing for me. I hope you truly know, just how much I appreciate you & everything you’ve done. I know it’s just everyday work for you, but to your patients that you touch, it affects the rest of their lives." R.A.
"Just wanted to thank you so much for all you have done for me. I really appreciate everything. My family and I think you are the best doctor ever! I will always refer you business!" D.A.
"I just wanted to thank you for everything! You’ve really been there for me with you kindness & knowledge, through all of this. I really do appreciate you, and all you do." R.A.
"Thank you for doing such beautiful work. I now have the pretty figure I have always wanted." R.W.
"I would like to thank you for the excellent care I have received from your office. You and your staff have far exceeded my expectations. Thank you not only for professionalism that you and your staff displayed; but also for the time you take with your explanation of each step of the procedure. We all try to do our best in our profession it is obvious that you are an exceptionally skilled surgeon and I am thankful for having been referred to your office – and look forward to referring many additional patients to your care. Thank you for the flowers after surgery that was thoughtful." J.G.M.
"I want to thank you so much for your wonderful work that you did and for getting me taken care of so quickly. Your knowledge and expertise is so impressive. Thank you again and keep up the awesome work that you do." S.S.
"Thank you for the beautiful work you did. To the staff you guys are the best. I appreciate all the care you have given to me." M.S.
"Thank you for the wonderful care that you gave me. You both make me feel like I am the most important patient. I am extremely happy with my results." L.O.

"I though I’d give you an update on my daughter N. who is progressing very well. Please share this with surgeons Green, Sasaura, Cometo, Gregory, Dr. Naseer, and the other professionals that helped her get through her fight with Necrotizing Fasciitis. As a preface to this update, I recall that after her life and leg were saved, we understood that she’d be walking in about a year – that’s about a month from now. Fortunately she has done a bit better than that prediction. She’s been walking without a limp for months, and her activities this summer included the following: Competed in this year’s Eppies Grate Race with two other women, where N. did the bike leg of the race. They finished in 2nd place. N. won the Ironwoman competition (where the competitor does all 3 legs of the race) in 2009 and 2010. One month ago she and a group of friends climbed Mt. Shasta, which is a bit over 14,000 feet in elevation. As a parent and a physician that contributed to N.’s recovery , you understand how happy and proud I am of her. Although these words are inadequate, thanks again to you and the other professionals at Mercy San Juan for everything you all did for her." J.A.Y.
"I am writing this letter with great gratitude and immense appreciation for all that Dr. Roy Semlacher has done on my behalf regarding surgical care and attention. His phenomenal understanding of the human body and all of it’s dynamics allows him to have impeccable outcomes. I personally felt impressed by his gross knowledge and self confidence in his work. Dr. Semlachers morals and ethics shined through as he took extra steps to insure my health and safety would never be compromised from my decision to augment. His surgical skills combined with his diligence should not go unnoticed." L.M.
"I had breast augmentation by Dr. Semlacher 9-10 years ago. Since then I have sent countless friends to him that have also had the surgery done. Why? Because they all told me they would have never guessed I had surgery because they looked so natural. I'm now 44 so I have regular mammograms {funny story}. Every time I go in, you fill out the form that asks if you have implants. The technicians always say they look so natural and beautiful do you mind me asking you where's the scar. Although a little awkward feeling they all tell me they have seen thousands of breast augmentations and a lot of them are so messed up or very visible scars. So since I just had my most recent mammogram, I thought it was a perfect time to say thanks Dr. Semlacher for a great job." M.H.
"I am three weeks post-op and had a wonderful experience. I went to Dr. Semlacher in Carmichael/Sacramento. My friend had gone to Dr. Semlacher last year and also had a wonderful experience. Your site helped me to reassure that Dr. Semlacher was an accredited plastic surgeon and that he was recommended by your site. Thanks so much. I started out as a 34b, saggy from childbearing and nursing and came out as a 34D, 5'4" 125, 300cc, under, saline, peri, o/f 330L and 345R. I had not one bruise and minimal swelling. I was back to work on day three and have a hairline scar, at 3 weeks post-op you can't see it unless you are looking for it. My friends could not believe how well I was doing the night after surgery. I was up walking around, talking, and even laughing. I had always heard of these horrible stories from women who had ba done, drains, bed ridden, etc. I had the best experience I think is possible. Dr. Semlacher is extremely knowledgeable and up to date with the latest medical techniques and advancements. His staff too is extremely helpful. He is the type of doctor who is more concerned about giving you implants that fit your body, not make an easy buck. He will not go beyond a certain cc I think 400cc and if you want bigger, he will refer you out. The whole point is not to look fake right? When I went in for my first day post-op checkup I had flowers there waiting for me to take home from him and his staff. I thought that that was such a nice gesture. The bottom line is that I would recommend him to anyone including my close friends and family and would like to see more women experience a positive and happy BA."
"Dear Dr. Semlacher, I just wanted to take a minute and tell you how much I appreciate your services. As you may know, my wife and I went to other surgeons before coming to your office for her surgery. As her husband it was very difficult for me to stand there and watch a stranger draw all over my wife with a felt pen like she was a piece of meat to be butchered. These doctors gave no consideration as to how embarrassing it may have been for my wife or how difficult it was for me to stand there while my wife was exposed to the world. Not only were you compassionate for my wife's feelings but you also considered mine. Your bedside manner could not have been better. You made both of us as comfortable as possible and kept her exposure to a minimum. Your professionalism is appreciated and unsurpassed. My wife has fully recovered and is very pleased with her out come. As for me, I am just happy that she is happy. I again thank you and wish you all the best." S.H.
"I'm fairly attractive and I could wear nice clothes. But I could never wear decent bathing suits or evening gowns," says 42-year-old Bonnie (not her real name), whose small breasts shrunk after breast feeding. She had considered breast augmentation surgery but never felt she had "that type of money tucked away". Then, she says, "I just got looking my body and thought, 'I'm just going to go ahead and do it'". Once she made the decision she moved quickly. "I wanted to get it done before the holidays," she says, and many physicians she called couldn't get her in. But Roy Semlacher, M.D., F.R.C.S.C., could. More important to Bonnie, she sensed that he was honest. "He said some surgeons... do this procedure and turn them around in a hour's worth of surgery but that he took closer to three hours. I wanted someone to do a good job. Plus, I went to his web page and it had examples of before and after, and I liked what I saw". And she was pleased with the result of her surgery. "I've had no complications from the surgery and no scarring visible. Now anything I put on is just sexy," she says. "I told my doctor, 'I don't want to be a pin-up, but I want to look voluptuous'. There's a big difference there because I'm a professional woman. I didn't want my husband to be part of the decision because he'd go for the biggest cup size", she adds, laughing." Sacramento Magazine
Dear Dr. Gruber, I can't Thank you enough for all that you did. I was so self conscious for so many years, worried that boys and men were staring at me for being flat-chested. You fixed all that and how I feel about myself. THANK YOU.
Dr. Gruber, This is just a note of appreciation for all the nice things your staff did for me during the time I spent at your office and surgery center. Thank you once again for the fabulous job! My boyfriend thanks you too. We both Thank you. Stay well and say hi to everyone and I hope they like the cookies.
Dr. Gruber, Who knew the surgery would be so easy, Wow! I told my girl friends. They are so jealous. And your staff was so nice. They made me feel relaxed. You were so right too, I thought I should be really big, but too big is not good any more than too small. Hope to see you again. Thanks a lot.
Dear Dr. Gruber and Staff: My sister told me to come to your office. I must admit I was very nervous. If she didn't come with me that day I don't think I would have had the nerve to see you. And your girls were so kind to me. Especially the nurses. They told me everything I was supposed to do and not do. My surgery was so smooth. Now look at me! My clothes fit so well, of course I had to buy a new wardrobe, which didn't make my husband too happy but who cares. Thanks, you're the best.
"Dr. Friedman and his staff did everything they could to make me feel comfortable and informed me about my procedure, and succeeded with flying colors! Each meeting with him and his staff was 100% professional and no question or concern remained unrecognized. I was shown multiple before and after pictures and even offered the option to talk to other women undergoing the same procedure as me to ensure that I knew what to expect following the operation. Dr. Friedman and his team made me feel like a part of their family, and the results…were nothing short of perfect!" B.M.
"The procedure that I chose to do was something that I had wanted for quite some time but was very apprehensive. Dr. Friedman and his entire medical staff have been really great. They answered all of my questions and really put me at ease. My procedure went great and I'm very satisfied with the outcome! Dr. Friedman is a very talented doctor and I would go back to him for any future procedures." C.P.
"I so very much appreciate the talent you have been given and how you use this ability to help other people. A little over three and a half years ago you performed a fantastic surgery on my sixty six year old body. What a success! I am truly happy with the results. Not only are you a confident surgeon, your personality is charming. I felt very much at ease as you did both pre and post-op exams. You respect that some folks don’t undress easily in front of a relative stranger. Thank you for that. You explained thoroughly the procedure, down-time, healing. Furthermore, you and your extremely competent staff were unbelievably encouraging and friendly, available and helpful. My recovery was a snap. Yea! Every time I look at the results of the surgery you performed, I thank God for my husband (he loves me and gladly paid for surgery), for you and your talent, for all the time and energy invested in helping this seventy-year young woman look and feel absolutely blessed. Wow! May God continue to bless you." C.M.
"My experience with Dr. Friedman and the staff during my recent eyelid surgery was superb. Naturally I had lots of anxiety, but he and his medical staff made the process much easier than I expected. If anyone is thinking about having the procedure, I highly recommend going ahead with it and feel confident in Dr. Friedman to make it a positive experience." B.M.
"After a minor accident almost left me a pair of fingers short, Dr. Friedman skillfully and almost painlessly repaired the damage. He and his staff are true professionals. They handled complex insurance requirements as well as the complex medical procedure with ease." S.D.
"My experience with Dr. Friedman's office was a positive one from the first phone call to the post-op visits and everything in between. Dr. Friedman and office staff are very honest about expectations, as well as being informative and encouraging. The office staff, nurses and Dr. Friedman go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and confident about the decision you have made regarding your body. I would recommend their office to anyone I know who is considering elective surgery." S.S.
"When you walk into the office, you will notice that it is very clean, and the staff is very friendly. Dr Friedman and his staff have made me feel like family. He never makes you feel like he is in a hurry. He is there to simply make you feel better .I also feel it is important to say that he doesn't try to sell you on unnecessary procedures. I have had a few procedures that I couldn't be happier with. I would trust him with my daughters’ faces. All of my friends that I have recommended to him are just as pleased with their experiences. I'll be a patient of his as long as he is in practice." J.E.
"My experience with Dr. Friedman was outstanding. I am so happy with my results. I couldn’t have asked for more. So knowledgeable and caring. Thank you for the happiness!" A.P.
"I wanted to choose a surgeon not only board certified but one who is passionate about his skill. As soon as I read Dr. Friedman’s bio which included his gift for sculpting and art, I knew that his passion was defined by the results of his skillful hands. The doctor, the nurses and the entire office staff captured my loyalty. The quality of care has been second to none and Dr. Friedman has been honest in his consultations. He has always determined appropriate procedures best for me. I appreciate his fine medical team." M.G.
"For years I had been contemplating breast augmentation. So I researched and visited another cosmetic surgeon who declared me an excellent candidate for augmentation. Then I had an initial consult with Dr. Friedman who did a breast examination and declared that he needed to see my most recent mammogram due to a lump on my breast (which had been medically monitored for years) before he would even consider me as an augmentation candidate. After viewing my mammogram/biopsy results, I was given the medical clearance for the augmentation procedure by Dr. Friedman and I have had excellent results from my surgery. From my experience I have determined that Dr. Friedman and his staff’s objective is that the patient’s health/well being be the most important criterion before and after elective surgery." D.L.
"I first met Dr. Friedman several years ago when he treated my daughter after she was bitten by our family pet. I was so taken by his calm, soothing approach with her that I felt if I was going to have something done myself, I wanted someone that my own child would trust. So I once again turned to Dr. Friedman, and I couldn't have been more happy with my procedure and the care that was given during the entire process—before, during, and after. I have since kept in touch with the office to see how everyone is doing because they are all such warm and caring individuals. I would and have recommended Dr. Friedman and his staff to many people for the above-and-beyond care they give to all of their patients." M.P.
"Dr. Friedman performed my breast lift and I found him to be an exceptional surgeon. He, the staff, and the anesthesiologist, were kind and professional with a high level of expertise. They went out of their way to accommodate my needs and to make my surgery a highly positive experience." L.H.
"I was self conscious about my sagging eyelids. I always tried to camouflage it with makeup. Now after my eyelid lift surgery done by Dr. Friedman, I am so thrilled with the natural results! I look and feel younger, and can go without makeup and still feel comfortable." T.M.
"I am so happy with my breast augmentation. You are the best surgeon, and I am so glad that my friend Carol gave me your information. You made me look so much better, and the results were better than what I was expecting… I also wanted to say that all of your staff were wonderful and made me feel very comfortable. Thanks again."

"I am a former International Model. Dr. Friedman and his staff are exceptional at what they do. I am the kind of person who is self conscious and skeptical about surgery. But when I met Dr. Friedman and his staff, I knew that they were there to get the job done right and made me feel comfortable. I had breast augmentation and now I feel confident in my swimsuit and clothes. Thanks, Dr. Friedman and staff." S.B.
"When considering a facelift. I chose carefully. I had recommendations from people who had surgery in the past, scoured the message boards on the internet and researched the doctor’s credentials. I visited about five doctors before deciding on Dr. Friedman. I made this choice logically on Dr. Friedman’s credentials and past client’s recommendations, and emotionally because I liked him personally. He took the time to explain procedures very clearly. Surgery is never easy but I was delighted with the results. I did not want to look like I had a facelift and my results are very natural. The heavy eyelids are gone and my neck looks terrific. Nowhere can you see any scars at all from the surgery. It has been 2 ½ years since the surgery and it was one of the best gifts I ever gave myself." N.H.
"Dr. Friedman and his staff made me feel so welcome and at ease. I was extremely nervous about my breast augmentation but everyone made me feel safe and comfortable and reassured me everything would turn out great, and they were right! I love how my results turned out. I have recommended the practice of Dr. Friedman to several friends, family, and co-workers. I would recommend Dr. Friedman to any and everyone. He is an amazing doctor with very much talent and patience. Thank you Dr. Friedman and staff for everything!" S.P.

"I’ve been a patient of Dr. Friedman’s since 2004. Dr. Friedman is a truly gifted surgeon whose artistic eye along with superior surgery skills and knowledge has given me a result beyond belief. Not only is he a gifted surgeon, but a warm person who truly cares for his patients. The team that supports him are equally warm and caring, making the overall experience a truly a positive one." J.F.
"Dr. Friedman truly changed my life. During my initial office visit, Dr. Friedman took the time to explain my options regarding the safest and best procedure for my special needs. I was impressed by Dr. Friedman’s credentials, experience, and honesty. The day of my procedure, I knew exactly what to expect. Dr. Friedman and his entire staff were caring, cautious, and professional. I was treated like family. I feel truly blessed to have had Dr. Friedman as my surgeon. I wish that I had done this procedure years ago. Thank you for improving my life!" P.A.
"I was referred to Dr. Friedman by a friend of mine. After the first consultation, I knew he was the right surgeon for me. He gave me honest suggestions regarding my procedure and made me feel comfortable and confident. I could not be happier with the results! Since then I have referred a friend who has also chosen Dr. Friedman for her procedure. Dr. Friedman was voted the best surgeon in Dallas area and his work definitely shows it." S.E.

"Dear Dr. Friedman, It's been two years since my surgery and I wanted to take a brief moment to thank you for the amazing result! I never could have imagined the drastic implications breast augmentation would have on my life. Although I looked forward to the physical change, I didn't realize how dramatically my self esteem and world view would improve. Since the surgery (technically 2 weeks) I've quit smoking, I've stopped agonizing over things outside of my control and I've conquered my fear of not being "good enough" to pursue medicine. I took the MCAT last month, my applications for medical school are in the mail and I'm looking forward to the continued growth I'll experience as a result of my new outlook on life. Thank you, Dr. Friedman! Thank you for the years of dedication and sacrifice that you spent so that you were in a position to provide me with such a satisfactory surgical experience."

"Dr. Friedman, I wanted to write you this not to say "Thank you" for doing a fantastic operation on my sister. She is very pleased to have you as her physician which then makes her family feel equally as pleased, particularly with her being so far away. Thank you again."
"Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Thank you for not ducking and running when you saw me! You are one of the only ones who have wanted to help me. I truly believe in miracles and God. Your hands and heart are very special gifts from God. He has great things ahead for you. PS: Karima, thanks for putting up with all my phone calls!"

"Dearest My Wonderful Dr. Worland, Even if the world ended today, I'd be completely saddened by the loss of life and our beautiful planet. But having the wonderful work you've done, at least I'd die with a smile on my face. I'm more complete now! My self esteem is 100%! My confidence is 100%! Oh the wonderful things a doctor can do! This is Great! I'm smiling my whole life through."
"My experience could not have been any better. Your staff is so helpful and knowledgeable, and the nurses were terrific. At last, I feel like the woman that I always hoped to be. My clothes fit better now and I feel great about my appearance. Thank you for your superb work!" K.B.
"Last summer my husband and I went on a fabulous vacation, but how was I to know there would be topless beaches? It sure didn't look like any woman there had breast-fed three children like me. I made up my mind to have my breasts 'rejuvenated', and had the exceptional fortune to choose Dr. Iverson as my doctor. Both my husband and I knew I was in good hands, and are both thrilled with the results. My husband was also very impressed by their consideration for him. He'd never heard of a doctor calling the night of surgery and so much personalized care. Dr. Iverson's staff is the best. They really care about you and your surgery, and actually return your calls. Guess where we're vacationing this year? Bingo, right on that same beach. And Dr. Iverson made it all possible. I sincerely thank him and his staff." M.B.
"I felt so self-conscious and embarrassed about my small breasts. I knew I would faint from just the examination. Dr. Iverson helped me understand that I'm not alone in those thoughts. I started out a little nervous, but he made it so easy and comfortable. He is very kind and patient, and you sense his honesty and integrity from the outset. I had heard he was a good surgeon, but you really never know. I now am proof that he is the best!! Thank you Dr. Iverson for helping me to buoy up my self-esteem and feel more feminine." E.W.
"I saw three other doctors before I met Dr. Iverson. His confidence, his experience, and his high-tech surgery center helped melt my fears away. My plastic surgery shopping days are over!! He also has the greatest staff'like going to visit your girlfriends. They're friendly, they laugh, they care, and they always remember your name!! But every detail is handled to the letter and very professionally. I love my breasts and love myself a little bit more. It is my pleasure to write this tribute." D.F.
"I came to see Dr. Iverson last fall for a breast augmentation. He spent a great deal of time with me, answered all my questions, and really established a feeling of comfort for me. I love my result and have sent several friends to him. He is easy to trust, he makes you feel safe. I can't thank him enough." J.P.
"I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Brill and his staff. I was comfortable in the office setting and my family was able to wait in the front office until my procedure was over. I gladly recommended him to all of my friends, two of whom have used him already. Great Job." J.V.

Dr. Brill is thorough and straightforward. The entire staff makes you feel like family. Thank You." B.T.
"Dear Dr. Brill, I had the best day ever of my life getting my eyes done. I just hope I didn’t say anything that I will regret later. However I was under the influence of your drugs. LOL!! I’m still having a hard time believing that was really you under that mask. But, the second you spoke, I knew it was you. I had so much fun that day I did not want to come home! I just hope your family knows what a great person you are and how much you are changing people’s lives everyday. You are a perfect person. No, sorry, God is! But, you are second. You just need to loosen up and be your real self, you are a wonderful man. You know, I would drive four hours everyday, work for free, just to be in your office environment. You and your staff make me feel like I’m part of a family. That is something I never had. Thank You." D.D.

I don’t know what we would have done had you not been at the pool – hopefully we didn’t disrupt any plans you had for the day.

You have done a beautiful job on my stomach and underarm! I tell everyone including strangers what a talented miracle worker you are! Thank you so much for making my body look so amazing! " A.C.
"Dr. Brill, They don’t make 20th Anniversary cards, but I had to find something to send. I’m sure you don’t remember the date, but on May 6, 1981, I was hit in the left eye with a bat during a soft ball game. They took me to AGH where you became my miracle! I can tell you I remember it very well, that is a few days later. Don’t remember May 6th, 7th, or 8th for that matter! But I’m still thankful for all you did to basically save my life – maybe not literally – but definitely cosmetically. (And people are still amazed at what you did!) I hope all has been well for and you and your family over the years. And just remember you have one patient who will always be grateful." S.B.
"Dr. Brill and office staff, Thank you so much for all you have done. You all are awesome. May the tranquility of the season be a special part of the holidays for you." K.G.

"I've never felt so comfortable and completely trusting with any Doctor as I do with Dr. Sykes. She was very interested in my problem, taking time to explain thoroughly. Big plus. It's refreshing to know a doctor who is friendly and also superb at her work and it gets better - she's female!"
"I would like to express my gratitude for doing such a wonderful job on my breast augmentation. You were so on the mark with size and placement. Most importantly it is in proportion to my body that it looks natural. I have received many compliments on my new figure. Thank you for providing me with such excellent medical care."

It is also terrific that my friends look at me and stare knowing something is different but it is so natural that they aren't sure what to say until I tell them...and they are absolutely amazed. Dr. Sykes is an extremely talented surgeon with a terrific eye for sculpturing the human body from head to toe!"
"Dear Dr. Zubowski, Thank you so much for the beautiful dish plant in the basket. It's just gorgeous. It was so thoughtful, such a lovely surprise and it is most appreciated. You have all been very caring and kind toward me during this difficult time. I can't say it's something I'd like to repeat very soon, but I am sure that as the swelling continues to go down, I will slowly become ecstatic at my new eyes and face. Thanks again for everything. See you..."
"Just a few words of thanks to you and your wonderful staff. It was by far the most pleasant experience I have ever had in and out of surgery. You and your staff are professional, kind, and caring. I have already told many people about you. Thank you so much."

Thank you for sending me the pretty plant. That was thoughtful."
"Dear Dr. Zubowski, Peggy delivered a lovely arrangement from you and the staff for which I thank you so much. It was very thoughtful of you. She asked who was the patient and when I said it was I, she gave you an A+ for your work, which you certainly deserve. She said she had had that procedure as I guess hers was a genuine critique. I'm feeling better each day and now that I'm over that "what was I thinking?," I'm also pleased. Thanks."

After having breast implants 14 years ago, I just had Dr. Singer perform a medial neck lift, fat injections and liposuction of numerous areas. My husbands remark after all my healing was " wow, Dr. Singer is a true artist! You look amazing!" That says it all :)" K.
"There are numerous cosmetic surgeons in southern California…some are substandard, some are fairly good, and then there is the rare surgeon who is a true artist - Dr. Robert Singer.

His staff is also very compassionate and pleasant to interact with. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." M.D.

"Everything was great! Your were very flexible around my time schedule. The whole team was great. Tiffany and Geri were wonderful, great nurses. Leslie was great too. And oh yes, the doctors were great too.”

My sister-in-law was kind enough to participate in all three of my consultations and we both overwhelmingly agreed that Dr. Grenley was our first choice. Dr. Grenley (& staff) made us so comfortable and was so clear about everything in our conversation. I would have no hesitation scheduling any type of procedure with Dr. Grenley and I look forward to spring for a tummy tuck!”
“Dr. Grenley and staff all A+! Very impressed with the kind, caring, thorough and professional care I was given. The perfect result speaks for itself.”

“Dr. Grenley has a personal approach and sound advice. He quickly understood what my goals were.”
“I have had 4 other surgeons operate on my breasts, with rather poor results. Dr. Grenley perfected them even though there was a great deal of contracture representing a surgical challenge. I shall always be grateful.”

"Being my first surgery, it really helped that the entire staff was nothing but kind, helpful and fun. Thanks for a wonderful experience."
"I don't see how the service could be improved. Of the four surgeons I visited, Dr. Grenley's demeanor, explanation and expertise were far superior. Not to mention the quality and kindness of his staff and comfort of the facilities. Altogether, I had one of the most reassuring medical experiences of my life."
"You do a terrific job! There's a clear team work commitment and you are very respectful of patients. Dr. Grenley has integrity and is honest as well as having excellent skills. When I came in alone to have my procedures, you all made me feel safe and well cared for. Thanks."

"I really appreciate the time spent to explain each step of the process and felt that everyone from Dr. Grenley, Sue, and Leslie all listened to my concerns. I felt that everyone was genuinely concerned about me as an individual and not just another patient. That was very important to me. Thanks!"
"Thank you all for making my experience so wonderful and for being so kind and patient. From [business] issues to ferry schedules, I was so touched by your efforts. It is so rare to receive service on that scale. [Another doctor] told me you were the best – a referral without hesitation – he was so right! Thank you for your work and for sharing your gift. You have a great staff too. I am so happy."
"I couldn’t be any happier with the results. Dr. Grenley you are an amazing surgeon. From the consultation to the day of surgery, you and your staff made me feel very safe and comfortable. It was a very big decision for me and I’m so happy I decided to go through with it. Thank you, thank you."
"I never dreamed I could be this happy with my results. You are so talented and kind – it really makes for an unbeatable combination in a plastic surgeon. I’m glad I shopped around until I found you. Looking at your after photos, along with your detailed explanation of the procedure and specifics of my case convinced me that you were the right surgeon for me. You’ve changed my life for the better and I thank you everyday!" M.M.

"I love the fact that I only have once scar from my breast augmentation! And the fact that it’s hidden in my belly button…well, that makes it even better! My husband can’t believe how quickly I was back on my feet after my surgery. I had my surgery on a Thursday and was at the Buck’s game on Sunday cheering them on." P.A.
"My heart will always be grateful to Dr. Kearney for what he’s done to help improve my self image. Since my facelift, I love who I see everyday when I look at myself. I feel refreshed and more alive.

"Dr Kearney and his staff were always so nice and helpful to me! I really felt comfortable with Dr. Kearney and I was impressed with how long he spent with me, answering all of my questions. It’s been over 1 year since my liposuction and I feel like I have much more confidence. Now I feel good when I go to the gym to work out, and when I’m at the beach with friends." L.O.
“Dr. Kearney was patient, kind and really took his time to explain the procedure to me. He did not rush. Dr. Kearney really stood out in comparison to my other 4 consultations that I went on. When I met Dr. Kearney, I knew I could stop searching for a surgeon. Words cannot express how I feel!” J.L.

“My friend looked great and she had done the footwork of interviewing other doctors. Once I connected with your office, I felt welcome and comfortable. All the women are friendly and informative, professional and helpful. Dr. Kearney was down to earth as well as all of the above. Your office is in sync and it all feels good.” P.M.
"Dear Dr. Jensen, Even though I've been in a hurry to get "out" of your office my last three visits, does not mean I don't appreciate the "great "job you have done... I love my nose! It now looks very similar to how it looked before I started playing basketball! Thank you "so" much. You're a GREAT surgeon!!!"
"Dear Doctor Jensen, I am so pleased with the results of the surgery you performed on my face and neck. Of course I expected an improvement, but the results of your work have really exceeded my expectations - You did a wonderful job on my breasts in the past, but if you hadn't the world couldn't see them!"
"Dr. Jensen, There are no words that can truly extend my gratitude to you for all you have done for me. You are the most skilled surgeon I have ever known and truly care, also. I have had 3 surgeries from you in less than 3 weeks, yet I have no pain and am healing so fast - which I know is due to your expertise in surgery, (not me). I am very happy with the results of my cosmetic surgeries, (of really putting me back together), you have done and you have made me feel better about myself. The mess I believe I had in my left breast from biopsies done in NH, you have taken care of (as since the biopsies in July), I have been sick/nauseous and in pain where the incisions were made - until you fixed me up and now I feel great, I am without pain because of you!) I thank God that I came to Oregon when I did and found you! Thank you & your staff so very much!"
"Dear Dr. Jensen, I just want to express my deepest appreciation on you correcting my breasts; due to breast cancer... I am fine and free of cancer and am healthy & love life so much! God put your certain magic to reform my breasts and gave me back my self esteem! I am so grateful for you! I pray that God will bless your mind, body and spirit, soul and hands to help all the people you are in contact with - please heal them like you did for me! If there's anything I may do for you please let me know. Once again... Thank you!"
"Dear Dr. Jensen, I wanted to say "THANK YOU" for doing such an amazing job on my breast reduction. I couldn't be happier with the results. You have made me feel like a brand new woman and I will be forever grateful! Thanks again and keep up the good work." M.R.
"Dear Dr. Jensen, The first thing my granddaughter said to me is "Look Grandma, my owie is all gone, the Doctor made it go away" Thank you!" D.
"Dear Dr. Jensen, As soon as I met you I felt confident in your strength, experience, and heart. This confidence proved itself to be true, your staff; Courtney, Amy Donna, etc, showed amazing patience, warmth, support and kindness along with experts with answering all my questions. I joyfully entered the surgery room; from the moment I awake from surgery I felt the most minimal discomfort I could have ever imagined. Even in the midst of slight bruising barely hurts. I am 58 years old next week, and the old heaviness from extra skin is gone. My eyelids look great, your generosity and skill have deeply touched my heart and soul. I have enjoyed the humor between us. Thank you! I am truly grateful."
"Dr. Jensen, With your expert reconstruction after surgery for breast cancer in 2000, my self esteem has been restored. Other women ask for details and I sing praises for you. God had a hand in this - I am a survivor. Your serious times coupled with a sense of humor during treatment makes you a unique surgeon. Thanks also to Yvonne and your delightful staff. Ps. Hope you enjoy the lake photograph."
"Dr. Jensen and Staff~ I want to thank you for the wonderful care I received before, during and after my recent surgery. Having worked in the medical field for over 30 years, I appreciate being cared for as I try to treat my patients - all of you do a great job! Dr. Jensen - a friend I work with told me that she had heard "you are the genius of plastic surgery in Southern Oregon" - I have to agree! And Thank you for the beautiful roses and very nice robe - what a perfect touch for a great experience."
"Dr. Jensen, Thank you so much for your kindness and care. I am so pleased with the work you have done. You've taken away apart of pain, caused by other doctors and given me back my self esteem. I'm very happy. Thank you, Thank you. Ps. Your staff is wonderful."
"To Dr. Jensen & the Wonderful Staff, Thank you for the warm smiles, caring & informative support and for going beyond the expected boundaries to lift my spirits toward the new journey that lies ahead. Many thanks."
"Dr. Jensen, Thank you for my new tummy, I am overwhelmed with the results. Your staff was a delightful experience and so helpful when I had any questions. I really appreciated the beautiful roses beyond words. Keep up the great work."
"Dr. Jensen & Staff, I would like to express my appreciation to all of you for the wonderful care I received before, during and after my surgery. I was very nervous and terribly self-conscious about having a breast reduction done. You and everyone in your office have been so friendly and supportive, which was a great relief and comfort to me most of all I am pleased with the end result. I was also very surprised by how much better I now feel both physically and "mentally". I have taken advantage of this new found self confidence and joined a weight loss program. So once again. Thank you!"
"Dr. Jensen, I will always be so thankful for all that you have done for me. Everyone also on your staff deserves a big compliment. Thank you to you all! Everyone is so nice which makes me feel so comfortable whenever I'm there to have something done. I will continue to seek your services because I have all the confidence in your expertise. You are the best! Thank you again."

"Dr. Schwartz, I wanted to thank you for all your hard work on me. Your professionalism & skill quality truly is amazing. I'm so thankful for the "new improved me" everyday. You! Thanks for everything." L.
"Doctor Schwartz, I just want to let you know how happy I am that I chose you to be my plastic surgeon. Before our initial consultation, I researched many plastic surgeons in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, as well as in Austin, San Antonio, and Houston; and no one impressed me as much as you did! You are so skilled at what you do, and the aesthetic results of your work are outstanding. Not only are you a fabulous doctor, but an artist as well. I am also extremely impressed with you and your employees on a personal level. You and your staff are so able, that whenever I'm there, I immediately feel as if I'm talking with old friends. The warm office atmosphere is so welcoming that it seems as if everyone there is a "family". I find myself looking forward to my appointments so I can see everyone. I also want to mention how deeply I appreciate your willingness to accommodate my schedule by offering to perform my breast augmentation on a Friday. At the time, I didn't realize that this would cause you to have to give up your Saturday in order for us to have our follow-up appointment. Your willingness to sacrifice part of your weekend for the sake of one of your patients was very touching to me. Not everyone would go above and beyond the call of duty as you so willingly have done. I am going to recommend you to as many people as I can. I have absolute confidence that in sending people to you, they will receive the utmost attention, best care, and most spectacular results possible." K.
"Dear Dr. Schwartz, Thanks for being my favorite doctor. You and your staff were great. Please accept this gift and go someplace fun! See Ya!" D.
"Thank you for giving me stitches. From your shiner girl."
"Dr. Schwartz, I'd like to thank you for your consultation. You thoroughly answered my questions. I have great confidence in your ability to do a competent job on the augmentation procedure. I hope you are able to find room in the upcoming schedule for this procedure. I'd greatly appreciate it. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me." M.
"Dear Dr. Schwartz, I would like to Thank you for the excellent treatment I received from you, following my recent car accident. I am very grateful for the personal attention you granted me as a patient. I am so pleased with how my face has begun to heal - again, thank you very much." K.
"Dr. Rob Schwarz, Thanks a Million!" J.
"I have had work done in two other offices. Yours by far is the best."
"The professionalism, efficiency, and helpfulness were impressive. Dr. Graper’s honesty and integrity is greatly appreciated."
"I love Dr.Graper’s honesty about what he can/cannot do or what will look good and what won’t, rather than telling me he can do whatever I want and it will come out great."
"I especially liked Dr. Graper’s demeanor and bedside manner. I also appreciate when a physician is not afraid to give you good advice about what looks and feels best for his patients."
"Dr. Graper was wonderful. He totally gained my trust (and my mother’s). He was completely honest and didn’t promise miracles."
"I couldn’t be more pleased from start to finish. Everyone from the office staff to nursing staff and Dr. Graper was wonderful. I’m extremely happy with my new breasts. It’s made an amazing difference. Thank you!"
"Knowing now what I do, I wouldn’t wait 20 years to have my breast implants! Dr. Graper and his staff were great!"
"I went to several doctors to see their practice, process and staff. None compared to the level of service Dr. Graper’s office offered. That’s why I chose to have my facelift done with Graper Cosmetic Surgery."
"It was the best decision I’ve ever made and I’m very pleased with the outcome of my new breast implants!"
"I felt extremely comfortable having my surgery done by Dr. Graper. He was very professional and very caring. The staff was the most courteous and helpful group I have ever dealt with."
"Superb friendliness by everyone and especially Dr.Graper who was very generous with his time. He came across very patient focused and very courteous which was unlike two other consultations with other plastic surgeons."
"Dr.Graper made a great impression with his knowledge, exam and the way he presented himself—calm, very thorough and to the point."
"Dr. Graper put me at ease right from the start. Because of my age and skin tone, Dr.Graper thought abdominoplasty would work better for me (than liposuction) and made me re-think the whole situation…thank you…."
"This is my second time for choosing Dr. Graper for my surgery!"
"I thought I was going to feel really nervous talking about breast enhancement, but the entire staff made me feel very much at ease."
"I am excited about the rhinoplasty I had with Dr. Graper. The imaging (prior to surgery) was exactly what I was looking to accomplish."
"I felt the consultation with Dr. Graper was one of the best I have had…be proud of your services."
"There is a common thread that runs through every area of your office and staff…it is positively exceptional. I like the straightforward warmth and welcome from all the staff and Dr. Graper."
"Excellent, caring, considerate, responsive, articulate, competent and knowledgeable staff which to me is a great reflection on such a wonderful professional, Dr. Graper. Thank you all for your commitment to excellence!"
"I would not consider any other doctor for my eye lift surgery and have not and will not shop around….a very caring and professional group…."
"I’ve been to only one other cosmetic surgery location in Charlotte but you guys top the charts! Everyone in the office from the front desk to the nursing staff is so warm and friendly and I love the feeling I have when I’m there. Love, love, love Dr. Graper! It’s like I’m the only patient and I feel so special."
"Dr. Graper and his staff were incredible! Not one complaint! His office staff is bubbly, friendly and exceedingly helpful. His bedside manner was wonderful. He has a great sense of humor and really enjoys making you look the best you can look! – Thanks Dr. G!!"
A Message from one Doctor to Dr. Graper: "... how pleased I am with the results of my wife's surgery. She has never been more comfortable in her own skin than she is now. I was hesitant at first for her to have the surgery due to the risk of possible complications and uncertainty as to what the outcome would be. The first couple weeks weren't too much fun, but I can honestly say that the surgery was without a doubt the best thing I have helped do for my wife in a very long time. I have never seen my wife beam with confidence like she does. Your talent and skill as a surgeon and charming bedside manner have given her a new outlook that nothing else could have come close to. I will enthusiastically refer my friends and my patients to you for their cosmetic surgical needs without reservation..."
“Before I saw Dr. Anderson, I was convinced that my breasts were beyond repair. I am so amazed that he could change my body and my life so much. I thank Dr. Anderson from the bottom of my heart.” S.N.
“Two of my friends convinced me to go see Dr. Anderson, and I am so happy that they did! My facelift looks so natural that everyone kept asking why I looked so fresh and happy. I’m so proud of my new look that I don’t even mind telling people I have had surgery! I am telling everyone to go see Dr. Anderson and his team!” M.W.
“No amount of sit-ups could have gotten me to look this good! My stomach is flatter than it was before my children, and I now catch my husband of 20 years staring at me! I couldn’t be happier with my results!” K.S.
“Thank you so much for making me love my body again! Having children took a toll on my body, but not my fun personality. I finally look the way I feel!” A.A.
“Dr. Anderson, I just wanted to thank you for everything you have done for me. You and your staff have been so supportive and helpful through my entire surgery, and I don’t know if I could have gotten through it without you. I feel like a new person, not only because I have changed the nose I have always hated, but because I now have so much more self confidence. Thank you again for making this possible for me!” J.L.
“I am so happy with my results! I was afraid to get a breast lift, but now I know that Dr. Anderson knows exactly what he is doing. My breasts look completely natural, the scars are barely visible, and now my clothes fit perfectly without a huge bra to hold everything in place. I couldn’t have asked for anything better!” S.J.
“I had always felt that my lips are too thin, but then Dr. Anderson injected them with Juvederm. I love my lips! It didn’t hurt a bit, and now I can wear lipstick without feeling like I am drawing attention to my worst feature!” K.D.
Dr. Rothfield, I want to take this opportunity to Thank you so much for taking me on as a patient so quickly. I am very pleased with the wonderful job that you did. Thanks to you & your staff and have a wonderful day.

Beverly, I just wanted to Thank you for being so kind & patient with me. May God bless you richly. Thanks so much!
Dear Dr. Rothfield, I'll never forget the day in the parking lot where I flagged you down. I picked you because I liked your dedication. Many of my choices in doctors I picked this way. Anyhow, after this 4th surgery with you, I want to say thank you for everything, your skill, your kindness and monetary courtesy. After 20 years of chronic pain syndrome, I never felt like a victim on the inside, but my surgical improvements have allowed me to feel as good on the outisde as I do on the inside. I'm really proud of myself for my contributions like eating well, exercising, and paying attention to my body. Like I said, so long as there is an again process, I'll be in your life! Sincerely
Dear Dr. Rothfield, I would just like to say thank you very much! You made my dreams come true. You're amazing. I'm so glad I chose you. God bless
Dr. Rothfield & Staff, I want to thank you all for your support. Thanks for giving me something I had very "little" of. I love the "new" me. Dr. Rothfield, you did a great job! Thanks again!
Dr. Rothfield, There are few words that can express my gratitude for everything that you have done for me. Many blessings to you and your family. Thank you
Dr. Rothfield, I guess every 10 years or so you get a very "unique" or "predictable" patient like me. I was thinking of putting my pad and paper to good use and "writing the top 10 reasons why I am glad I chose you as my Dr." - Then I decided to go with a simple Thank you card. I just wanted you to know I appreciate everything you did for me. You spent a lot of time reassuring a neurotic woman. Bust most of all I know you took a lot of time and effort in transforming me into the new me. Too bad there aren't more doctors like you.
Dr. Rothfield, To a wonderful surgeon - Thank you so much for doing such a phenomenal job on my breasts! I'm extremely happy with the results! This surgery was something I had been waiting for 15 years, and I am so glad I waited this long to find an unbelievable doctor such as yourself! You have changed my life forever! Thank you! Sincerely Ps. Please thank your staff as well; as they were extremely helpful and supportive!
Dr. Rothfield, I want to thank you for making one of my dreams come true. My prayers shall always be that your practice would continue to flourish & make an impact in the lives of others. May God bless you & your family. Thank you.
Dear Dr. Rothfield and Beverly~ I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you again for everything. You were both so friendly and pleasant to me at each visit. I was very upset about having my "unplanned & unwanted" surgery, but you both made everything so easy and painless. I appreciate all of your time and patience. You are a great Doctor and assistant, and I am so happy that I chose to come 'to you'! I have referred you to everyone I know! "Thank you"!
Dear Dr. Rothfield, Just want to Thank you for the professionalism, commitment, dedication and interest you displayed in taking care of me. May God richly bless you.
To: Dr. Rothfield & Staff, Thanks for the wonderful job, I am happy for the results. Special thanks to your staff who is very helpful & knowledgeable; who I thought was an asset to the business. All the Best

Dr. Rothfield's lucky to have such a great staff to go with a great doctor. Thanks again

Your work has been so instrumental and important in regenerating a new woman in me, reborn with renewed vitality, motivations, self-confidence, and assurance. It is amazing to experience all the evolving within that occurs from changes made on my outer physical person, appearance. My life has literally been turned around amazingly and wonderfully-a new beginning-and you were a huge part of that, the beginning of it all. Your surgery center is the finest, most excellent I have ever seen or been a part of; your staff incredible-professional, talented, caring, and so supportive of a person especially one experiencing cosmetic surgery for the first time. What a wonderful experience for me it all was-nothing but delight, inspiring…yes…because of you. So I am again at loss for the right words and just hope you somehow know what an incredible journey you have provided for me with all you are and what you have done."

Your new facility is beautiful, and all of your staff is wonderful. Ya'll did an outstanding job!" C.M.
"I had Liposuction in June 2000; it was the best thing that I could have ever done for myself. Now, I am three sizes smaller, plus I can buy the more fashionable clothes that fit me. My body is more natural looking and proportionate with the rest of my body. I can't thank you enough. I'm glad that I chose you to do my surgery; I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. You took your time and answered all my questions, and let me know what kind of results that I could expect realistically. Your staff was very efficient in taking care of me before and after my surgery. I was nervous, but you guys made me very comfortable, and eased my mind. Thanks a million. Can't thank you enough." N.D.
"Dr. Cohen, Just wanted to take a chance to thank you for EVERYTHING that you have done for me! Words can not describe what you have done for me while going through such a horrible accident.

Don't forget about the "sympathy" discount! You can't get rid of me that easy!!" A.H.
"Dr. Cohen, When I started the process of deciding whether I would get plastic surgery, I know finding the right surgeon would determine if I would go forward with the surgery. You made me feel at ease and answered all of my questions even though that was a laborious task. I very much appreciate the time you spent explaining everything. I am not easy to impress, but you impressed me with your skill and attention to detail. I think you did a beautiful job, and I feel completely natural and comfortable with my results. I love your staff and they took excellent care of me through every step of the way. I have been through a lot of trials over the last few years and improving my appearance has been a step towards feeling at peace with myself. I am very grateful there are surgeons who can offer help to individuals like myself who want to impress their outward appearance. My surgery has made me feel more confident and beautiful and for this I am truly grateful." C.
"Dr. Cohen & Staff, Thank you so much for the excellent care. The best decision I have made was to choose you as a plastic surgeon for the breast reduction surgery. The Pre and Post Op care were great. Dr. Curtis the anesthesiologist was superb. Thanks to my first hand experience with your medical care and artistic talent I will certainly refer my own patients to you with total confidence. Wishing you the best." L.M.
"Dr. Cohen, I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional care you have given my wife, Karen, with her recent breast augmentation surgery. Karen and I are extremely impressed and satisfied with the results. You have given us every reason to feel confident in your knowledge and skill as a surgeon. Your dedication to your profession shows through in all you have done. Thank you for a wonderful experience." R.M.
"Dr. Cohen, I don't even know where to begin to thank you. You've given me such an amazing and incredibly gracious gift. I never could have asked for so much. I am so thankful for all that you have done for me! It's been quite an amazing journey over the past two years! It all started with meeting you, and finding that connection with someone I knew I could trust and only had my best interest at heart. You've helped me find the beautiful, confident wife and mother that has been hiding within me for so many years! I am forever grateful and truly a fan for life! I absolutely LOVE my results! You are a genius and a true artist. Thank you so very much for everything!" C.A.
"Dr. Cohen: After my initial consultation with you, I knew that you were the right surgeon for me. Your kindness and knowledge put me at ease as you answered all of my questions and discussed my concerns. I appreciate the cautious approach you took towards my surgery in assuring my overall health and happiness. I cannot express how grateful I am for the wonderful job you did. I am very pleased with the results. I feel like a new woman!" C.S.
"Dr. Cohen & Staff I just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU for everything you've done for me. Everyone has been so patient with all my questions and has gone out of their way to make sure I'm treated like an individual. I'm constantly receiving compliments on my new body and still can't believe my eyes when I look in the mirror. You truly are the best, hands down. You will always have my loyal business, should I decide to have any other procedure done in the future." A.K.
"Dear Dr. Cohen, Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to see me! I really appreciate it; it makes the world of difference to know that I have kind people like you when I need it. Thank you again." J.C.
"Dear Dr. Cohen, There are no words to express how truly grateful I am for everything you have done for me. I never thought it would be possible to be any happier, but again, your work has left me in awe. Not only have you provided an amazing working environment as your employee, but you have also given me the confidence to feel comfortable in my own skin. A life long battle that because of you is now conquered. I joke around and say, I have the most "real" fake breasts in town now! Once again, you have shown such kindness and professionalism and I will be reminded of that every time I look in the mirror. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you!" M.
"Dr. Cohen, Just a thank you for taking such good care of C. and for doing such a beautiful job! Thank you also for taking the time to check me out after my burn accident. Your generosity was much appreciated! Thanks again." J.B.

"Dr. Cohen, Mary, Terry and Courtney, Thank you for all your hospitality. The whole office staff always made me feel so special. Dr. Cohen, you have the best bedside manner of any doctor that I have met. Thank you. Again, thank you for all your patience, expertise and caring." R.R.
"Dear Dr. Cohen, Thank you so very much for all you did for me and my son. We know that you are accustomed to performing much more elaborate procedures - but to us, it was no small feat! We put our baby in your hands and you became the silver lining in our black cloud... You are a gem and a very special person. Thank you for caring." E., C. & Baby E.H.
"Dear Mary, Just a little note to thank you for all your help! Without you we would not have been able to put our baby in such good hands!! You are Wonderful!" A.B.
"Dr. Cohen, Thank you just doesn't seem to be enough. The ear continues to heal and looks great. The rest of our time in Arizona was wonderful. It meant a lot to me that you agreed to see me. Now Dr. Demas owes you big time!" A.P.
"Dear Dr. Cohen, I don't know where to begin to Thank you for all you have done for me. This was truly a dream come true for me and I cam so thrilled with the results.

Wishing you a new year of health and peace." P.R.
"Dear Dr. Cohen, Thank you so much for taking care of my daughter. I don't think my husband and I realized how important this was to her.

"Thank you so much for all that you do, my family and I feel blessed to have met such a kind, caring, and amazing group of people. I really appreciate all of your kindness and help.

With Many Thanks!" S. & G.J.

"Dr. Cohen, I just wanted to thank you for "everything" that you have done for me! Words can not describe what you have done for me while going through such a horrible accident. Your true compassion & sincerity has done more for me that you'll ever know! I consider myself very lucky to have you as my Doctor! what can I say, you are the best of the BEST! "Thanks again"! Ps. Don't forget about the 'sympathy discount' - you can't get rid of me that easy." A.H.
"Dr. Cohen, You were very kind & gentle to a little girl who'd had a rough day. If you always keep that bedside manner, you will be truly blessed. Again, Thank you & God Bless. Ps. Surgery went well, a little rougher than we thought, but she is doing great!"
"Mary, We wanted to Thank you for everything! You have gone above & beyond in making sure I have been recovering well.

Warmest Regards." A & J.L.
"Dear Dr. Cohen, Thank you for making a difference! We will always remember you and be grateful." K.
"Hi Mary, I just saw Dr. Cohen's "Not Vanity Surgery" article on the website. I must say it is wonderful and so very true. I can't tell you how many hours I spent in prayer wrestling with my decision to have the augmentation and lift. I was so programmed, from my conservative upbringing, that plastic surgery was just for vanity reasons. I am so very happy that I finally came to the right decision and did what was right for me, regardless of what others might think. It has made an unbelievable difference in my attitude toward myself. It has made me love myself again and recommit myself to exercise and living a healthy life, which in turn, sets a great example for my kids. I had given up on myself prior to surgery. I have no doubt that I was "led" to your office. In all my research, something kept bringing me back to Dr. Cohen's website, until I finally set up a consultation. I had seen one other PS (whom I had used to remove a mole on my nose a year earlier), prior to meeting Dr. Cohen. I left his office feeling very unsettled. He just gave me the willies. LOL! I knew from the minute I met Dr. Cohen that he was the PS for me. I was very comfortable in his presence and I certainly didn't feel that with the other surgeon I had seen. Anyway, I said all that to say this. I just wanted to thank you guys again for everything! I'll see you next month at my post-op visit. P.S. Tell Dr. Cohen that I still maintain that I am a small C cup. LOL! ;)" C.A.
"Dr. Cohen, Seven months ago my face was seriously cut from above the eye to the lower jaw. In places the wound was both severely fragmented and deep. I expected to have a lasting highly noticeable scar. Instead, your three hours of Saturday morning surgery at the hospital have left only minimal scarring which, unless someone looks closely, goes largely unnoticed. I have appreciated not only the skill with which you repaired my wound, but the weekend follow-up and your friendly, likable personality. I also appreciated the friendliness of your staff." G.K.
"Dr. Cohen is one of the most professional and dedicated doctors I've ever met. I not only feel well cared for but he always shows true sincere compassion. Having suffered a serious injury due to an auto accident, Dr. Cohen was able to do his "magic" and made what could have been a horrible life long scar, nearly unnoticeable!! There are no words to describe his talents and professionalism. He is truly the best of the best! I have, and would recommend him to anyone!" A.
"My choice of Dr. Cohen as a plastic surgeon was one of luck. I was in the ER, a Pit Bull had torn my arm up, and he was the physician on call. So we did not have the luxury of choosing how exactly we were going to proceed, as in a planned plastic surgery. We had to address what the dog had destroyed. Ultimately, I had to have two surgeries to restore my arm. Dr. Cohen explained everything before hand, gave me alternate approaches, and answered all of my questions. He is very careful and meticulous. I am more than pleased with his work. He did an excellent job and I am very happy with the results! I would recommend him very enthusiastically to anyone needing plastic surgery." S.M.
"Dr. Bob Brueck is one of the most caring physicians I know. He and his staff are compassionate and competent. It is easy to see that Dr. Brueck’s priorities include providing outstanding service and making sure patients are comfortable. As a survivor of breast cancer, I went to Dr. Brueck because of his excellent reputation and skills. My first breast reconstruction needed to be done for a second time because of how poor the outcome was for my reconstruction after my double mastectomy. When I went for my second reconstruction, the entire staff including Chi his long time assistant made me feel completely at ease. I went into surgery confident that all would go well with the knowledge that he and his staff had my best interests in mind. They were with me every step of the way and I am extremely pleased with the results and beyond any of my dreams I feel better and look great." S.K.B.
"Dr. Brueck has made me feel into a million bucks-having the breast augmentation w/silicone gel implants has been GREAT and rewarding for me. I have no complications with him and his staff has been very caring and professional. I have women jealous of me and men stare. It’s a great feeling plastic surgery is still surgery, but it’s very rewarding!!" L.S.
"Dear Dr. Brueck, I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you for the procedure that you did on me. I am very satisfied. I could not have asked for a better Doctor to perform my surgery. Dr. Brueck has the best bedside manner that I have ever seen in a Doctor, and I have had several surgeries. Chi the nurse that has been there through all of my procedures has been wonderful she made me feel so comfortable and at ease. She has the best personality I have ever seen from a nurse. I am very satisfied. I appreciate everything that this office has done for me. My self esteem is great. Again, Thank you so very much." G.B.
"My right breast seemed to be an issue within eight years that I had saline implants. I was not comfortable with the prior plastic surgeon due to the fact that his office was so disorganized and I did not receive a good comfort level with the lack of concern from the surgeon with my situation. My husband and I made an appointment with Dr. Robert J. Brueck M.D. in regard to the deflation of my right breast implant. The minute we walked into his cosmetic surgery center, we were treated with great care and did not wait to see the doctor. Dr. Brueck greeted us with such confidence and happiness within himself. I spoke with his staff on the same day. They seemed to be happy working for Dr. Brueck and there didn't seem to be a "turnover" of staff. The staff is very knowledgeable, show deep concern for their clients/patients and we received a good feeling that they were proud to work with Dr. Brueck. It was important to Dr. Brueck to get to know us and explore the options that would make me happy first before anything else was discussed. Dr. Brueck spoke to us in great detail on how we can repair my problem. He was very familiar with the procedure that needed to be performed. He did not try to recommend a procedure that I did not need. He was very confident that he could help us. Prior to meeting Dr. Brueck, we visited three other plastic surgeons in the Ft. Myers area. We did not receive a genuine concern, reliability and confidence we felt necessary to have the procedure done. We happily chose Dr. Brueck to perform the procedure that I needed. His office handled everything. He introduced us to Judy, Patient Coordinator. She helped us with the final decision to have silicone implants verses saline implants. Dr. Brueck was confident with either product. Judy handled all the warranty manufacturer paperwork with the implant company in regard to my deflated implant and other breast implant. She took care of the warranty refund on the surgery center. She set up all my appointments for my pre-op, surgery and after surgery appointments. She communicated with me through out the entire process and never made me wait for her call. It was so easy. I just had to show up. She made sure everything was taken care of and that I was happy before I paid for my procedure. My procedure went like clockwork. Everything we anticipated occurred with great ease. My breasts are symmetrical with my body. They are setting right where they should be. They look and feel natural. They are perfect. There is no doubt in my mind that I had the best medical doctor perform my surgery. I know that I do not have to interview anyone else if I decide to have any other procedure done in the future. He is the best. Go gators!".... C.W.
"Dear Dr. Brueck, Words cannot express my gratitude for my recent lunchtime lift and breast surgery. I am so happy with the results. They just keep getting better. I can't thank you enough for your guidance and expertise. I had interviewed with other doctors in the area as I was new to Naples. I came across your website, and that's when I made an appointment. From the moment I walked in the door I was treated with great respect. During our initial consultation, I felt absolutely no pressure from you what so ever. I felt that you wanted me to choose a surgeon based on who I was most comfortable with. I felt that you were there for me to ask any questions and give any information I needed, to make a very informed decision. I never once felt rushed or persuaded. The office staff was the same way. Judy helped me contact Mentor on my ruptured saline implant. They also did all the paper work for Mentor in order to help with the costs of the replacement. I had no idea I could change from the gel to the saline without extra scars underneath. I had been told differently by other Doctors. My slight scars are in the exact same location and I can't even see them. You have such a gift Dr. Brueck!!! My original surgery was performed in another state. I had always felt the implants were too big for my body. I could feel them inside from day one. I had quit activities I so enjoyed because of that. What you gave me was my freedom back. I now can enjoy the sporting activities that used to be limited. My mini face lift that I hadn't really planed on has done so much for my self image. Others may not have noticed the unevenness of my skin from old acne scars, but I did!! There was a hurt inside when I would look in the mirror. That is gone now thanks to you. Chi, a great big Thanks to you as well, for all you love and support along the journey Your pricing doesn't go with your amazing work and expertise. I found it to be very reasonable considering my other options. What can I say? Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and all your staff....." Love, C.C.
"For the first time at age 34 I able to find a pair of pants that fit both my hips and waist. That happened the day I had liposuction for my saddlebags. Not only could I tuck my blouse in with confidence, it also took that feeling away that my hips were the first thing people noticed when the met me. Nothing is better then that feeling of confidence!" P.L.
"When I got into my 30's, I consistently looked tired and had problems applying my make-up. Being a lover of eyeshadow and looking fresh, I had to find a solution. I went to Dr. Brueck for a consult. He recommended an upper blepharoplasty and I proceeded. Now years later, I have eyelids again. I still put my make-up on and look well-rested everyday. No one even knows that I had surgery." C.M.
"Hello, Dr. Brueck. You did breast augmentation on me back in February and I am very happy with it. You changed my life. I look forward to seeing you again for my tummy tuck. Thank you so much." J.S.
"Dear Dr. Brueck: I wanted to drop you a note to thank you so much for the breast augmentation you did for me. It is beautiful. No only has it given me more confidence, it has changed my life. I also wanted to thank your staff for their kindness, courtesy and professional service. Thanks again. " D.P.
"When deciding who I wanted to perform my breast augmentation, you and your staff stuck out like a sore thumb! You’re not only very experienced as a surgeon, but you are also very personable; a key factor which appeared during my consultation. Even when I called to ask questions your polite and friendly staff gave me great customer service and information. Thank you for my new look, you truly are an artist, and can masterfully sculpt anything into beauty." L.
"From the moment I chose you as my plastic surgeon, I knew I made the right decision. But since my surgery in September, I realize that I’m also grateful and lucky that you are caring as well. Words cannot express how thankful I am for your kindness and work you did on me. You went beyond what most surgeons might not have done. Thank you so much for being a great doctor and for taking good care of me." M.
"Dr Winslow, Thank you for squeezing me into your busy schedule because I knew I was in trouble and you confirmed my intuition. It looks as though we will be connected for quite some time, with your knowledge and experience and my strength I know there’s hope. You are very compassionate and kind and being a perfectionist only adds to your many talents. For the endless times you have taken, even on your days off, to tend to my wounds, I thank you from the bottom of my heart." R.
"Words cannot express how thankful I am for your kindness and work you did on me. You went beyond what most surgeons might not have done. Thank you so much for being a great doctor and for taking good care of me." M.
"Dr. Winslow and his lovely staff, I cannot thank you enough for what you have done. You’ve made me feel absolutely excited every time I’ve looked in the mirror. You’re a genius. I’m so happy I chose you as my surgeon, and I’ve had a wonderful experience since my consultation day. All of your staff is so friendly and hospitable; I’d recommend you in a heartbeat!! Thank you so much. " D.
"My name is S. and I highly recommend Dr. Robert Colgrove for breast augmentation. I had no bruising after my surgery and my scars are barely noticeable. I received excellent care from the nurses and office staff, which made my surgery and recovery so much easier. I was prepared for everything that happened and there were no surprises because I was prepped thoroughly before my surgery as to what to expect. Dr. Colgrove is a wonderful, professional plastic surgeon that I would highly recommend, as well as use again in the future." S.
"I had two prior breast augmentations before Dr. Colgrove. Each time, I was not completely happy with my results. I never had cleavage, and there was a noticeable gap between my breast. Dr. Colgrove did for me what no other surgeon had been able to do. I now have great cleavage without push up bras. The private surgical center and staff made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I would recommend Dr. Colgrove and his staff to anyone!" J.C.
"He is super nice and the staff is amazing! They are so professional and go out of their way to make sure everything is to your liking. I would go back again and again!" T,

"I want to take this opportunity to say thank you and to tell you how extremely impressed I am with the entire staff at this facility. Everyone I dealt with was so kind, understanding and so very nice.

My recovery was simple and I attribute that to the excellent care I received." K.B.
"This was an awesome experience. The staff treated me like a princess! You are fantastic!" T.S.

Everyone is so professional and has made me feel comfortable when responding to all my questions and concerns. I am extremely pleased with my results and my new found confidence.

"Today when I looked in the mirror an hour glass reflection shone back at me. Today despair no longer clouded my mind, knowing no matter the number of vigorous workouts, I'd never attain the womanly figure I truly longed for. Today I can walk into Victoria's Secret, instead of walking past it. Today I will feel special because my family and friends will share in my excitement and shower me with lots of TLC.

"You went all out...and the results were outstanding! Thanks for having me as your patient. Enjoy the cheese cake. I feel better with my new look. Many blessings to you and yours."
"Yard Sale Everything Goes! Stress $1.25, Anxiety .50, Worries $1.00, Frustration - best offer, Low Self-esteem - Free, Misc. problems .50 I would like to express to you how much I truly love my new look. You stated that you thought you could make me happy, but you couldn’t guarantee 100% I am totally and completely impressed, satisfied, and elated. You’ve also helped to eliminate all of those kinds of feelings printed on the font of this card. Thank you."
"I just want to say thank you so much for your dedication to your patients. I am truly impressed by so many aspects of you and your office. It made such a great difference to me to know that my care was in your hands. Thank you."
"A great big thank you - for all the great big smiles you bring! Thanks for a great job and all your kindness. Everytime I look into the mirror it brings a great big smile to my face! I love the new me."
"I can’t thank you enough for making my breast surgery a pleasant experience. Dr. Dowden, I can’t begin to express my appreciation. I am so thankful you are an amazing surgeon and so fortunate to be your patient. My results are awesome! I am so happy! You are an intelligent, gifted, caring & calming individual. I truly appreciate what you have done to enhance my body. You educate your patients so well, and provide the follow-up care instruction to make every effort that there will not be a problem post-op. This has been a great experience. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! Melody & Shirley (and of course Dr. Dowden) were so patient during my sizing consultations. I hope I didn’t appear to be an ignorant person who couldn’t make up her mind. I have to admit I thought the ‘oatmeal’ was a pain in the butt, but I am so happy you have your patients do this. It has made for such an easy transition after surgery. Thank you for answering my countless questions and guiding me through this journey."
"Thank You I can’t thank you enough. My ‘new’ stomach looks great thanks to you. I also appreciate how kind you were to me. Your staff couldn’t have been nicer. everyone was so pleasant to talk to and answer questions. Just a warning though, you just might see me again. Thanks again."
"To Dr. Dowden Gratitude is the memory of the heart. Thank you. Just another addition to your Thank you card collection - What a popular guy! My nose looks AMAZING, and for the first time, I truly feel like a pretty girl. Thank you so much for being the great doctor you were. I always felt 100! safe with whatever you were doing, and I really enjoyed your personality and sense of humor. I know you must have worked extremely hard to be the doctor that you are today! You’ll never know how much I appreciate the gift you’ve given me. Your hard work will always be reflected in the smiles on your patients faces; you’ve sure made my smile wider and brighter than it ever was. Thanks a million!"
"Dearest Dr. Dowden & nurses Thank you! Your generosity is only exceeded by your good looks! Hey - I figure, what the heck. Lay it on thick and maybe you’ll do it again! I hope we won’t have to go through it again! Because you’re that good! Thank you for making one of my dreams come true! And being a great & successful doctor! Again, thank you so much!"
"Dear Dr. Dowden & staff Warm thanks to all of you. Although this note says ‘Thank You’ in just this simple way, there’s special meaning in these words to all of you today...For the thoughts behind this message are especially ware and true, and words cannot express the special thanks this brings to you. I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful consultation I had with you. I learned so much more than I ever expected. Your kindness, warmth and superior knowledge reassure me that you are the surgeon for me. Thank you again."
"To Dr. Dowden, Shirley & Staff Thank you so much. Thank you all for being so nice and making everything so easy."
"Thank you. This comes with sincere gratitude. Thank you so much for making me look better than I could have ever imagined. You did such an excellent job. All of my clothes look so much better on me. I can finally look in the mirror and smile my ass off thanks to you! I will definitely refer every woman that compliments me. Thanks so much!"
"To Dr. Dowden Many Thanks for your thoughtfulness. Thank you for removing my surgical tape on Wednesday. My scars are so minimal they are barely noticeable. I appreciate your extraordinary surgical skills very much, but more than that I appreciate your thoughtfulness, consideration & understanding. You are a very special person and I hope you realize that you have these wonderful qualities. I’ll miss seeing you every 3 months as I have in the past, but I’ll look forward to my visit with you in December. Have a wonderful summer, I returned to Dayton the day after my visit with you. My mother fell again & I’m helping with her recovery. She is 91 now & it does not look too promising."
"To your staff & especially Shirley Thank you very much. A very special thank you for being so kind."
"To Dowden & Shirley & Staff Thanks for making me feel so special. Thanks for putting up with me also."
"Thank you. Thank you very much! What I mean is thank you very, very, much! What I really mean is thank you very, very, very, Gee! I just don’t know how to thank you enough! You’ve made me so happy with my new look - I just can’t thank you enough. I truly appreciate all the extra time you took with me - since I had a hard time making a decision. I’m thrilled with my choice. I appreciated your kindness. Thank you so much."
"Thank you. You’re the best! Thank you so much for all the difficult & meticulous work you have been doing on my reconstruction. I cannot thank you enough for all that you’ve done. I feel like a ‘new’ person. Your staff has been exceptional also. You truly have a wonderful practice. I am fortunate & blessed to have a surgeon like you! I can look in the mirror now & see your superb work! With gratitude."
"With thanks to all of you. You’re simply wonderful. Thank you so much for everything you have done for me! Lots of Love."

"To Dr. Dowden & Staff I cannot thank you enough for all that you have done for me! I sincerely appreciate all of your help in making my surgery such a success. I am also thrilled with my results making my long trip from Hawaii worth every cent!! Thank you once again!"
"Dear Tina, Shirley & Melody Thank you. I just wanted to thank you so much for everything you have done to help me through the process of my surgery. From the very first phone call I made to the office, I have been treated with care. You are all very professional and efficient, but also so warm, friendly, and helpful. You’ve created a wonderful atmosphere in the office that made me feel comfortable the moment I arrived. I appreciate your kindness and warmth. You make a great team! Dr. Dowden know what he was doing when he hired you!! Thank you for everything!"
"To Dr. Dowden and staff: I wanted to officially thank you for making my BA such a wonderful experience. It took me some time to process my fears, as you know. During this indecisive time you and your entire staff continued to be supportive of my decisions and extremely understanding! I appreciate your total honesty during my three consults. I always knew it was a major decision that only I could make, which turned out to be the most difficult part of the whole experience. The ‘thinking’ and ‘waiting’ wasn’t fun to go through, and most of the gals indicated that they also felt it was the hardest part. My recovery has went very smoothly, and I have you to thank for that. After seeing my pictures only one day post-op compared to others who chose a different doctor, it became very obvious to me why you come so highly recommended. I actually was wearing a one-piece swim suit on the weekend of my first check up while staying in Cleveland and felt that I looked natural. One man even told me I was ‘Lookin Good!’ what an ego boost after feeling less and less like a woman as the years advanced. Things around our home have gotten better and better. I’m a much happier person, which in turn makes the kids and hubby happier as well. Hubby and I have grown even closer, since I’m no longer ashamed to have intimacy with him. We both feel like we’ve went back in time to our early dating days and feel really attracted to each other again. I realized going into this, that a BA wasn’t going to fix all my hang-ups in life but I can safely say it’s repaired an enormous amount of them. We are currently at the cottage staying before school starts and having a wonderful time! We’ve even had friends over and I wore my bathing suit and felt very comfortable! I’m very pleased with my size it feels very natural and not overdone at all I guess I could go on and on, but wanted you and your staff to know that I had an awesome experience. I rank this right up with the birth of our kids as far as great experiences go! You are very talented and I thank God everyday for leading me to you. I pray that you will all continue to be greatly blessed in all ways."
"I’ve known Rick since he started his practice at U Mass in Worcester in 1993. I helped him when he decided to do a bodybuilding contest, and he came to Dallas to support me when I won my IFFB pro card. As a competitor and a judge in the sport, he brings a unique perspective to the surgical care of bodybuilders, and he works closely with his patients to get them back to the gym as quickly and safely as possible. He also understands what bodybuilders are looking for better than most plastic surgeons, since he’s been in the gym and on stage, striving for the perfection we all try to achieve." J.C.
"Growing up I was a size A/B cup and after two children and breast feeding ...they became even smaller. I felt amazed that I could train hard and enjoy working on developing muscle all over my body but felt unwomanly for the loss of body fat to my breasts. I decided to look into breast augmentation. Being an MRI technologist for many years I wanted the implants under the muscle, making itMelissa After much easier for the mammo technologist to obtain xrays needed for future yearly screenings. As well as the appearance of the implants under the muscle looks very natural. I did my needed research which brought me to Dr. Rick Silverman who specializes in under the muscle implants and has great experience in Figure and body building women over the years. It was really hard to tell how big or type of implant to use. That's when Dr Rick’s consult educated me. He explained all the options and then we took it home to discuss it between my husband and I to think about what I was looking for in my "new look". I choose Mentor saline-filled implants filled to 375 cc. I was very happy with the results. I enhanced my physique keeping it very natural looking. Many people today don't even know I had breast augmentation. My Breast size, shape and symmetry was perfect! Dr. Rick was very skilled in deciding the best options for me as well as carrying out the surgery. My recovery time was right on track. Five months later stepping out onto the Figure stage taking runner up in my first WNBF Pro Show! I was very happy with the results of my breast augmentation and five years later all I can think is that I wish I'd done it sooner." M.K.
"Dear Dr. Kofkoff and Staff, Your care, kindness, and concern just blows me away! I've "never" had a doctor send me flowers - they are beautiful!! Giving a patient the medical services they need can be done by all doctors, but to go beyond that and provide the care & human touch is a gift that a majority of doctors lack. Very few have a good "bedside manner" and a sense of humor. You, Dr. Kofkoff, have "all" the qualities that raises you above the average doctor. You are a rare jewel. Plus your staff possesses the rare gift of giving of themselves. Just keep doing what you're doing. The little extras "do" make a difference" T.
"Dr. Kofkoff, Teresa & Staff, Thanks so much for your excellent service & attentiveness; your gentle nature and confidence. And for changing my physique - I'm very pleased with the result & will refer many." A.
"Dr. Kofkoff, Thank you so much for all that you have done for me. My recovery has been so easy. I haven't been in any pain & that is all because of you!! I am already so happy with my results. You are the BEST!! All my friends are going to be so jealous! Can't wait! Ha! You are an artist! I can't Thank you enough!!" J.
"Theresa- Thank you for all your help! I am so excited at my new appearance. You really made my choice to go with Dr. Kofkoff an easy one! From our 1st consultation I knew I was in great hands! He is great but the choice is so much more than just for him, I chose you too! Best choice of my life! Thank you." J.
"Dear Dr. Kofkoff, Teresa & Christi, Thank you for the excellent care and concern from you. I am so pleased with the outcome of the surgery. I have bragged about you to everyone. If anyone wants to have cosmetic surgery I immediately recommend them to you. Thank you for the flowers. That was very thoughtful. Thank you for everything." K.
"Dr. Kofkoff, Teresa & Jaclyn, I have the utmost respect and gratitude for the way in which the three of you conduct you practice. I cannot imagine the number of patients you've helped though the years. Yet when it was my turn, you made me feel so special. I am blessed to know all of you and to experience your professionalism. Your dedication, your sense of humor, and of course, the quality of your work. Infinite Thanks." M.
"Dr. Kofkoff & Staff, I cannot begin to thank you enough for the beautiful job that you have done. Everyday I am thankful that I chose you to do this procedure. I never thought that I would actuaLly go through with a breast augmentation, but after meeting you & your staff at orientation, I knew I could. Everyone was extremely hospitable & caring that I literally could not have been more comfortable during the entire process. You would not believe the amount of girls that demand for your name after seeing what you have given me. One girl actually went to "4" different consultations & after seeing mine immediately decided to go to you! I am grateful for the PERFECT job that you have done. I could not imagine them looking any better. I am so glad that I went to you! Thank you so much!" W.
"Dear Dr. Kofkoff, Thank you for making my decision easy for choosing you and your staff. My enhancement is very nice and I am pleased with my results and it's only been one week! Very natural! I would be pleased to refer anybody considering this surgery to you. Good work and Thank you." A.
"Dr. Kofloff & Staff, Just wanted to say thanks for all of you time, concern and great care I received! You guys are the best! Thanks Again!" K.
"Dr. Kofkoff and Staff, Thank you so much for everything all of you have done to assist me in getting a "Better me"! Your considerate support went over and above any other Doctor I have ever known. The staffs' compassionate, concern and quick response helped to make my experience even better. It is rare to find such a high level of professionalism, while still maintaining a wonderful sense of humor. You and your staff are of the highest standards and skills. Thank you for everything."
"Dr. Kofkoff, Surgical result– Wonderful! Your office personnel was very informative and if they did not have an answer, they took time to find out what I needed to know. Theresa even took time to call me on her day to help me with some concerns I had after a confusing consultation with another surgery office. Everyone was sincere with concern for my needs and did not pressure me to make any decisions I was not ready to make. You have a no stress/pressure atmosphere."
"Dr. Kofkoff, Surgical result– Great! You and your staff were great! They answered all of our questions and thoroughly explained Post-op procedures." L.
"Dear Dr. Kofkoff, Theresa and Christi, Thank you for the excellent care and concern from you. I am so pleased with the outcome of the surgery… I have bragged about you to everyone I know. If anyone wants to cosmetic surgery, I will definitely recommend them to you. Thank you for the flowers. That was very thoughtful of you. Thank you again for everything." K.
"Thank you so much for your amazing work during my surgery last Thursday. I can tell I am going to love the results! You have a calm and easy rapport with your patients that is very impressive, given that it would be easy to be intimidated by so much talent. I can’t wait to heal fully and enjoy the results!" J.G.
"Dear Dr. Zienowicz, Thank you so much for the wonderful work you completed on my face and neck. I am so appreciative! Every time I glance in a mirror, I can’t believe how fantastic I look. I do look 15 years younger and I do feel a lot better about my appearance. My co-workers are not asking me what I did on my vacation, but they certainly are staring at me. You are an artist." J.C.
"I apologize that it has taken me 6 months to get this thank you letter to you. Thank you for the amazing job on my surgery. The whole experience from consultation to recovery, exceeded my expectations. (Surgery on Wednesday, in Boston on Saturday.) Six months later, no visible scars and it feels like my body was always this way! From my 1st visit to my discharge visit, you and your staff have assured that all my questions and concerns were addressed. At each visit I met a different member of your staff and each person made me feel so comfortable. I felt like I was talking with my girlfriends. I can honestly say I have never had an experience where everyone was so positive and kind. As an administrator, I know what a challenging task it is to create and maintain both a positive and professional culture; it is clear, Dr. Zienowicz, you have achieved this!"
"Dear Dr. Zienowicz, I want to deeply thank you for the amazing work you have done for me during my breast reconstruction. Your warmth and compassion make you a very special doctor, which coupled with your surgical expertise, make you one of the “BEST” doctors in Rhode Island. I am also forever grateful for the additional corrective measures you have made to make me more comfortable and HAPPIER. Despite my diagnosis of breast cancer, I consider myself fortunate to have crossed the paths of so many wonderful medical people, like yourself. May life bless you abundantly for all you do for others."
"When asked if I was happy about my surgeries. I told Dr. Z and everyone it was the best money I ever spent !! Thank you DR. Z!!" K.
"Dr. Z, I just wanted to say “thank you” for the amazing job you did on my Tummy Tuck. Although I am only a month into my recovery, I am thrilled with the outcome and the transformation is unbelievable. I know my results will only improve as time goes on – but it is hard to imagine they are going to be even better than they are now! You are a true artist with a special talent. I also want you to know your entire staff are true professionals. They have made me feel very comfortable and never hesitated to answer any questions or concerns I have. You are not only a doctor and his staff but feel you have become my friend, too!"
"I wanted to thank you once again for the amazing work you’ve done on me. I feel and look much better than I ever have. There is not one day that goes by that my husband doesn’t compliment me. Even I look at my new body everyday and am very thankful to you. I just can’t believe what my eyes see. You will be sure to meet a handful of women I’ve recommended to you. At least after they’re done having their babies. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I LOVE IT!"
"...I wanted to demystify the experience of being diagnosed and undergoing reconstruction surgery; at the same time, I wish to herald my RI doctors, Theresa Graves and Rick Zienowicz, as well as Linda Livingston in radiology (she has since married and has a new name). You see, I know how fortunate I am and would like to work so that others might have a similar positive outcome. To that effect, I offer my services as a spokesperson and fund-raiser. I have experience in public-speaking and know I could be a valuable resource: after all, I am a RI woman who has recovered well from 4 surgeries over 2 years, a woman who today has a positive outlook do to the skill of RI surgeons. In addition, I am a writer and a speaker. I donate funds from my real estate business to charitable ventures. I am sending you the recent story I sent to Seth, along with my offer to do public speaking services for RI Hospital in fund-raising mode. Barbara Scheppes and I have discussed where she might utilize new money coming in, and I am committed to trying to get her that money. As you will read in my story, I recommend other optimal situations I’d like to suggest as a patient advocate, but you may have some of this in place already; I wasn’t sure….it has been a while since I walked that path. So, please feel free to contact me…As I said in my piece, so many people offered the foregone conclusion “that I was going to Boston for Treatment, of course,” and I can only say I am thrilled with my decision to remain with RI professional medical treatment." C.M.
"Dr. Zeinowicz, I know I will probably see you several times in the future, but I wanted to say thank you once again for seeing me safely and successfully through my surgery. From your consult, to your literature, and your wonderful staff, everything went just as I hoped. You certainly perfected this procedure and I am so happy I chose you to do this. – And I know you’ve seen millions of breasts, but you can’t even believe how amazing it feels to be given this feeling of confidence and femininity, that is so very important to a woman. It must feel great to have a job that changes people’s lives in such a positive way."
"This is to thank you for the absolutely wonderful care and treatment I have received from each and every member of your staff. I can say that, without exception, I have never had a bad experience in all the times I have been there – unless of my own making, of course (leaving my glasses there, etc.)! From the minute I walk in to the minute I walk out I am always treated with kindness, professionalism, respect, understanding, patience, care, and genuine friendliness. I have never been to any another doctor’s office where I can say that to a person, every single member of the staff is pure quality. You are all a credit to your profession, and certainly make the world a much nicer place. If this chocolate makes you too fat, I know a really good cosmetic surgeon who can help you out..." P.
"Dear Dr. Zienowicz, I just really want to thank you for all you’ve done for me. Although my post surgical recuperation was tougher than I had anticipated, you were right there encouraging me and promising me it would be okay. You made me feel so beautiful at my appointment this past Friday. I could see in your eyes that you meant it. I can tell you are proud of your work and I feel you see what you as a work of art. I realize how difficult it must be for you every day trying to make women feel good about themselves. Thank you for taking the time to bring me into your office and answer my questions about my implants. Also, thanks for indulging me and letting me get a picture taken with you. Here is a proverb I found that kind of sums up my feelings and it is all thanks to you: “Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, she became a butterfly.” Isn’t that just beautiful? But, that’s how I feel. Very nice and happy. So, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am truly blessed to have you as my cosmetic surgeon." D.
"Please know I am very pleased with my results so far and I'm in awe at your talent! Thank you for helping me to feel like a woman again and for all you do for others in this situation. I am blessed to be in your care!" K.M.
"I so want to thank you for all that you have done for me. Physically, you have made me feel normal-'the same', and I am so happy for that. Thank you also for always making me feel like I was your only patient-always so kind. I hope you enjoy this gift-it is just a small thought to let you know how I feel. Thank you again! Sincerely." T.J.
"I would really be remiss if I didn't tell you how very much I appreciate everything you've done over the past several months to help me overcome my breast cancer ordeal. Your confidence, compassion and support greatly eased my anxieties, and your consummate skills as a reconstructive surgeon have given me back hope and self assurance. I am very grateful!" C.F.
"You can be sure that you do have one very elated patient. I'm not sure what I expected after all your wonderful work but I did not expect to have such a natural looking bust. Dr. Restifo, you are, to say the least, very talented and I thank God every day that I found you. With sincere appreciation." C.C.
"I just wanted to thank you for all that you've done for me. I made a very big and scary decision, and through it all I felt extremely comfortable in your care. You truly are a gifted and special doctor! Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. Sincerely." K.E.
"You gave back to me so much more than I can describe. A few months ago, if anyone had told me that, today, I would feel this wonderful, I would have thought they couldn't possibly understand. Thank you for your medical skill, your quiet compassion and your patience. Sincerely." L.S.
"Thank you for your outstanding care this year. Your surgical skill and compassion were extraordinary. I feel fortunate to have had you on my side. With sincere appreciation..." A.R.
"I wanted to thank you so much for everything you have done for me. Knowing I was going to lose my breast at such a young age was very difficult. I felt like I would never 'look right' in clothes, a bathing suit, or even to others. Then I was sent to you. I can't believe what you were able to do for me. I occasionally get self-conscious that someone may see me while changing or trying on clothes, but I'm sure no one would even notice. I'm more confident and could not be happier with the results. Again, I want to thank you for your wonderful work. Sincerely." H.T.
"I would like to thank you for taking the time to meet with myself and my friend, during the time of decisions with a surgeon and plastic surgeon. Your professionalism was put forward and your gentleman approach was very much appreciated. It's been a month since surgery and all is terrific. Thanks for your honest kindness." D.F.
"Thank you so much for extending your kindness, expertise, and talent toward me. Your understanding and compassion have made coping with my condition and its consequences much easier. You have brought a huge dose of sunshine and peace into my life and household. I will be forever grateful for what you are doing for me and through me for my family. I realize what a tremendous commitment you have undertaken by agreeing to accept me as your patient. I suspect that my appreciation of your efforts and compassion will intensify with time (if it is possible to appreciate more) because the outcome of your decision and work will accompany me for the rest of my life. Thank you. With best wishes and much gratitude." D.M.
"Thank you for the outstanding work you performed on me. Your superlative surgical skills are incredible and I am intoxicated with the results. I am so pleased to have met you! Although we spoke just a few times, your charm, brilliance, and indescribable confidence and trust quickly came across. You really are one in a million. Best wishes for continued success, happiness, and all good things. Warmest regards." J.T.
"I wanted to thank you for helping me achieve a more youthful appearance. Your kindness and compassion and generosity mean more to me than you know. My life is full of challenges that require youth and strength. You have given me a bit of an 'edge' to help me achieve my goals. Thank you from my heart. See you soon." M.C.
"Thank you so much for all you did for me; you have made me feel pretty again! (I bet you hear that all the time). Always." R.S.
"For your artistry, skill, compassion, and commitment-I will be forever grateful. Thanks for being there for me and for others. Fondly." C.M.
"Thank you so much for everything. I am so happy with the results of your surgery. And also-you and your staff have been so kind and very professional. You have a great bedside manner and it really has made this whole ordeal so much easier. Fondly." B.L.
"I wanted to extend my sincere appreciation to you. The abdominoplasty surgery has made a tremendously positive impact in my life, both physically and mentally. You have a gift that goes beyond the cosmetic aspect of plastic surgery by putting an individual's well being ahead of financial gain! My best to you always. Thank you again for your caring professionalism! Sincerely." C.C.
"I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you. I took the bandages off yesterday. I love what you've done! After so long I'm finally happy with them! All the best." M.B.
"Thank you for doing what no other doctor could do. I finally feel good about myself again and I'll always remember you for helping me." L.B.
"The work you did on my nose had made me so happy, and the final results aren't even here yet!...Because of you, my life is forever changed for the better."
"Thanks for my pretty new set. I feel like a young, sexy lady."
"...Thanks for a great job on my nose...You did a beautiful job...you and your staff showed me so much warmth, kindness and caring."
"...How pleased I am with your work. The scarring in so minimal...the surgical results are outstanding. Thank you for preparing me and following through."
"...I appreciate the beautiful job you did with my surgery and also for the "extras" you corrected to give me a finished product I would love."
"Please accept this small expression of my overwhelming gratitude for all you've done for my son, John...I thank God and I thank you for using your skill and expertise to save John's hand."
"There are not sufficient words to express my appreciation for all you have accomplished for me...People who have known me for many years stop me on the street and tell me how wonderful I look...Thank you, thank you!"
"...Thank you! I went swimsuit shopping...For the first time in years I had a choice in suits and felt good about how I looked...I ended up buying a two-piece!!"
Dr. Cummings and Staff, Feel free to share this letter of recommendation and referral. Every single word is true and heartfelt. The real cinch is that I do not trust or recommend doctors at all, ever! That is before now. This is the very first time. Every absolute necessary visit to any doctor’s office from pediatrician on up has not been as rewarding as working with each one of you. There are no words to adequately express my gratitude. Very simply, THANK YOU! GOD BLESS YOU ALL for how you do what you do! Flawlessly! Dr. Cummings and his AWESOME staff are in a word, GODSEND! They have each one been a blessing to me since I was first introduced to them in 2006. A true friend and sister in Christ, went past the privacy and confidentiality to share her discretion with my, then, 20 year old daughter, who was dealing with uncomfortable body image after gastric bypass. I want to pay it forward! Go for it! Make It happen! CALL NOW! You will be so glad you did, we three are living proof! From the very first phone call to Dr Cummings office and the many to follow, my daughter and I were made to feel like we were their first priority with kind consideration to every question or concern we could mention, Not once did we ever feel rushed or dismissed. Instead, we were affectionately addressed with thoughtful, undivided attention to each and every call, as well as, each and every visit. The office is equally warm and welcoming. Now, my daughter no longer deals with low self-esteem issues due to a malformed body but I do! It is unnecessary too mention all of the reasons since we are made to feel so body conscious in our society anyway but I found my body so unattractive that I had literally become a recluse. My daughter suggested I visit Dr. Cummings by saying, "Mom, you trusted him with your baby, why not trust him with your body?” The seed was planted! I prayed about the vanity, expense, secrecy, sheer embarrassment that goes along with the guilt of having let me get in this condition. I found the courage to make the first of many calls. I went through the motions, then backed away, literally talked myself out of what seemed like a selfish thing to do. I could not justify the whole idea for some unknown reason. Lots of time passed until I got worse and more disgusted with me, which added to the low self esteem not to mention lack of motivation. Enough! Let me just say, I made vet another series of calls, STILL greeted with the same kindness and did not talk myself out of it this lime, I just did it! I am so THANKFUL that I did! I’m writing this to share, like my dear friend did back then, don’t hesitate to trust Dr. Cummings and his exceptionally professional staff with your body issues. If, for whatever reason they can not help you, they will recommend someone they trust. How amazing is that for professional? Finally, let me close by sharing our surgery experience. My daughter had a breast lift that turned out so perfect she declined the implants. She really does look extremely natural with very little scars. I had liposuction. OMG! Why did I wait so long?

I've seen pictures of his other work - I remember a tummy tuck picture that was absolutely amazing. He's an artist, has a good eye for symmetry and keeps in mind our desire to look "natural" and not "done". He has a very pleasant personality, listens carefully and is relaxed when he conducts a consultation. I always knew his attention at that time was 100% on me and what I was saying. He also has an excellent staff. I couldn't imagine going to any other plastic surgeon." K.O.

"Dr. Baxter is the best surgeon in the Seattle area. I'm 46 years old and needed a little touch up. He suggested lipo after having a baby and botox to remove some deep wrinkles on my forehead. I'm not one to brag but he did a beautiful job. He makes you feel comfortable discussing your body imperfections. He is confident, listens well and gives good ideas to enhance your beauty. There is an art to cosmetic surgery and he has what it takes. He can make a difference in your life.

"I had lipo on two sep. occasions and recent breast aug. by Dr. Baxter. I've had plenty of consults w/ Docs all over W. Washington. He was honest and up front about what results could be acheived. Very thorough answering all of my questions. The recovery time was minimal. I was expecting pain but I would explain it as discomfort. My breasts look and feel completely natural. The scars are almost unnoticable. I have seen many results from breast Aug. (most of my friends have had it done) This is how I know his work is REMARKABLE. I'm fortunate to have found him and so I want to spread the word." S.G.
"Dr. Baxter and his staff provide a comfortable, professional and friendly experience eveytime I visit the office.

I am pleased with the care I received from him and his staff, and the wonderful, life changing results of his procedures." T.Y.
"Dr. Baxter and his staff are caring, professional, and they go above and beyond to make sure each patient is happy. After visiting with approximately 9 other plastic surgeons, I finally chose Dr Baxter. With the type of work I wanted to have done, I felt he was the only one who truly cared about what I wanted for an outcome, and that he was the only one that I could trust to do a great job. I am extremely happy with the results and could not have chosen a better surgeon. In the months following my surgery Dr. Baxter and his team kept in constant contact with me to make sure everything was healing well and made extra effort to make themselves available either by phone or in person any time I had a question. I could not imagine going anywhere else and receiving this high level of care and support. Dr Baxter and his team are compassionate and Dr Baxter is very talented. They are such wonderful people who sincerely care about each person that comes into their office." R.
"Dr. Baxter, I've been meaning to send you an email to thank you for your excellent care during and after my breast augmentation. I think it's been over six months now. The healing time was much shorter than I expected and although I was quite nitpicky at the results in the beginning, I realize now that my results are remarkable. They look and feel completely natural - no one would ever know! The scars are very fine lines and barely noticeable. I was very uncomfortable w/ the loss of tissue in my breasts after my last child. This procedure has boosted my self confidence in a bathing suit and in the buff and it's also added time to my schedule since I can now throw any top and it suits my figure again. Who to trust with this surgery was a big decision. I'm glad to have found you and know where to go if I need cosmetic adjustments in the future. Thanks again for doing such a great job! Sincerely," S.
"I found Dr. Baxter after exhaustive research on various websites as well as breastimplants411.com. As a fitness model, I am in bikinis at most of my shoots. I intially had my implants under the muscle, but I was experiencing a lot of distortion and banding of the implants whenever I moved my arms and activated my pectoral muscles. This distortion would show up in my pictures. I initially compiled a list of 10 Dr's in the DC Metro area which is where I live. Half of the Dr's refused to redo my implants as they felt they could not improve on them, and the other half said they could operate, but would not guarantee that the results would be any better. All except one refused to take the implants out and place them above the muscle, but I did not want that option as I am very lean and the implants would have been very visible. It was then that I decided to broaden my search, and found an article ( on your site ) about Alloderm grafts being used in breast implants and a new technique called "subfascial" implantation. That particular article featured Dr. Baxter; so I promptly called his office and set up an appointment, even though it meant I had to travel across the country to get to him. Dr. Baxter's staff was wonderful in dealing with me and the various different issues encountered as an out of town patient. Dr. Baxter himself was extremely reassuring, and a great surgeon to have. He seems to be abreast of all the latest and greatest techniques out there. When asked why I traveled all the way to Seattle for surgery, my answer is that Dr. Baxter was the only surgeon I found in the US who offered the "subfascial" technique. I am sure there may be others, but I have not come across them. In fact, there are quite a few women in the fitness industry who have the same problems I had, so I decided to collaborate with "Oxygen Magazine" on an article describing my experience in order to educate women about the various options available to them. That article is out on the news-stand currently. I am extremely pleased with my results, and should I ever need any other work done I would go to Seattle in a heartbeat knowing that I would be in great hands. Thanks!" D.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your very attentive care given throughout my two surgeries. From consultation to the final photos, I felt most comfortable with your knowledge and expertise. You were always available for questions and concerns, with a sincere attitude. My results are wonderful from both my abdominoplasty and the liposuction to my hips and thighs. I am very impressed with your professionalism, your kind manner and your attempt for perfection! Please feel free to add my name onto your list of references for any future prospective patients. You will certainly be highly recommended!" T.S.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, This is an expression of my thanks and gratitude to you. I'm very happy with the results of the liposuction procedure that was performed by you this year. Coming from a nursing background, I understand how you have chosen a medical specialty which not only requires a keen eye and compassion for detail, but also a great desire."
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, I want to thank you for all you've done for me. I know this won't get into your 'nice notes' notebook when I say 'oh my God my butt looks great!' As always you've exceeded my expectations. I can't believe I'm the same person who walked into your office four plus years ago. You not only helped my physical apperance, but you always keep a tight rein on maintenance. A trip to your office every 4-6 weeks is the albatross I keep tied around my neck. Being left handed usually mans you're artistic. You say you're not, but I say the human body is your canvas. Thanks thanks!" S.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, I feel like the happiest gal in the whole USA!! Not only am I impressed but I am by far blessed for having such a marvelous person like yourself doing a beautiful job on my tummy!! You sure do miracles and I am one great example! (of your work)... I must add - you're easy on the eyes, 'very handsome' with such a cute smile! You sure have your act together Doc! I've been blessed just to know of you and all your marvelous work! Gee, I can't wait till I have my in ground pool opened! It'll be my turn to show off your great job. I truly thank you for making me sooo happy!" P.L.
"Dear Ricardo, Please accept this hard mode rosary in appreciation of the help and care you gave to both Sue and I. I blessed it for you. This rosary was made by hand by a member of the Knights of Columbus. May God Bless. Thank you." Rev. K.P.
"It's been 1 month (and 1 week) since my surgery and I can't even begin to tell you how thankful I am that you did such a magnificent job. At first when I was 'considering' having a 'full abdominoplasty,' I couldn't imagine any doctor could fix my stomach. As you know, I was upset with myself; I couldn't reduce the size of my stomach with exercise or dieting anymore; I was tired of people asking me when my baby was due; not to mention my self esteem hit rock bottom. For almost 3.5 years I've lived with this - you have literally changed me! Thank you. I feel great! I look great! And the best part is - I can wear clothing that I haven't worn in so long (especially my jeans). 🙂 I'm looking forward to summer so I can finally wear a two piece again instead of a maternity bathing suit."
"You really did a nice job. Your professionalism and knowledge of what I needed, and what my concerns were about the surgery, helped me make this decision. Everyone in your office was (and still is) so pleasant to deal with. They all acted so interested and concerned about my feeling, sand were always there to answer any questions. you really are blessed with a wonderful gift from above, as well as a talent. Thank you again for everything! PS I meant what I said about being put in your photo book up front - a 'before' and 'after' shot. That's how proud of my new tummy I am." D.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, Just a note to say 'hello' and let you know I think of you often. You wouldn't believe how many people tell me what an incredible job you did on my eyes. I wish you were in Florida of course, if I can afford other surgery I will come to Baltimore. I will be coming to Baltimore in May, my godchild, Nicole is graduation from law school. Hopefully I will have time to stop by and say hello. I was very upset to hear that your daughter is ill. I will pray for her recovery. My regards to all." J.
"Thank you for taking my stitches out. I really appreciate it. Thanks a lot!" Testimonial from a child B.M.
"With sincere thanks for your kindness, it was appreciated more than words can say. My face is very grateful to you for giving its nose a new look. Thank you for your prompt attention to my very small problem. Hope to see you in Viegues soon. Regresa pronto a la Isla del Encanto." E.T.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, Since Diane's cosmetic surgery we have had some interesting experiences. On our morning walks, we have come to know a couple who walk with their dogs. A few weeks ago one of them said to me, 'It's so nice you have your daughter with you today.' We had lunch a few days ago and an old friend came over to our table and said to Diane, 'I wanted to be sure it was you...I recognized Bob, but said to my husband,'I think Bob is on a date with some young chick...I'd better check her out.'' It is good you didn't do your super-super-deluxe surgery because I would be arrested for pedophilia. Seriously, we both appreciate your kind attention and expert care." D. & B.G.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, Paula & Staff, Thanks for your help in a successful surgery. I am so please with the new me! Everyone was thoughtful through the whole process!! Keep up the good work!"
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, Thank you so much for all your time in helping me with everything. If you need to call on me for any of your patients; please call me. Thanks!"
"Just wanted to say Thank you, not only are you and your staff very professional, but you are also very caring people. I am very pleased with my surgery, and would recommend your services to anyone I associate with. For this I say Thanks, Thanks, and Thanks!"
"I cannot thank you enough! You have boosted my self-confidence '10' notches, not to mention my boobs! Thank you for your honesty, caring and professionalism. When you find the BEST you need to look around at the rest. Your staff is top of the line; they helped me through the biggest decision of my life with a smile! I have waited 28 years for you! HA HA!"
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, Thank you so much for taking care of me these past 2 years. I think you are a wonderful surgeon and a very caring person. I am extremely pleased with the results. A thank you also to your staff. They were always very helpful and courteous."
"Dr. Rodriguez & Staff, Thank you so much for all your help. I really like the results. I feel great thanks to you. "Best wishes" and Thanks again; you've been so kind."
"Dr. Rodriguez & Staff, I saw this card and thought - how appropriate - for the surgery I just underwent. I just wanted to say "Thank you" for the excellent job you've done Dr. Rodriguez & for all the cooperation & support from your staff. Until the next visit."
"Dr. Rodriguez & Staff, I would like to thank everybody for being so nice & understanding. I especially want to thank Dr. Rodriguez for a job well done. I have gotten so many compliements in the past couple weeks; all my coworkers, friends and family didn't think it would make such a difference, they are all very surprised and happy for me. I look forward to putting on make-up now. Thanks again so much." B.
"Dear Dr. Rodriguez, I feel like I have a new lease on life. You are truly a gifted surgeon and a wonderful & talented artist. But most of all, your warm, caring and compassionate ways - not only for my physical but personal well being has touched me deeply and for this I am very grateful. I also want to tell you how wonderful your office staff was to me. Peace." D.
"Dr Meade and Staff, From the moment of walking into the office my first appointment, it has been such a delightful experience. After never having any type of cosmetic surgery, Dr. Meade and his staff made me feel at ease the entire process. I never imagined I would be this satisfied with my results. Thank you Dr. Meade for helping me feel good in my own skin. I could not be any happier with my decision, and would highly recommend you to any friends and family."
"Dr. Meade, Becky, Jaine, Thank you so much for your continued personal invested care of your patients. It's so refreshing to receive a new standard of care in a very traditional field such as medicine."
"Dear Dr. Meade, When I first met you, I was dealing with a lot of emotions because I was scheduled to have a mastectomy and you were going to do the reconstruction surgery at the same time. I had never dreamed of going to a plastic surgeon and yet here I was in your office. From the day I met you I could tell that you were caring and enjoyed what you do. After several months, I have since learned that you are very gifted, talented, and use your skills to help people like me. Having cancer has not been a great experience, but with your help, I've gained some new confidence and feel whole again. I'm glad you do what you do because you do it well. Thank you for waht you do and being not only a good doctor but also a good person. I'm very pleased with my new breasts. I never liked my old ones, but cancer gave me an opportunity to get bigger ones, cancer free! I am now new and improved! That is because of you! Thank you for EVERYTHING! PS, Now I would consider using a plastic surgeon again - well, probably just you. I've enjoyed coming to your office. I have always felt welcomed there by everyone. The people who work there have also made this a good experience."
"I know you've heard a million times (that's just from me!) "Thank you!" You are a truly wonderful man and surgeon. Without your help ad caring and steady hand I would never look as complete as I do!! Thank you for all your kindness and your wonderful work!!"
"Dr. Meade, It was great to see you in your office last week. As you know, Steph and I are two of your biggest fans. Not only are you a wonderful surgeon, but you are someone I trust to select the best procedure for my individual case. I remember my first visit to discuss my surgery. I told you I didn't want to look like I had come through a "wind tunnel." Your response, "I don't know how to do that. I don't do the 'wind tunnel' look." One of your best characteristics is your pleasant demeanor. You are relaxed, kind and not hurried. You take time to really "know" your clients. That is so important to me. Thanks for being who you are!"
"Dear Dr. Meade, You have been a pleasure!! Sweet, kind, considerate. Took the time to call us after surgery! Very easy to talk to and SUPER CARING. Very skilled and talented and easy on the eyes. I just wanted to say thank you for everything!! And that I would recommend you to everyone and anyone needing a surgeon!"
"I just wanted to send a note to let Dr. Meade and staff know what a difference you all have made in my life. I had carefully chosen Dr. Meade as my plastic surgeon, for breast augmentation after scouring every single surgeon within a 50 mile radius of me. Dr. Meade stood out, by far, as not only the most personable, but beyond other's average surgeon skills as well. I have been noted as having an "over analyzing" type personality, and I wanted to be certain that my surgeon was able to create a natural look with this procedure. Too many times, I have seen women who have undergone breast augmentation to only secretly think to myself (ugh, she looked better before, now she looks fake!). I will say this was my biggest fear (looking fake). Dr. Meade was so very accompanying to my fears, worries and many anxieties. He called me and talked with me on the phone to answer more questions even after 2 full in person consults. After all, this is a huge decision, it's the only body you have and you should think carefully who you choose. After much (much) consideration and nervousness, I was finally excited and at ease, with Dr. Meade's help of course. I trusted & believed in his skills and the procedure. Now, a little over a month later, I am LOVING my breasts. They look proportionate to my body; they don't look as if someone just "put" them there. I have had girlfriends tell me that they look real and I can’t stop my man from touching them! Dr. Meade accentuated what God had already created in my body and fixed what childbearing and nursing took away. I am more than thankful for a body I can smile at in the mirror, and no longer feeling sad or down on myself after a shopping trip (shopping's fun now, as it should be!) Thank you a million times over for your artistic hands, your caring, kind and patient heart. When I look in the mirror now, I see ME. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!"
"Dr Meade, I must say, ever since we have completed everything, I think all of my pictures show my cleavage...LOL...Thank you for all that you have done for me both inside and out. You don't know how much you have helped me in all ways!!!" S.L.
"Dear Dr. Meade, Thank you for the wonderful job you did in my reconstructive breast surgery and for helping me feel good about myself again. I get the feeling you really do care about your patients. This is a trait that is not found all that often in doctors today. God has given you a great gift in your surgical and creative skills. May he continue to bless you." C.K.
"Dr. Meade, I wanted to send you a note to let you know how my life has changed since the face lift. I look years & years younger and feel great! It is amazing how it changed my face. I no longer look tired. Nothing is sagging either. I thought about waiting to have the surgery since I am only in my 50's but I wanted to look great today and for the next 10 years or so. Why wait? Today is now. Thank goodness I had someone tell me all about you and how great you were. Everything that has been told about you is true. I feel so much more confident. I used to be embarrassed about my profile. No longer. I never think about it. Dr. Meade, thank you for standing true to your word. I am so glad I met you."
"Dr. Meade, I wanted to Thank you so much for wonderful job you did on my tummy. The tummy tuck was the best thing I have done for myself in years. My only regret is that I did not do it earlier. Everything to get rid of the unwanted fat (skin). If I only had a penny for all the sit ups that I did for the last year, I would be a rich lady. I had no idea you could remove 14 pounds from my stomach. Thank you. I am so glad you did! I feel & look great. I maybe 50 but I don't have the stomach of a 50 year old. You were right. I haven't had a flat stomach like this since high school, and I was a gymnast! I have the stomach of an 18 year old. Couldn't ask for more than that. Forever grateful to you."
"Dear Dr. Angobaldo, I wanted to write and let you know how pleased I am with the results from my Slim Liposuction. Although I have been working out for several years and am considered a slender person by my peers, I could never quite get rid of those genetic problem areas that made me so self conscious in tight clothing and swimwear. I never imagined I could have slender shapely inner thighs, a tight flat tummy, and a shapely back. Years of thigh squats and sit up’s frustrated me as no matter what I tried, exercise seemed to make no difference for me. I feel like I have been photoshopped in real life to have my body just the way I always dreamed it would be!! I just can’t wait this summer to shop and stroll around in some fun swimwear and not cringe about my thighs and tummy looking flabby. I also want to give props to your team there, everyone was so kind to me from day one and did not make me feel like I was just a number… I loved the after care and according to my friends who have had lipo done other places, they didn’t get near the follow up care, so thank you thank you thank you for all the extra special care and attention. I look forward to having you help me look my best for the future..." L.K.
"Thank you so much for making me beautiful. I love my Juvederm! I just wanted to say I appreciate you all." S.G.
"I just wanted to write you a note to express my gratitude for the excellent care you have been giving Emily. You have such a calming presence for your patients and their parents. I have not had any doctor before that was as easy to talk with as you are. Thank you for putting up with my stupid questions and anxiety and Emily’s stubbornness." L.H.
"I have struggled with my figure my entire life. My curvy Italian body never looked good in clothes and most of my weight seemed to settle in the lower half of my body. After many years of dieting, I decided to try plastic surgery. My first experience left much to be desired and I was even more embarrassed with my figure. A friend refereed me to Dr. Angobaldo and I liked him immediately. He had a welcoming smile and a great office staff that made me feel really comfortable. He knew exactly what to do to fix my awkward appearance. His surgical staff took excellent care of me and I felt safe with them. They guided me through my recovery and made sure everything was healing well. For the first time in my life I love my body. Dr. Angobaldo worked with what God gave me and made me the best I could be. I would recommend him to my family and my friends with confidence." J.U.
"I don't know if blondes have more fun or not since I'm a brunette, but I'm experiencing a lot more fun after Dr. Angobaldo did a terrific job sculpting my hips and abdomen. Dr. Angobaldo and his staff went above and beyond with exceptional care before, during, and after my surgery. When I look in the mirror, something I do every chance I get, I just can't believe how good I look and feel at 54. Thank you, Dr. Angobaldo and your wonderful staff." L.F.
“I saw another plastic surgeon in Plano and wanted to keep looking. I met with Dr. Angobalgo and his friendly staff. Because of their wonderful ability to make me feel comfortable, I booked with them right away. They are very friendly and work hard to make you feel a part of the family.”
“After meeting Dr. Angobaldo and his caring staff, I canceled my existing appointment and booked with Renaissance Plastic Surgery immediately!”
"I just wanted you to know what a pleasant experience the visit to your office was when I brought my grandson, Alex in last week. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and that was greatly appreciated." N.G.
"Dear Dr. Angobaldo and Staff, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and your staff for the excellent care I received before, during, and after my facelift procedure. I can’t tell you how happy I am with my results and how wonderful it feels to look in the mirror everyday and not feel self conscious anymore but love the face I remembered from my younger days! Thank you also for the lovely flowers you sent to my home and all the support you and your staff so caringly provided to me. Thank you again." P.R.
"My decision to meet with the staff at the Renaissance Center for Plastic Surgery and Wellness was an easy one. Dr. Contogiannis and her staff consistently went above and beyond my expectations. During my initial consultation, I was hesitant and had several questions. Dr. Contogiannis and her staff answered all my questions, provided me with additional literature to review and invited me to call if I had additional questions. They were readily available throughout my entire decision making process. I have been greeted with the same exceptional level of courtesy and professionalism during each phone call and at each visit. My results are better than I imagined. I always hoped I would look better and now I do. I am happier with more zest for life. My family constantly tells me how excited they are about the new me. I walk with my head held high and my smile wider because of my confidence in how I look. Today when I notice people noticing me, I know its not only because I feel amazing, I look amazing." N.S.
"My experience at the Renaissance Center was fabulous. I had a breast augmentation going from an A-cup to a full C-cup. The surgery went smoothly and recovery wasn’t bad at all. The first week is the hardest. I slept propped up on pillows. I got up everyday and took a walk. It helped me feel better. At three weeks I was able to jog a little. At two months I felt completely normal. I recommend waiting as long as you can before buying a new bra. My breasts changed from week to week for several months. I am so happy with the way I look now. The care I received from Dr. Contogiannis was amazing. The whole staff is great and very professional. I would recommend her to anyone and will go back if and when I ever have more plastic surgery." L.R.
"Dr. Contogiannis didn’t tell me what I should have done, she listened to how I wanted my body to look, and then she did it. I love how I look. I’ve always been an exerciser, but now people ask me if I work out and what I do. I’ve always been careful of what I eat, but now people want to know my diet secrets. I love telling people that I’m 40; I have 4 kids who are 9, 8, 6 & 5 years old, and then watching them try to figure out how I do it. When they ask I tell them; I work out, I watch what I eat, and I visited Dr. Contogiannis and changed my life." N.D.
Dear Dr. Rosenthal and Staff, Thank you so much for the excellent care you gave me during my first cosmetic surgery experience. I'm absolutely thrilled with the results and only wish I would have done it years ago. While I fully expected the results to be everything I'd hoped for, I was pleasantly surprised at how friendly you are all and how wonderful you were to me! Thank you!! Sincerely, A.F.
Dear Dr. Rosenthal and Staff, All I can say is look at my before & after shots & you'll know why I am thrilled with the outcome! Combine the incredible results of a skilled surgeon, a wonderful staff & great instructions & you'll know why my experience was so positive. Dr. Rosenthal is a kind & gentle woman who obviously loves what she does and truly cares for her patients. Thank you all!!! Sincerely, J.W.
Dear Dr. Rosenthal and Staff, When I was first thinking about Breast Augmentation I was very skeptical, then I had the opportunity to speak to a friend that just had it done -- by Dr. Rosenthal of course! -- she spent about 6 months interviewing Doctors and researching everything before she decided on Dr. Rosenthal... She was "very happy" with her results, and that's when I looked into it further, besides the testimonial I was very impressed with Dr. Rosenthal's education as well as her practice, and it was important for me to have a doctor with an active role on the Board of Plastic Surgery. I'm "very happy" with the "NEW" me, and I'm very happy with the whole procedure from start to finish! I would like to send a BIG THANK YOU to Dr. Rosenthal and her staff -- I couldn't have done it with-out you! Sincerely, T.W.
Dear Dr. Rosenthal and Staff, Thank you for the excellent care & support I received. I was nervous about my breast augmentation & all of you helped me with care & understanding & I ended up with a great result. Dr. Rosenthal is very good with the tiny details that matter, like the placement of the incision under the arm where my natural fold is - so it isn't as noticeable. The shape, size & feel is amazing! Thanks for a wonderful experience. Sincerely, L.P.
Dear Dr. Rosenthal and Staff, From my very first contact with your office, I felt I was dealing with a professional, well-organized practice. You instilled confidence from the start with your effective office staff, the physical setting of the waiting room, the availability of other patients' testimonials and before and after photos, Dr. Rosenthal's reputation, credentials, manner and appearance and even your web site. I never had a moment of doubt that I had come to the right place. Sincerely, H.M.
"To Dr. Dunn and Staff, First I'd like to say how "welcoming" and comfortable" you made me feel from the first appointment. I came in looking to have a tummy tuck & breast lift. Dr. Dunn was very knowledgeable and his staff offered me tons of info on the procedure and recovery. The day of the procedure I was taken care of like a princess. They were amazing tending to my every need like i was their "only" patient. The outcome was above and beyond what I could have expected. I look and feel like a ROCK STAR. All that I can say is that if you're thinking of any procedure he is the "ONE" and "ONLY doctor to go to"!! Thanks for making me feel beautiful again."
"Dear Dr. Dunn & Staff, I can't thank you all enough for the wonderful care & consideration you have all shown me in a very difficult, and uncertain time for me. Everyone, from the reception desk all the way through the office and on to the surgical staff - you have all been wonderful care givers. I am so happy and pleased with the results, and I am certain, as I continue the healing process, I will only be happier. Dr Dunn - you are a gifted & wonderful surgeon and I am very fortunate for that."

Dear Dr. Capone: I wanted to take some time to express my sincere gratitude towards you. In your mind you may say that you've performed breast augmentation and abdominoplasty on me. In my mind, I say that you've enhanced my whole life. Not only am I thrilled with the results, I carry myself in an entirely different way. I used to be embarrassed about certain parts of my body and I would do whatever I could to conceal them. Now I want everyone to see how nice I look. You've done so much more for me than you realize and I will be forever grateful. A.
Dear Dr. Capone, I want to thank you and your staff. I was a 19 year old with severely low self-esteem, and was unable to wear regular clothing due to the size of my breasts. Being only 19, you counseled my parents and me to ensure that I was interested in breast augmentation for only the right reasons. And I was. The procedure changed my life. I had always been a leader and always excelled at schoolwork. After the procedure, my self-esteem was higher so I felt more capable socially as well as the areas that I was already strong. The reason now that I write to you was the final test. I recently had a baby, Olivia Kay on July 23, 2003. I had heard horror stories of women with breast implants who were unable to breastfeed, but even prior to the surgery you had ensured me that I would be able to breastfeed my children, something that was very far in the future, but nonetheless important to me. I truly am thankful that not only did the breast augmentation surgery change my life in a positive manner, but that I am able to still use my breasts for their God given purpose, to nurture children. Thank you so much A.W.S.
"I am very satisfied with the results of my lower eyelid surgery. From the consultation through the follow up care, everything went very smooth. There was very little discomfort and down time. He is very professional, easy to talk to and his explanations are easy to understand. I would definitely recommend him to anyone thinking of having plastic surgery."
"I had 6 consults before Dr. W. I did not consider any of them. After my consult with Dr. W, I knew I would be scheduling surgery soon. Dr. W is professional, approachable, kind, genuinely concerned about his patients best interest, wise, caring and does GREAT work. When most doctors do the bare minimum, his focus extends to health and wellness so he has tools that help you heal faster and better - it really works! His office is comfortable and it's easy to schedule an appointment, he listens carefully, allows time for all your concerns and is quick to answer any call or email. My face lift and rhinoplasty are now complete and I can assure you he is a Master and I will be grateful forever."

“Dear Dr. Kalus, With each passing day I am even more pleased with my results from my recent surgery. I want to thank you and your wonderful staff for making my first ever experience with plastic surgery so incredible. At my age, 61, it was a big step for me to even consider surgery, but I am so glad I did. It is now just 6 weeks since the surgery and the results are amazing. My face and neck look so refreshed, and the best part is that I still look like me. I have always wanted to deal with the aging process on my own terms, and with your help, I have. I so appreciate your talent and skill." L.D.
“Dr. Kalus & Staff, This is to express my gratitude and appreciation for the wonderful care I received from you and your staff. I am very pleased and happy with the outcome. I would recommend your services to anyone looking for a more comfortable living with their body. Thank you again for the wonderful care.” L.P.
“Dr. Kalus, I wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the impeccable care you and your staff provided me for my recent rhinoplasty. As you know this is the second procedure you have performed for me and as before I am tickled with my results. It truly is still me, only better. I look forward to our continued relationship as doctor/patient & friends.” J.L.
“Dear Dr. Kalus, You are such a wonderful person and an extremely talented physician. Thank you for taking care of me and helping me through my procedure. There are no words that I can find to truly express my gratitude and admiration for you. My father said that “you were the best” and only demanded that you were the one to operate on me. It is so clear to me now, why he felt so strongly. May god continue to bless you and your family, for he has blessed me so graciously by bringing your skill, talent, and care into my life. I am very truly yours,” N.S.
“Dear Dr. Kalus, I am just thrilled with the success of my recent liposuction. I was born with a rounded belly that only got worse as I aged. Your surgery flattened my abdomen and gave me the motivation to take better care of myself through diet and exercise.” L.D.
“Dear Dr. Kalus, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for doing such a wonderful job on my breast augmentation a couple of months ago. This was something I thought about doing for a long time and I’m glad I finally did it. My results are very natural – I look like I did before I had my children and I couldn’t be more pleased. So a big thank you to you and your wonderful staff for taking such good care of me!” T.P.
"Dear Dr. Kalus, Thank you for a fabulous breast augmentation. I love it, my husband loves it and my friends can’t believe how natural my breasts look. I knew after our initial consultation that you were the best surgeon for me. Thank you for making my experience a positive one.” P.S.
"Dr. Kalus, Thank you so much for your excellent work. Your calm demeanor immediately put me at ease, and the whole surgery experience was way better than I ever imagined. My new chin and chest are absolutely perfect. You're the best!"
"Dear Dr. Kalus, As you know, I have been under your care for ten years due to my breast cancer. I would like to thank you for the outstanding care I have received during all my hospitaliztions and post care. Your bedside manner, plastic surgery/medical expertise, dedication to me as a patient and to you profession, are without a doubt the best I have ever knows. I can honestly say that without your constant commitment to me, I would not be writing this letter today. You have the ability to put a patient at ease and therefore I have always trusted you. In addition, you have managed to put together the best staff...they're are always willing to answer medical questions, insurance, procedures, etc. I commend you for your efforts. Please feel free to give my name to any prospective patient as a referral. My best regards and future success to you and everyone on your staff."

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, Dr. Shah, along with the staff at A New You. Breast Augmentation was something I contemplated for several years; however, I’ve always come up with at least ten different reasons as to why I shouldn’t spend the money or I would tell myself that if I made it this far with my breasts, I could continue with my life with the breasts. This past March I was forced to do some swimsuit shopping for a cruise. I spent hours at the mall and came home in tears because I was unable to find a suit that would hid the difference in the size of my breasts and if I found a suit that would hide the difference, I couldn’t fill it out. I decided it was time to get serious and do some research regarding breast augmentation. I researched the internet and found various doctors in the area. I made a few consultation appointments and when I visited Dr. Shah I knew that I wanted him to perform my surgery. I felt comfortable with A New You and Dr. Shah’s experience, excellent bedside manner and state of the art facility made me feel extremely confident that I was making the right choice. On August 19, at 7:30 am, I had breast augmentation and a lift on my right breast. Upon arrival, I was very nervous – my biggest fear was the general anesthesia; however, the anesthesiologist was wonderful. She and I chatted about New York and a baseball and by the time I walked into the operation room, I was completely at ease. When I awoke in the recovery room, it was apparent that the surgery was a success; everyone was excited and told me that I would be thrilled with the results. Later that evening, Dr. Shah telephone me at my home to ensure I was doing well. I was so touched that he would take the time to call me personally!! The day following surgery I visited the office and the bandages were removed. My first reaction was tears… it was one of the happiest days of my life. Looking in the mirror I never imagined that I would have two breasts that looked the same. Dr. Shah is not only an exceptional plastic surgeon and person… he is an ARTIST! I never expected to be so happy with the results on Day 2 – I can’t wait for the final results. Thank you Dr. Shah and Staff…" J.
"Consider this a “fan letter”. Thank you so much for your expertise in solving my neck and face problems. The operation was one of the best things I did in regard to my personal fitness. My recovery is almost complete and I am so happy it worked out so well. My neck really gave me nightmares what with that “goiter tings” and the very deep wrinkles. Thank you very much." N.
"Many people hear the words “plastic surgery” and immediately think only the self centered, egotistical, vain or rich people in our society have this done. They forget there are individuals like myself out there who have very low self-esteems. I am a 44 year old female. I am 5’2” and 100 pounds. I have five beautiful children (three girls and two boys) and soon to be a grandma. Many people tell me how pretty I am. That’s when I hang my head and say to them “you must be talking about somebody else.” Before my implants, I hated to look in the mirror. I thought of myself as not “normal.” My girls had larger breasts than I did ( even my 12 year old). How did that happen? I absolutely hated putting on a bathing suit; there was nothing there to fill out the top. In my mind<, I was deformed and very ashamed of my body. I have six sisters (no brothers). All of them are very beautiful, which normal size breasts. I would look at look at all of them and think what about me? I was always the one sitting in the corner not saying much. I was afraid to look people in the eye. Why did I have to feel so insecure about myself? I decided it was time to do something for me. I researched breast implants and went to see Dr. Shah. From the moment I tried on the sample, I was elated. I could not wait to have the surgery so that I could finally feel “normal.” I will never forget that first day after the surgery when the bandages were removed and I saw my body. I stood in front of that mirror and just stared. My implants are not huge and don’t look “fake.” Dr. Shah did an amazing job matching the breast implants with my body frame. With my body being so small, he didn’t have much to work with. Every day that passes I am more and more excited about how my breasts look. I am extremely happy with the outcome. I am sure there are some people who will never understand why I chose to have this surgery done or how I truly felt about my body before the surgery. Unless you are as insecure and shy about yourself like I was, it is hard to explain how something as simple as breast implants can change the way you mentally see yourself. I can finally walk in front of a mirror and smile. Dr. Shah and his staff made me feel so comfortable during the whole process and gave me the self-esteem that I have been searching for all my of my life. I am finally NORMAL! Thank you Dr. Shah for making me feel BEAUTIFUL!" S.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for the outstanding surgeries you have performed on me throughout the years. The results have always exceeded my expectations. The last surgery you performed on my face and arms has showed me once again the perfection of your work. The results of my face lift was so natural, it gave me that refreshed, youthful look I once had years ago. I am extremely please and amazed with my results. As for the liposuction on my arms, it was like a dream come true. After the procedure the recover was a little longer than what I expected. With time, the healing progressed and the results were worth while. I am truly grateful that I know a plastic surgeon with the outstanding talent and knowledge you provide, as well as the trust you have instilled in me. Thank you Dr. Shah, you’ve given me that extra boost of confidence. Now I can hold my head high and my arms open." M.
"I generally don’t fill out these surveys, however in this case I am because I believe Dr. Shah and his staff really took great concern with my situation. First, he made my heart the number one concern and contacted my heart doctor. I subsequently saw my heart doctor and both doctors made sure that this procedure wouldn’t cause heart problems. Secondly, Dr. Shah listened to my concern about having enough time off work with the one week and a holiday to heal. As it turned out, it was enough time so that I didn’t have to take additional time off work. Third, he realized that I didn’t want to go through another surgery at my age, so he was able to leave enough tissue so that I didn’t feel a compulsion to have another surgery. I really appreciate all Dr. Shah went through to make me feel comfortable and his expertise took away my apprehension about undergoing this surgery with this heart condition. He also made sure that I had this done in the hospital in case there would be a problem." S.
"Thank you thank you thank you! I love my new ears, when my friends and family say how beautiful the are. I say Dr. Shah did them (my Doctor). I also love putting [up] my hair and being like the other girls. I really thank you guys – you are the BEST! I’ve noticed that the name of your place is right- it is a new you! I can’t thank you any more I love my ears so much and you peoples are the best doctors in the world! Thank you thank you thank you so much." K.
"Like most people, I get really worried and concerned when it comes to surgery or any serious medical procedures. That’s why when I decided that I wanted to get a breast augmentation, I certainly did my research. By word of mouth, I cam across the Atlantic Center for Plastic Surgery and during my research, I got back great reviews and most importantly I found out that Dr. Davoudi is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and he is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. I decided to come in for my free consultation and during my appointment I felt very comfortable, the staff was great and friendly, I did not feel pressured to make any rapid decisions and they were very patient and informative when answering all of my questions pertaining to the procedure. It has now been over 5 months post-op and I am very pleased with the results. My experience was great and I would highly recommend the Atlantic Center for Plastic Surgery. I am very grateful for your services and keep up the great work!"
"After working out vigorously for over 1 year and even working with at trainer for 6 months, I could not get rid of the extra fat that was on my hips and inner thighs. My hips were not proportionate to my waist and if my pants fit my hips and rear, then it was super baggy at the waist. It was uncomfortable and I felt frumpy. After doing all that I could do through diet and exercise I decided to go to Dr. Davoudi for help in getting the body I knew I could have. His staff is super nice and very personal. I initially contacted them through email and I received a great email back with all my questions answered, not just a form letter some offices send to everyone. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Davoudi right away. We were on the same page as to the results I wanted. I felt like we were a team. He told me exactly the areas that needed work and how he would go about reshaping me. He also explained the recovery process and how long it would take. It has been three months now and I feel great! I am back to the gym and will continue to work on “all my areas”, but Dr. Davoudi gave me a great head start! I can see the muscles in my upper legs now that were previously covered in stubborn fat! Shopping for pants is great now! I can wear the sizes that I should been wearing all along! So far I have dropped 2 pant sizes. Thank you Dr. Davoudi and Staff!"
"Dr. Davoudi changed my life. The results of my breast reduction/lift and tummy tuck were outstanding. People are constantly telling me how great I look; The increase in my amount of self-confidence is truly amazing. You just can’t put a price on that. (Don’t tell Dr. Davoudi, but I would have paid double! I look that good!) I put myself totally in his hands, letting him tell me what procedures would give me the optimum results for my body type. And I am so glad I did, because the results far exceeded my expectations. If you are even considering plastic surgery, go see Dr. Davoudi. You will be so glad you did!"
"Words are just not enough to express the level of joy and happiness I feel when I look in the mirror today, two weeks after Dr. Davoudi enhanced my “life”. My arms and abs have been something that has always prohibited me from being who I wanted to be, and wear the cloths that I wanted to wear. Dr. Davoudi with his expertise and skill, along with his staff has given that back to me. From the beginning all the way to the end, Dr. Davoudi’s staff was all the most warm and extremely professional people I think I have ever met in a doctor’s office. He definitely has one heck of a team and I do not hesitate to recommend him to everyone and anyone needing a change to their body! Thank you to all of you for making my experience so very wonderful!"
"My concern was whether or not my expectations were realistic. I was hoping for a makeover, what I got was a miracle. Dr. Dovoudi gave me the body I’d always dreamed of. The life I saw for myself is now possible. Before the surgery, I had to stop smoking and that step set the stage for a total change in lifestyle. I lost weight before the surgery on a liquid diet, and that helped me to maintain my new figure after the surgery. The procedure itself was a pleasant experience because the hospital staff was friendly and professional. My recovery was made easier knowing that Dr. Davoudi and his staff responded quickly to my personal needs. I would recommend Dr. Davoudi to anyone looking to improve their body."
"After raising my children I decided to do something for myself. I had joined a gym and worked very hard for two years to get a body I would be happy with. But due to the scares from several c-sections that did not seem possible. Dr. Davoudi had the answers and skill that I was looking for. For the first time ever, my body is proportioned. I like the way I look in my clothes, and I am even wearing a two piece bathing suit. (Not bad for a grandmother!) I have been quite pleased with the whole experience thanks to Dr. Davoudi and his staff Wendy, Lauri & Julie."
"First, I would like to say that every time I walk into Dr Davoudi's Office I am greeted by a very professional, friendly, caring staff member. I always feel good just walking into the office. Dr. Davoudi himself has made such a huge difference in my life. When I came to him about a concern of mine he addressed the concern to a "T". Dr. Davoudi gave me good advice and suggestions on what it was I was looking for. My biggest fear when going forward with a procedure such as mine was that the doctor wouldn't take into consideration my concerns or wants. Well, I will tell you Dr. Davoudi gave me everything I hoped for and more! I want to say THANK YOU Dr. Davoudi for giving me the confidence I needed to help me succeed in my life. I always had this insecurity about me that was present and it showed! You have done so much more for me than what people can physically see. I am forever grateful!"
"I feel more confident now and happy to show my new figure. I was always the last in the picture because of my breast size. I can show myself and be the first in line."
"The office is very cozy and comfortable with friendly staff. Dr Davouidi is a sweetheart and made me feel very relaxed but cautious about the procedure I was to have. He had asked me to loose a few pounds before my abdominoplasty so that I would look better after the procedure and he was right. Dr. Davoudi is proud of his work and will work with you to accomplish a beautiful body. He seems like a very busy doctor which is a good sign of a successful plastic surgeon. He is very friendly and guides you through the entire procedure until you are satisfied. I was very much worried about the cost- but I am glad that Dr. Davoudi did an awesome job on me."
"My results from tummy tuck, breast implants, and liposuction are awesome. After having two children and gaining many pounds, my body looked terrible. No matter what I did or didn’t eat, no matter how much I exercised, I could not lose the belly flab. I now have a tight abs and can wear clothes that show my belly. I am so pleased with the way I now look. My breast implants are the icing on the cake. I nursed my son for almost two years. My breasts were deflated. Now they are full and I look so much better in my clothes. Dr. Davoudi is wonderful. I had been to three plastic surgeons and did not feel comfortable with any of them. From the moment I met Dr. Davoudi I knew he would be the one to perform my surgery."
"I researched Dr. Davoudi’s work on his website and was truly amazed at the artistry and keen eye this man has for beauty. My first visit to his office clearly indicated the superb attention I received when I arrived. At first, I embellished more fear than one could imagine, but once I spoke to Dr. Davoudi I knew I was in the good hands of a very special surgeon. I liked this Doctor immediately; he was right to the point and gently explained to me that the surgery would last about 2 hours. And… I was relieved to learn, being 58 years old and in good health I was able to have the surgery. This is a surgeon with compassion and a high level of confidence in what he does. He and his staff simply put me at ease, and truly let me know they were there for me. I highly recommend this fine and confident surgeon. As for the surgery? It was a breeze, and I did everything exactly as the doctor and his staff instructed, and my healing process was a piece of cake. I was up and shopping for new bras in just a few weeks. I was so elated over the new me, without the weight, headaches, and backaches, it was like a miracle come true. Since my surgery, I have not suffered one ailment as indicated above. Even my clothes and jackets all fit like they’re supposed to, and… some were even too big. I did not count on that and I was totally delighted to experience this. My only regret is, I wish I had done the surgery sooner. Dr. Davoudi literally changed my life. All throughout the process, I was taken care of in the utmost professional manner. Without any reservation, again, I highly recommend Dr. Davoudi and his staff for the incredible job they did to get me where I’m at today."
"Dear Dr. Davoudi, I want to Thank you and you wonderful staff from the bottom of my heart and for all your hard work, dedication, compassion, for doing a fantastic job, and so much more. You have not only sculpted me on the outside to be confident and beautiful but also on the inside. You have given me a lasting gift and a boost toward fulfilling my dreams. I'm so glad to have found a physician like you who is confident and absolutely exceptional in your work. Again, Thank you SO very much!" K.
"Wendy & Dawn, Thanks for helping me accomplish my Plastic Surgery goals." K.
"Dr. Davoudi, I cannot thank you enough for what you have done for me. You've made a devastating part of my life bearable and I feel I look better now than I did before. You're a very hard working person who I believe enriches the lives you touch. God Bless you." D.
"Dr. Davoudi & Staff, Thank you Dr. Davoudi for giving me a hole NEW look. I am enjoying myself and everyone is complimenting me as well. May God continue to bless your practice and your staff." M.
"Dear Dr. Davoudi & Staff, Thank you so much for all you did for me. I have never been so confident about my appearance. I am so happy with my results. My recovery has been much easier thank I every could have expected. I have never met such a kind, caring, intelligent doctor. Your staff was so helpful, thoughtful, sweet and professional. I look forward to having other procedures done by you in the future. Thanks again." J.
"Dear. Dr. Davoudi and Team, Once again I'd like to thank you for everything... I'd thought of having breast augmentation surgery for "years" but never followed through, not even going on a consultation. When a friend recommended Dr. Davoudi and raved about his work I decided to book my consultation. My experience with Atlantic Center for Plastic Surgery has been great from the moment I walked into the beautifully decorated (as an interior designer I appreciate these things), relaxing office and was greeted by smiling faces, beautiful smiling faces. It was important for me to find a surgeon I not only liked but could completely trust. Once I met Dr. Davoudi I instantly felt comfortable with his outgoing personality, reassuring confidence and attention to detail. Along with his friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable team my decision to go with Dr. Davoudi for my breast augmentation procedure was an easy one. My confidence was well placed! It has been 9 weeks since my surgery and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results and my post-surgical follow up care!!! I know I'll be back for future cosmetic procedures and have already recommended Dr. Davoudi to friends and will no doubt continue to do so. Look forward to seeing you all soon - (well except Dawn - Good Luck!)." J.
"Dear Davoudi & Staff, I just wanted to thank all of the professional, warm, and caring atmostphere you provided me before, during, and after my surgery. Knowing that I could count on all of you made my healing process so much easier. Words cannever describe the gratitude I have. Thank you so very, very much. Love always."
"Before I had my surgery, I felt very self-conscious less womanly than I do now, I grew up very flat chested and always wanted to feel and look more like a woman. Because of my fullness in my breast I feel more confident and feminine, but still like "me", which was very important to me. No one has every really noticed the change when I wear my clothes or they don't mention it to me - but I know and I feel bigger and more in proportion and that is really what matters. Thank you Dr. Davoudi and wonderful staff!! I am now a happier, more confident 37 year old mother of 2!" M.J.
"Dr. Davoudi has made all of my dreams come true. After having eight abdominal surgeries due to various medical reasons, I continuously exercised trying to rid my body of the excess skin. Nothing worked. This skin continued to haunt me. No matter what I did I couldn’t get past this issue. I was so miserable; so hopeless. Then one day I went to a website which eventually directed me to Dr. Davoudi. His staff was so warm and friendly. I felt so much peace just being around them. When I met Dr. Davoudi, he was so friendly and very understanding. I knew he knew what to do. I totally trusted him – and his staff. After my abdominoplasty was done, I couldn’t believe (neither could my husband) how great I looked – and how FLAT my abs where. I cried. I literally cried. I never, ever could have imagined in my wildest dreams that I could actually have a "wash board” ab look. Dr Davoudi did an exceptional job. It’s eight weeks after my surgery right now, and my husband says everyday that Dr. Davoudi did an exceptional job. I wish there was a way in which I could let him (and his staff) know how much my life has changed because of his work. My life will never be the same. I no longer feel insecure or depressed when I look at my abs. I look at them everyday in true amazement. I have never, ever been THIS flat in my entire life—not even when I was a child. I saw a friend of mine recently who also had abdominoplasty done 2 years ago. She saw my incision and was shocked at how much better my incision looked compared to hers (she saw different plastic surgeon). She decided that she is going to have another abdominoplasty done by Dr. Davoudi. He does exceptional work. My incision is 1/16’’ wide and is located within the bikini line. PERFECT. I couldn’t ask for more – or a better doctor, Thank you."
"After having chronic upper back pain and headaches for years and upon the recommendation of another doctor, I finally had breast reduction surgery in April 2006. From the first appointment with Dr. Davoudi I knew I was in good hands. Every step was explained in detail and what outcome I could honestly expect. When I was released to go home after the procedure and stood, I immediately felt relief and have had no recurrence of shoulder and upper back pain. My recovery was short and uneventful, thanks to Dr. Davoudi’s expertise and minimal incisions. Now that I have been reduced to a D from a size H cup, I can wear clothes that actually fit my frame instead of my bust line and purchase bras at regular stores instead of Intimacy, the specialty lingerie store. My whole experience was terrific and I ask myself, 'Why did I wait so long?'"
"Dr. Koch was incredibly understanding, thoughtful and gave me confidence in his expertise and opinion. He went out of his way to understand what I needed and went above and beyond in his services. He even gave me some ideas which I would not originally have thought of and the result was AMAZING. I highly recommend Dr. Koch from the most minimal of services to a more intensive serious procedure. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! 5 STARS to Dr. Koch--I'm so happy! Thank you!"
"A few months ago I went to Dr Koch for a consultation because I needed to get my body back after Pregnancy. I loved Dr Koch and his staff the moment that I met him and now I love my new body. My Breast Implants, my Tummy Tuck and my Liposuction have all turned out terrific and my husband loves it too."
"Dr Koch is a true perfectionist. Most importantly he is a very kind and compassionate human being and he genuinely cares about his patients. I had some lipo and breast augmentation by Dr. Koch and I felt so well taken care of and had complete access to him on daily bases after my procedure. It was important to me to retain my natural look and he listened and it was evident from his suggestions that he cared. Thanks to Dr. Koch and his kind staff. I would highly recommend him."
"I could not be happier with what Dr. Koch and his team have done for me!! He is my hero!! I am amazed how very caring he is along with his anesthesiologist, , who both called me after my surgery every day for the first two weeks to make sure I was doing okay!! I am so impressed with them. You talk about great customer service and a doctor who truly cares that you are happy and is most sincere-it is Dr. Koch!! I have recommended him to several of my friends and will continue to do so!! I would most definitely use him again, he is most talented and truly skilled-an expert for sure!! You will not be disappointed!! Thank you, Dr. Koch for giving my my motivation and spark back!!! Like I said before,'You are my HERO!!' "
"I have been going to Dr. Koch for the past 7 years, he is the only cosmetic surgeon I completely trust. His work is excellent and I would recommend him to any friend or family member. He is professional, yet makes you feel like your his friend or family. Dr. Koch is honest and tells you what to expect, he also offers very reasonable prices for New York area. Overall he is a great doctor."
"I would like to thank Dr. Koch for the beautiful breast procedure that he performed on me 3 months ago. I also like to extend my gratitude to him and his staff for all the help, care, and support that they have given me from my initial visit for consultation and even until today. His team of devoted individuals make my experience a pleasure. I am thankful for having Dr. Koch as my surgeon, who shows not only his talent and professional expertise but also his kindness and genuine care. I greatly appreciate his ability to listen and his understanding and being ethnically and culturally aware of my individual concerns. I am very happy and more than satisfied with the outcome. Dr. Koch, again, thank you so much for making my surgery a memorable one."
"My face was looking older and tired and I had put on a few pounds of fat while getting through those demanding years of raising children. I consulted with Dr. Koch because my good friend loves the work that she had done by Dr. Koch. I was a little scared to have a Face Lift and I was worried about the risks, although I did not know much about it and how easy it turned out to be. I wanted to do something to feel better about myself.During my consult appointment with Dr. Koch, he was so friendly and knowledgeable. He was also very patient with my endless questions. He intently listened to me for what I really wanted. I immediately knew that Dr. Koch would be MY surgeon and he agreed that a Face Lift and Liposuction would definitely improve my appearance. The staff at Dr. Koch's office are also very wonderful and supportive. It feels like I am part of the "family" when I visit. Somehow I got up the courage to show up on the morning of my procedures, and I am sure glad that I did! The Liposuction removed all of those ugly bulges in just one day! And my new face... Wow!... I love that! Now, I look in the mirror and I see a much younger and rejuvenated face rather than a tired and saggy one that made me feel old before my time. The people that I meet see a rejuvenated face too and treat me as if I am 10 to 15 years younger now, which is really how I feel inside anyway. Thanks Dr. Koch for helping me get back to where I used to be. I am loving it!"
"Dr. Koch and his staff were wonderful!! I had cosmetic breast surgery in the Tarrytown facility. I lost a lot of weight and wanted to get rid of my pancake breasts so I decided to go for a augmentation with implants. The morning of surgery the surgical staff was welcoming and friendly. My result is EXCELLENT!!! Very pleases with my whole experience."
"Dr. Koch is so kind. He helped make a very stressful time in my life. Faced with breast cancer and chosing whether or not to do reconstrution was not easy. He guided me and gave me all my options. My reconstructed breasts look better than my original breasts LOL! He is a true angel and a wonderful surgeon."
"This is the second surgery I have had with Dr. Koch and there is no one else I even considered and he did not disappoint. His office staff was professional courteous and helpful with even my silly questions. If you are planning procedures with this physician you are in excellent hands. He is not only professional but very talented and caring, not always attributes used to describe a physician, and I know because I work with physicians daily . thank you and yes I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr. Koch, and I came from Washington DC for this second procedure. I made a great decision."
"I moved from California to New York about two years ago so I needed to find a new plastic surgeon to replace my old surgeon. I went to a couple of consults before I met Dr. Koch. My prior consult experience was rushed and I left with an unsure feeling toward the doctor. After my consult with Dr. Koch I was sure it was my last consult. I finally found a board certified doctor who made me feel comfortable and impressed me with the time he spent thoroughly going over every detail of the procedure I was interested in. Not to mention he had such a wonderful personality and demeanor. I have had surgery in the past but this was by far the best experience I have ever had. Great board certified surgeon, great results, and great staff!!! What more could you ask for?" A.
"I was impressed with the office even before I came in for my initial consult. During my first phone call to the office, all of my questions were answered. Information on the practice, doctor, and the procedure I was interested in were mailed to me prior to my consult. Not only was I impressed with the staff but my experience with Dr. Koch was great!! He spent lots of time with me answering all my questions and going over all my options for a breast augmentation. I had a full examination, tried on implants, watched a video, and they also did computer digital imaging on my photo to show me an estimate of my post-operative appearance. The day of surgery, they made me feel very comfortable and at ease. The service and care I received before and after surgery was fit for a queen. I couldn’t have been any more pleased with my doctor and my results." B.
"Dr. Steely and his team are the most professional people that I have ever met. He was 100% honest with me throughout the entire consultation and procedure. I wanted a breast augmentation and I have a really small frame, so I could only go so big until it would start to look ridiculous. He respected what I wanted instead of trying to sell me a bigger size or other procedures. I never felt rushed in his presence. My case felt like the number one priority for his office even though I knew he had other patients. This was a life changing procedure; I needed someone that was compassionate with superb skills and Dr. Steely is exactly that. He always looked me in the eye when he spoke, very direct, but never arrogant or bored. Everyone at the hospital was wonderful and took great care of me throughout the entire procedure. It's been about 2 weeks since my operation but I was up and out the day after. My follow ups were just as warm and welcoming as my initial consultation. I now have a natural looking fuller figure and I can't thank him enough!!! I got exactly what I asked for and there is not a single friend or family member that that I've seen recently who hasn't complimented me on my new profile."
"I have been considering getting breast augmentation for a very long time but was too skeptical about the whole thing. After doing careful research, I decided to go with Dr. Steely because of his view of "be proportionate to your body" and not look overdone. During my consultation, he was able to answer my many questions with clarity which put me at ease. I personally hate going to the doctor but Dr. Steely and his staff made it so pleasant every time I was there. I decided to have silicone implants instead if saline. My husband who is also a doctor (not a plastic surgeon though) thinks they are the best job he has seen. Plus, there is no ridiculous wait time at the office as the staffs are efficient. So if you have to see him during lunch while at work, it is definitely doable. Overall, he has exceeded my expectation and I wish I would have got them in my early 20's and not waited till my late 20's."
"Dr. Steely is one of the most amazing doctors I have ever met. I came in for a breast augmentation consultation. The first thing that surprised me was the fact that he does complimentary consultations!! This was especially helpful since I had already seen multiple doctors that charged for their appointments. After meeting him, I knew that he was the perfect surgeon for me. Not only did he go over every single step in the process, but he was also very helpful in answering every question I asked. He also answered questions that I didn't ask but that he knew would be important for me to know. I was also surprised that after the many visits I have had to his office, never once have I had to wait. Unlike the many other office's I have been to, Dr. Steely makes sure to leave the entire appointment open just for you. It has been three months since my surgery and I have never been more happy. I am VERY happy that I chose Dr. Steely to do my procedure and would recommend him to anyone."
"I am a 27 year old female. I live a healthy lifestyle and work out regularly. Because I was an overweight child and teenager the impacts to my body was devastating to the appearance and youthfulness of my abdomen and breast! No matter the amount of healthy living I pursued, I had excess skin that would not respond. I knew my case had to be surgically addressed. I found Dr. Steely and he was the answer to my prayers! He was so warm and welcoming during the consultation I knew right away he was the doctor for me. The results are beyond phenomenal and more than I ever expected. I am 6 months post surgery and every day more and more improvements occur even when I thought it could not get any more perfect. My abdomen looks amazing and my breasts are beautiful and more proportionate. Dr. Steely helped me make an important decision about my breast lift considering I wanted to breast feed in my years to come with starting a family. He offered an alternative procedure that gave me the results I was looking for without the impacts to the functionality of my breasts. He has changed my life 100% and I am forever grateful for the care he gave me during this period. His hands are truly gifted and he will be my surgeon for life with any future desires. With the results it is clear that Dr. Steely wants to deliver the highest expectations with warmth and care and is a perfectionist in his work. I cannot say enough how much value these procedures have added to my life. Thank you Dr. Steely!"
"I recently had a tummy tuck and could not be happier! I had a c-section 2 years ago and could not get rid of the little pouch area. Dr. Steely was able to reduce the size of my tummy and now it is totally flat. I feel so good in my clothes and have really enjoyed buying new summer clothes and swim-suits. He has a wonderful staff and a beautiful new office. If you are thinking of doing something for yourself you should call Dr. Steely's office and make an appointment. Heather, Cindy and Dr. Steely are wonderful and will help you every step of the way. I would highly recommend Dr. Steely and his staff!"
"For years I have wanted a breast lift but felt it wasn't necessary with proper bras. After 5 years of discussion, my husband convinced me to at least research my surgical options. We are not from the Houston area and didn't have friends that could make recommendations, so we relied on our online research to choose surgeons to visit. Dr. Steely had amazing reviews on Citysearch and he was our first choice. During the free consultation, I explained to Dr. Steely the look I was hoping for. Dr. Steely explained that what I was hoping for could be achieved without implants ~ which I thought that it was great that he didn't try to convince me to have a procedure I didn't need. I was able to schedule a surgery at a time that was convenient for me. Dr. Steely, Cindy, Angela and Heather have been so professional and kind throughout the entire process. All of my needs and expectations have been exceeded! Dr. Steely has always been on time for my appointments. In fact, for two post-surgical appointments I have been at least 30 minutes early and he and his wonderful staff have fit me in. I have strictly followed all of Dr. Steely's post-surgical instructions and just six weeks after my procedure, my results are PHENOMONAL. So much better than I expected and I have very high expectations! I could not be more thrilled. I feel so much better in my own skin and I know that as the scars continue to fade, the only question I will have is WHY DIDN'T I DO THIS SOONER??? I am so glad I went with my gut instinct to trust Dr. Steely. I couldn't have gotten better results anywhere."
"Dr. Steely did my breast augmentation yesterday and I'm feeling and looking great! He's very professional and his staff was awesome! I arrived at his office 30 minutes before my procedure. They brought me back, hooked me up to an IV, and the surgery was underway. When I woke up, he and his staff were at my side in the recovery room. He even called me the evening of my procedure to answer any questions I had. I couldn't be happier with my decision and the price was better than I expected. If you're looking for a plastic surgeon for breast augmentation, consider using Dr. Steely!"
"I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Steely. He was so warm and reassuring throughout my consultation, surgery, and follow-up visits. He's very professional and has a great bedside manner too. And then there are my surgery results - I look fabulous!! I would recommend Dr. Steely to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon. You won't be disappointed."
"I was apprehensive about my consult for my breasts, though I have been thinking about it for years. Dr Steely made it easy. He met with me personally right at first, and took over an hour explaining all the in and outs of the procedure. He listened to all my questions and did not make me feel rushed. It was (almost!) pain free and I look and feel great! I would recommend Dr Steely very very highly."
"I met with Dr. Steely because I was interested in having a full body lift. I had lost over 100 lb after gastric by pass surgery and I was left with ALOT of loose skin. I was a kind of apprehensive about the consultation but, Dr. Steely immediately made me feel comfortable. His ability to put me at ease was comforting. Dr. Steely took all my feelings into consideration. My concerns became his. I had the first of what will be 2 surgeries 3 weeks ago, and I have never been so happy. Dr. Steely performed a tummy tuck and although all of the swelling is not gone the result are amazing. Dr. Steely has taken wonderful care of me. He managed my pain beautifully. I am excited about my future procedures and I trust Dr. Steely 100%."
"Dr. Steely was PHENOMENAL!!!! I went to him for breast reduction surgery. I consulted with several other doctors before deciding to go with Dr. Steely. The other doctors pressured me and made me feel like I was on a plastic surgery factory line, whereas Dr. Steely actually took time to talk to me and make me feel comfortable and he worked around my schedule, not making me wait for months before I could get in...not to mention he was also priced the fairest! : ) His work was great too, I'm always getting compliments on how great I look, and I feel GREAT! They completely look natural and like I'm 18 again! I would highly recommend anyone to go and at least consult with Dr. Steely!!!!"
"Don't you want to be able to say the same? Dr Steely did my breast reduction and liposuction - I am amazed at the results. Not only is he a talented surgeon, he is patient, kind and compassionate. I never have to wait before my appointments, and he is readily available to answer any and all questions I had. I am so thankful I found him - you will be too!"
"I couldn't sleep the night before my liposuction consultation. It wasn't the thought of surgery that made me nervous, but the unimaginable idea of letting someone actually look at me from behind. Literally, the thought made me sick to my stomach. However, my fear was all for naught! I felt instantly comfortable and at ease with Dr. Steely. And I mean instantly. I would say that his bedside manner and professionalism are his best qualities. I would, except for the fact that the results were absolutely amazing. So if I were asked to name Dr. Steely's greatest attribute, I'd definitely say his expertise. Fortunately, there's no need to choose - he's got the whole package!"
"Oh my goodness. I had great service (if going to the DR. is called service). The actual office is very inviting and the receptionist is awesome and friendly. Now Dr. Steely is the best surgeon I've ever seen. He is very open and truthful. He tells you straight up what to expect and how things will go as the healing continues. he know's what he is doing and would not do anything to mess up your physical appearance. Is a very kind man is very considerate of what you want."
"I had been considering eyelid surgery and some form of a face lift for a few years so in December I decided to schedule consultations. As many people are, I was somewhat uncomfortable about going to a plastic surgeon. Two of the Doctors I visited were arrogant, rude and only had a "cookie cutter” approach to surgery. Dr Steely was totally opposite. He actually listened to what I wanted and treated me like a real person. He used a problem solving approach to tailor the surgery to my needs. His follow up to surgery and genuine caring attitude were wonderful. Dr. Steely personally called to check on me the night of the surgery and had me return to his office multiple times so he could monitor my progress. His receptionist was friendly, always treated me with respect and never made me wait. I am extremely happy with the results of my surgery and would highly recommend Dr. Steely to my best friend! He is wonderful!"
"After looking on multiple sites for a surgeon for my breast augmentation, I chose to visit Dr. Steely based on his before and after shots, his accreditation and the great reviews he has received. I appreciated the free consultation since many surgeons charge for this. The office was so accessible and even had 1 hour free parking! You don't see that in the Texas Medical Center. There was no wait and I immediately noticed how kind and attentive everyone in the office was. Dr. Steely was very interested in what I wanted and more importantly--didn't want! He was very kind and sensitive to my concerns. I had my surgery a week ago and am so pleased. He recommended a wonderful size for my body that would give me the results I wanted. The surgery went incredibly smooth and after only a week, they already look fantastic! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Steely for breast augmentations!!"
"My breasts look FABULOUS thanks to Dr. Steely! He helped me pick the PERFECT size for my small frame and the incisions are so little! He is such a skilled surgeon and great communicator. You can completely trust that while in the operating room, Dr. Steely will give you his very best. The price for my surgery was also very fair. When you go to the office, you will meet Cindy and Heather, two fabulous ladies that will make you feel like a friend! Searching the internet for a plastic surgeon and be confusing and overwhelming, that is why I could not wait to give an honest review of my experience. I feel confident saying your search can stop here at Dr. Steely's office."
"I highly recommend Dr. Steely to anyone considering Breast Augmentation. He was exactly what I was searching for in a plastic surgeon - honest, friendly, personable, and reliable. I put my trust in Dr. Steely and absolutely love the results. He helped me pick the perfect size and perfect shape for my body type and I couldn't have asked for a better experience through out the entire process."
"I have been entertaining the idea of breast augmentation for years. Thinking of visiting a plastic surgeon just put butterflies in my stomach. I started asking questions about the procedure and a great friend of mine referred me to Dr. Lee Steely. The moment I sat and visited w/ Dr. Steely... I knew I had found my doctor. He immediately put my mind at ease and after listening to my thoughts and concerns, he knew exactly what I wanted. Dr. Steely was realistic, informative and spoke to me like a "normal person" so I could truly understand the full aspect of the procedure. The day of the surgery I had asked the surgical nurse if I could meet the person that would be responsible for the "closures" after surgery. She told me that Dr. Steely does the entire procedure from A to Z. At that moment I knew I could relax. Dr. Steely surrounds himself with a staff like no other. There was never a wait at his office and always smiling faces. I actually did my consultation and follow up appointments during my lunch hour. As far as my results... Why didn't I do this a Long Time Ago?"
"After nursing 3 children, I was suffering from a lack of self-confidence with the appearance of my breasts. Gone were the full, perky breasts I had as a young adult; no more cute tops or bikinis. I was finally ready to make a change and with the support of my family and friends, began researching breast augmentation and the top surgeons in Houston. One quick search provided me with a handful of doctors, including Dr. Steely. I immediately scheduled consultations with all 5 "top docs". My first consult was with Dr. Steely's office. Upon walking in, I was greeted by Heather with a warm, friendly smile. I spent the next 10 minutes with her describing why I was ready to make this change, and the expectations I had as far as final result was concerned. Throughout our conversation she was genuinely interested in my story and supportive of my decision. Next, I met with Cindy. I can't list her many beautiful qualities, but I can tell you that I felt as if I was talking with my sister. She has the ability to instantly calm your nerves. Any questions I had, she was ready with a quick, informative answer. Then, I met Dr. Steely. I remember the moment he walked in the room - my shoulders relaxed and my mind was at ease. I've never felt more comfortable with any doctor. He was nothing less than everything I was hoping for - kind, caring, honest, and most importantly he made me feel like his only patient. I walked out of his office, and immediately cancelled all other consults. I scheduled my surgery as soon as possible. A friend of mine had her surgery a week before me, and another is set for late August. Surely that in itself is enough evidence that Dr. Steely is one of a kind. I'm two months post-surgery and I'm still blown away when I look in the mirror. If you or someone you know is considering a breast augmentation, call Dr. Steely's office right away. I highly doubt you will find the same all-around treatment in any other setting."
"I got a breast augmentation from Dr. Steely about 8 weeks ago and I couldn't be more happy. The surgery takes place at St. Joseph's downtown. EVERY ONE that I came in contact with in that hospital were wonderful. I didn't not have one rude person help me. With this doctor I didn't feel pressured into getting the surgery and I didn't feel like he was telling me things that weren't correct just so I would agree to get the augmentation. If anything I was trying to rush him into letting me sign the papers! Another thing I appreciated about Dr. Steely is I told him what I wanted and he told me what he could do. I wanted to go as big as I could and he informed me that I could only go to a certain size because that is the max that my body can hold. If I were to go too big I would have a "uni-boob". My implants would touch underneath the skin and my cleavage would be connected under the skin. He informed me if I went too big that would happen to me and it is something that is very hard to correct. So of course I listened to him and I am so happy. I have recommended him to all of my friends and some have already gone for a consultation and we very impressed!"
"Dr. Steely has excellent bedside manner, is never hurried, takes your concerns seriously and is available after hours, if needed. He provides honest feedback about what he can or cannot do. His staff is very nice and helpful. They tolerated numerous calls from me when I was concerned or had questions I forgot to ask the Dr. I am pleased with my results and highly recommend him. You will be glad you went with him!"
"I found Dr. Steely through a friend that had recently had a breast augmentation by him,I had been wanting to get one myself but was skeptical about finding a good doctor. When I went for my FREE consultation, he and his staff made me feel at home, like no question I had was a stupid one. I didn't even feel like I had to or even wanted to consult with another plastic surgeon. After leaving his office for the first time, I knew he was the doctor for me. I scheduled my appointment one week later and have been VERY satisfied since. He is very professional, yet he treats you like you are family. St. Joseph's Hospital's staff are also very nice and helpful, they don't rush you out, and are always there if you need them. I couldn't be happier with Dr. Steely, his staff, St. Joseph's Hospital, their staff, or my results. Everything was PERFECT!"
"After doing an extensive search for the most prominent plastic surgeons in Houston, Dr. Steely was one of three we picked for a consultation. These three were well known in the area. Dr. Steely was by far the most personal and attentive to me and what I was wanting. His bed side manner is top notch. I never felt rushed. Even at the free consultation he would have stayed as long as I needed. Your time is important to him. Never makes you wait for your appointment, like some of his colleagues. Friendly and helpful staff round out the experience. St. Joseph's staff was also excellent! After the surgery I was never rushed to leave. Keep up the good work. Will recommend you to anyone."
"Words can not express how happy I am with Dr. Steely and my breast augmentation and tummy tuck! I was very nervous about going in for a consultation. After doing extensive research online I found 100% positive reviews for Dr. Steely. I called his office and set up a consultation - The consultation was FREE! When I arrived, the office was very warm and welcoming. Heather greeted me. She was very pleasant and professional and asked me what I was looking to have done. I then met with Cindy who was extremely down to earth & easy to talk to. I felt so at ease. Dr. Steely came into the room & immediately I felt more comfortable. I told him what my concerns were & he gave me his opinion & answered all my numerous questions. I did not feel rushed at all -- I knew then that I would choose Dr. Steely as my surgeon. When I left I had made up my mind. I figured I should just check with a couple of other surgeons just so I could see a comparison. There was no comparison at all -- Dr Steely by far exceeded my expectations. Not only was he personable, professional & easy going, his fees were by far the best I have seen. I immediately booked my surgery. Before my surgery, I called the office frequently & the staff was always pleasant and eager to answer my questions. I had my surgery on Dec. 11th 2007 @ St Josephs hospital. My whole experience at the hospital was exceptional - I felt no pain & the staff was great! My breast aug and tummy tuck went amazing - the scar on my stomach is very thin and has been healing rapidly. I am happy with the size of my breast aug & since I have returned to work, I have referred 2 people to Dr. Steely as they are so impressed with my results. One other thing I would like to mention is, Dr. Steely & his staff also refers you to a store to get fitted for your bra --- this was an added extra perk as I did not know where I should go. All I can say is Dr. Steely is an asset to the plastic surgery industry. I am so happy!"
"I am a very detail oriented person and have very high expectations. I did a lot of research online & with friends & nurses who had undergone various cosmetic procedures. After that, I created a list of 5 plastic surgeons to visit in Houston. I chose Dr. Steely without hesitation after meeting with the other surgeons for my tummy tuck, liposuction, and breast lift & breast reduction. I had all three procedures performed less than 4 weeks ago, first time for ANY surgery, at St Joseph's.The hospital was better than average, though I felt the hospital experience could have been improved. (The food was edible only, my intake nurse was EXCELLENT, but my recovery nurses were scatter-brained, but friendly) My actual results from the surgeries were excellent. I was back at work in less than a week, which was a lot sooner than I expected. My incisions are very narrow and the stitches are difficult to see if you are looking for them. (this is just 3 wks after surgery). Bruising was minimal, I only had significant bruising from the lipo areas, and that went away quite quickly. My breasts look great, my tummy is flat, and my saddlebags are gone! The staff at Dr. Steely's office is great. As other's have stated they are friendly, available, not condescending AT ALL, and very very helpful. None of the staff or Dr Steely will pressure you in any way to get extra procedures done (that was not the case with other surgeons I have visited) or "sell" you in any way. They are very sincere in their concern for you and your recovery, possibly even more so AFTER you have paid and gotten the surgery completed (again, not the norm). They go the extra distance to provide you with all the info and things you need to recover quickly and look your best (topical creams, endermology treatments, compression garments, antibiotic creams, sports bra, information packets, etc). Bottom line, I am not one to rate nearly any experience a 5 stars. I am a perfectionist. They met my HIGH standards. 5 stars!"
"Dr. Steely and his team are the most professional people that I have ever met. He was 100% honest with me throughout the entire consultation and procedure. I wanted a breast augmentation and I have a really small frame, so I could only go so big until it would start to look ridiculous. He respected what I wanted instead of trying to sell me a bigger size or other procedures. I never felt rushed in his presence. My case felt like the number one priority for his office even though I knew he had other patients. This was a life changing procedure; I needed someone that was compassionate with superb skills and Dr. Steely is exactly that. He always looked me in the eye when he spoke, very direct, but never arrogant or bored. Everyone at the hospital was wonderful and took great care of me throughout the entire procedure. It's been about 2 weeks since my operation but I was up and out the day after. My follow ups were just as warm and welcoming as my initial consultation. I now have a natural looking fuller figure and I can't thank him enough!!! I got exactly what I asked for and there is not a single friend or family member that that I've seen recently who hasn't complimented me on my new profile."
"I have been considering getting breast augmentation for a very long time but was too skeptical about the whole thing. After doing careful research, I decided to go with Dr. Steely because of his view of "be proportionate to your body" and not look overdone. During my consultation, he was able to answer my many questions with clarity which put me at ease. I personally hate going to the doctor but Dr. Steely and his staff made it so pleasant every time I was there. I decided to have silicone implants instead if saline. My husband who is also a doctor (not a plastic surgeon though) thinks they are the best job he has seen. Plus, there is no ridiculous wait time at the office as the staffs are efficient. So if you have to see him during lunch while at work, it is definitely doable. Overall, he has exceeded my expectation and I wish I would have got them in my early 20's and not waited till my late 20's."
"I turned out better than I could have ever imagined. Dr. Vanderpool and his staff have combined the most fabulous and talented staff, wonderful facility, and professionalism while still making me feel 100% comfortable as if I was surrounded by old friends. You are all AMAZING-as are my results!"
"After my consultation, I was very comfortable with your staff being very professional and courteous. You and your staff also personalized the experience. I love your staff. You made this great for me."
"I was very concerned that I would be just another patient or a "walking cashiers check". I never felt once that after I had paid for the surgery I was forgotten or not fully taken care of. My results turned out better than expected, but I feel Dr. V. and his staff made a huge difference in the success of the overall surgery."
"I called and made a consultation at another office the same day I made one with Dr. Vanderpool. After meeting him and his staff, I had no desire to consult with anyone else."
"Awesome staff and surgeon! Great experience from beginning to end! :)"
"I fell in love with your office with my first phone call. Everyone from the receptionist to Dr. Vanderpool is unbelievably kind. It's hard to find customer service like that anymore. Everyone made me feel so comfortable. I could not be happier with my time spent at Dr. Vanderpool's office."
"I still love walking into your office. Your staff is phenomenal. You're the best!"
"You guys are such a wonderful staff; you don't know how much you helped me. And with such a life changing decision, I felt at such ease. I couldn't be happier, and I owe it all to you guys. Thank you so much Dr. Vanderpool, you are such a blessing! Such a genuine doctor is rare to find these days. You are amazing! :)"
"The nurses were wonderful and I have never felt more comfortable. I'm going to miss coming in and seeing everyone!"
"I couldn't have asked for a better, more genuine physician."
"Dr. Vanderpool and his staff made me feel safe and was 100% concerned about my health first! The results were incredible and exactly what he said they would be."
"The staff was phenomenal!!! The sweetest ladies I have ever met. They made me feel very comfortable when coming in for such a personal procedure."
"I feel more like "me" now than ever! "
"I am very pleased with my results. Everything was wonderful - start to finish. The only regret I have is not having my surgery sooner!"
"I am so glad I chose Dr. Vanderpool's clinic; all of the staff have been wonderful! Love receptionists, financial and nursing staff! Dr. Vanderpool is not only so skilled as a platic surgeron, he is a warm and caring doctor who is professional but down to earth. Could not be happier with my results and with the clinic."
"Ya'll rock... All the ladies are super friendly- makes you feel good about yourself. And honestly, Dr. Vanderpool is AMAZING!"
"My surgery has been a dream come true (as silly as it sounds). I have wanted it for 10 years. I couldn't be happier."
"Thank you all for your exceptional care and attention to detail. You made me feel like I was the only patient in your office! Dr. Vanderpool had great professionalism with the perfect personal, friendly touch."
"The surgery couldn't have gone better, my recovery was shorter than I anticipated, and I'm feeling literally years younger. I'm wearing clothes I haven't worn in years--shirts that fit and button down the front! Dr. Vanderpool, you’ve made my day-week-month-year—DECADE. Thanks for the awesome job you did on this ‘slightly’ over-the-hill lady who thinks you’re the best! You can’t imagine what it’s doing for my self-image and it will just keep getting better. You absolutely rock and your staff is fabulous! Dr. Vanderpool is a fabulous plastic surgeon and a compassionate man. The whole staff is amazing and made me feel like I was a special patient."
"I'm so happy with my decision to get my breasts done by Dr. Vanderpool. My results are exactly what I wanted. The staff was nice and professional. They made me feel so comfortable. I have nothing negative to say. Wonderful staff!!! "
"Hello, My breasts are so natural; I had a guy call me a liar when I told them they were implants. At first everyone could tell. Now only a short time after, they are so natural, if I want someone to believe me I have to lift them and show the cuts. I have never been happier with anyone's workmanship as I am with yours. Thank You." M.R.
"I researched this clinic online and was drawn to it. Coming from another state, I was nervous, but the doctor and staff were so accommodating that my fears disappeared. I now am so pleased with my decision to have a breast augmentation and I owe it to my doctor for helping me with all my decisions. Thank you again. This has boosted my confidence." B.G.
"We just want to tell you how much we appreciate what you have done for us. We feel better than ever thanks to you! We really couldn't be any happier. Thank you!!!" D and L
"The procedures I have had done at Premiere Center for Cosmetic Surgery have completely changed my life. I look better at 49 years old than I did at 29. Shopping for clothes now is a pleasure instead of a depressing chore. My self confidence and self esteem are at a lifetime high. My improved physical appearance has brought new vigor to my 23 year marriage, it's like we are newlyweds all over again. Each procedure has greatly enhanced my appearance yet looks completely natural. The staff at Premiere, from my initial consultation to my last aftercare visit, has been exceptional. Everyone was completely professional yet also very kind and caring. I have traveled from as far away as Nigeria and Kazakhstan to have work done at Premiere, and would not consider having work done at any other surgical center I would like to sincerely thank all the surgeons and staff for their outstanding care and support. SINCERELY," C.D.
"I just wanted to say that I appreciate everything that you guys have done for me. I have never been so happy in my entire life. Everyone in the office made me feel very comfortable and it was a great experience. I have some friends that I have recommended to you. I have signed the papers at the bank, so everything should work out. I'm sending you my first payment this month. I thought they were supposed to start in January. I would like to pay the entire amount next month. I thank you for all you have done for me. SINCERELY," P.H.
"I am writing this letter to thank the staff for their help. A special thanks to Lisa for all the planning, answers to my questions, and knowledge of the procedure to ease my fears so I (could) go forward with (the) operation. I am very happy with the results and the post-op care you have provided. I will recommend this office to every person I meet who is interested in improving their lives. SINCERELY YOURS," R.T.
"I am very pleased with the results of my recent breast lift and augmentation. Where do I begin to say THANK YOU! Your work is outstanding and deserves recognition. I want you to share this letter with any patient that might be feeling the concerns and the fear that I did when I was considering surgery. For several years I have been very embarrassed about my breast. I would always hide my breasts from my husband because I hated the way they looked and it made me feel unattractive and something was missing in my life. I had to do something soon because it was affecting me emotionally and physically. I have always wanted to have this procedure done but was always very afraid. When I finally decided to go for a few consultations I went to your office first. When I met you, I saw how young you looked and it concerned me because I thought you did not have enough experience. However after meeting with several other Physicians with over 20 years of experience, I learned that they were stuck in the 80's and where not open to modern technology. After meeting with 5 Physicians I decided that you where the perfect Physician to do the surgery. You answered all my questions and your work exceeded my expectations. I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to answer all of my questions, addressing my concerns, informing me of what to expect after the surgery and for the outstanding commendable work. I can honestly say that your work has changed my life. I feel like a new person. I am confident and no longer self conscious about my breast. I cannot thank you enough. I pray that God continues to bless your work and that you continue to make future patients as happy as you have made me. Please feel free to show my pictures along with this letter to any patient that you feel may have the same concerns that I did. If you want me to come in and show the work in person, let me know and I will be happy to do so. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!" B.F.
"To Whom it May concern : I wanted to write a letter to inform you of my recent experience with your wonderful staff at Premiere. When I started to make my appointments for a consultation, I called your office and spoke with Kelly. She was very pleasant, professional and helpful. She actually answered the phone. I did not have to leave a message and wait for a returned phone call. This meant a lot to me because it gave me the push that I needed to schedule the appointment. When I arrived at my appointment I had the pleasure of meeting Kelly. She was as pleasant in person as she was on the phone. She informed me that I would be meeting with Lauren to discuss my questions and concerns. Lauren was very pleasant, professional and kind. She answered my questions in detail and introduced me to the doctor. When I met the doctor, I thought that he did not have enough experience to do my surgery. However after meeting with 5 Physicians, I teamed that the other Physicians who had over 20 years of experience, where not in tune to today's modern technology. The dr. took hi time when he met with me. He answered all my questions in detail and addressed all of my concerns. he is truly an outstanding Physician. His work exceeded my expectations. I could not have chosen a better Physician to do my surgery. The details of his work is truly amazing and deserves recognition. Dee and Anna where both there for me emotionally and physically throughout my surgery. They were both very Professional, Pleasant and Knowledgeable. They gave me the push that I so desperately needed. They spoke with me to calm me down darning my appointment for my blood work, and gave me the moral support that I needed the day of my surgery. Their professionalism deserves recognition as well. I could not have gone thru with the surgery without their support. I will be forever grateful. For the most part, my experience was exceptional and it was due to these individuals mentioned in this letter. They represent your Facility well. It's people like them that made the difference. You have a great team of individuals that work great together. IF you would like to discuss my experience any further, please call me." W.C.
"I just wanted to let you know how elated I am with the appearance of my breasts following the surgery you performed. They are absolutely perfect! I know I presented you with a difficult case because I had been previously augmented and my skin had stretched out following the births of my 3 children. I was on the verge of needing a breast lift but you discussed all of the options with me and recommended replacing my old implants with the high profile silicon implants which gave me the upper fullness and projection that I had before my children. So I got the perfect results that I was looking for without the additional breast lift surgery. I was also very pleased with the skill and care of the staff at Heartland Hospital. Everyone was kind, caring and put me at ease. Thank you and the staff at Heartland for all you did for me." M.B.
"I just wanted to let you know how much Mark and I appreciated the time you took answering all my questions. This has been a good experience for me. You do great work! Your staff is AWESOME!" W.P.
"After being in an auto accident which caused injuries to my nose, I decided to consult with Dr. Storm at Premier Plastic Surgery. He had repaired my carpel tunnel in a previous surgery, so I was confident in his abilities. Following my first appointment I knew I was in good hands. From the moment I walked in the door, the staff has been outstanding, courteous, knowledgeable, patient and kind. By the second appointment they knew me by name. Needless to say, the first surgery on my nose was a complete success. During the consultation for my second surgery, I decided to ask questions about possible plastic surgery on other parts of my body which had seen better days. Being middle aged and after three children, two c-sections, cancer and a radical hysterectomy my mid section had taken a toll. My neck area and face were also starting to show signs of age and Dr. Storm helped me realize there was help available. After doing the research and asking lots of questions I decided to JUST DO IT! I scheduled my rhinoplasty (nose job), neck lift and tummy tuck. At six weeks post op there is no doubt this has been one of the most positive things I have done for myself. The team at Premier Plastic Surgery and Heartland Spine and Specialty Hospital were helpful with every aspect of the experience. I have no negative feedback; Dr. Storm is a miracle worker with a caring bedside manner. I highly recommend anyone who is considering plastic surgery to set up a consultation with Dr. Brad Storm. Isn’t it time you did something nice for yourself and turned back the clock a good ten years (or more)? You deserve it and so did I!"
"I just wanted to let you know the work you do really makes a difference. I was nineteen when I first came to you to discuss a rhinoplasty. I was insecure about my appearance due to being born with a nose that was too large for my face. I was an honor student, involved with student council and had many friends but I couldn't get past the fact that I hated my nose. Fortunately, I had kind, supportive parents who recognized that this was a lasting life changing gift that they could give me and didn't minimize my feelings of inadequacy as silly and vain. You performed the procedure so competently and with a level of compassion and sincerity that I still remember today. My new nose was a nose that fit my face and seemed so natural that many people don't even recognize the fact that I had a "nose job". However, when looking through old photographs with family and friends (usually the same people who told me that I didn't need a new nose in the first place!) the response is always the same…"You look so much better with your new nose…your old nose was huge!". Have a nose that fits my face has given me the confidence to have a successful, happy, productive life. It's been several years since my rhinoplasty and I've never had a single regret about having the procedure. It has affected my personal appearance in a far more economical and lasting manner than spending my money on clothes and other accessories to make up for nagging insecurities about my looks. Someone commented on how good I looked just today and it made me think of how your skill and dedication changed the way I feel about myself and to let you know that the long lasting affects of your work is very much appreciated." J.E.
"As you know I had the unfortunate luck of inheriting my mother's frown lines between my eyes and as I aged they always made me look angry. Thank you so much for making me feel at ease from the very start and for me giving me back the fun loving facial appearance of my twenties. Your staff was so professional and caring of me both before and after the operation. It was wonderful to be at work a week later with no visible signs of surgery. I will highly recommend your practice for anyone wanting an "eye- opening" experience!" J.B.
"My experience and results with my labiaplasty / vaginoplasty combo surgery was phenomenal. Dr. Gonzalez did a superb job taking care of me pre and post op. He is a very caring physician. I have had 5 children and never dreamed my vaginal area could look like I've had none. It is awesome and I love it! Thanks for everything." D.W.
"Thank you Dr. Moore for giving me a great Bod!"
"Dr. Gonzalez, Abby, Sylvia and Everyone at PPS, Very delayed Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Best wishes always from a very pleased customer!"
"B&R, I just want to thank you one more time for the special care and thoughtfulness you both showed me. Betty, you'll never understand what your big hug meant to me the other day. Special thoughts will always be with both of you."
"Dr. Storm & Staff, My cups runneth over."
I was seen after a Moh's skin cancer removal. Dr. Spittler performed the closure. I am very happy with the immediate results. Two weeks after surgery, no one can find the scar. It's amazing! D.A.
Everyone at PSS was great. The care and concern is evident in everything they do. Dr. Lowe is awesome and I am very pleased with my results. For anyone who wants to feel better about how they look when aging - this is about you - do it! L.P.
I am really happy with the way everybody treated me here from the first day scheduling to the comfort in the OR. Everyone was friendly and professional. The warmers in the Pre-Op and the OP were great! Dr. Buhrer did a fantastic job and I would recommend him to anyone who needs surgery T.G.
Experience was great. I have had several procedures with PSS. My experience with Dr. Spittler and his staff has been one of the best. My results were great! W.E.
My whole experience [with Plastic Surgery Specialists] was positive and at each step I continue to feel confident that I chose the best surgeon in the Annapolis area. Since this type of procedure is elective I believe that it is important to trust not only the physician but all of his staff that you come in contact with. H.L.
As I approached age 50, many wonderful things were happening in my life. However, I have been unhappy with my breasts and tummy for quite a while. I decided that now that the kids are grown I deserved to do something for myself for a change. So, I started checking around and Plastic Surgery Specialists came recommended by people more than a few times. Dr. Paul Buhrer and his staff have been incredible from the very beginning. I have to admit that the closer I came to the actual surgery date, I became very anxious. About a week prior to the surgery I had my pre-op visit with Dr. Paul Buhrer. He answered all of my questions and calmed my fears entirely. I cannot tell you how pleased I am with the outcome of the surgery. I only wish I'd done it sooner! R.T.
"You have such a great bedside manner and that definitely made my recovery much easier than I had anticipated."
"I was trying on some clothing at a store here in town and happened to notice this woman who had the most beauty breasts. As it turns out the owner of the store told me that Dr. Poulos performed her breast augmentation and "yes” her breasts are beautiful. I made the call and I am glad I did. He gave me exactly what I wanted." L.J.
"After hearing Dr. Poulos’ name over and over again from other women, I decided to make a consultation with him. I have 2 children and had nice full breasts before and now later in life, I felt that I wanted to restore what I had lost. My first contact with the office over the phone was great! I got a lot of my little questions out of the way; and I was told what I would happen at my consultation. After meeting with Dr. Poulos and his staff my decision was made. He honestly gave me his opinion and told me what would be the best procedures for me that would give me the fullness and rejuvenate my breasts. It has now been 5 years and I am so pleased. I would recommend Dr. Poulos to any one that is considering breast surgery. He is an artist that listens." C.C.
"It took me 5 years to make my decision to have breast augmentation done. I had interviewed 5 different physicians and Dr. Poulos was the last physician that I interviewed. From the moment that I walked into the office I felt so comfortable with the staff and the organization of the office. The consultation room was very comfortable and inviting. Dr. Poulos explained the procedure to me and also discussed options for incision sites depending on my pre-operative breast size and shape. At the examination, I was so well educated and I felt that he listened to what I wanted to achieve. He explained and created the best procedure for me. In the end I had my surgery done 4 years ago and I would do it all over again. I am so pleased that I did my research and chose Dr. Poulos and his staff to care for me and give me the self-confidence that I had always wanted. My friends are so jealous." N.C.
"Dear Dr. Poulos, I am so thankful and so fortunate for your excellent and unparalleled skill and talent as a surgeon; but more so for your kindness, genuine caring of your patients, and wonderful sense of humor. You’ve made the experience and journey both exciting and rewarding." K.C.
"Dr. Bennett and the staff here in Riverside have always been completely professional and friendly. The facility is always very clean and comfortable. I would recommend Dr. Bennett and her services to anyone."
"Words cannot express the gratitude and admiration I have for Dr. Bennett, her understanding, kindness, and great skill... It was reassuring that her staff was very friendly, courteous and non-judgmental. Dr. Bennett worked diligently to ensure my happiness and realistic ideal. The end result was so much more than I could have hoped for."
"My husband and I would like to thank you for your professionalism and courtesy pre and post operation. It was most refreshing."
"My first thank you is for... correcting my breathing situation... how wonderful to be able to ...breathe without manipulating my face... We then thanked the Lord for gifting you with hands that allow you to perform surgery...You are an amazing surgeon...Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"Dr. Bennett was very nice and did just what I needed to be done. We are happy with the job she did. Thank you!"
"From my first consultation... I had a very positive experience and was given all the information I needed to make an informed decision... Dr. Hardesty is extremely personable, knowledgeable, and experienced. I am so happy with my results, it's amazing!"
"I can't begin to thank you enough for all you have done for me. I'm truly a new woman with a high self esteem. I feel better than I ever have and I have you to thank!"
"Thank you so much for the super job you did on my recent surgery. I really appreciate your efforts on my behalf."
"Thank you for all you've done for me to give me the lift - the boost - the added confidence through the expert surgery. Should you have a potential patient who needs a former patient recommendation, please don't hesitate to call me!"
"I felt comfortable with Dr. Bennett from the second I met her... I have recommended the office and will continue to recommend them to people looking for a friendly, caring and awesome plastic surgeon/office staff."
"My experience at Dr. Hardesty's office has been over the top excellent... He has the unusual quality of being both perfectionist, but with a fantastic bedside manner...the staff is equally friendly and helpful, always doing whatever they can on my behalf. I will recommend him to anyone wanting a surgeon they can trust."
"I want you to know how much I appreciate you and your staff... You spent quality time with me as I found you were so easy to talk to...Your staff compliments you tremendously very professional, warm, kind and friendly, which made me feel special."
"Thanks so much for the wonderful treatment I received. I am very happy with my results and will highly recommend you to all my friends and family!"
"Words cannot adequately describe how thankful and grateful I am to Dr. Bennett! Her expertise in the operating room astounded me - my results were beyond what I had truly hoped for... Her attentiveness, careful concern and thoroughness is remarkable. Her staff is amazingly accommodating... I would recommend this practice and Dr. Bennett... to anyone!"
"It is nice to know that there are still people who take such pleasure in doing special things and making others feel so good...Thank you. You are really someone special. Thank you for, treating me with kindness, before and after surgery."
"Wonderful staff, extremely courteous and helpful."
"Dr. Bennett made me feel extremely comfortable and I learned to trust her with all my questions and concerns. All of the staff is extremely well mannered and welcoming... Everything was as best as it could have been!"
"Dr. Hardesty has a very skilled hand and wonderful bedside manner. I would trust Dr. Hardesty with all my cosmetic procedures. Very pleased with my results!"
"From the person over the phone, to the looks of the office I had a great impression of the whole staff. Everyone is dedicated to professionalism and strongly organized. Very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Thank you... for making my experience so wonderful."
"Thanks so much for the wonderful treatment I received. I am very happy with my results and will highly recommend you to all my friends and family!"
"Thank you so much for the super job you did on my recent surgery. I really appreciate your efforts on my behalf."
"I just wanted to take a moment to let you and your staff know how wonderful my plastic surgery experience has been with your office! I previously worked in the medical field for 16 years and had always heard from physicians and previous patients how wonderful you were as a surgeon and have been privy to see your work. I knew when the time came for me that you would be the one I choose to do my surgery. I did of course consult with several surgeons but ultimately choose you. From the moment I contacted your office your staff was nothing but pleasant and professional. Previously working in the field, patient customer service is a huge issue for me! Of course the true test was when I did come for my consultation. You and your staff continued to live up to my expectations in person. I have since had my surgery and have worked and spoken with several members of your staff during the last months and in recent weeks. Each one of you has always been professional, compassionate, polite and patient with me and my questions. I extend these compliments to the surgery center staff as well."
"I just wanted to thank all of you at the center - from the wonderful people in the front office to Dr. Leake and his surgical staff. You were all so kind and made me feel safe and secure when I was there to have my "Tummy Tuck". Thank you all again, so much!" P.L.
"My journey is completing - Thank you all so much!"
"Many Thanks for a wonderful experience from beginning to end. I'm thrilled with the results & more thrilled to have met such awesome people."
"Thank You so very much for each and every part you all play in this wonderful and outstanding office everyday! Much Love - Enjoy Happy Spring From Caterpillars to Butterflies you have all assisted in my transformation! Smile and Fly High You Beautiful Butterflies Thanks Again!"
"With warm appreciation for all you've given of your time, your energy, and yourself in the job you take such prinde in. I want to thank you so very much for giving me my quality of life back."
"Thank you so much for your outstanding patient care, and for my incredible results. I was very comfortable and well-informed from start to finish. My results were better than I expected! I will recommend PSC to all of my friends and family. Thank you! Thank you!"
"Thank all of you for a wonderful experience before, during and after my rhinoplasty last month. I am so very happy with my results and it continues to get better each day. Every time I came into the office everyone was all smiles and very comforting. Dr. Weisberg, you always made me feel at ease and okay with surgery and recovery. I received my before and after pictures in the mail at my new address in Missouri. Thanks for sending them so promptly. I wish all of you the best and will definitely be back if I need anything else!" J.M.
"Dear Dr. Weisberg, Bonnie, Ellen, Krista, Christy, Erika & Penny... For everything you've done... for being the special people that you are... thank you so very much." C.W.
"As in our first letters, I know I tend to gush over all you folks about all you have done for and mean to me, but I dare not think where I would be today without you. You will find this funny. The other day a friend gave me a hug and said, "oh, I wish my breasts felt this firm!" November 9th it will be 3 years since my surgery with Dr. Weisberg. Sometimes I can't believe it's been this long and some days it all feels like yesterday. Of course some days I really miss that part of me that could feel my husband's touch (TMI?) But, you folks did something amazing for me. You allowed me to get on with my life. During those months with you, with the prior surgeries, infections, poor reconstruction and then the second cancer diagnosis, I needed someone to take over. I was tapped out. I couldn't see one more step in front of me. And you folks took my crumpled mind and body and compassionately walked me through the tunnel until I could see some light. In reading the testimonials on your website I know many people say similar things. I don't want to infer that what I went through was greater than your other patients, but I think it was different. I have never been sick before. I was scared of this disease called cancer, and I had to hear that word twice. What I was told would be two surgeries turned into four before I met you. All the promises of sacrificing one breast for a positive reconstructive outcome were dashed when I was left with a broken, numb chest. The thoughts go through your mind. Will I recover from this disease? How much will cancer take from me? Will I ever stop feeling self conscious in front of my husband and dare to stop wearing the camisole to bed? I have the unique position of experiencing the differences of two plastic surgeons. I know the difference between a devastating outcome and an artist's touch, extreme pain days after surgery and amazing mobility and manageable pain within days. But most of all, is the cloud of despair lifting away to rays of hope. I have Dr. Weisberg and all of you to thank for that. I know this email is wordy. I just felt like writing when I saw your email, and the "anniversary" of all of this rolled around. I hope you all never forget what you did for us." C.B.
"I was so very impressed by the heartfelt sensitivity, understanding, compassion and care that I received by everyone I came in contact with at The Plastic Surgery Center. They really are a dream team of absolutely outstanding, generous and highly skilled people, and I was blessed to have them in my corner and looking after me through the whole process. Everyone was so kind and giving of their time. Bonnie, and Erika were an absolute delight to deal with. Krista and Ellen were so knowledgeable, considerate and thoughtful that I was completely prepared and very comfortable when the day came for my surgery which I elected to have without anesthesia. Awake in the operating room, I was so relaxed knowing that Dr. Weisberg, Laura, and Christy were there watching over me and working their magic to fulfill my desire of a more youthful appearance . I was surprised at how peaceful and painless the whole procedure was with Ellen always nearby to hold my hand if necessary. Dr. Weisberg is truly a cosmetic artist who surrounds himself with a team of very special individuals and I would highly recommend him and his wonderful staff to anyone considering a cosmetic procedure. Thank you all!" M.
"Thank you so much for being so open and informative at my Consultation this past week. I look forward to my procedure with full confidence in your office."
"I am thrilled! I'm thinking why did I wait so long to do it." J.P.
"I am ecstatic!! I feel like a complete person and I feel very grateful to your office." L.G.
"Dr. Weisberg is a "10"! Happy, happy, happy, happy. Could not be more pleased. Dr. Weisberg and staff made this surgery a highlight in my life time experiences. I adore all of you." B.F.
"Dr. Weisberg is confident, funny, and calming. Everything is wonderful!!! I'm so glad I went with a C cup." S.A.
"I felt very well cared for. My breasts are excellent as natural as can be." H.F.
"Dr. Weisberg is funny and helps people build their self esteem. I like his confidence. I would do it again if I had to. Keep the good work." T.T.
"I love it (them)!! He did a terrific job. Dr. Weisberg has an excellent reputation as he so deserves." L.A.
"Dear Dr. Furnas, Dr. Canales, and all the fancy girls, It is just so darn sad you made me so perfect because I won’t be needing to come see you all all the time. Thank you everyone for such a wonderful experience. Everyone made it so much fun, and I felt so safe and protected on my surgery day. I am so happy!" H.
"You have changed my life in so many ways and I truly want to thank you. The staff was so helpful and welcoming and each visit was memorable. And you, Dr. Furnas are so kind and I just knew you were the doctor for me. I was so nervous with many other emotions and meeting with you the day before my surgery helped me to know I would be in good hands. It is amazing how my confidence has risen and am so much more outgoing! This summer should be truly fantastic. The cute suits I can wear and actually enjoy time with friends. You have a special place in my life and you have a great gift! Again thank you for taking such great care and changing my life for the better!! I truly thank you Dr. Furnas & staff."
"THANK YOU SO MUCH for my beautiful new nose! I am so IN LOVE with it. Here it is, 6 weeks after surgery and I am already feeling more "at home" with it than I ever was with the old one! I also need to thank Christina and Jen for being so patient with my numerous questions and attentive to my pre-op and post-op care. All of you really put my mind at ease and I feel 100% terrific about the decision to "invest in myself" this way. Lastly, please also thank your wonderful nurses and anesthesiologist for me. I know they did an excellent job because I don't remember a thing!"
"Thank you for taking such excellent care of me and making this process so smooth. I appreciate it very much! You have given me back something that has been missing – confidence and self-esteem! That means more than you realize! I feel like a beautiful, sexy woman again. Thank you! Please thank your staff for always being so warm, welcoming and friendly."
"I wanted to thank you for your wonderful work yesterday during my surgery. You have a true gift as a surgeon. An ability to take something on the body that is not very becoming and turn it in to something so lovely that takes a very special talent. I feel like the ugly duckling who has been turned in to a swan. I so very appreciate it. You and Dr. Furnas have a wonderful skillset, but what sets you apart is your warmth and compassion that you give to each of your patients. I felt that in every part of my surgery day. I thank you again for everything."
"You are beautiful people who spend their time making others look better. Thank you is not really enough, it is only the beginning." B.C.
"Your entire staff, with all of their smiles and wonderful personalities, makes each and every person feel special." C.B.
"Thank you for making us feel so welcome and special every time we walk in the office." C.G.
"You and your staff have been very caring during and after my surgery. I would definitely recommend you to anyone considering plastic surgery." P.L.
"There was always someone available to answer my questions and listen to my worries." V.J.
"I feel well cared for and beautiful." B.E.
"We had heard good reports about Dr. Moynahan through a few different friends. We each went in to get her opinion, and then within a week of each other, Jane had eyelid surgery and I had moles on my torso removed. We are very pleased with our results. We think so highly of Dr. Moynahan. She respects your privacy, and is very caring and empathizing. She has a wonderful, easy-going personality. Although she's extremely busy, you'd never know it when she walks into the room to see you. She makes time for you. She has an incredible constitution that way. Everybody in the office is quite obliging, and very nice. They treated us very well. The office is exceptional. The waiting room is large and home-like; nothing looks medical about it. Everything including surgery is done in the office. They have an operating room and a recovery room. We had a very good experience, and would refer someone to Dr. Moynahan without hesitation." S.
"Dr. Moynahan made me extremely comfortable in my skin. I love the fact that I can go somewhere 10 years later and people say that I look younger now. No one knows I had work done - I have no scars, no pulling around the eyes - and no one believes I'm 50. I first went to Dr. Moynahan 7 years ago, after I heard her name 3 times from 3 different people in 1 year. I interviewed her and two male doctors. She was the most conservative. She has limits and boundaries on what she will do. If she says it's not going to work, you've got to listen to her. She isn't interested in taking your money - she wants you to be pleased with the results. That's how she won me over. I also like that she's very easy to talk to. There's something nurturing and safe about her. Dr. Moynahan is extremely careful. While I was on the operating table to get my upper and lower eyelids done, she called in the dermatologist from her building to look at a rash on my forehead. I had the rash for about a week, but hadn't really paid much attention to it. IT turned out that it was a virus that could have possibly put my eyesight at risk if I had had the surgery. I'm very satisfied with Dr. Moynahan. I've referred over 25 people to her, and she has never let me down." J.
"I'm in good physical condition - I'm in the military, and I work out six days a week - but I still had problem areas that wouldn't budge. When I made the decision to have liposuction, I got referrals from my brother, who is a surgeon, and a couple of friends, and did some investigating on my own. After a consultation with Dr. Moynahan, I knew she was the right choice. I felt comfortable with her, as a woman and a doctor, and I was impressed with all she has been involved with and accomplished in her field. I had liposuction on my inner and outer thighs and hips in November 2005, and I was back at the gym in 7 days. Thanks to Dr. Moynahan, I beat genetics - I'm smaller, and I'm happy. I love everyone at Dr. Moynahan's office - from Betsy, the receptionist, to Lori, Dr. Moynahan's nurse, to Tammy, the nurse anesthetist - they all put me at ease and made sure I had a really good experience. I am a medic and work alongside nurses and doctors every day. Lori is one of the best nurses I've seen. She always has a smile on her face, and is so supportive and motivating. Dr. Moynahan is amazing. She is very informative and answers questions right away without hesitation. She usually describes the whole procedures in detail so you know what to expect, but I only wanted to know the bare minimum, and she respected that. I was swollen 3 days later, and Dr. Moynahan said to stop by and she would look at it then. That to me is caring - most doctors would not do that. I am recommending Dr. Moynahan to my mom, that's how good I feel about her." A.M.
"Dr. Moynahan has taken 15 years off my face! I had a face lift and eye lift in 2003, followed by Sculptra a year-and-a-half later. My friends used to say I looked so tired, but not anymore. I feel and look great! I've got a perky, more youthful appearance. Through it all, I've had a really positive experience with Dr. Moynahan, the RNs and her very nice office staff. I've referred several people to her. She's not only a great surgeon; she's so easy to talk to. I feel relaxed with her. After just a few times in her office, I felt like I had known her for years. I've also had a great experience with her skin care products. My 14-year-old son had a problem with acne, and after using her acne products and having two peels in the office, his skin is smooth and clear. I wash my face with her anti-aging products and use her sunscreen - it's one of the best, it gives me a glow like a moisturizer." N.
"I chose Dr. Moynahan because of her great reputation, and how at ease I felt during my first visit with her. In June 2006, I had Sculptra facial injections. I am very pleased with the results. I took a month off from work, and when I went back everyone was asking me what I did. They said I was glowing, but they couldn't quite place what was different. I was really happy that it was natural enough to not be obvious. Dr. Moynahan took the time to sit down with me and listen to all my thoughts and concerns. She listened and then made suggestions. She will not do a procedure that is not right for you. Some doctors may be willing to take your money and do what you want, but she won't do something unless she is confident you will look natural and be satisfied with the results. That meant a lot to me. I can honestly say this is the best doctor/patient experience I have ever had. Her staff is also excellent. They are friendly, compassionate and comforting. They are always there to help if a question should arise. I now go there for regularly scheduled microdermabrasions. I also use her skincare products and have noticed a significant difference in my appearance." L.
"I had an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) in August of 2005. I developed an infection which healed with a hole in my abdomen and required additional surgery. Having no faith in the physician who performed the abdominoplasty, I went to Dr. Paula Moynahan. I can't begin to explain what a wonderful person Dr.Moynahan is. In June of 2006, Dr. Moynahan performed a scar revision on the hole that was left in my abdomen. I am very pleased with the results. I would trust Dr. Moynahan with my life. I tell everyone that she is just absolutely a wonderful person. I can speak with Dr. Moynahan as if I was speaking with one of my friends. She is just great, and I love her." J.
"Thank you for taking such good care of me during and after my surgery! You and your staff were amazing! My big “thank you” goes to Marie, who has been so patient with me and million of my questions! I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I wish you a lot more happy patients like me in 2012!" O.S.
"A belated thank you hardly seems appropriate for all your expertise and care that was given to Randi. It meant a lot to us. You must have wonderful feeling inside yourself to know something so small can make such a difference in someone’s life. Breathing peacefully is a gift and you were the only one we thought or knew could do this with such professionalism. Your skills go beyond. It’s that personal concern that comes from within, always keep that with you that’s your gift. We’re very grateful to have you in our lives." R.P.
"I can’t thank you enough for the help you gave me a few weeks ago. You are a wonderful and compassionate Doctor and a credit to your profession. My diagnosis with breast cancer was a very low point in my life but I am trying to focus on the bright spots now and visiting your office was at the top of the list!" K.S.
"I would like to take this time to thank your staff and you for the professional care, I received. Again I thank you for the expertise in putting my body back together. May God bless each of you!" K.S.
"Words cannot express my appreciation for everything you’ve done and taking in consideration the insurance my daughter did not have at the time of her accident. As you may know I’m a nurse and I do this ‘cause I love helping people. I’m just glad to have experience that in this field is mostly about “the money” someone like Dr. Wigoda has a heart and cares. Thanks once again Hopefully one day her father will be able to say or write “Thanks” so he can personally tell you – on behave of her father Edgar." G.
"Thank you for everything you’ve done for me, big and small! I really appreciate how you always keep calm, cool and collected while I freaked out! You made me feel more comfortable and relaxed. You’re a wonderful doctor, but on top of that, an amazing person!" E.M.
"Just wanted to thank you again for the great work that you do as well as your wonderful, and professional staff. I am so happy with my new look. It seems to get better every day. I also wanted to remind you to forward my before and after pictures. I would like to have then to send to my family up north." L.L.
"I wanted to let you know how our son A.V. is doing. You see you not only saved my sons arm, but you saved his life. Anthony from high school drop out will now Graduate from UF this June with a Masters Degree in Accounting. He used some of the money from his case to go to school, and buy us a home in Coral Springs. You see your remarkable skills, and continuing care has blessed an entire family. God bless you and thank you!!" V.
"You once told me, just a few bumps in the road, you have a long life ahead of you. There are no words that I can express for you giving me that long life ahead. Thank you...for the million little ways you make a difference." M.B.
"Paul, it was March 4, 2009 that we first met at the operating room at Broward General Hospital. I wish it could have been under different circumstances. Since I had an accident involving a table saw that removed the tips of two fingers and severely injured another on my left hand, it seemed funny that we both still had a sense of humor under this situation. Remember, I quipped that “my days as a hand model will be over.” (I’m not a hand model!) Thanks to your skill as a surgeon, I now have nearly complete use of all the digits on my left hand. In the months of follow-up treatment, your jovial attitude and tenacious spirit to give me the best treatment humanly possible, was appreciated by me more than you know. So, it’s with sincere heart-felt gratitude that I thank you for giving me complete use of my digits." T.R.
"Than you for taking care of me so well and helping me to regain my youth!! You always do such excellent work!!" C.D.
"It has been six months since my surgery and I could not be happier with the results. Dr. Wigoda, you are truly an artist! I wanted to say thank you for being so patient with me prior to the surgery, with all my questions! I believe you said I hold a new record. Post Surgery I look back and feel silly for being so nervous. Everyone made me feel so comfortable the day of my surgery and the recovery has gone very smoothly. I got exactly what I wanted out of this and would recommend you and your staff to anyone. You are all top notch. I look forward to visiting the office in December when I am back in town. Thank you for everything." E.W.
"Thank you for everything you did for me. You are truly the “miracle Doctor” words cannot express how grateful I am to you and your staff. Thank you for making me feel like a person and not just a number!!" J.N.
"I have never been able to express my gratitude for what you did for me. You literally saved my life. I am a firm believer that God puts special people in your life for a reason and even though it has been a year later, I will never forget what you mean to me and what you did for me. You didn’t have to take my medical complications on. You were not the one that “messed” me up. My family and I were at a loss, I did not know how much more pain I would be able to take and who would be able to reconstruct me. All I wanted to do is feel “normal” again. I remember the first visit. You were highly recommended and I thought to myself, how a doctor with high recommendations could take on such a nightmare! I entered your office doors not only in severe pain, but with the mindset that you would not take me on as a patient. For that first time in a long time, I saw HOPE and it was in your eyes. At that time I realized that I was 25 and my life wasn’t over. Throughout 8 months of treatment plus additional surgery, you made me see the light at the light at the end of the tunnel. I went from wanting to end my life to wanting to live. There was no psychiatrist or lawyer that could have seen what I was going through. However, you made me feel so comfortable that I was able to open up to you more than anyone else. I felt like I was visiting long time friends every time I walked into your office. I am writing you this letter with tears in my eyes. Dr. Wigoda, there are no words to describe how grateful I am for you. You are not just and amazing surgeon, but an amazing person as well." J.N.
"I would first like to thank you for all that you have done. In October 2009, We met as strangers in the ER of broward general’s trauma unit where I was rushed in as a trauma patient from a hospital that couldn’t handle my case. I was adamant about receiving the best surgeon at the hospital and was told that you would be coming on call in a few hours. The entire staff at Broward General held you in such high regard, and now I know why. I arrived with a fractured cheek, a lacerated eyelid that had been torn from my face, a nose that was broken and mangled, and severe road rash covering my arms and face. I was ejected from my vehicle and dragged down I-595 approximately 30 yards. I was a complete mess. I am a commercial pilot and my eyes are everything. You not only repaired my face and lacerations, but restored all normal function as well. Despite my numerous questions and the early hour you were called in, you had a huge smile on your face and turned my personal tragedy, into a triumph of surgical proffesional ism. In the days and months that followed, I regained the face that I recognized from before the accident, and I am still soaring through the sky thanks to you. My scarring is minimal, despite what the first initial hospital had predicted. I am so blessed and grateful that you were my surgeon. In the years that have followed, you have taking care of many of the people I care the most about in my life. Whether it has been a breast augmentation , face lift, eye lid rejuvenation, or a nose job, you have surpassed everyone’s expectations and made a huge difference in their lives. Now, two years after meeting you, I have come to you again. This time for elective plastic surgery. I had a large mass in my chest (gynecomastia) and it was distorting my physique, very uncomfortable and awkward . After changing my diet, extensive excersie, and trying everything possible, I knew you could fix me up. I came in to see you, and like you had done two years ago in the Hospital, you greeted me with a big smile. You were full of options and understanding. You navigated around my demanding work schedule, and administered the best treatment available. I left my surgery with immediate satisfaction! I was in minimal pain, and up and about in record time. I am now looking forward to returning to the gym, beach and getting back to being myself again. You are more than a physician, I think of you as my friend. You are honest, kind, professional, and the example of what a physician should be. Thank you for always being there, and doing everything with so much class. You are the best in the business!" D.W.
"Dr. Loewenstein: I just want to sincerely thank you for my new nose. It looks fabulous, and I love it! It is also great to breathe out of both sides. I made the right choice by choosing you as my surgeon. You did an outstanding job, and I really appreciate it. I have enclosed an after picture so that you can see it 4 weeks later."
"Dr. Loewenstein, I wanted to thank you so much for all you did, the flowers (I still have them), and especially my surgery. I feel so much better about myself already. You’re an amazing doctor. I can’t say thank you enough!" M.
"Dear Dr. Loewenstein, When I got home after my follow-up appointment, there were beautiful flowers at my front door from you! Thank you so much! I am so thrilled with my new look and think that in addition to being a wonderful plastic surgeon, you are also an artist – you made me look so natural! Thank you!" L.D.
"Dear Dr. Loewenstein: Just a note of thanks for being such a wonderful doctor before, during and after my surgeries. You certainly made a very difficult time in my life easier with your knowledge and caring way. You have always gone over and above the call of duty as far as giving me time in your office and answering all of my many questions in detail. Please enjoy lunch on me as a small token of my appreciation. I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful & talented doctor. Just might have to use you down the road for a face lift (ha-ha)."
"Dear Dr. Loewenstein, Thanks a million for your outstanding care; I’m so pleased with the cosmetic outcome of my eyes and left cheek. May God truly reward you for the manner in which you practice your gifted surgical abilities. You are so wonderful! I hope you stay in practice for a long time and have a wonderful 2009." J.K.
"I'm happy to say a few words about Dr. Loewenstein. I found him to be patient, gentle and an excellent listener. I went to my pre-op consultation armed with a lot of information (much of which I gathered from your web site) and a long list of questions. He made me feel I could use as much of his time as I needed. He thoroughly answered all of my questions and had more information to add on top. He listened to what I wanted and together we looked at pre/post op photos for him to get more feedback from me. Sandy, his "main" nurse, set up the surgery and made herself available for any questions I might have had at any time. I called her several times pre-op and she was always kind, candid, practical, and proud of Dr. Loewenstein and his work. I felt I was in good hands at all times. The surgery went smoothly and I was extremely well cared for by Dr. Loewenstein and the nursing staff at St. Luke's Surgery Center. I had drains put in and Dr. Loewenstein met me in his office on a Saturday-on his own time-to remove them. (His office is not open on Saturdays). I got Dr. Loewenstein's name from a couple of places. The first to mention him was my OB/GYN. She said of all the breast augmentations she sees in her office, Loewenstein's name comes up the most and with good reason. The breasts she's seen by him "...are simply amazing. Very natural looking with practically no scarring." Secondly, I asked a doctor friend (emergency medicine) which plastic surgeon he would use if he needed one-and he said Dr. Loewenstein. Thirdly, I discovered that another doctor friend (general surgeon) chose Dr. Loewenstein to operate on his injured elbow (his operating arm). I was sold. My statistics are as follows: 5'6", 110, 28" rib cage, was 34AA, now small C, 275cc overfilled to 300 left/325 right, under, round,smooth, Mentors, armpit incision done endoscopically, 8 weeks post op. Dr. Loewenstein told my husband and I that breast augmentation is about 50% science and 50% art. It really is important to find a quality plastic surgeon. I couldn't be happier with my experience with Dr. Loewenstein and recommend him to anyone in the market. Update 8/29/99: Just like many people after their first ba, I wished I had asked Dr. Loewenstein to make me a little bigger and wider. He obviously wanted me to be happy with my results and discussed several options to achieve what I desired. After much thought, my husband and I decided to go with silicone implants. I had my redo 8/25/99 with 450cc silicone implants at Elmbrook Hospital. Dr. Loewenstein performed the procedure endoscopically again and was able to use my original trans-ax incision sites. I am thrilled with the results and can't say enough about Dr. Loewenstein and his staff. Sandy, who had to deal with all of the extra paper work associated with the silicone study, was particularly wonderful. I am proud to be a part of the study with Dr. Loewenstein." J.
"I had such a great experience with Dr. Loewenstein and would recommend him HIGHLY. He is kind-of quiet, but every time I saw him (pre & post-op) I went in with a list of questions and no matter how many patients he had waiting he made sure I never left without my questions answered! I had VERY little pain after my surgery and was up and about the next day. My new breasts looked fantastic at 1 week post-op, and they felt almost natural at 2 weeks. Dr. Loewenstein reviewed pictures that I had brought in on my pre-op visit with me and gave me his suggestions. I think he was right on the money with a "natural" size for my frame. Feel free to e-mail me if you would like to discuss Dr. Loewenstein further, but again I HIGHLY recommend him (and this comes from a patient that was TERRIFIED of having this surgery)." S.
"I choose Dr. Loewenstein because during my consultation he walked in the door and went through just about everything that can happen (complications) from a BA and then said - "Still want to talk about it?". I did not feel like he was trying to "sell" me anything - I felt like he genuinely wanted me to be informed about a very serious decision. I did go ahead with my BA and could not be happier! Dr. Loewenstein is a skilled surgeon and a very nice man!" S.Z.
"I had my BA 3 weeks ago with Dr. Loewenstein. I am very happy with the results. I had surgery at St. Joseph's hospital on Burleigh St. The first week after surgery was a little rough, but then I recovered quite a bit. If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer them if I can!! Good luck."
"You will be in GREAT hands! I had Dr. Loewenstein for my original BA and my re-do to silicone and also some Lipo. He is a FANTASTIC surgeon and really knows his stuff. My cousin also went to him for her BA and is VERY happy. He's a bit quiet (I'm sure you noticed), but he is VERY skilled and even participated in a video for Nicole here at ImplantInfo. Good luck with your BA (BTW I had NO pain after either BA -- lipo was a whole different story! Take care and keep us posted!" S.
"Nicole, I used Dr Loewenstein in Milwaukee, WI. I told him I found his info on your site. I am very impressed with his technical ability. I had my breast augmentation over 5 months ago and have had zero complications which I credit to luck and him. I don’t have any follow ups with him, and only met with him two times post op. I am glad I had the comfort of your website recommendation. Dr. Loewenstein is quiet but always answered my questions. I am happy with my results. If I ever have a need for a redo I may go a little smaller. I would definitely go back to Dr. Loewenstein." S.
"Nicole, I had my surgery on July 20, and I am so happy with the results. I really believe Dr. Loewenstein is an artist as well as a wonderful surgeon. He knew what would look best on my small frame (5’7”, 120 pounds and small in the rib cage) – I trusted his judgment and couldn’t be happier. I am older than most of the women who visit your site (50), and was concerned about someone my age having breast augmentation. Dr. Loewenstein made me feel perfectly comfortable about my decision, and understood that I was doing this for me, that I didn’t want to be ‘in your face big’. I’m now a full C, look very proportionate and my clothes fit so much better! I would recommend Dr. Loewenstein to anyone! Nicole, your website has been wonderful for me. I spent so much time on it just prior to my surgery and it helped ease the pre-BA jitters. Thank you!" L.
"On September 30th, I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Loewenstein. I was very concerned about not going too big. I am slender. 107 lbs. and 5'5" tall. Age 60. I was a 34 "A" and am now a nice full "B". I am so happy with my results. My measurements are now 35-25-35. It is exactly 15 days since my surgery and I am in no pain what-so-ever. Throughout all of my surgical procedures Dr. Loewenstein has allowed me repeated office visits to answer any questions and address any fears. Doctor Loewenstein is NOT Doc. Hollywood!! He is patient, kind, honest, and down to earth. If he seems quiet, I think it's because his gears are really turning while he is trying to figure the best way to approach each person's particular needs. He does not try to push other surgical procedures at you. Sandy, his nurse is very helpful. She handled all the paperwork with ease and a good nature. She also took phone calls from me with patience and a great sense of humor." M.
"Dr. Loewenstein saved my life... literally- I was so depressed. He was great! I felt like he genuinely cared about his patients. My surgery was a success and I am happy and content. I would recommend him to anyone!"
"From my first hand experience, I highly recommend Dr. Paul Loewenstein to anyone looking to have a breast augmentation procedure, or a rhinoplasty procedure. Dr. Loewenstein adhered closely to my needs, and in every interaction with himself and his staff, I have experienced utmost levels of professionalism and competence. Before my surgery, Dr. Loewenstein was thorough in explaining my options and in making sure to answer all my questions, ensuring I was informed and comfortable with my decisions. Patient Care Coordinator, Sandi Enea (part of Dr. Loewenstein’s team) was also very respectful, thorough, and helpful in my decision making and recovery processes. After surgery, Dr. Loewenstein monitored me closely, and I felt 100% comfortable in his care and 100% confident I had made the right decision in having him as my Surgeon for these procedures. Between the time I had started thinking about doing these procedures, and the time I actually moved forward, there was about an 8 year gap. I didn’t want to have my procedures performed by just anyone, and I wanted to make sure I was making the right decision, both in the specifics of my surgery, and in the doctor I was choosing. I would have found it highly beneficial if someone would have pointed me in the direction of Dr. Paul Loewenstein when I started looking at different surgeons in the Milwaukee Metro and surrounding areas. After my initial consultation, and after talking with Dr. Loewenstein and Sandi Enea, I knew I could let go of my hesitations, and that choosing Dr. Loewenstein as my surgery provider was without a doubt the right choice for me. My surgery results are amazing. I went from a small B cup to a C cup, and I couldn’t be happier with the results of my breast augmentation. Also, the results of my rhinoplasty procedure exceeded my expectations. I healed extremely quickly from these surgeries, and my care throughout this time was impeccable. Again, I would recommend anyone thinking about facial or breast procedures to talk to Dr. Loewenstein before making a decision. He is an outstanding Surgeon, and he provides outstanding surgery results." J.S.
"I am writing to recommend Dr. Paul Silverstein who is a sponsor of this web-site. He is very professional, and yet caring. His staff is extremely helpful and they take the time to explain things to patients and answer their questions. They are committed to helping you look and feel your very best. Dr. Silverstein is extremely qualified (look at his credentials) and makes a moral commitment to his patients to see them through the entire process of a BA or any plastic surgery that he performs. He also tries to make sure that they are happy during each step of the process. He sees many patients from out of town and out of state. His reputation definitely precedes him, as he even has a major hospital burn center named after him. The surgical suite where he performed my BA was just like a hospital and they made sure that I was comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Silverstein. Thank you so much for all of your hard work!" S.P.
"I recently had my second surgery with Dr. Silverstein. I had my original BA in 1991 and was very satisfied with everything from consultation, surgery, *results*, and the following years of post-op care. I am one of the rare patients who developed bilateral capsular contracture. Although we can only speculate on the causes of this, one of the reasons for my CC may have been due to a breastfeeding infection I developed while breastfeeding my last child. I also had wisdom teeth removed around the same time (no antibiotics), and although it is all theory, this is my experience. Most women who choose to breastfeed with implants never experience this problem. I would choose to do it all over again because the benefits derived from nursing my children far outweigh any negatives. Dr. Silverstein performed a capsulectomy and replaced my implants after almost 9 years. Not only is he a wonderful surgeon, but he is also an artist. He has a wonderful staff who thoroughly prepared me for this 2nd surgery which was more involved than the original. I am now 8 weeks post-op and feeling great. During the years since my BA in 1991 there have been many stories in the media regarding the safety of silicone breast implants. Quite naturally when we choose this surgery we have concerns of our own anyway. I have always felt free to call Dr. Silverstein's office with my questions because his staff has always taken my concerns seriously. I cannot say enough about these people--they are wonderful." D.R.
“Thank you for making my liposuction operation so easy and worry-free. It has been almost 6 months when you should see the full effect of the operation. Well! Let me tell you, I look Fantastic, feel better physically and mentally too. I have lost 13 pounds already. The operation gave me the incentive not to eat so much. Even my ObGyn was impressed! This is one of the best things that I have ever done for myself.” L.C.
"Dr. LoVerme, MaryLynn, Karne and all the office staff, I want to thank all of you for the excellent care I received before, during, and after my hand operation. I ahve full use of my right hand now and its great to be able to move my fingers. Dr. LoVerme, you're the best!" A.S.
"My sincerest "thanks" cannot fully express how truly grateful I am to you. Your skillful hands and your kind nature helped me achieve a pain free daily existence. In addition, you have increased my self confidence and improved my general outlook with respect to my self image. My back and neck do not hurt, I can wear normal bras and tops, I can exercise freely and most of all I am happy when I look in the mirror. For all of this I am grateful to you and your staff and I say thank you. Many people questioned my desire for breast reduction surgery but despite my apprehension about surgery in general, I felt confident after meeting you and your staff. I would make this decision again in a minute with only you as my surgeon. The impact that this surgery has had on my life is remarkable. I would encourage anyone to pursue plastic surgery with you and your staff. To you and your staff I offer a heart-felt and sincere thank you!" R.M.
"Thank you for making my experience here at your office a pleasant one. I was very reluctant to seek assistance from another surgeon after being only moderately pleased with my last two operations. For personal reasons, I was even more reluctant to see a male professional. I'm glad now that I made the choice to see you for consultation and the go through with the surgery. You have a most pleasant and supportive staff. I know if I ever need any other services that your office provides, I will definitely return! Thank you for the spectacular job that you did on my "tummy tuck" as well as proportioning my body accordingly. I will never be able to explain the difference of my self esteem and I owe it all to you and your staff. Just thank you for an uplifting experience! I Absolutely could not be happier with what you did for me. The results are so natural and so perfect- it's great to look at myself and smile." B.D.
"I want you to know that my daughter is very pleased with the outcome of her surgery and now looks at girls who are overly endowed and has said to me that she is so happy that she had it done. She loves her new shape and wears her clothes well now." M.M.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, Mary Lynn, and your staff for the extraordinary care provided to me during my recent surgery and recovery period. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and I credit you with substantially changing my life for the better." K.T.
"And I couldn't be more pleased with how the surgery turned out. It looks great and exceeded my own expectations. It's obvious you are extremely talented and have a gift for what you do." S.C.
"I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your excellent care. The breast reduction was a complete success. I have had other doctors comment on what a good job you did and I would agree. If you would like photos of your work next time I'm in NJ, I would be happy to allow you have them. Really, I am amazed." R.C.
"Well it is a year since I had my reconstruction and moved to Florida. I finally found a doctor for my general check-ups. She told that my breast reconstruction is one the best she has ever seen." E.G.
"Many thanks not only for your wisdom and superior skills but also for the courteous manner and sincere concern. It is certainly uplifting (no pun intended) to know doctors and assistants of your caliber are available and I'm grateful I had the good fortune to have been in your care!" L.C.

"I just felt I had to write to you and give you my personal "thanks" for the care and attention you gave me. My nose healed up beautifully. You did a wonderful job. I'll make sure to keep my hat on and lotion when I leave for Aruba this Saturday. Once again, Many Thanks." R.S.

"Just wanted to thank you for an 'uplifting experience' !! I absolutely could not be happier with what you did for me - the results are so natural and so PERFECT - it's great to look at myself and smile instead of cringe! You MaryLynn and Karen made this a really pleasant experience - I was so impressed with your information packet, your patience with all my questions and the post-op care (loved those flowers!) - If you'd like to use my before and after pictures on your website, it would be my pleasure to be an example of perfectly executed mastopexy!!" B.D.
"This is for the "magic" you performed - making it possible for me to comfortably stand up straight and actually look (somewhat) forward to wearing a swimsuit. Thank you very much for your skill and kindness." D.B.
"Thank you very much for making one of the most painful ordeals into a pleasant experience. It was a difficult decision but I don't regret it at all, looking at the outcome. Now that I can look into the mirror without wincing, I can see the difference and I'm grateful to you. I also want to thank you for the flowers which were an unexpected surprise. You have a wonderful staff and I want to thank each one of them individually. Especially MaryLyn for being there when I needed you and lending me your ear." M.M.

"I just want to say how amazing it is to see the ear that I've lived with for 42 years, that was always sticking out, now looking like a normal ear. Anyhow, wanted to send a note to say thanks so far. I know we still have some ways to go with the healing process. But, please pass along a thanks to Dr. Flint when you get a chance. Made me feel pretty good tonight. Like I had taken a positive action on something I had "thought" about for so long. It's nice to know there are people that do what you guys do for a living. Trying to make people feel better about themselves." K.
"Dear Dr. Flint and Staff: I want to express my sincere “thank you” to all of you for the wonderful experience I have had over the past two years. My “refreshed” facelift is so natural, and all that saggy skin on my face and neck are gone. I look and feel wonderful. My eyes seem to be the biggest change that people notice, and I can now wear eye shadow and actually see it. I feel rejuvenated and refreshed. Your team and skills are the reason. After such a successful experience I decided to do the tummy tuck, breast reduction and a little lip seven months later. WOW!!! What a difference that has made in my look. No more extra skin from my extreme weight loss over the last two years. I would say you are a miracle worker and I am so pleased with the results. Larry, my husband, is even more pleased. This was the best thing I have done for myself in 25 years. I think the best way to say thank you is to say that I would do it again. After the successful “refresh” I knew I had selected the right doctor and the right team to make me “new” again. Thank you. I wish you continued success making all the ladies in Arizona beautiful." N.
"I used Dr. Flint for my face and breast surgery. I was new to the Valley. I did quite a bit of research on the net. I spoke with other Doctors. I went on a number of interviews. I always asked for a call back from a former patient. Dr. Flint 's patients were the best reference. I also checked the Phoenix Mag. for the "Top Doc's". The office visit before the surgery was concise and to the point. I received all the information. It was all explained by the staff. The Staff is WONDERFUL. After the procedure, I would call the office, and in record time my questions were all answered. I would email Dr. Flint, and in minutes, I had a reply! I could ALWAYS reach Dr. Flint or her staff."
"Dear Doctor Flint, It has been a year now since I have had plastic surgery that you performed. I would like you to know that I am very pleased with my plastic surgery experience. I feel more confident and more at peace with myself than I ever have. I had a breast augmentation, lift, tummy tuck and liposuction. I decided to have you as my surgeon after talking to my medical doctors that I have been seeing for years. I had discussed with them that I was going to use you. Every doctor and every one I knew in the medical field told me that you were an excellent choice. You were very well known and had an excellent reputation. I also have a friend you performed a breast reduction for. Your office staff was very helpful and caring. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable with any and all questions I had before, during and after surgery. I felt I was in the best of care at the Greenbaum Hospital. I felt very relaxed with the anesthesiologist as he listened to my concerns regarding some medications I am allergic to and made me feel at ease with the surgery. I felt very comfortable knowing that you hand picked these doctors as they play a very important role in the surgery. Once again because of your reputation I felt I made the best decision. If I ever decide to have plastic surgery in the future I will definitely contact you. Yours truly," M.
"My decision to even have plastic surgery was not an easy one for me. I tend to be a perfectionist, and I was concerned that I could actually look worse rather than better. I had seen pictures of a number of famous people with whom I would not trade places. I had visited Dr. Flint previously for collagen injections, and though she was naturally my first choice for surgery (should I decide to have it), I was not convinced until I spoke confidentially with her nurse at that time, Denise. Her own husband is an orthopedic surgeon, and he spoke very highly of Dr. Flint in the operating room and of her reputation. I also asked friends about other doctors, their methods and workmanship. I determined that I definitely wanted a surgeon who would keep me in a hospital overnight. In all of my research, I never heard one negative comment regarding Dr. Flint’s surgical expertise. Dr. Flint’s honesty and straight forward approach was refreshing. She told me what to expect, how to prepare for surgery and how to take care of myself after the procedure. We also discussed 'our' goals. I wanted to look rested and refreshed, not startled or surprised. She favored a natural look and I liked that. Six months following my surgery during my yearly physical, my internist at Mayo Clinic examined my scars, complimented me on my results and said I should be very happy. He was impressed; he wanted to know who had done my work. A year after my procedure, my OB/GYN, of whom I had been a patient for twenty-one years, was surprised when I told him of my decision. He said that he thought I had just been on an extended vacation. He too examined my scars, looked closely at the surgical sites and was very impressed. He too said I should be really happy. I am. I honestly can’t speak positively enough about the office staff. They make a terrific team, and as a patient, I benefited directly from their patience, their helpful attitude and most especially their friendliness. I so appreciate the ambiance in the office; I can always count on it. I consider all of them friends now – a totally unexpected bonus for a plastic surgery procedure!"
"I had been considering a breast augmentation for many years. As much as I desired the surgery, I had several reservations. I did not want to look operated on, and wanted an appearance that was proportionate to my small frame and lifestyle. After debating the pros and cons, I decided to research qualified plastic surgeons. I asked my other doctors for referrals, looked through local periodicals, asked friends if they knew anyone with positive surgical experiences, and read numerous physicians' websites. I selected my favorites and went in for consultations with all of them. I asked very specific questions that were important to me. I wanted to make sure the physician was board certified in plastic surgery, and not someone who performs cosmetic surgery but is not certified to do so. I thought it was vital to have an experienced plastic surgeon that had been in practice for over ten years. It was also important for me to learn how many cases of my specific surgery the doctor performed annually, and over the course of their career, so I could be comfortable with making such a major decision. I did not want to take any risks. When I met Dr. Flint I knew that I was in the right qualified hands. She impressed me with her honesty and sincerity. We discussed how my case was unique and what I should expect as a result. I truly felt she listened to my concerns and understood them more than any other plastic surgeon I met with. She promised to make herself available for any further questions I would have, and she delivered on that promise. It has now been over a year since I had my surgery. Every day when I would get dressed, I used to be uncomfortable with my body. Now the body part that I liked the least has become one of my favorites. Those negative thoughts no longer cross my mind. It has changed my life in such a positive way. My only wish is that I would have made this decision years ago. I would highly recommend Dr. Flint and her superb staff to anyone interested in plastic surgery."
"Dear Dr. Beckham, This gift to you symbolizes the new life that you have given me through your life's dedication and work. It is my sincere hope that every time you look at this gift you will be reminded of all the people you have given new life to over the years or your career." C.
Dear Dr. Beckham, Thanks again for the fabulous job you did on my face lift. My friends are all commenting on how much younger I look. And when I look in the mirror, my appearance looks so natural, not tight and strained like other face lifts I have seen. I so appreciate your expertise and careful attention to detail. A.T.
"Dr. Beckham, I can't thank you enough. After my tummy tuck, I feel like a new person. Your office staff was very helpful as were the staff at the surgery center. I recommend you to all my friends." M.
"Dear Dr. Beckham, It was a pleasure working with you Dr. Beckham. You explained the surgery in detail with all the pros and cons. I was very pleased with the results of the surgery and had minimal recovery time. There are other procedures I would like to have done and I look forward to working with you again." M.B.
"Dear Dr. Beckham, I wanted to thank you so much for your care! What a wonderful gift you have to help make people feel better about themselves.

"Dr. Beckham, I just wanted to write you a note to say hello and let you know I was thinking about you! It has been a while since I have come in, so I wanted to wish you a good summer and let you know I was doing GREAT! I am so happy with my results, feel great, and wanted to thank you again! See you in September." C.R.
"I wore glasses and contacts since I was in fifth grade. Life without glasses is so wonderful. I can swim, exercise, take naps, and best of all sleep an extra 10 minutes because I don't have to deal with contacts." R.L.
"Really amazing to be able to see without glasses after 30 years with them. Makes snowmobiling and other sports so much easier. Would recommend it to everyone. Thank you to everyone at Dr. Costello's." C.W.
"After having LASIK performed on my eyes I can now read print that I was unable to see even with my glasses on. I wish it was available years ago." R.S.
"Before my LASIK eye surgery with Dr. John Costello Jr. I was wearing glasses and contacts for over 25 years. Now I have 20/20 vision without anything. I can see my alarm clock; that may not sound like a big deal, but it is amazing. The procedure was painless and well explained and even easier than it sounded, and it only took seconds to change my life forever! The staff was very helpful and pleasant through the whole procedure. Thanks again for everything." W.L.
"LASIK eye surgery was the best thing I have ever done for myself. It is wonderful to be able to see the clock when I first wake up in the morning. My vision has never been clearer. I would suggest LASIK to anyone and everyone." P.P.
"I love waking up in the morning and being able to see! Life without glasses has been liberating beyond belief. It amazes me daily. I'm smiling and loving my eyes! Thank you Dr. Costello and staff." D.H.
"When I woke up the day after my surgery I looked out my window to a whole different world. I only wish I had done LASIK a lot sooner. A special thank you to Dr. Costello and his wonderful staff for guiding me through." S.V.
"I am very happy with my results. After wearing glasses for 30 years, I now have 20/20 vision. I would recommend Dr. Costello and his group to anyone considering LASIK." E.D.
"I have been waiting 10 years to get this performed, and I finally DID IT. I just wish now I did it before. It was painless and a very short procedure." A.V.
"Dr. Costello, Jr., and his staff were great. It is amazing that I don't need contacts or glasses anymore. I wish I had the LASIK procedure done years ago." W.K.
"Thank you Dr. John! I was amazed waking up the morning after the LASIK and being able to see the birds in trees outside. I am able to see driving at night better than ever before. Your staff is very professional also!" F.H.
"Wish I had LASIK done years ago." D.T.
"Dr. Costello and staff are all wonderful people. Having LASIK has changed my life! I love waking up without having to reach for my glasses or putting my contacts in. It's great!" G.S.
"I can see! After a life with glasses and contacts, I have a new sense of freedom and can see the world through new eyes. Many thanks to Dr. Costello and the entire staff for all their help." M.B.
"I'm wondering why I waited to have the LASIK surgery completed. Dr. Costello and his staff were all wonderful." D.O.
"Eye sight the way God intended. The doctor and staff were perfect!" T.L.
"Dr. Ganchi’s credentials were the determining factor in why I chose him. He was also the only physician who could perform my type of surgery. The brochures and letters were very informative and creative. Instructions were explained and reviewed in-depth. This was very helpful. The care before and after my procedure exceeded my expectations, and I am very pleased with my results! Dr. Ganchi is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He made me feel very comfortable and at ease about my procedure. I would definitely recommend him to anyone considering surgery. He is also very kind and has a pleasant demeanor. Dr. Ganchi is also one of the most competent, qualified physicians I have ever had the pleasure of meeting." C.N.

"I selected Dr. Ganchi for his amazing credentials, his approach, bedside manner, understanding exactly what I wanted, everything together from the office staff and their friendliness and smiles to the wonderful atmosphere in the office to the cleanliness of the examination rooms. Dr. Ganchi exceeded my expectations, and I would not consider any other cosmetic surgeon other than Dr. Ganchi for future surgeries. I could not think of a single thing that could have been done differently by the staff to improve my experience. My needs were absolutely met, and my surgical results are great! My surgeon was great! I recommend Dr. Ganchi to everyone. You are the greatest! Thank you." M.Z.

"Once my husband and I were satisfied with Dr. Ganchi’s training, experience, and affiliations, the tone of the office (professional but not “stiff”) and his manner in particular (patient, caring, not rushed) our decision was easy. Also, other doctors do not do the fat injections in the face. All of our questions were answered with no feeling of being rushed or the doctor being too “busy.” His credentials were absolutely important and his communication after the consultation was excellent with nice personal touches. Dr. Ganchi impressed me as a skilled surgeon with an aesthetic eye, who would truly strive to achieve the best results possible. That this was a value of his was extremely important to me. I truly felt that he would achieve “Park Avenue” results and then some, and I was right! My results are excellent! I have already sent friends to Dr. Ganchi." J.S.

He is a great cosmetic surgeon who inspires confidence." A.V.
"Dr. Ganchi was highly recommended by the surgical nursing staff at Hackensack Hospital. I really like Dr. Ganchi’s bedside manner. He always makes me feel comfortable and important. He always takes the time to sit with me. I never feel rushed in any way. The doctor and staff make me feel as though I am the only patient. When I call the office with questions, everyone is courteous and helpful. I remember I was worried about my procedure, so Dr. Ganchi met me at the office and it was the 4th of July! My results are great! I feel much better about myself. I am already planning my next procedure. I have even inquired about my daughter who wants to have plastic surgery. I recommend Dr. Ganchi all the time." C.W.
"I just wanted to take a moment to write to you to express my thanks for the extra efforts you gave to help me. I am very appreciative to you and Dr. Ganchi. Your staff is wonderful, too!

"Thank you so much for everything. I’m so excited with the “New” me! I appreciate all you have done.” K.B.
I had Liposonix on my stomach and love handles about 4 months ago and love my results. I lost almost 2 inches! It hurt a little bit when I had the treatment done, but it was worth it. Everyone was so nice and made me feel very comfortable. L.C.
"I needed a little something done to help me feel better about my overall body image. I was very nervous going into the surgery but if I had only known years ago what a difference it would have made in my life I would have had this done then. Not only do I feel better but no one can even tell that I have had surgery in that area. The scars are not visable! I love my new body and I love the time and expertise of Dr. Allen. I would recommend him to anyone who is serious about choosing a professional and highly skilled surgeon..." M.
"Dr. Allen is an artist and I was his canvas. I put my trust into his hands and he turned me into a beautiful woman. He is very professional and I felt so comfortable at my consultations. He is very informative and I appreciated all the time he spent with me. I feel so much more confident about the way I look. I have gotten lots of compliments on what a beautiful job he has done. Dr. Allen is a perfectionist, and I will be forever grateful that I have found such an excellent plastic surgeon." K.
"Tom and I are very active people. We’re both certified Scuba Divers, we hike and roller-blade, and ride our bicycles 40 miles each week. But, no matter how hard I exercised, I could never build the muscles in my calves and this really bothered me. Finally, I decided to do something about it – surgically. I called around and met several doctors who performed calf implant surgery. After much deliberation, I decided to go with Dr. Bunkis because I liked him the best. As it turned out, that was the best decision I could have ever made and it became the beginning of a friendship that has lasted almost ten years. I say friendship because I truly do consider Dr. Bunkis to be my friend. My calf implant surgery was so successful that nobody would ever guess that they weren’t real muscles – even the masseuse at the gym! But it was when my breast implants ruptured (old ones that were implanted by another surgeon many years prior) that Dr. Bunkis displayed both the skill and artistry that define his reputation. The silicone had ruptured and migrated and Dr. Bunkis literally had to remove it, piece-by piece, without damaging any of the natural breast tissue. He replaced the ruptured implants with newer ones that have stayed soft and wonderful ever since. Over the years, I have visited the office on several occasions, more recently for a facelift and eye tuck. My husband even had his eyelids done. We both feel that we look young for our age, which is great because we feel young for our age! Now the outside radiates what we both feel inside. I went for a job interview recently and was hired for a position that would generally be given to a much younger person. That was the best compliment I could have ever been given. Dr. Bunkis is really an artist. I have always been comfortable about having surgery. I’ve never worried about the outcome because I have always known that he would do his best, because he is the best." L.R.
"When I first visited Dr. Bunkis twenty years ago, it was with the intent of having a breast augmentation, but I chickened out at the last minute. Don’t ask me why. I don’t know. I just did. Instead I told Dr. Bunkis it was my lips that concerned me, that I wanted them bigger. It was true actually. I really didn’t have much of a top lip. So Dr. Bunkis put collagen into my lips and I left that day with the most voluptuous smile! I also left with a smile in my heart. Dr. Bunkis could see how nervous I was about meeting with a plastic surgeon but he did his best to make me feel comfortable. His approach felt so honest that it was only a matter of weeks before I plucked up the courage to go back for another consultation. This time for my dream surgery – breast augmentation. My breast surgery turned out to be perfect. As well as the caring staff and high level of integrity that Dr. Bunkis held within the community, it was the personal and human approach I was given during my decision making process that made my surgical experience a pleasant one. I met with several patients who shared their personal stories with me. Meeting them reassured me that I was making the right decision for myself. Since then, I have also had liposuction and my upper eyelids done. I’m no longer afraid of cosmetic surgery. In fact, since I first met Dr. Bunkis, I have referred over 150 people from my salon in Northern California to his office for consultation. He is such an excellent surgeon and an honest man. In my book, I couldn’t ask for anything more." D.R.
"I’m originally from Germany and it appears that in my family we all share the same family trait — bags under the eyes. I had them, so did my brother who lives in Berlin, and they made us look sad. Having cosmetic surgery to remove the bags became an easy decision for me. I trusted and liked Dr. Bunkis from the minute I met him. I knew he would do a great job and he did. In fact, it was so good that when my brother saw my pictures, he flew from Germany just to have surgery on his eyes as well. Now we both look happy – like we feel! Over the past ten years, Dr. Bunkis has performed several other procedures for me. Everything he has done has provided me with a spiritual lift, as well as a surgical lift. I have had my breasts reduced and my tummy tucked, as well as facial cosmetic surgery including a facelift and forehead lift. Ten days after my facelift, I attended a wedding. I had no bruising, minimal swelling, and everybody thought I looked at least ten years younger. Some people even said I looked younger than the bride! But to me, having cosmetic surgery isn’t really about looking younger – it’s about looking the best that you can for your given age! Now it’s my daughter’s turn to have surgery. After providing me with two grandchildren, her tummy isn’t quite what it was so I have recommended that Dr. Bunkis help her out with surgery as well. I can’t think of anybody else that I would trust to operate on my daughter! She is the most special thing in my life, but I know Dr. Bunkis will use his unique skills to ensure that she has the safest and most successful surgical outcome." D.E.
"I never got a chance to thank you for the help I recieved from you back in January of 1985. Gratitude for your work on my hand has been with me throughout the past years. During that night on January 20, 1985, fear raced through me at the thought of never again doing what I loved: playing football. I believe, through the grace of God, you and many others were put into my life to help me along. Since that time, I was able to go to college and graduate in secondary education. I played footbal for five years at BYU without any limitations in my left hand. I signed with the New York Giants and was released in 1990. Today I am a teacher and football coach in Salt Lake City. I just wanted to say thank you and let you know I appreciate what you did for me. Thank God I don’t play the guitar, because I still have very limited dexterity. Other than that, my hand is in no way limiting. Thanks again." M.B.

"The surgery you performed on my son’s face gave him back 99% of his good looks, facial features, and most importantly his dignity and self confidence. For that, we will be forever grateful to you and your wonderful talent in the plastic surgery discipline. Today, my son seems to have healed physically and mentally from the accident. I think of you often and the amazing gift that you have. Thanks for sharing it with us! You’re an amazingly talented doctor." J.M.

Dr. Schierle is very nice however I was very unhappy with the final result of the liposection treatment. I would not recommend him for this treatment.
Dr. Schierle performed a breast reduction surgery on me in late October. It has been 5 weeks and I am beyond thrilled. He is professional, caring and very knowledgeable. He will answer any questions you may have and in a way you will understand. I highly recommend him.
My doctor recommended Northwestern Plastic Surgery to remove a large cyst from my face. Dr, Schierle did an excellent job. He took the time necessary to be an uninvasive as possible. The result is no scar, practically invisible. Thanks Dr. Schierle.
I had a great experience under the care of Dr. Schierle. He performed a breast reduction on me approximately 4 weeks ago. I experienced little pain and have hardly any marks. He is a caring, considerate and very knowledgeable physician and an expert in the field of cosmetic surgery. I highly recommended using him as a physician.
I saw Dr. Schierle for my breast augmentation earlier this year. I had always felt self conscious about my breasts. The 3D imaging was amazing and really helped me decide what size to go with. The results are totally natural and I am so happy!!! If you are looking for breast augmentation or breast implants in Chicago, check out Dr. Schierle. He is awesome!!!
Dr. Schierle is amazing! I had breast implants put in fifteen years ago by another surgeon and over the years have had three additional surgeries to fix problems with them. They were too big, in the wrong place (too low and out to the side) and a weird shape. Dr. Schierle used their awesome 3D camera to show me the areas that were problems and how we could fix them. I put my trust in him and was not disappointed. My breasts are amazing now! They are round, perfect, natural looking and feel great! My only regret is that I didn't find Dr. Schierle sooner! If you are even considering having anything done (breast, tummy tuck, nose job, whatever) he will talk to you and explain all your options without any pressure. I am so happy. He literally changed my life!
"Dr. Howard and Awesome Staff! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You all are such amazing, gifted, loving people! I feel like a brand new person! Love to you all!" W.
"A great experience so far. Dr. Howard's kind and low key demeanor inspires calm and confidence about the procedure and post-op expectations. Kerri and the rest of the staff are extremely responsive and personable. I really appreciated the low key atmosphere of the entire office - very down-to-earth and professional. So far, very happy with my results! Thank you!"
"I am writing to tell you how very, very happy I am with the results of my surgery. From the first time I met you, I felt very comfortable and confident that you were the best surgeon I would find and that you would do a beautiful job and I was right! I am healing quickly and the results have been amazing to me. I feel as though I look very natural and that both procedures have turned out beautifully. I truly could not be happier. I loved working with you and feel honored to have had such a talented and highly skilled surgeon taking care of me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
"Thank you for always making me feel so comfortable and at ease when I visit the office. Kerri, thank you for all of the wonderful notes you have sent, you are great at your job! Dr. Howard, there aren't enough "thank you's" in the world to express my gratitude for making me a better me!"
"Thank you for the excellent reconstruction of the Moh's surgery on my face. The scar is becoming less visible everyday. You are a kind, gentle and exceptional surgeon who cares for his patients. I have recommended you to many of my friends and plan to see you again in the future."
"I wanted to thank you for all of your help and for helping me in every way you could! I have had such a pleasant experience with you and Dr. Howard and your office! Please give my mom a call; I want her to have the same experience I have had! Again, I greatly appreciate everything!"
"It was a pleasure to meet you and the rest of the staff. I am thrilled that I decided to contact Dr. Howard's practice and speak with you. You are so warm, inviting and professional. I appreciate you taking time out of your day to answer my questions and make me feel at ease. Dr. Howard is a gem!"
"Thank you all so much for the excellent medical care, as well as the warm and friendly environment you offer. From staying on the phone with me to get me here after I took a wrong turn, to giving me a workspace to call and make financial arrangements for my surgery. Everyone has shown such kindness that far exceeds that of any other medical office of which I was a patient. I will certainly refer people here for their cosmetic procedures." M.A.
"Just wanted to let you all know how impressed I was with my care at your office. Dr Howard is amazing and has a great personality to go along with his impeccable skills. I would recommend him to anyone. If you want great results but always safety first hes your man. Kerri was wonderful from the first time I talked to her on the phone. She answered all my questions with patience and enthusiasm. She was with me through all my care to the end. She was born to do this job! Krystyna was someone I would have as my surgical nurse on any occasion. She made the few hours I was there entertaining and never boring. She has a great sense of humor but also knows her stuff! This is great when youre having something like this done. Michelle and the front desk girl were both always very sweet and professional. Overall great experience!" L.
"I am loving my smart lipo and lack of muffin top." J.S.
"Just saying hello from the beach and feeling great! I am happy thus far and want to thank you again for your advice and kindness along the way of my procedure."
"I first reseached and searched for a board certified plastic surgeon for laser-lip in 2008. After consults with him and other doctors, I knew Dr. Howard was the best choice. When it comes to plastic surgery you want a surgeon who puts your safety first and is the best at what they do. His credentials and his sense of what looks great, while still looking natural, matched my expectations. Long story short, the laser lipo experience was fantastic. Minimal down time, and those areas I had been killing myself at the gym were gone. After considering breast augmentation for several years, I already knew I would trust Dr. Howard with that as well. We were on the same page about size and shape of the implants, again - I'm thrilled with the results. The surgery was explained in detail to me and I knew exactly what to expect. It's been 4 months since my breast aug and I'm so happy with my choice of size, shape, and most importantly - Doctor. When my friends saw his work - they made appointments - his work speaks for itself. Amazing!" - Edwina E.
"Dr. Howard and staff were so patient and sweet. I was worried that the size that I had chosen was going to be slightly larger tahn what I watned but they held my hand the entire way and encouraged me to keep the size I wanted, I am so happy I did! Thank you Guys! - Hali" H.
"Thanks for everything you have done for me. You have always gone above and beyond your call of duty with me and I truly appreciate it!" R.
"I can tell you first hand Dr. Arkoulakis is the most remarkable, talented, caring, reassuring and impressive surgeon I know. You meet him for the first time and you just know you're in good hands. I was given the worst news of my life that I had breast cancer and needed a mastectomy. You feel helpless and numb - but here I am 11 years later and I'm back reconstructed and doing the things I love most...boating and walking on the beach and no one knows I ever had a problem. I owe it all to Dr. Arkoulakis. He is a remarkable surgeon. He walks you through everything and there are no surprises or what-ifs. You know everything! I highly recommend him."
"My experience with Dr. Arkoulakis has been one that not only met but exceeded my expectation. His complete professionalism was reassuring from the time of my initial consultation through my surgery and follow up. His willingness to answer all my questions several times over gave me the confidence to trust him completely."
"Do you remember when I first came into your office? I had already gone to see a few surgeons before you and bombarded you with so many questions. You were, of course, very cool under my pressing inquisitiveness. Your expertise became clearly evident as your kindness, patience and sensitivity. You are gifted and have a wonderful talent. I'm very pleased with what you did in forming the new me -- that definitely took talent! Its only been a week since my TT & MR and the difference is breath taking! I'm continuing to see myself improve. This surgery was much easier than i thought and my friends can see a big difference in me. I have become the person that I was many years ago. I want to thank you for all your kindness and expertise, thoughtfulness, patience and most of all for being the wonderful person that you are. From the very first moment you made me feel complete at ease. You were understanding, compassionate, polite and unobtrusive. I felt totally safe in your care as well as the care of the clinic. They went far beyond my expectations. I thank you for regarding me as a person and not just a faceless "chart". By listening to me, respecting my wishes and performing top quality surgery. You have made a big difference in my life and I'm glad I had you as my surgeon. Now, you are a special person in my life and your name will be spoken with kindness to all my friends who want surgery done -- your name is at the top of the list. Thank you very much. Its hard to find the words to tell you the difference that you have made in my life." J.
"Dr. Kapositas, I am very pleased with my breast augmentation and blepharoplasty. I love my eyes. I'm so glad I went to you for my surgeries and I will return for any other work." A.
"Just a quick note to let you know that I am doing very well, no complications or problems. I have very little discomfort and the incision sites are healing nicely. I will make a appointment with my general practitioner later this month for a full check up, but I am already going back to work tomorrow. I just wanted to say thank you for doing such a wonderful job and I look forward to seeing you next year." R.
"I feel very good getting such a great result and I was looked after very well by all of the staff. I feel like I am back in control of my life and now I am confident to go back and work as a model." M.
"The website was very informative and I received a call back soon after I requested it, which was excellent. The consultation was very informative and friendly. Dr. Kapositas made me feel at ease and after he made complications clear to me. At the hospital everyone was helpful. Overall, the hospital stay was satisfactory. I knew a lot about the surgery before my arrival, so I found the friendly and helpful atmosphere helped me feel at ease. I rate my experience an 8 out of 10 -- overall, good enough to come back if i need any other surgery performed." T.
"I could not be happier with the results achieved as well as the overall service and experience in Athens. Every care was taken to make sure I understood the benefits of having a breast lift as well as the risks and potential complications. I felt that Dr. Kapositas met my expectations and I was very impressed with the personal attention which was better than England. The hospital was very nice and I rate my experience 10/10." G.
"I want to thank Dr. Kapositas for taking the time to listen to my needs. He is very professional. A doctor you can truly trust and expect amazing results from. A doctor who truly cares. I would use again if I needed anything done again. My results are amazing! YOU'RE THE BEST! Thank you, Dr. Kapositas..." L.
"After arriving safely back in the UK, I would just like to say thank you very much for the surgery you did on me! The pain is easing every day and I am all ready thinking about having other procedures! I was very happy with my stay in Athens and all of your staff were very nice and professional. I was impressed with the hospital, cleanliness of the clinic and my general treatment. I would not hesitate to return to Athens if I decided to have more done! I have recommended you to my friends and all ready one friend of David's is seriously considering it at the moment. We gave her your website address. I thought I would email you quickly to let you know I have healed very well from the surgery you performed on me back in June. Cosmetic surgery has actually changed my life and I have even recently been selected for a modeling job." A.
"I was very impressed by Dr. Kapositas as the consultation was excellent, explained everything very well and put me at ease about my operations going into detail exactly what procedures would take place. Dr. Kapositas exceed my expectations and I was absolutely delighted with the results of the augmentation and face lift. I would totally recommend him for his expertise and of his high standards for aftercare. I am certain I will be back for more procedures." C.
"I was worried that a Face Lift would took unnatural, but I am delighted with the results and I would recommend the procedure to anyone else who has doubts. The surgical care was also excellent -- I believe much better than I would have received in the U.K. The breast reduction/lift was carried out to a similarly high standard and I am delighted with the results, but most of all, I appreciated the caring nature of Dr. Kapositas and his staff. If there is anyone else who is considering similar procedures I’d be happy to talk with them." A
"Thank you very much for helping me during such a terrible time! You've got to be the most warm, kind and concerned physician in practice today." D.L.
"I just wanted to thank you for all the wonderful care you have given me. You are an exceptional man and a fabulous doctor. Thanks again." T.
"Dearest Dr. Nikolov, "I want you to know how very pleased and happy I am with the multiple surgeries you performed on me this year. I must tell you; I love the look of my eyes, the upper eyelid surgery brought out the openness of my eyes. It is so much more fun to put on make up these days. It looks great, what a difference. By your hands and expertise, beauty is created. For this, I wanted to express my most sincere gratitude for the caring manner in which you took care of my needs. I hope you like the watch, a symbol of time which you so creatively reverse." J.D.
"Thank you so much for the extra special care you gave my son. Your office is very caring and it was always a pleasure when we came each time for our visits." J.K.
"I had reconstructive surgery performed by Dr. Nikolov. During the surgery, his team was extremely supportive and professional. Dr. Nikolov did an amazing job. The results of my surgery exceeded any of my expectations. I would like to thank Dr. Nikolov and his medical team for providing such excellent service." L.M.
"Dear Dr. Nikolov, How does one thank a doctor who has done for us what you did? We called you the afternoon before you were leaving for vacation in crisis after our daughter's fall, and you agreed to see us. Upon seeing her you knew she needed surgery and you volunteered to do what it was going to take to operate on her the next morning, which meant canceling your out of town plans. You and your office staff were so gracious and patient with us for the four hours it took into the evening to explain everything that was going to be involved in her procedure. You paid close attention to our concerns about repairing her nose and did the most wonderful job in keeping the integrity of her original shape yet enhancing it. We still smile that you ended up having a landmark case with her septum being split directly up the center, so for your generosity at least you got to have a unique situation for your trouble! (it was the least we could do!) So this is the only way we know how to show you the depth of our appreciation so that others reading this can understand what a phenomenal doctor you truly are. Thank you, thank you, thank you." J.M.
"Thank you for understanding my anxiety and working so hard to accommodate me. It's the difference between caring for your patients and just caring." M.L.
"Thank you so much for your ongoing patience. Your attitude and information were most helpful. I am very pleased with the results from your surgery! In fact, I couldn't be happier! This is a big relief especially since you skillfully corrected all the prior surgeries from others. Now I don't have to hide my breasts! Thanks Again." J.O.
"The breast reduction and liposuction you did are phenomenal. I can't tell you how much better I feel and look in my clothes, especially when I wear a bathing suit. It truly changed my appearance. I absolutely love it. Thanks again Dr. Nikolov, I will definitely recommend you to my friends. I was extremely pleased with your expertise, care, wonderful bedside manners and professionalism. You and your office staff have always been there for me when I needed you. You have done a terrific job." L.C.
"Doctor Nikolov, Thank you so much for your help. I got my life back because of your talents. Thanks!" C.
"Dear Dr. Nikolov, Thank you for listening. Thank you for understanding. Thank you for your talent and knowledge. Thank you for your sense of aesthetics and proportion. Thank you for your expertise. Thank you for your perseverance and patience. Thank you for your professionalism. Thank you for your honesty. I was afraid that I would have to spend the rest of my life marred by decisions prompted by insecurity, vanity, and perhaps worse, a lack of research on my part. Thank you for giving me back a sense of comfort, sensuality, and peace. Your difficult but grateful patient," P.O.
"I would like to share my story with your readers. Several years ago I had a Rhinoplasty (nose job). A friend recommended a much publicized plastic surgeon. I went for the consultation and was quite impressed with the doctor as well as with all the "packaging", i.e. television appearances, magazine articles, and complimentary video tapes. I decided to go through with the surgery. Initially, I thought I had made an improvement in my appearance. But as time went on, I realized that my result was less than natural looking. My nose was now crooked and strangely lop-sided - one side went in & the other went out. I knew one day that I would again have to face additional surgery to correct these mistakes. A few years later after having major abdominal surgery, I was left with a very unsightly 13" scar and a fat deposit on the right side of my abdomen. This scar became increasingly painful. When I noticed permanent sutures rising to the skin surface, I decided it was time to seek help. I consulted with a young plastic surgeon by the name of Dr. Nicholas R. Nikolov, F.A.C.S. He was a god send. Not only did he nearly make that nasty scar disappear. He also flattened out my abdomen with liposuction, and most surprisingly, he corrected my nose. Dr. Nikolov actually made my nose straight and even. Before, close friends confided in me that it looked like I had a nose job. Now I'm not self-conscious about my nose at all. I am so impressed with my new doctor that I want your readers to know of him. Dr. Nikolov has a fantastic bedside manner. He took his time with me and allowed me to ask all the questions regarding the procedures I had on my long list. I never once felt rushed or that I was part of a factory. At all times Dr. Nikolov had my best interests in mind. He realistically told me what he could do to help me, and then he followed through. And then some. Even his staff was of great value. Thankfully, this time I have found not only a superb plastic surgeon, but someone who sincerely cares." J.K.
"My recovery was so easy and the results are nothing short of amazing. My husband is very impressed and I am thrilled! Thank you for helping me make this happen and all of your wonderful encouragement." R.
"My experience at New Image Cosmetic Surgery (NICS) was superb. The staff, nurses and doctors treated me with the up most respect, professionalism and care. I really felt that my health and well being was their number one mission. I could not be happier with the results of my procedure, the care given to me, and the cost for the whole experience. I highly recommend NICS to anyone looking for cosmetic procedures." G.C.
"I wanted a doctor who would listen to me and answer all of my questions and I had a lot. I needed the best and found Dr. Jeffry Schafer developer of the Weekend Recovery Lazer-Lift. A weekend recovery gave me a natural youthful appearance without having an 'operated' look." G.
"Dr. Schafer, I felt very confident in your expertise in performing such a delicate surgery of the eyes. The recovery of my surgery was painless. I am delighted with my new, more rested appearance and the bags are gone from under my eyes." S.
"I wanted to take a minute to thank you and your staff for the wonderful treatment that I received before, during and after my liposculpture procedure. I couldn't have asked for anything more. You are an extremely talented surgeon." L.
I just wanted to take a minute to thank each and every one of you that played a part in the transformation I went through. From the minute I walked through the door till my last post op appointment before leaving, I just wanted to thank you and let others know that they are in good hands.Literally!!! I thought that the results that I was looking for were realistic, but the actual outcome is AMAZING!! I wish people could honestly realize how you feel when it's all said and done with, all I have to say is, "Thank You". One, for saving my career and two, for my "beautiful body"! J.C.
I had visited several places and talked to few doctors, however nothing kept my attention like New Image Cosmetic Surgery. They have an amazing staff, an awesome approach and attitude towards their patients, and their pleasant atmosphere made me confident that I was in the right place. My first consult with Dr Darcy was very promising but I was still afraid because I had never had surgery before and I was concerned about being able to handle post-op care. Eventually I had the liposuction procedure done and that was the best decision I could have ever made!! Dr Darcy was amazing! He was caring and passionate about every aspect of my recovery. He was always ready to answer any and all questions and address all of my concerns. Post-op care was beyond my expectations. I am thrilled with my new body and the outcome greatly exceeded my hopes. This procedure is the beginning of a new chapter in my life. I am re-motivated and strong, like before, to face every day challenges; furthermore, my continuing healthy and active life style will emphasize the results of my liposuction procedure. New Image Cosmetic Surgery and Spa, Thank You very much for giving me this chance, it means a lot. I am very happy and very grateful for everything that I have experienced. Thank You to the wonderful nurses and staff for the help and encouragement. M.M.
"My decision to have reconstructive surgery was something that made me uneasy for a while. When I made my consultation appointment with New Image Cosmetic Surgery I wasn't really sure if I was actually going to go ahead with a procedure or not. At that time I was merely looking into the possibility of plastic surgery. After meeting with Dr. Bivens and his team, I was so impressed and I truly felt like they were there to help me .I went ahead with my breast augmentation and the results were incredible. Not only was Dr. Bivens one of the most caring and passionate people that I've ever had the pleasure to work with, but I was able to return to work within 48 hours, and school within 72. I couldn't have asked for better results and a more caring team to work with. I have them to thank for a brand new me, and a brand new confidence I had been lacking for far too long." M.F.
"All my life I've struggled with being overweight. I grew up with the mentality that you were only beautiful if you were thin, so being compared to my gorgeous, skinny sister, being beautiful myself never seemed like an option for me. At the beginning of 2011 coming out of an abusive relationship, I decided that I wouldn't allow myself to continue to feel the way I did about myself. I started dieting like crazy and taking Zumba classes, but after losing 25 pounds my body got stubborn and the scale wouldn't budge anymore. That's when I met Dr. Bivens. He introduced me to liposuction surgery and even though I was skeptical at first, it gave me hope. Dr. Bivens really made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process and made me realize that the surgery wouldn't be a way out, but a helping hand to keep going with my weight loss. After I had the surgery, I gradually lost 11 more pounds the next two weeks, and it wasn't until then that I started to feel a boost of confidence I never had. I started working out at the gym at least 4 days a week, keeping an everyday strict diet and the weight just kept coming off. I've always been one to have low self esteem, but now, over 60 pounds later I can finally say that I am happy with who I am. I realize now that it was never was about being thin, but accomplishing something I never thought was possible, figuring out the way I deserve to be treated and finally being able to love myself - inside and out. New Image Cosmetic Surgery has helped change my life. I thank you all." J.G.
"I am a 44 year old male, 5’ 9” tall, 160 lbs., and in good shape. Over the years, I developed fat pockets around my waist and in my breast area. Although I exercised every day, endless push-ups, sit-ups, and nautilus exercise did not reduce these fatty areas. Because I have a slim build, even daily aerobic classes didn’t work. When I lost weight, I lost it in my legs, arms and face; everywhere but the targeted areas, my waist and breasts. I thought about my problem every day. My belt always seemed tight, my skin felt loose, and I didn’t enjoy looking at myself in the mirror. I knew about liposuction as a possible alternative, but, like most people in my situation, I was reluctant to pursue liposuction as a method of reducing my fatty deposits. What were the risks? Did the advantages outweigh the risks? Would I be pleased with the result? These were the questions that went through my mind. Then, one day, I reached a breaking point. After consulting with a number of plastic surgeons, I met with Dr. Marshall. Dr. Marshall was obviously serious about his profession. He thoroughly described the procedure, risks, and goals associated with my particular circumstance. He was sympathetic but candid, and I appreciated his frankness in helping me to make this very important decision. Then and there I made my decision to undergo the procedure. I was scheduled for liposuction within two weeks of my initial visit to Dr. Marshall’s office. Dr. Marshall performed the surgery in a hospital, where I was attended by a team of specialists. I was impressed with the courtesy and professionalism of both Dr. Marshall and the medical team that assisted him. The procedure itself took less than two hours. Dr. Marshall had warned me that there would be discomfort and perhaps some pain. In all honesty, there was a "stinging” sensation around the affected areas, and my body was sore. For me, the most significant discomfort lasted for about three days. During this period I pretty much stayed in bed watching television or reading. Then, as Dr. Marshall predicted, I entered a different phase of the process. At the end of the third day the discomfort gave way to soreness and some numbness in concentrated areas. I was much more mobile. Within five days I was back at work, wearing the tight fitting garment that Dr. Marshall placed on me after surgery and insisted I wear for 8 to 12 weeks. You get used to wearing the garment, and it is essential for support and result. Every day that went by brought different sensations in the involved areas and more overall body mobility. Rest gave way to walking, stationary bike riding, and ultimately exercising. Today, seven months later, I can’t tell that I had the procedure, except for the fact that those ugly fatty pockets are gone. My pants fit as they should, people have noticed a change in my appearance (but of course don’t know why), and most importantly, I like what I see in the mirror. The result is excellent. I can honestly say that my decision to have liposuction was one of the best I have made in my adult life. I won’t say that the procedure was completely without pain, discomfort or inconvenience. But in my case, these feelings were short lived. Just a few months after the surgery the entire episode seemed like a dream, but the results are present long term. Having gone through the procedure, I would not hesitate to do it again. This is a statement I can gladly make every day when I look at myself in the minor."
"I am 21 years old, 5’4” and about 130 lbs. My stats pre-op were that I had a 31” ribcage and fit nicely into a 34 B bra, measuring 8” across each breast. I am pear shaped, because I was measuring 34" across the fullest part of my bust, 26” waist, and 37” hips. While I had the same breast size since I was about 14, the rest of my body continued to mature. At the age of 14, I started wearing lightly lined bras. By my freshman year in college, I was wearing fully padded bras and still was unhappy. In my sophomore year of college I purchased silicone enhancers that I could wear anywhere, especially in the pool. The enhancers boosted my confidence because they moved with my body and no one knew I was wearing them while I was poolside. Unfortunately, during the summer of 2000, I was at my engagement party and was thrown into the pool I had not secured my enhancers to the swimsuit and they fell out. My fiancée’s sister found them floating on the top while I was frantically searching for them underwater. That night and the months thereafter I had nightmares about my enhancers falling out of my wedding dress while walking down the aisle or while dancing at the reception. I have a low back wedding gown and wearing a regular bra would be out of the question. As soon as I returned from Florida back to school in Cambridge, I began to seriously research getting the operation. I was not going to feel bad about my looks any longer and I was going to enjoy my wedding day! I began to do tremendous research on the internet, asking questions at breast augmentation forums, watching online surgeries, and researching local plastic surgeons. I found Dr. Kenneth Marshall through my research and knew that he met the criteria of a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. So immediately I made an appointment for a consultation visit. I was extremely pleased after that visit and within a few weeks, it was time to permanently enhance my body image. On February 7, 2001, I went to Mt. Auburn Hospital for surgery. Both the staff of Dr. Marshall’s office and the hospital staff were excellent and made sure that I was comfortable and happy throughout the entire process. For instance, Dr. Marshall's nurse made sure that I met with someone in anesthesia so that I could receive medication that would not allow me to feel the post-op nausea I usually felt after surgery under general anesthesia. The hospital staff made sure that I felt comfortable in the recovery room and I did not experience any great pain. The feeling I had coming out of the recovery room was not as bad as everyone said it would be. The round, textured implants were placed under the muscle through a crease incision, but I am sure I would have felt the same as a woman who got them over the muscle. It felt like a small child or a bowling ball was sitting on my breasts. I was not comfortable lying down because the pressure was greatest in that position. When they sat me up to a reclining position, it hurt quite a bit due to the movement, but it relieved the pressure. While in the recovery room I felt the urge to lean all the way forward to take all the pressure off, but that would have stretched all my muscles and caused a little more pain, which I soon discovered when I was trying to get dressed and had to stand up. The 5 minute ride home was not bad at all. When we got home, my fiancée had everything already set up and started me on my medications, which he picked up while I was in the operating room. The couch and about 5 pillows became my best friends for the next two days. I felt best sitting up, so we put pillows on the coffee table for me to prop up my legs and that is how I remained, day and night for the next few days. I required help getting up and sitting down. I also needed to be fed and needed help for going to the bathroom. My arms were useless for the first full week. After one week post-op, my strength returned but I did not feel comfortable doing too much. Now, three weeks post, I can lift my arms over my head and pick things up. I still avoid doing too much, just to be on the safe side. I am a fulltime nanny, so using my arms are important, but I have had no problems, except dodging kicking baby legs. As for my breasts, I did not look at them until after Dr. Marshall saw them at the follow up visit, two days after surgery. I was able to look at them in the shower and they were very swollen and hard. They also measured 12” across on each breast. Currently, they are getting much softer, especially after I massage them lightly, and have dropped quite a bit. What I mean by that is that right after surgery they started about 4 fingers below my collarbone and now they are about 6 fingers below. I also had to hold onto them every time I bent over, but that feeling is going away as well. There is still some upper pole fullness, but not as much as last week or the week before. Everyday really does get better! Prior to the procedure I asked to be a full C/small D cup. When doing online research, I noticed many women going for implants of 425cc and up to achieve that size. When I came out of the surgery and was told that I had 330cc’s I thought I was going to be too small. Today, they measure 11” across. I am still in my surgical bra, which was uncomfortable the first week but now I feel totally unsupported without it (like in the shower). I did try on some bras two days ago and I fit wonderfully into a 36 D. The 34 D and DD’s do not feel right for some reason, but I know I have a lot more settling to do, so I don’t know where I will end up exactly. When I look at my profile, these breasts even out my very round and protruding rear end. I don’t care so much about the final size as I do about my overall proportion. Dr. Marshall did a perfect job of making me look natural, which was important because only my fiancée knows about the surgery. I know I could wear enhancers for the rest of my life, but that would deny me a lot of freedom while doing activities that I truly enjoy, like being active on the beach back home. There is something liberating about having nothing but a layer of fabric between my clothing and me. I had not worn an unpadded bra for seven years, so I am still getting used to seeing my own breasts under clothing. At this point I feel like I’ve always had them and I think it shows in my confidence. I did not know what a difference this operation would make. I always obsessed about other women’s sizes, my size, all the clothing I could not fit into, etc. But getting implants have really made me just mentally relax. I also thought that after the operation I would start obsessing about other things wrong with me, like weight, but I am not. It really was my breast size that was causing all my years of unhappiness. If I had known that within three weeks of my surgery, I could have an awesome body and live life normally, I would have done this sooner. I wish you the best of luck with your procedure and hope that you will be as happy as I am. We all deserve this happiness for ourselves and it is well worth it!"
"My so called obsession with my "pot belly” started as a little girl. My mom always said "it’s just baby fat" and it will go away when you get older. Well despite trillions of sit-ups and endless aerobics sessions that "baby fat” was still with me at the age of 37. In the back of my mind I had always thought of liposuction but would never dare to do it. Last year I found myself in a situation where I was able to educate myself on the subject and in turn I became more comfortable with the prospect of actually considering going through with it. The surgery itself was a breeze. Post-op I felt a little sore for a few weeks, but nothing unbearable. I went into day surgery on Thursday and was back at work on Monday. I had a root canal recently that was a lot more painful and much more of a hassle. Well here I am 5 months post-op and I am thrilled with my new stomach. No longer do I have that little pouch under my belly button. My clothing fits better and I no longer have to wear baggy shirts to cover my belly. I bought a bikini recently and I actually wore it to the beach over the weekend— haven’t done that since I was seventeen."
"I lifted my chin and showed him a 60 year old scar that started under my chin and ended 3 1/2 inches down my chest. My neck was sagging and the scar tissue was very visible. Dr. Marshal explained what he could do and informed me that during the same time period he could give me a facelift and do my eyes. I was extremely pleased with the results. Not only was the scar not prominent, but my face looked great. There were no visible scars where Dr. Marshall stitched. On a routine trip Dr. Marshall told me about OBAGI Nu-Derm System, an at-home regimen using a complete line of cleansers, toners and creams. I started using soon after my facelift and am still using them to this day. I also used them on my neck and chest where my scar was and I can no longer see my scar. A year after my facelift I had another consultation with Dr. Marshall and asked him if he could remove the wrinkles from near my eyes. The results were so unbelievable that there is no way I will ever put makeup on my face again or go in the sun without excellent sun protection (I use Obagi sun block). Over the years I have kept in touch with the staff at Dr. Marshall's office. I order all the Obagi products I need and I ask questions about new products that have come out. They are really wonderful, knowledgeable people. I went to many doctors over the past 10 years to rid myself of the ugly scar and was told they could possible take a piece of skin from another part of my body to cover it. I'm so glad I waited and found a doctor that not only knew what he was doing but always asked what I wanted him to do, and knew so much about the maintenance of his work. Now it is so wonderful to look in the mirror and see a reflection of myself." T.
"I was not aging well. I had puffiness and sagging under my eyes. Skin drooping over my eyelids, many deep wrinkles around my mouth and triple chins. Dr. Marshall performed a facelift for me which tightened the eyelids and all but eliminated the puffy circles under my eyes. He tightened the skin on my face and neck. The only chin I have now is the one I'm supposed to have. I look and feel years younger! My friends say retirement has taken years off my face, but my secret is cosmetic surgery with Dr. Marshall. Now I can grow old gracefully." J.
"Having my tummy tuck two years ago, I am still 100% sure it was the right thing to do. The surgery and subsequent recovery were quite easy, the scarring minimal, and the results terrific and lasting..." W.

"Dear Dr. Marshall, This is a long, overdue letter of thanks for your help and expert care. First, you gave me post-surgical care and did expert corrective surgery to repair the scar from an accident in New Jersey. Last fall, following cosmetic surgery, bees or wasps attacked the healing wound. This lead to complications beyond anything I had imagined. You were exceptionally kind to help me with emergency, middle-of-the-night surgery. I am sure it was no easy feat to line up an operating room and anesthesiologist. I was scared with so much bleeding but you reassured me and my husband and did everything necessary to fix the harm that had been done. You must've made rounds that morning without getting any sleep. At this Thanksgiving time I want to be sure to give thanks to you. You are a wonderful doctor and I am one extremely fortunate patient. With sincere apprecation," M.R.
"I'm a 52 year old woman who has just had a breast reduction. The reduction was not always something I had thought about until 2 years ago, when my PCP (Primary Care Physician) recommended I look into it. I had been having backaches and a lot of chaffing underneath my breasts. Perhaps the worst thing I had noticed was myself getting more and more round-shouldered. I had the surgery done 2 months ago. It was quick and painless. The first thing I noticed was only 48 hours after surgery. I was in a beach chair in my yard, and I noticed my shoulders pulled back as they always used to be. My backaches have disappeared. An added bonus is the way my breasts now look in clothing. I am still healing and notice small things all the time. It was definitely the best thing I could have done for myself." M.
"Dear Dr. Marshall, Thank you so much for making my body image dreams into a reality. I now can walk confidently down the street and enjoy the world around me instead of being self conscious. I truly cannot wait until I get to Miami and can go swimming without enhancers! You have made it possible to improve many aspects of my lifestyle and without anyone realizing that there has been any physical change. The transition from pre breast augmentation to post was incredibly smooth and I have you to thank." H.
Dr. deLeeuw & Staff, I truly appreciate everything you all did for me on surgery day! I could not be happier with the results!! I thank all of you very much! S
To Dr. deLeeuw, Thank you for giving me back my "pre-baby" body and for all of your kindness. You all made me feel so comfortable and welcome!
Doctor & Staff, I would like to thank Dr. and Staff for all the kindness that I received from the office. He sure is a miracle worker. God Bless.
"Dear Dr. Goldberg, Thank you so much for helping me with my new "Facial Regime" – I wouldn't have been able to do it without your thoughtfulness in costs. You are a genuine and caring doctor and I know your patients see that right away. Thanks again for everything!" K.M.
"Dear Laura, (Office Manager) Thank you so much for everything you've done for me. Without your help – none of this would have been possible." R.
"Dear Dr. Goldberg: I received your letter. And I was very happy and grateful for your letter. I am also very grateful for the work you did with my surgery. You have made my life a happy one. May God bless your hands, Doctor Goldberg. I have recommended you to my friends. May God give you many, many years of happiness. It would be my pleasure to give you permission to display my picture. I would like to arrange an appointment with you again. If there is any recommendation that you can give me to keep looking beautiful, I would sure appreciate it. God Bless you Doctor Goldberg! You're always on my mind and in my heart. Thank you." I.A.
"Dear Dr. Goldberg, I don't know how to begin to thank you for all you have done for me. When I arrived at HUMC emergency I really didn't know how serious my injury was. I thank God that you were the doctor who first looked at me that day. You really put me at ease with your caring and professionalism. I cannot believe how good my nose looks now after seeing it that day. It's a miracle! Thank you again and God bless you." M.D.
"Dear Dr. Goldberg, Thank you for repairing my wrist nerves. I am practicing with my right hand to write this note. You are a wonderful and kind surgeon. God bless you!!" A.
"Dr. Goldberg, You have changed my life. I can't begin to tell you what a difference you have made. The "girls" are gorgeous. I'd like to show them off to everyone, but I'll maintain my composure. Only you and my husband will be the lucky guys..." B.C.
"Dear Dr. Goldberg, I just wanted to say thank you for being so nice and helpful to me. I have never been to a doctor's office and been treated so nicely. You are such a special person! Thank you for what you did for me. I am very grateful to you and happy with how everything turned out. You did a perfect job. Thank you for the excellent care you gave me. You are a great doctor! Sincerely," L.M.
"Dearest Doctor, Wonderful Doctor, Unbelievable Doctor, I've been trying for days to get my thoughts and words together but I'm still at a loss to express my heartfelt thanks and appreciation for all your kindness to me. And the result is just unbelievable!!! I'll never forget you or "all" you did for me and your staff. I wish you every happiness from the bottom of my heart. God bless you, your family and all who assisted you." C.R.
"Dear Dr. Goldberg, I wanted to thank you for the excellent services that you provided for my daughter, Faith. You made her feel at ease with the entire process and took great care to make sure that her bone healed properly. We are so thankful for your wonderful attention to make sure that the bone wasn't going to cause her any problems in the future." W.C.
"Dr. Huq's optimum lift is amazing. There was only a few days of downtime and hardly any bruising. There was really no pain the next day and it was half the cost of a full facelift!"
"Dr. Huq does a great job with breast reductions, especially with liposuction. They moved up, are firm, and look great. I should have done this years ago. My back thanks him so much. We need more doctors like him."
"Dr. Huq did an amazing job for me. I had the optimum lift and was very pleased with the results. I had a few days of down time, a bit of bruising and soreness, but I was so impressed with the results that I would do it again in a minute. The girls in the office were great and I could call at anytime with any questions that I had. There is no need to go all the way to Toronto or the states for any cosmetic surgery as we have a great doctor right here in Niagara. I would confidently recommend him to anyone who is looking to feel better about their appearance. Thank you Doctor Huq!!!"
"It was the best decision I've ever made. I look 10 years younger. My friends and family say I look terrific. I was amazed that it only took a few hours in the clinic. I had my procedure done on a Tuesday and was out for lunch with friends on Saturday! They couldn't believe how much younger and rested that I looked. I definitely recommend this procedure." L.
"Dr. Huq is a genius. His office face and neck lift is amazing. I was considering surgery for years but did not want a risky general anesthetic. I had leathery, wrinkled neck that I thought was just scaring my grandkids. One of them would even come up to me and grab the turkey waddle under my chin and flap it around. All of the surgery was done in Dr. Huq's office and I was able to just walk in and walk out. I hardly had any pain. My family is amazed. They said I look just like me, only 20 years younger. I have been so pleased with Dr. Huq and his office staff. The girls are dynamite. I recommend Dr. Huq very highly." L.
"I am thrilled with the results of the skin care products I have been using that Dr. Huq recommended. I used to wash with soap and water - that's it! I never needed to use anything else. Now that I'm using Dr. Huq's products my friends notice a big difference. My skin is vibrant! Now they're using them too!" L.
"I felt completely comfortable with Dr. Huq. His bedside manner was excellent. I had full confidence in him before my surgery and was extremely happy with the after care and the final results. Thank you Dr. Huq!" M.
"Thank you for such excellent care. You made a terrible situation bearable. It really did make the long road to healing a smooth ride after my car accident." D.
"I used to spend hundreds of dollars on department store products for skin care. I thought I was happy with them, until Dr. Huq recommended his line of products. I was amazed with the actual results after only 3 months. My sun spots were gone. My skin was brighter, smoother and radiant. It even got rid of fine lines around my eyes. My friends noticed the difference and wanted to know what I was doing. They had no idea it was as simple as skin care products - 3 of my friends are now using them too. Thank you Dr. Huq!" A.
"Staff are very efficient and friendly - they make you feel welcomed. Dr. Huq does wonderful plastic surgery. He has helped me regain my health and self esteem. Life is good." M.
"Thank you, Dr. Huq, for the fantastic lipo surgery you recently did for me. I'm very excited with the results. Your cheerful personality and encouragement to do my part and lose weight before surgery was the motivation I needed, and to date I have lost 25 lbs. I feel healthier and have more energy to enjoy life. You and your staff have been wonderful, always so pleasant and helpful. I would like to thank all of you for making me so happy. Procedure Performed: Lipoplasty (Liposuction Surgery)." M.
"I'm very happy with the results and especially comments I get from people who haven't seen me in a few years!" B.
"The whole staff is wonderful 🙂 Thanks for all your help with my questions, surgery and after care." S.
"I researched for over a year and decided on Dr. Huq to do my mini-lift even though he is a 2 hour drive away and I have 6 plastic surgeons right in my own city. The main reason was that I DID not want general anesthesia. I WAS SO IMPRESSED with Dr. HUQ the first time I met him that I knew that this was the guy that I wanted to do my facelift. He is SO CONFIDENT and ENTHUSIASTIC about his own version of the minilift (the Optimum Lift) and he truly believes that the average wage earner like me should be able to afford a facelift. He suggested including an eyelift too to get a totally refreshed look but he DID NOT pressure me into including it. Well I got the lift, the eyelids done and a little lipo under my chin for under $9,000 with just local freezing and light oral sedation and the procedure was painless and the results are INCREDIBLE! I am still healing but I can tell the eye scars will totally disappear and I can't even find the facelift scars. DR. HUQ is an ARTIST! HIGHLY RECOMMEND." J.A.
"I love the fact there was a cancellation list in place for appointments, as well as, surgery. I was done 2 months ahead of original appointment and happy with the outcome. Thank you." L.
"Dr. Huq made me feel very comfortable. He is easy to talk to and does not rush you through. He shows interest." G.
"He should definitely market the 'Huq Tuck'! :)" H.
"I wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the excellent care and compassion you showed me during my recent surgery. This was shown by the manner in which you handled the initial consultation, advocated for me when the hospital didn't want me to stay overnight, and followed up with a call from your home just before Christmas to check on me a week later. Also, a thank you to Vikki for her excellent follow-up care and patient handling of my questions. In addition, your office staff was always polite and pleasant and willing to be of help, which is not always the case in other practices. When I was worried about a possible infection, they fit me in promptly, and, thankfully, you assured me that I was fine. Undergoing a procedure such as mine was a scary thing to do, and you made it one which I do not regret, and would recommend to others who may be considering plastic surgery." T.
"I really want express my sincere appreciation for you and your talent. Another few mm and I would have lost my whole hand. Most important was that I did this when you were available to fix it. God seems to oversee stupid people like me! I simply want to thank so very much for your dedication and talent. Your confidence and good humour left me comfortable and assured that my thumb was safe in your hands." D.
"With warm appreciation for all you've given of your time, your energy, and yourself. Thank you for making a difference in my life. Lots and lots of 'Huqs'!" D.
“M.W. and I would like to thank you for taking on his care. The operation has given him back his face! He breathes better, can sleep better and continues to improve daily. Most importantly, he can smile again!” M.W.
“From the first time I met Dr. Van Laeken, she put me at ease. She was very honest with me and gave me her unconditional attention each and every time I saw her at the office or in the hospital. Having to have a mastectomy was hard enough to deal with and she made it feel like it would be just another walk in the park for me. She always gave me the pros and cons of all my options. What sealed the deal for me was at my first visit when we were deciding on my best options for the reconstructive surgery. When she found out I had fibromyalgia she said the flap procedure would not be feasible as it would take me much longer to recouperate. She also said it was my choice but if I insisted on that one she wouldn’t be able to help me. Then, I knew I had a surgeon who cared for her patients for more than just a name in the O.R. When my mother came with me on one of my post op visits, she sat with her and answered all her questions even though her waiting room was full. I would recommend her to anyone who was looking for a plastic surgeon.” S.H.
“I am sorry it is only now that I am able to collect my thoughts and write you to thank you so much for the surgery you have performed on me in January 2009. Words cannot express my heart -felt gratitude for giving me a better life! I am now back to a more happy and positive outlook. Thank you so much! We always pray for your good health so that you will be able to help other people like us cope with the challenges of cancer.” E.F.
“Thank you so much for time and dedication to my healing over this past year!” P.K.
“In April 2000, I had five bypasses which were successful, however, while in the hospital, I managed to pick up several viruses. One infected my sternum. Due to the infection, Dr. Van Laeken was called in to repair or install an artificial type of sternum. However, the infection was so bad that she made a decision to use part of my Pectoral Muscle to cover the lost sternum and to also protect my ribs. Dr. Van Laeken is a very talented, caring doctor. My wife and I both feel that her quick decision at that crucial time saved my life! Dr. Van Laeken was at that time and will always remain, our “Guardian Angel." G.W.

“Nancy Van Laeken is most supportive and professional surgeon I have ever met! I came to see Nancy to correct an eye imbalance. She corrected the problem and I was thrilled with the results and with Nancy’s friendly and professional meeting with me. She is the only surgeon I would recommend and go to in the future! My only regret is I had not found her earlier.” J.A.
“I can’t thank you enough for what you have done for me! You have given me back the body I had before I had three babies, two of which were close to 10lbs. You truly have a gift for what you managed to accomplish. You have changed my life! I have more confidence and my back is stronger now that the muscles in my abdomen have been repaired. Visually, my body makes me feel more confident in everything I do.” R.G.
“Amazing work!” N.M.
"Dear Dr. Afridi, As far as my results with my breast augmentation I couldn't be happier. You did exactly what I wanted. The results are so natural if it wasn't for the scar no one would know. I would highly recommend anyone to you for breast augmentation or any other procedure. You take time with your patients and fully explain in details what to expect. You and your staff were fantastic I felt as if we were family I was so comfortable with you . You are not only my doctor you are a friend and I am some happy I chose you."
"Dear Dr. Afridi, Cynthia, Ceci, Gail and Barbara, Thank you all so much for making this entire experience for me so incredibly wonderful.The process has been so comfortable for me and I am grateful for your support and thoughtfulness. PS. - Dr. Afridi, like you said I'd be, I am a Victoria's Secret 32C! I don't think I ever spent so much time at Victoria's Secret before! Thank you again so much!!" F.K.
"Dear Dr. Afridi, I just wanted to send a special thanks to you. I could not be happier with my results. You listened and understood my concerns with the breast augmentation. I don't know if many people have the trust in a doctor, but with you I knew I was in good hands. You gave me exactly the look I wanted... You're truly talented, and I wish you much success." F.J.
"Thank you so much for your wonderful spa-like care during my liposuction. Great team, great patient education, great sense of humor about the whole thing. It definitely put me more at ease!" S.
"Dr. Moffitt changed my life! For years and years I had thought about having Breast Reduction surgery, and finally decided to do it. What a wonderful feeling it was to finally shop at Victoria's Secret! It's only been about 10 months since my surgery, and my scars are barely visible!" T.M.
"I met Dr. Moffitt when I accompanied my friend to her surgery. (She had gone to 7 other consultations in the area, and chose Dr. Moffitt!) I was so impressed with every aspect of her work, as well as the way my friend was treated after her surgery, that I booked my consultation and surgery just a couple weeks later! I am so glad I entrusted Dr. Moffitt with my surgery! Thank you!" M.F.
"Dr. Ambe's office is first class in every sense of the word. If I can give other patients advice, you do not need to visit other offices. He is a perfectionist and his attention to detail is unparalleled. His fees are definitely not cheap, but the quality of his care and skill are well worth it. If you want the absolute best care, you should undoubtedly have Dr. Ambe take care of you. He will make sure you get the best... he does not settle for anything less. It is known that he is an artist. I can honestly see why."
"To me, that was the most important recommendation that I could have received. I can say without reservation that she was right. You will never find a more articulate, detailed, and skilled surgeon anywhere. She said that Dr. Ambe was an artist, and she was very accurate. You can tell by the way he evaluates every detail. My result was fabulous, and each and every one of my friends can not believe how natural I look. If you want the stereotypical "pulled"; look of a facelift that we have all seen, do not go to see Dr. Ambe. His attention to detail will not allow it."
"I had the opportunity to see quite a few surgeons regarding a facelift. I finally was referred by a nurse at Hoag Hospital. She told me that of all the surgeons that she had worked with, he was the most meticulous."
"After seeing 5 other surgeons for a breast augmentation consultation, I saw Dr. Ambe. He was so incredibly detailed and had such a strong understanding of all the options for the procedure (with regards to my unusual breast anatomy), I had no doubt in my mind that he was the guy. I can see why patients come from all over the place to see him. If you expect and demand quality, you should absolutely see him."
"There is a reason that Dr. Ambe has the reputation that he does. He is extremely knowledgeable, he is a wonderful communicator, he is honest, and he pays attention to every last detail. I cannot recommend that you see any other surgeons. He is truly the best."
"I had been referred by a friend to see Dr. Ambe for a consultation regarding liposuction. He was so thorough and meticulous. It was easy to understand why so many patients come from all over to see him. The whole experience was so pleasant, and much easier than I thought it would be. I would recommend Dr. Ambe to anyone without hesitation."
"I own a salon, and I have had the opportunity over the years of seeing many clients of mine having had facelifts. I saw one of mine that Dr. Ambe had operated on. She absolutely had an incredible result. He is so meticulous that the scars were imperceptible. I have since had a facelift myself by Dr. Ambe. The entire experience was much easier than I could have ever imagined. He is truly an artist in every sense of the word. I have since referred at least 10 clients to him, all of whom have had incredible results. If you want a natural result with attention to detail, see Dr. Ambe."
"I saw quite a few surgeons over some time, as I was really doing quite a bit of research regarding a breast augmentation. When I met Dr. Ambe, I was truly amazed how thorough he was during the consultation. He is obviously very busy, and he still treated me as though I was the only patient in the office. His office is a reflection of what a perfectionist he is... every last detail. Most importantly, the results have been phenomenal."
"Dr. Ambe was incredible. His staff was warm and caring and very professional. Without a doubt, you can not find a classier office."
"If there is one thing that I can say about Dr. Ambe is that he will make you feel comfortable and he will educate you fully about the procedure you are interested in. I saw several surgeons concerning a tummy tuck, and I was amazed at how much time he spent with me in the initial consultation. He is incredibly busy, and yet he does not compromise the time he spends with you. Every patient that I know that has seen him has been treated like gold, and they all have had wonderful results."
"If I can give advice to other prospective patients, do not waste your time seeing several surgeons. Go and see Dr. Ambe. He is honest, articulate, extremely skilled, and incredibly warm. His results speak a thousand words---tremendous."
"I was very anxious about seeing anyone regarding a breast augmentation consultation. My friends had referred me to Dr. Ambe, and I immediately was made to feel comfortable. He definitely has a way about him that puts you at ease and instills this sense of confidence. He also is the consummate perfectionist."
"I saw over 20 surgeons spanning 3 years to find one that I could entrust to operate on my face. I had a browlift, eyelift, and facelift. The result has been unbelievable. Dr. Ambe is a true artist, and he will not settle for anything less than perfection."
"I had been looking for a surgeon to perform a facelift on me. I did as much research as one possibly could, and I actually flew across the country to have Dr. Ambe operate on me. His reputation is incredible, and as soon as I met him and his staff, I could understand why. Everything about the experience was as it should have been. Dr. Ambe spent a tremendous amount of time explaining every aspect of the procedure. I was able to see wonderful examples of his work, and I was able to talk to some of his patients regarding their experience. The surgery center was top notch, and Dr. Ambe's care after the procedure was meticulous and caring."
"You may want to see several surgeons regarding a procedure you are interested in, but I can guarantee that no surgeon or office will treat you with the professionalism and skill that Dr. Ambe's office does."
"I had been thinking about a breast augmentation for several years, and I can honestly say that I saw at least 10 surgeons before I saw Dr. Ambe. After seeing him, interacting with the office staff, and actually having the opportunity to speak to some of his patients, there was no doubt in my mind that he was the right surgeon. My choice was correct, as I have had a fabulous result. I already have referred at least 7 friends of mine to see him."
"Dr. Ambe is first class all the way. I had a great experience. He really knows breast surgery. I had known from my research that a breast lift combined with an augmentation was a technically difficult procedure, but I knew that is what was needed. He achieved the best shape that I could have ever imagined. He is so detailed, right down to the post-operative protocols for scar prevention. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised how smoothly everything went. It is because Dr. Ambe and his staff attend to every detail the way it should be. I can guarantee that you will never find a surgeon or office staff that will take care of you like Dr. Ambe's. They were absolutely incredible. . .I could have never imagined that having a breast augmentation could be so smooth and easy. Dr. Ambe and his staff truly do a great job of preparing their patients as to what to expect."
"I am pretty thin, but I had a couple of areas on my outer thighs and hips that I needed liposuction on. I saw a whole slew of doctors, and then I saw Dr. Ambe. His demeanor is very genuine and he immediately instills confidence. Most importantly, he cares so much about the little details. I had an absolutely great result. I would recommend him to anyone without reservation. Don't waste your time seeing a lot of surgeons. You see him, and you will realize why he gets great results."
"I had an abdominoplasty performed by Dr. Ambe. All I can say is that it changed my life. He and his staff were so warm and caring, every step of the way. I cannot tell you what a phenomenal change there is in the shape of my abdomen. He is a true artist."
"I came from Northern California to see Dr. Ambe. I was told by several people up in the Bay Area that he was the guy to see. It was well worth traveling the distance. He was incredible and his staff was incredible. If I can give advice to other people that are looking for a Plastic Surgeon, do not save a couple of hundred dollars here or there. Go see him. His bedside manner and meticulous nature are worth every penny."
"Dr. Ambe's office is first class all the way. I had a great experience. Not only is he very warm and caring, but everyone in his office is as well. They are professional in every sense of the word."
"If you are "shopping" for a Plastic Surgeon for a breast augmentation, I can honestly tell you that you should go straight to Dr. Ambe's office. He knows every aspect of the procedure down to the very last detail. I have had friends that were dissatisfied with their results from other surgeons... they went to him and were taken care of appropriately, with incredible care and results. His prices are not inexpensive, but you get quality of care and results that are worth it."
"I had been referred to Dr. Ambe for a breast augmentation by 4 friends, each having had great results. What I found so refreshing about him was his warm and caring demeanor. He spends so much time with you, and I have no idea how he does it, because he is extremely busy. Going in for a consultation for breast surgery can be quite uncomfortable, and he has the ability to immediately make you feel comfortable. I can not say enough about the experience. I tell my friends not to think of seeing any one else."
"I had seen many surgeons over the last several years. It is an important decision when it comes to having someone operate on your face. I kept hearing Dr. Ambe's name keep coming up, and I finally made the decision to see him in consultation. I could immediately sense that he was incredibly meticulous, everything from the feel of the office to the way in which he evaluated and explained everything to me. As soon as I reviewed his before and after portfolio for facial procedures, everything I had heard was confirmed. His results are incredible, and, most importantly, very natural. I had a facelift, browlift, and eyelift. I can honestly say that it was the best decision that I ever made to see him. Not only was his technical expertise unbelievable, but he also handled every aspect of the care with such attention to detail. Most importantly, his bedside manner was amazing. Everything I heard about him was true."
"Dr. Ambe and his staff made me feel comfortable from the time I first walked in the office. The professionalism and caring were apparent right from the beginning. The entire experience was wonderful, and I can not thank Dr. Ambe enough for the wonderful results I was able to achieve."
"The greatest satisfaction for Dr. Ambe and his staff is to have patients share their gratitude concerning their experience in our office. We are truly grateful that many of our patients have candidly shared their experiences."
"I initially came to Dr. Ambe to have my eyelids lifted. Dr. Ambe and his staff made me feel so comfortable not only did I have blepharoplasty but the following month I had breast augmentation. My results are absolutely amazing! Dr. Ambe is incredible. As a former operating room nurse, I have seen and worked with many surgeons. You will not find a more skilled surgeon than Dr. Ambe!"
"I had been considering cosmetic surgery for a while and last year I started to investigate my options for breast augmentation. I searched the internet to educate myself on the different types of breast implants as well as the pros and cons of having surgery. My next step was finding several doctors who perform breast augmentations and set up consultations. I recommend consulting with three different doctors so that you can compare notes and feel good about your final selection. As luck would have it, I came across Dr. Ambe because he uses a certain type of implant that I was very interested in. When I arrived for my appoinment at Dr. Ambe's office, I noticed how many people were in the waiting room and thought he must be good at what he does if all these people are waiting to see him. I was seated in Dr. Ambe's beautiful office and had my folder that was full of questions and concerns that I was going to ask him. When Dr. Ambe entered the room and introduced himself, I was surprised to see him in a suit instead of a white coat. I was pretty nervous but it didn't take long before I could see that he was a genuine doctor who was willing to take the time to answer all of my questions and go over all of my options. I asked Dr. Ambe if he thought I was too old to have breast implants at 54 years old, since most of the photos I saw on his website were patients in their 20's through 40's. He told me that as long as I was in good health, 54 is not too old. I left his office feeling good about our conversation. Dr. Ambe answered all of my questions and before I left, I met with his patient coordinator to explain the next step should I decide to go forward with this procedure. Before I made my final decision, I had two other consultations with different doctors. It is important that you choose a doctor you are going to feel comfortable with. It didn't take long before I decided who was going to do my breast augmentation. My choice was Dr. Ambe because of his professionalism, his long list of educational background and the fact that he is Board Certified. Dr. Ambe also has wonderful people working with him. I have now had my surgery and am very happy with the results. The staff at Newport Center Surgical, where Dr. Ambe performs his surgeries was very nice and caring. The nurse that prepared me for surgery was so kind and told me everything that she was doing. I also met with the anesthesiologist who took great care of me. When I woke up from the surgery, I was extremely tired but that's all. I was not sick to my stomach, nor was I in any pain. After that, the pain medication that Dr. Ambe prescribed kept the pain minimal. In fact I only took pain medications the first day and after that I switched to Extra Strength Tylenol. I wish I would have done this years ago, but there is a reason for everything and I feel very fortunate that I came across Dr. Ambe and that he was able to perform my surgery. For all you women like me who have thought about having some type of plastic surgery, I say it's never too late, just go for it. I'm so glad I did! Breast Augmentation is not just for the young, but the young at heart. I have a lot more living to do and I want to look my best. Should you choose Dr. Ambe as your personal plastic surgeon you will have made a great choice. My sincere thanks to Dr. Ambe and all of his staff members who helped make my cosmetic procedure a pleasant one."
"I can without hesitation recommend Dr. Ambe for your plastic surgery needs. He was highly recommended by my Obstetrician. I wish I had met him sooner. I came to Dr. Ambe after having three prior breast augmentations. Thanks to Dr. Ambe I will not need any more. All my previous surgeries resulted in my breasts hardening and discomfort all of which was resolved by Dr. Ambe. In addition to my breast augmentation I also had a tummy tuck procedure during the same surgery. Not only were the visual results stunning but also I was back to my busy schedule and my children in no time. It's amazing that I did not even have a single bruise and how fast I recovered. His skills are truly remarkable. The office and surgical staff, nurses and facilities are all professional, courteous and competent without match. I hope others can benefit from my story and experience. Do it right the first time and choose Dr. Ambe."
"AGAIN! I returned to Dr. Delgado for my tummy tuck. After bearing a couple of 10 1/2 lb. babies, I look like I'm 19 again (well, at least my tummy does)" J.
"I was impressed with Dr. Delgado's attention to new techniques and his dedication to his profession. The day of my eyelift I felt extremely nervous, but was quickly put at ease by the doctor's staff. After the surgery, which took place in Dr. Delgado's office, his staff made sure I had everything I needed at home and helped immensely. My blepharoplasty was remarkably painless, and I am thrilled with the results!" J.
"Finding the right plastic surgeon can be a very challenging experience. You want to find one that not only has expert skills but also understands exactly what your own personal goals are. After meeting with several plastic surgeons, I met with Dr. Delgado. I had checked his credentials and knew he had the experience and training that was important to me. And then when I met with him I felt an immediate sense that he really understood what I was hoping to achieve, his suggestions were excellent and I am thrilled with my results." J.G.
"Dr. Delgado is very conscientious, kind, and personable. I have had only wonderful experiences with him and his staff. My thighs and tummy are beautiful and scarring from my tummy tuck is quickly fading away." I.
"I have been a client of Dr. Delgado's since April, 1996. At the time, I had been considering cosmetic surgery for a few years, and was naturally apprehensive about my initial consultation with Dr. Delgado. Dr. Delgado sensed my nervousness and immediately put me at ease. In addition to his graciousness and professional demeanor, he answered all my questions in a forthright and specific manner. I was so pleased with the final outcome of my procedure that the following year I had several other procedures performed, including liposuction and facial laser resurfacing. I am thrilled with the results and have only the highest regard for Dr. Delgado, both as a physician and as a person." D.
"I had a tummy tuck and liposuction of my back by Dr. Miguel Delgado. I am so happy with the results of my surgery. I have a whole new body that I can be proud of, my clothes fit better. I can't stop looking in the mirror at my flat stomach, no more pooching belly. The care I received was personal and professional. Dr. Delgado is a meticulous surgeon and takes great pride in his work. His care and sensitivity made my recovery with the least amount of effort. I highly recommend Dr. Delgado for your surgical needs." J.H.
"After years and years of considering breast augmentation, I finally decided to look into it. I researched all topics and studies on implants on the internet and had consultations with 5 qualified surgeons. I knew Dr. Delgado was the best choice. I knew I was going to be a difficult case because of my structure and I felt I could trust Dr. Delgado. I am thrilled with the result! I know I made the best choice. I couldn't be happier!" M.
"Dr. Delgado is more than an excellent surgeon, he is also an artist, a sculptor of bodies. He is only satisfied with a job that's done right. He made me feel safe and confident and I was always treated with friendly respect." A.
"Dr. Cooper is 5 star. She seems to take great pride in her work and she is a perfectionist. Her staff is a very caring group. I don't recommend too many things but Dr. Cooper is one I would." D.D.
"From the very first day, Dr. Cooper made me feel extremely comfortable. She answered all my questions, concerns and gave me all the information needed to make my decision. I was a small B and ended up with a small D. Dr. Cooper help me decide on the right size for me with my type of body frame. She did an excellent job and the outcome was better than I thought. With the surgery, my self esteem has gone up. Overall the experience at Dr. Cooper's office, along with the staff and the surgery went absolutely fantastic. I even recommended Dr. Cooper to my best friend who has currently gone for a consultation." A.U.
"My experience with Dr. Cooper and her staff was the most unique experience I've ever had with any doctor. I was able to reach her when I needed to. She was very patient and understanding with me as well as my husband who was my care giver post surgery. I knew I was in good hands. Her office is such a relaxing atmosphere and her staff is just wonderful. I have and will continue to refer anyone considering any cosmetic procedure to Dr. Cooper." R.T.
"My experience with Dr. Cooper and her staff far exceeded my expectations. I could not have been more pleased with the entire experience. From initial consult to my follow-up visits, I truly felt like I was their top priority. Dr. Cooper is an amazing, and I am absolutely thrilled with my results. I feel my surgery was a complete success, I still can't believe this is me!! Thank you!" F.R.
"I highly recommend Dr. Cooper. She is a great Doctor who is also very personable and attentive to her patients. She has a wonderful and helpful staff. Her office is a very comfortable and home like atmosphere. I have sent my Mother and my Aunt to her also. They are now patients and love her too." E.A.
"From the moment you walk into the waiting room you know this is like no other doctor visit. The staff is friendly, and kind, answering all questions without hesitation. Dr. Cooper's professionalism and sincerity when going over procedure options is unprecedented. I was allowed to ask questions and get answers. Because I have an extensive surgical history due to cancer as a teenager I had some concerns about having trouble with my implants in the future. Dr. Cooper researched my case and we both agreed I was at no additional risk. I also like that Dr. Cooper had a clear understanding of the look I wanted to achieve and did not encourage me to go any larger than what I wanted. I recommend her to anyone who asks, and compliment her on her staff of professionals." S.A.
"I found Dr. Cooper and her staff both professional and caring. Dr. Cooper is truly an artist at her work. Very happy with natural looking results." B.W.
"I had a wonderful experience through my surgeries. I am a stay home mom and loved to work out at the gym, however as much as I would work out I could never get my stomach flat. My stomach muscles were torn from having three children. One day I was speaking with my neighbor and she had recommended Dr. Cooper, she had used her in the past and she loved her work. After talking it over with my husband I decided to go for a consultation and I new after that first visit that there was hope for my body. At my first visit I was ready to have the works done, but the one thing that I love about Dr. Cooper is that she is looking out for what is best for you and NOT HOW MUCH MONEY SHE CAN MAKE! So my first surgery I had a tummy tuck, and loved it. After having my tummy tuck I felt so much better about myself, you see it was never about what other people had thought it was how I felt about myself and all of my hard work at the gym. Seeing a big change in me, my best friend went and had a tummy tuck. She also had a great experience with her surgery! Even thought my stomach was my biggest problem, I also had trouble with my breast. I have always been a 38 c-d, but since I had children they were hanging to my toes! Still working out and my stomach looking great I am having to wear 2 to 3 sports bra's to keep me from having two black eyes. So I decided to go see Dr. Cooper. If I was going to have them done I wanted them to be perfect. Being I was already big, I had a reduction, a lift, then implants. (NOW I AM PERFECT). Dr. Cooper is very smart, caring and a beautiful woman (inside and outside). She listens to you as a person and does not see you as an experiment project. I have put all my trust in her several times and I have been very happy with my results. After having my tummy tuck and my breast redone my husband and I are very pleased on Dr. Cooper and her staff on making the both of us feel very happy. I tell people all the time, having surgery was the best thing I ever did! I still work out every day just because I love to eat!! Having a tummy tuck made my stomach perfect but like everything else you still have to maintain and work at it. My breasts are wonderful!! Never thought that I would still be a 38 c-d and wear a top with out a bra and feel good about myself. The bottom line is that when you decide to have a surgery you need to do it for yourself and make sure you have a great doctor!!! In my eyes Dr. Cooper is a GREAT DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" N.I.
"I consulted with several cosmetic surgeons before I found Dr. Cooper. Once meeting with Dr. Cooper and her staff I knew I didn't need to look any further. Dr. Cooper was very considerate and informative. My surgery went great. I couldn’t have asked for better results. If I consider cosmetic surgery in the future Dr. Cooper will definitely be my choice." K.L.
"I have had three procedures with Dr. Cooper and absolutely love the results. Dr. Cooper truly cares about you as a person, she is extremely professional I would recommend her to anyone looking for a life change." T.C.
"For many years I pondered the idea of breast augmentation but always talked myself out of it over and over again. I was so scared that I would regret it or feel like it would be a mistake, but the only mistake was that I didn't get it done sooner. It really has changed my life. It really has boosted my confidence level, enhanced my self-esteem, and made me feel more feminine than ever. Shopping for clothes, especially swimwear is actually fun now. I couldn't be more satisfied with my results. I love Dr. Cooper and her staff, they are the best!!!" T.H.
"Dr. Cooper's office has been most professional, considerate and private. It exuberates a Spa-like, Aesthetic demeanor unlike the Traditional Office Setting Dr. Cooper's attention to the Patient, and their Overall Goals she takes into consideration. She really listens, but at the same time offers her expert opinion! A nice experience!" M.L.
"After searching for several months for the right surgeon, I found Dr. Cooper. From the moment I met her and her staff, I knew I had made the right decision. Dr. Cooper walked me through each step, before and after surgery. After talking to several other women who have had the same surgery, I soon realized just how great of a job Dr. Cooper did. During an appointment with my gynecologist, about four months after surgery, she praised Dr. Cooper's work. For any future cosmetic needs, I will chose to Dr. Cooper." G.O.
"When I went to Dr Cooper, I was very nervous and afraid. I mean elective surgery is a big step. Not only did she make me feel at ease, I felt she was sincere. She didn't make me feel as thought I really needed the surgery. If anything, I walked out of there with more self confidence and that was before I actually had the surgery. She was there for me every step of the way, before and after. I have received so many compliments from the work she did. I have and will continue to recommend her to everyone." V.I.
"My personality is not the type to do something so extravagant for myself, my giving is always for my family. With that being said, the results of my breast enhancement surgery were a tremendous surge in my self esteem. Even though my husband never said a negative word about my breasts, I always felt insecure during intimacy. My results have revived me in a way I did not think possible. My experience with Dr. Cooper and her staff was fantastic, and I have already recommended her to two of my friends, one has already had her surgery, and loves her results." L.E.
"After my surgery, follow-up visits at Dr. Cooper's office were pleasant and always very professional. Her staff took time to make me feel comfortable and relaxed at each appointment. Any problem I thought I might have was quickly attended to medically or emotionally. What I was most impressed with was Dr. Cooper's attention to every detail concerning MY surgery, also she called me personally to see how I was doing the day after my surgery. Thank you, Dr. Cooper!" D.A.
"Can I start by saying that I am a very satisfied patient? I went in to speak to Dr Cooper after seeing the results of my daughter' surgery. I went to Dr. Cooper's office for an initial consultation and found her staff very friendly and very helpful. Dr. Cooper spent time with me and answered all my questions and even asked some of her own that I would not have thought of and helped me make the final decision for the type of surgery I was looking for. She gave me the pro's and con's and directed me to search the web and do research on my own before deciding. I am glad I made the decision that I did and found Dr. Cooper and her staff more than helpful before, during and after my surgery. I have recently had my first mammogram after having the breast augmentation done and the technician could not believe I had implants. She said as a professional she had seen many but that the doctor who had done mine did a remarkable job. I am now 51 & about 16 months post op and loving it." P.S.
"Michele Cooper, MD and her staff were exceptionally helpful and receptive. My experience was wonderful. Michele and her staff were easy to communicate with and always available which gave me the comfort and confidence I needed to make decisions." W.E.
"I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Cooper! I would highly recommend her to everyone!! When I had an issue she was very quick to respond and correct that issue! She is very one on one and treats you like a person and not just another patient! I told her what I was looking for, she told me what I needed and my procedure came out perfect! I am very satisfied with my results! Thank you Dr. Cooper." S.O.
"My whole experience with Dr. Cooper, from the consultation to the weeks of follow up after surgery, was pleasant and stress free! Dr. Cooper and her staff were very informative, efficient and caring! I would certainly recommend Dr. Cooper and her staff to anyone who may be considering cosmetic surgery!" E.H.
"I Love my Breasts! " I am so happy and I feel great! They make me feel so young when I look down at them - 🙂
Dear Dr. Schwartz, Just a little note to say "Thank you" so very much for all the incredible care you have given me. Words cannot even begin to express my deep gratitude. You have gone over and beyond the call of duty and it will soon "not" be forgotten. Thank you for coming to my hotel to take care of my drains. It really meant a lot to my husband and I (more than you know). Thank you for the darling Bella Fiore Rhinestone Frame! Really looking forward to placing a "HOT" shot photo in there... you're the Best!
Dr. Schwartz, You are a truly gifted and amazing surgeon. You not only worked wonderful on my outside appearance but also managed to bring back my self confidence! You have an amazing staff that made my whole experience a pleasant one. Happy Holidays & Many Thanks!
Dear Dr. Schwartz, I absolutely "love" my new face. Your kindness & skill is beyond! Thank you for encouraging me to stop smoking. I am officially 1 week shy of 4 months smoke-free. All because of you! You are the best! I love my new face!! Sincerely K
To the greatest Dr. in the world! How could I ever thank you? Very Sincerely
Dear Dr. Schwartz, I would like to thank you and your staff again for a wonderful experience. You came highly recommended and now I know why. Now I will be the one recommending you to others. I am sure my surgery was not the easiest you have had to perform since it was an implant exchange for 22 year old silicone implants which had probably ruptured at least 10 years ago on both sides, then suffered capsular contracture. I expected the worse, but when I awake after surgery, I could hardly tell it had been done. Two small pieces of transparent tape at the point of incision - No beleeing, no real bandages, no drainage tubes. At the same time, I had some fat grafts done with came out fantastic as well. I now look 100% better. I love the shape of my lips, you erased years from my face, and my stomach is flat for the first time in my life at the age of 54. I consider myself very fortunate and will definitely be back should the need arise in the future. Sincerely
Dr. Schwartz, Thank you for the wonderful new figure you've given me! I am thrilled with the results! You have made this a "great" experience and I will recommend you to everyone I know. Your staff is incredible; me and my husband were really impressed with the service, your nurses & staff and of course "you"! Thank you...
Dear Dr. Schwartz - Just wanted to let you know how thrilled I am with my surgery results. It's been 4 weeks since my surgery and the changes are dramatic! You are truly a "Miracle Worker!" I'll be back into my jeans in no time! Thanks again for your wonderful care & concern - Bernice is amazing too.
Thanks for saving my nose.
Here is a small Thank you for my new body. For the first time in 18 years I feel good about myself. I can say now I fee like a nice piece of pottery - instead of a lump of clay. Enjoy.
Dr. Michael Schwartz and Staff, We wanted to thank you for making us feel so safe and comfortable, and for giving us beautiful breasts! We are very happy and plan to send many people your way!
Dear Dr. Schwartz, I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for the care you've given me. Your skill, expertise & support are truly appreciated. Thank you, Again!
Dear Dr. Schwartz, I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for the care you've given me. Your skill, expertise & support are truly appreciated. Thank you, Again!
Dear Dr. Schwartz, On behalf of my husband and myself, I wanted to take a minute to thank you for making my surgery a positive experience. It has been comforting to have such a highly skilled and competent surgeon. Your artistic talent becomes mere evident everyday as I continue to heal. You have truly found your genius and calling in life. Please extend my appreciation to your wife for the beautiful picture frame. The frame goes perfectly with our Tuscan Decor. Once again, Thank you for being the best surgeon I could have hoped for.
Dear Dr. Schwartz, Thank you so much for everything. You're my new favorite doctor. You and your staff are always so kind and your work is outstanding. You will always be highly recommended. Please feel free to have any new patients call me regarding your work. I'm absolutely thrilled with the outcome. Thank you so much! Sincerely, Your patient for life!
"Dear Dr. Marschall, Once again, I want to thank you for everything you have done for me. Your kindness is greatly appreciated." R.D.
"Really can't thank you enough for all you have done for me over the past years. I certainly admire your work...it's "magic". But...most of all, thank you for getting me through the mastectomy. Your patience, reassurance and kindness are greatly appreciated. The bonus is...the results are great. Thanks again."
"Dear Dr. Marschall, Thank you SO very much for the excellent care you provided to me before, during, and continually since the surgery. I am a high maintenance client with high expectations and higher standards. Dr. Marschall, you and your team exceed everything. After the surgery, while speaking with the CDH nurses about the length of the procedures, I felt good hearing them say that it was not that unusual for you to go over your estimated time due to your attention to detail and desire to try to make everything perfect. I really appreciate your skills, knowledge, compassion, honesty, patience, and time. Visit after visit you always take the time to answer my pages of questions. Laura even welcomes me to call with questions and concerns between visits and is always helpful and wonderful when I call time and time again. The more questions I ask and have answered, the more questions come up. In addition to Laura's outstanding care, her attention to my privacy and to all of my quirks is exemplary. Oh, and, speaking of quirks, thank you for letting me see the removed arm skin and tissue in the recovery room. As you both have learned about me, in trying to be a compliant client, I need concrete direction, rules, and do's and don'ts. I hope I haven't made you and Laura dread my appointments. I also can't say enough positive things about Emily. It is a pleasure talking with her at each visit. I ask her a whole other set of questions. She always takes the time to answer my questions, show me various products, explain their use, and give me samples. I also more than appreciate Sue's expertise and knowledge. She also takes the time to answer my questions. Her attention to detail in the care she provides is great. Morgan is also helpful, caring, and a pleasure both on the phone and in person. I could go on and on thanking you and your incredible team for my care. I am sorry for rambling on, but I cannot find the right words to express the enormity of my ongoing thanks. Thank you So very much. With Warmest Regards and Best Wishes for a Happy, Healthy New Year, " B.J.
"Once again, I just wanted to you know how pleased I am with the work you did on my eyes and my breasts! I love my new "wide eyed" look with which to see my "larger than life" bossom. I am just thrilled! You are so talented! Michael I feel very lucky to have found you. You spent endless hours with me and I deeply appreciate it. I'm sure we will be seeing a lot of each other over he years." A.
"I wish to express my sincere thanks to you for the fine and competent care you took of me before and after my surgery. I feel a great weight has been lifted off my chest - literally! My husband and I are both very pleased with the results." K.O.
"I want to sincerely express my thanks to Dr. Eisemann and his entire staff. Being a male, I had your typical abdominal and love handle (flanks) issues at 40. My biggest fears in doing liposuction in these areas was loose skin, pain and overall results. My consultation was honest and straight forward. I've learned that nobody is going to necessarily talk you into it and that you have to do it for 'you' and be realistic in your expectations. I can honestly say that I am thrilled with my decision to do the procedure and that the results have exceeded my expectations and given me the boost and motivation I was looking for to continue and improve upon a healthy lifestyle with diet and exercise. I want to thank Dr. Eisemann and his staff again for being honest, upfront and compassionate. Make a small sacrifice and follow your simple pre-op and post-op instructions is my advice. I couldn't possibly offer a higher recommendation to anyone who experiences the same reservations that I did. Keep in mind you are doing this for you and how you feel. Not necessarily to 'fix' anything." J.M.
"I became aware of my profile at an early age due to comments made by others. These comments only heightened my awareness to my profile and the way I saw myself. I did not like to have pictures taken and was very critical of the way I looked in pictures. Dr. Eisemann has completed multiple procedures on me. The first procedure was a nose reduction and chin surgery. One simple word summarizes the results..."wow." I have had so many compliments on my profile. On one occasion someone actually told me "you have the most beautiful profile." That made me smile from ear to ear. I am no longer apprehensive about photographs being taken of me and I am so much more confident when I walk into the room. The second procedure I had completed by Dr. Eisemann was a breast lift and augmentation. I had already had two surgeries prior to this all before the age of 25. Losing weight was a great thing, but it was not too great to my breasts. I had some difficulties with the results of these surgeries and I knew that I needed to have the surgery completed for a third time. As you can imagine I was very nervous and scared about being able to "trust" a doctor. Dr. Eisemann and his staff made me feel so comfortable and took the time out to answer my questions and address any concerns that I had. I am so pleased with the results of the breast lift and augmentation. When I saw them I think I said, "I didn't think that my breasts could look like this." My breasts are now full, aesthetically pleasing, perky, and very soft. Dr. Eisemann is an amazing doctor. I no longer question trusting a doctor because I have found him." S.I.
"I am happy to say that I am very pleased with the results of my face lift and upper blepharaplasty. My goal was to improve the appearance of my facial skin and lessen the appearance of scarring from acne. I feel Dr. Eisemann did a wonderful job in accomplishing both of these goals for me. I had previosuly had two other procedures done by different doctors to lesson the appearance of my acne scars and had very poor results. Dr. Eisemann, however, was able to use his skill and expertise to give me not only a younger looking face, but one with less noticeable scarring. I am very grateful to him for this. Consequently, I am recommending Dr. Eisemann to any of my friends who are considering any type of plastic surgery. Also, I would like to thank everyone in the office for their friendly and helpful attitude and their patience for all the many times I called with questions." L.E.
"I was referred to Dr. Eisemann by an OB/GYN in the Houston area. When she found out I was considering breast augmentation, she informed me that through years of patient consultation, she had found that Doctor Eisemann had done the best work and established the best reputation with former patients. I choose Dr. Eismann to perform Breast Augmentation / lift in June of 1997, I have been very pleased with the results and care I have received from Dr. Eisemann and his staff. I have referred several friends and family members who have been equally pleased with their results. If or when I decide to have any other cosmetic procedures performed, Dr Eisemann and his friendly staff would be my only choice." J.J.
"When I was younger I used to wonder why women felt like they needed breast enhancement. Why couldn't they be happy with the way they looked? Then I had children, passed thirty and it seems like all of a sudden I noticed my breasts starting to sag. In looking back, I can recall that all of the women in my family had sagging breasts and heredity was also a factor. After I turned thirty-five it seemed each day my breasts would sag more and more. I decided it was time to do something about it. I was tired of having to pay a fortune for an ugly bra that would lift and minimize, not to mention having to adjust my breasts all the time. After speaking with lots of women and doing tons of research on breast augmentation, Dr. Eisemann's name kept coming up as the best in his field. I made the appointment and was greeted by a friendly, knowledgeable and professional staff who answered all of my questions and even assisted me with financing possibilities. I was also accurately informed on what to expect following the surgery. When I made the decision to go ahead with the surgery, Dr. Eisemann's office scheduled it right away. Dr. Eisemann and his staff genuinely care for their patients. My self esteem has greatly improved and I look great in my clothes. No more ugly bras! (I don't even have to wear one now if I don't want to.) I am pleased with the results and my husband says I now have the body I had when I was in my twenty's. Thank you Dr. Eisemann for making me look great and feel better about myself I would do it all over again and often wonder why I waited so long." D.C.
"By going to Dr. Eisemann, I was able to achieve the exact size I wanted with a look and feel that is so natural. If I had to do the procedure over again, I would definitely chose Dr. Eisemann. Several of my friends that saw me before and after were so amazed at the results, it made them decide to get breast augmentation by Dr. Eisemann. When having cosmetic surgery, the doctor's skill and experience is everything! I found that with Dr. Eisemann." T.B.
"Dear Dr. Pecoraro, Knowing your busy schedule I want to thank you very much for taking the time to help me with my problem. Your kindness and helpfulness is greatly appreciated." B.L.
"Dr C, You are a true artist & I am grateful that my instincts were right about you. Thank you for giving me my life back to where I am now able to be confident in myself around family and friends. Much Appreciated!" C.S.
"Just a quick note to say thank you to the Bella Cosmetic staff, you guys are truly wonderful and Dr Chiaramonte is the best! I would love to be placed on your reference list if you have one available. Good service is hard to find, but when I find it, I promote & recommend it to anyone with the same interest. You all were wonderful from the first time I first walked in the door, during and after my procedure. Your post operation follow-ups let me know that the Bella Cosmetic Team really care about their patients. The procedure went extremely well and I am healing a lot faster than expected. I know I am going to look great because Dr Chiaramonte is a true professional who ensures that patients receive the nest possible results. The Bella Cosmetic Team is definitely one for others to emulate! Dr Chiaramonte & The Bella Cosmetic Team is MY choice for any future cosmetic services. I thank God for sending me in his direction. Take Care!" D.D.
"Dear Dr. Chiaramonte, I am living a healthy and happy life all thanks to you. I can't emphasize enough how happy I feel about the result from the operation. I really appreciate you and your staffs' kindness & professional attitudes. I was able to trust and relax throughout the entire process. I feel so lucky that you're my doctor. I will never forget your warm heart, kindness and professionalism. Thanks to you & all your staff! I continue to hope for the best for you!" K.D.
"Bella Cosmetic Staff & Dr. Michael F. Chiaramonte, I cannot say enough on how happy I am with my results from my surgery, you and your staff are amazing & the care I received was first class. I thank you so much for the flowers, the care & the time that each of you gave to me. My life has changed and I am very thankful for all that each of you have done. Bless each of you & many thanks!" T.Y.
"Hello All, Just in the neighborhood & I wanted to say HI! Hope all is well. Dr. C, you are still my favorite man right after God & my husband. Take Care, one of your favorite patients." B.J.
"Dr. Chiaramonte, Just because of you, my stats: Initial Size: 18-20 Present: 14 Initial Weight: 205 Present: 182 Initial Hips: 49 1/4 Present: 43 Initial Waist: 38 Present: 31 1/2 Initial Thighs: 29 Present: 24 3/4 and I am still loosing weight! Thank You." S.H.
"Dr. Chiaramonte & Staff, I wanted to thank you so very much for your outstanding work & support. I feel like ME AGAIN, all thanks to YOU! Thank you also for the beautiful flowers, that was very thoughtful!" W.F.
"Doctor Chiaramonte, You have exceeded my expectations, aside from being highly recommended and skilled as a surgeon, you are also a very empathetic & caring human being. I have been a loyal patient for the past 5 years & I will continue to choose you for all my future cosmetic needs. Thanks so much!" N.
"Dear Dr. Chiaramonte & Everyone at Bella Cosmetic, Thank you so much for the beautiful flowers & all you have done to make me so happy with my new look! You are all WONDERFUL." J.A.
"Dr. Chiaramonte & Staff, Thank you for taking such good care of my mommy." J.B., C.B & P.B.
"I am very happy with everybody and everything involved in this experience. Thank you very much for taking such great care of me." M.P.
"I was so pleased with everyone and everything!! Thank you!"
"Dr. Decherd, Thank you for changing my world in a way that is more dramatically wonderful that you could know. I know this is just the beginning, but I am so grateful God led me to you & look forward to getting everything to come with confidence in you! Thank you "so, so, so, so" much! You are awesome! "
"Dearest Dr. Decherd, I wanted to thank you and your staff for the wonderful support I received there the last several months. I have to say I am thrilled with the results. I know you truly go out of your way and do all you can to make your patients feel very comfortable about the procedure they are having done. God Bless you for the work you do. Again, thanks so much. You are all the best. Big Hug!"
"Dr. Decherd, Rosemary & Caroline, Just wanted to say thanks for everything. I really appreciate you spending so much time with me. Your bright smiles, and your caring manner. You guys are the best! Ps. My breasts look "beautiful" thanks to you!!!"
"Happy Birthday to my Boobs! Thank you for being there! It meant more than you know!"
"I absolutely loved the entire staff. They made me feel special and not just like ‘another patient.’ Dr. Ciaravino was great, very professional and is very talented. I told him what my goals were and he worked his magic! My recovery was a breeze! I was up and around later in the day after my surgery and only took pain pills for two days following surgery. Absolutely best decision I could have made!" K.
"Dr. Ciaravino, I just wanted to let you know that my experience with your staff has been exceptional. Both your office staff and surgical staff were not only professional but friendly and reassuring. As a nurse and one in a similar setting, I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable I felt. Thank you." L.
"I felt truly welcomed by you and your staff and was put at ease from my very first visit. I was never rushed or pressured, only reassured by your empathic nature and concern…You are an exceptional surgeon and a kind and compassionate human being. I could not give you a high enough recommendation!" T.
"The staff at his office was wonderful. I was very nervous going in and after my first visit I felt very confident. I just can’t say enough about everybody at your office, every person that I came in contact with made me feel like I was part of the Ciaravino family. For that I thank you!" S.
"I have always been a bit apprehensive about having breast augmentation. Although I wanted one, I had a fear that they would turn out too big and look unnatural. Dr. Ciaravino listened to my concerns and truly did a beautiful job. He is truly an artist with his ability and truly did a beautiful job." J.
"Everyone greeted me with a smile and was extremely helpful. The entire staff really seemed to love what they do. I am very thankful to Dr. Ciaravino and his staff for all of the TLC and also the staff at the surgery center who were equally fabulous! Thank you, I will continue to refer people to Ciaravino." A.G.
"I cannot say enough wonderful things about every single person I encountered at this office. You are all thorough, kind, conscientious, and beautiful inside and out!" D.D.
"I am extremely happy with the entire experience, staff accommodations, Dr. and anesthesiologist, and overall outcome of my procedure. I would/will highly recommend your practice to all friends and family. Thank you, Dr. C and staff!" L.W.
"Dr. C, you and your staff are great!! You all made the whole process practically painless. I am very impressed with the results…You are so professional and at the same time so compassionate and caring, another happy patient!!" D.
"Dr. Ciaravino performed my breast augmentation. The thing I liked most about him was his manner. He made me feel so at ease. He took time to fully explain everything to me. His office coordinator was so helpful and informative. The entire staff was great. Everything about my breast augmentation was positive. I had minimal swelling, no bruising, and a very quick recovery. My incisions (crease) are barely noticeable. My breasts are absolutely beautiful, and very natural looking. I would definitely recommend Dr. Ciaravino to anyone that needs a plastic surgeon." C.P.
"Dear Dr. Ciaravino, Words cannot express my gratitude for the perfect breast surgery you performed. I knew that you were an extra-special and gifted surgeon, however my result is truly beautiful and nearly close to perfection! I am so happy. I feel so good about my new look. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. P.S. Your entire office is a "class act." They made a big surgery so simple." J.J.
"Dr. Ciaravino, I can't tell you how grateful I am to you and your first-class staff. My wife is feeling great, and looks that way also. Thank you for the kindness you all showed us. Again many thanks." M.I.
"Dr. Ciaravino, I was just writing to let you know how much I appreciate what you have done for me! Getting implants was one of the best things I've ever done for myself! I have such a higher level of self-confidence now, I feel like people have a higher level of respect for me, but most of all I feel more beautiful and feminine. Every day I get so many compliments. You really have done an incredible job. I healed pretty quickly from the surgery with minimal pain. I think I was up and going within a few days actually. Not to mention, shopping is definitely a LOT more fun! Thank you for making me feel comfortable and excited all along the way! I really appreciate all you have done." M.Y.
"Dr. Ciaravino, I just wanted to write to tell you that you performed a Breast Augmentation for me approximately five years ago. I've since successfully nursed two children and my breasts still look terrific. In that period of time, I had several OB/GYN's ( in California and Texas), all of whom have said that my Breast Augmentation is the best they've seen. Thank you for giving me a proportional body- one that I am very happy with. You do such lovely work. Best wishes to you and your staff." J.R.
"First of all, I would like you to know that you have the most wonderful staff. I would also like to thank you for caring so much about your patients even while you’re on vacation. Thanks again for the personal touch you give your patients."
"Thank you so much for your dedicated, professional care and support during my recent surgeries to restore my body after a mastectomy. The cosmetic result is outstanding! Your surgical skills have brought me a long way from that numbing day when I first heard "I am sorry, but you have cancer.” I am grateful that there are professionals and administrative staff like those in your office who are selfless and generous in providing patient care."
"Thank you for your patience and delicate care. I am extremely grateful and very glad that you are my doctor."
"I want to thank you, Dr. Cohen. You are an artist! When you are diagnosed with cancer, your defenses go. It’s so important to have a sensitive and conscientious doctor. You were perfect!"
"A very good friend of mine used Dr. Cohen. Everything she told me about him and his staff was A++. Dr. Cohen couldn’t have done a better job if he tried. He is the best thing that ever happened to me. What he has done has affected my life for the better. My outlook is 100% different now. My surgery was the best decision I ever made. Dr. Cohen is absolutely the best!"
"Thank you so much for such wonderful results with my surgery. Perfect!!!"
"Dr. Cohen is the best!"
"I just wanted to thank you for all you did for my brother. I’ve never heard him so happy as he was after he left your office. I felt very confident in recommending you to him, and I’m glad I did. Your professionalism and fine skills are really outstanding and I just wanted to thank you for doing such a good job."
"Thank you so much for my "new enhancement.” I’m absolutely thrilled. Choosing a surgeon was a major decision. I’m glad I chose you."
"Dr. Edwards & Staff, What can I say to express how appreciative I am to all of you? The kind, caring assistance from all of you made my surgery experience the best it could be. And my results? I couldn't be happier! Dr. Edwards - you are the best! I'm not in sizes I haven't been in since my 20's! It's a great feeling! Thanks for everything - you're the best!"
"How do you thank someone who cares so much about people he does not know. You change peoples lives for the better. May God continue to bless you. Thank you very, very much. I really appreciate what both of you have done for me. "
"Dear Dr. Edwards, Words couldn't even begin to tell you how happy I am with my results. not only did you listen to what I wanted but with your skill and advice the results far exceeded my expectations. not only that but you have the best staff; they were all so warm and caring, especially Denise. They made a huge difference in my care and you should give them all a big fat pat on the back! I also want to thank you for the flowers the office sent to me, when I was feeling a little green. I would recommend you and your staff to anyone thinking about having surgery! Thank you once again! P.S. Loved Dr. Boman!"
"Dr. Michael & Kathy, Thank you both so much for the time you spent with me during my consultation. Much appreciated for what is a significant decision. I will take your respected advice - and do nothing for now! Thanks again!"
"Dr. Edwards, Words cannot express my gratitude with such care, and integrity; with the work you stand by, and your enthusiasm and support to me, and to be the most informed patient I could be - thank you for it all! And God Bless your staff! They cared for me with such tenderness and gave me all the time I needed to make the decision that took 20 years for me to finally decide! YEAH! Thank you guys for it all!"
"Dear Dr. Edwards, Kathy, Denise and Kelly, I just wanted to extend my sincerest appreciate for the excellent care and utmost professionalism you all extended to me. The flowers were a very nice touch... and they smelled wonderful. Thank you so much for "squeezing me in" on such short notice and the discount was also noted and appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend your staff and services to anyone. If I need your expertise in the future, rest assure I will call you as I am extremely pleased with my results."
"Dr. Edwards and Staff, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the time you took with me and my husband to educate and explain everything so we could comfortably make a decision knowing the facts - I have never had a doctor and his staff spend so much time with me and I want you to know that really sets you apart! "Please" know that when I'm ready to make it happen and the timing is right, I "will" be seeking you out as my physician - you can have every confidence in that."
"Dr. and Mrs. Edwards, Thank you so much for taking such good care of us. your time and care means the world to us. We are so grateful."
"Dr. Edwards & Staff, Thanks for the new me! You're an artist! Hooters will hire me in a second now. Ha ha!"
"Dr. Edwards: There are no words enough to thank you for all that you have done for me. You have changed my life entirely and that makes you a very special human being. I'm much more focused on my kids and the real values and ideals in my life and that rubs on them. I believe in "pay it forward" and I would like to let you know that I will do for someone the same greatness as a payment to you. Thank you." P.P.
"What a wonderful experience! Thanks so much!" S.
"Dr. Edwards, I cannot Thank you enough for your beautiful work and my new found confidence. Just let me know when you want tickets! Your help made all the difference."
"Dear Dr. Edwards and Staff, My family and I would like to send our tanks for this wonderful and comforting experience. It's so nice to see Aloha outside of the islands. You and your staff have been extremely AMAZING!!! We really appreciate everything! Aloha!!!"
"Dear Doc & Cathy, Thank you so very much for the wonderful work you did on my breast implants & for doing a job no other surgeon in Las Vegas would do. I guess the fact that it took extra precautions and had to be performed at a hospital turned most Doctors off. I thank God there are doctors like you who really care about people. Cathy - Thank you for all the red tape you sifted through to get my insurance to pay what they were suppose to and for all the help! I think so highly of you both! P.S. My lips look beautiful! See ya in about a year!"
"Doctor Edwards & Staff - You all are the best! Thank you so much for your kindness! I love my new look you did an awesome job!"
"Dr. Edwards, Just wanted to say Thank you for my new look. You've made me a very happy woman and have given me the confidence back that I needed. Also - A big Thank you to Kathy, Jackie, Denise and Kelly. They are truly wonderful :)" E.
"Thanks a Latte'!! Dr. Edwards, Thank you so much for your excellence! Your staff is so amazing and so are you! I appreciate how you have cared for me and are genuinely concerned for my well being. I will refer many."
"Six weeks ago, I had a surgery for a breast lift reduction on one side and breast implants. I couldn't be happier with my results. I am more confident than ever and I can wear the tops I have always wanted. Dr. Michael Horn and his staff are truly wonderful. For my consultation to my post op, I have received the best advice, help and most of all compassion. I would highly recommend Dr. Horn to anyone in need of plastic surgery. Thank you for everything!" T.F.
"My experience was absolutely phenomenal much better than I anticipated. The entire staff was extremely welcoming, comforting and knowledgeable. I was always greeted with a warm smile from everyone. The results are impeccable and I could not be happier!" J.B.
"To Dr. Horn: Your talent and brilliance was apparent during our first meeting and I came into surgery with more confidence than I ever felt in my life. Your natural gift for artistry and years of experience is obvious in the astounding results of my breast augmentation procedure. You took the one thing on my body that I did not like and turned it into the most beautiful part of my physical appearance. I could not be happier and more thankful to have you as my surgeon. You are talented, caring and intelligent. Thank you Dr. Horn!" B.R.
"For years I have felt very insecure about my nose and my chest size. Once I turned 18, I decided to look into having surgery. Dr. Horn was actually the second doctor I looked into. Once I walked into the office, I knew that this was the right place for me. One of the things that stuck out to me was the music that played in the rooms. It wasn't the usual soothing and instrumental music played in doctor's offices. It was just normal music that comforted me. For all my pre+post op, I felt very welcome and comforted. Everyone here is so nice and I am glad I chose Dr. Horn as my surgeon. I felt great after a week, and now that 6 weeks have passed I feel amazing! Thank you Dr. Horn and staff!!" S.P.
"My experience with Dr. Horn and his staff was wonderful. I had no idea how easy breast augmentation surgery would be. The staffs made me feel very comfortable and answered my MANY questions. I love my new breasts and couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you so much. I would refer anyone and everyone to Dr. Horn. If I need anything done in the future it will be here!" J.H.
"Since the moment I walked into Dr. Horn's office I felt very comfortable. Everyone was extremely nice and very accommodating. When I had my consultation with Dr. Horn, I told him what I wanted and how I wanted to look after surgery. He listened very intently and then explained in detail the procedure and everything I should expect. He also gave me his expert opinion. Surgery day went very smoothly. I was in and out. I was made to feel very comfortable. Overall, I really had a great experience and felt extremely safe and comfortable with Dr. Horn and all of his staff in his office. I would definitely recommend him to others." E.R.
"Overall, I am extremely pleased with my experience. My breast augmentation procedure went very well. I can safely say that it was the best money I have ever spent. My breasts look and feel natural and my confidence has grown as a result. Dr Horn staff was absolutely wonderful. They made me comfortable and helped me feel at ease." S.M.
"I was unquestionably nervous when taking on the task of locating a surgeon for my breast augmentation. For years I have wanted the procedure completed, but had always allowed fear to override my decision. Finding Dr. Horn and his staff was a gift. I received the results I wanted with a stress free environment. Dr.Horn's nurse is knowledgeable and always accessible. Dr. Horn is caring and highly skilled. This experience has been great and I would make the same decision all over again. Thank you." S.C.
"I had a rhino/septoplasty procedure and it was a great experience. For anyone that has always wanted to have their nose done and is too scared I would highly recommend it. The overall experience was not scary at all and the down time was minimal. I am very happy with everything and now my confidence has built up." S.M.
"Undergoing breast augmentation by Dr. Horn went much more smoothly than I thought it would be. The staff and Michael Horn did their best to help me make the right decision. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and am pleased with my results!" B.S.
"Dr. Horn and his staff are excellent! The care I received here was the best; his staff is very knowledgeable, polite and caring. They are willing to answer any questions I had and I never felt rushed. Dr. Horn made me feel at ease and very comfortable. My husband and I did a lot of research before deciding to come here and we are glad we did. I would recommend Dr. Horn's office to anyone and everyone." L.K.
"It is hard to find such good and caring Surgeons." B.F.
"Fantastic, the best. I had the total body lift and I look like a 20 year old now.it came out perfectly symetrical.My butt, tummy, back and thighs are like I was never obese. The pricing was reasonable (very). This is not just a guy that does plastic surgery, he is a God. He is compassionate, patient, skilled beyond belief, and wouldn't you know he is cute and charming too. I refuse to ever go any where else. He is the best. He is definitely a hero." S.C.
"I just wanted to thank you for doing a wonderful job. I had my breasts done in October 2000 and accidentally got pregnant not too long afterwards and they still look awesome. Nicole and I are really happy with your work and tell everyone who is thinking of having the procedure done to go to your office." R.K.
"Dr. Elliot changed my outlook on life by performing an Arm Lift. "Now" I'm excited about summer and short sleeves!" K.P.
Dear Dr. Thornton, Thank you for making it possible for me to get my ears fixed. This is something I've always wanted done since I was six years old. I cannot explain how much this means to me. Thank you again! M.T.
Dr. Lee, Thanks to your remarkable skill and God's healing, new nose is fine - looks fine and is getting better! I wanted to let you know that I appreciate you. Thank you very much and I hope you, your staff & family have a very Merry Christmas! The pottery is for your wife. I cannot make a round bowl, so I try to make interesting pottery. Thanks again. B.T.
"Dr. Gallas! Thanks for my new boobs! They're great! I appreciate your time and effort." M.
"Dear Dr. Gallas, Hopefully you have received your package with the hand-painted porcelain bowl. You may take it home to your wife, if she would like it, or maybe use it in your office. I chose to paint the "forget me not" flower because I don't want you to forget us. As we have told you on numerous occasions, you are so special to us and we will never forget you and all you did for me and us. We wish you, your family love and happiness. God Bless you." R. & M.
"Dr. Gallas, you have been a special part of our lives for the past 2 years. We value your professional contribution and appreciate your friendship. You've been a blessing to us. With grateful hearts." R. and M.L.
"Dear Dr. Gallas & Staff, What a delightful surprise to get flowers from you this morning! They truly brightened my day and lightened my heart. I don't know anyone who can say they received flowers from their doctor! As I've stated many time, I do honestly believe God placed me in your care. For that, I've not only received excellent care, but also lasting friendships. Thank you and God Bless you." B.A.
"Dear Dr. Gallas, Thank you so much for your time and for not dismissing my concerns. I really felt like you heard me and I appreciate that. you are so sweet and kind. I remembered that you were but I think you are even more sweeter now. I look forward to hearing from you."
"Dr. Gallas, I just wanted to send a quick note of thanks for doing my breast reduction. I saw the insurance payout, and realize now just how badly they treat the surgeon. Even though you don't get any financial reimbursement, I'm glad you took my case. I can now run comfortably and have the confidence to wear sleeveless shirts to school. Most importantly, when I play Dance Dance Revolution, I just around and don't fall over from centrifugal force. My confidence has gone through the roof, and my back doesn't hurt anymore. I wish I could do more, but thank you so much for doing this for me. With a world of thanks!" L.M.R.
"Dear Dr. Gallas, I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your kindness to me last week. Who every said doctors were lacking in bedside manners wasn't your patient! Again, Thanks for recognizing that pain can be emotional, rather than just physical." N.J.
"Dear. Dr. Gallas, I saw this in a bookstore and immediately thought of you. Although it's been undoubtedly one of the toughest years of my life, I am so grateful that God had a hand in bringing me to your door. I can never repay you for everything you've done for me. I just want you to know how grateful I am to you for your skill, your kindness and your friendship. Have a Merry Christmas and a joyous New Year." N.
"Summer has been great! I was by the pool for the past two weeks and never felt better. I was able to show up at the community poolside feeling great and… wearing my 2-piece swimsuit! Dr. Gallas did wonderful work in sculpting my body and now I have my self-esteem in the summer! Dr. Gallas promised a safe and effective "tummy-tuck” procedure – its true. Thanks to Dr. Gallas and his team. Have a great summer! Mine is." T.S.
"This man is a Miracle Man…" K.M.
"Dr. Lacerna, I just wanted to say thank you so much for taking care of me. I haven’t felt so good about wearing a bikini since my first child….[Childbirth] can take a toll on our bodies…my "mommy makeover” has changed my life in a good way."
"Thank you so much to all, I feel so blessed to have found all of you and look forward to working with you all in the future. Dr. Mazaheri, you are the best in your field. You and your staff made me feel like more than just another patient, but a friend as well."
"I could fill an entire page with praise for Dr. Mazaheri, Mary, Terri, and Aja! He and his entire staff at time of checkin in at Greenbaum Center to check out! Everyone could not have been more courteous, pleasant and/or informative. So far, this has been a much more positive experience than I could have imagined."
"Dr. Mazaheri and his staff were more than helpful and made me real comfortable through the entire consultation. I appreciate their honesty & their knowledge of what is best for my body and their honesty of opinion and pro's and con's of the options. Never did I feel pressured & to me that's huge in this kind of decision." Thank you!!
"It was a very pleasurable experience from the get go, up to and including post-surgery. Dr. Mazaheri's staff were both friendly and professional. I can't wait for my next surgery. You were all fantastic."
"Dr. Mazaheri's knowledge, professionalism, and bedside manner. This was my 4th augmentation and he's the only doctor willing to go under the muscle. I'm glad "saline" is no longer a concern for me."
"I was very impressed with the result of my surgery. I was afraid my breast would be too large, and not look real. I am very happy with the size and appearance."
"Dr. Mazaheri and his staff treated me with the utmost respect and answered any and all questions that I had concerns about - very professional office, yet made me feel comfortable. I would and will recommend Dr. Mazaheri to potential surgery patients."
"To Dr. Mehdi Mazaheri & Staff, I am writing this letter to express my gratitude for my experience with your office staff and my recent breast augmentation. I turned 40 this past February and have been wanting breast implants since the birth of my last childe 15 years ago. I set my dream aside and figured it would just not happen. Not only was I referred to Dr. Mazaheri by a friend of mine but I also work at a fitness club that Dr. Mazaheri and his wife are members and I have had the pleasure of getting to know them not only on a professional level but on a personal level as well. Dr. Mazaheri and his staff are not only professional but they are truly dedicated to their patients, and have exceeded any expectations I had regarding my surgery. He and his staff were always willing to answer any questions I had and took the time for the many phone calls made to his office. I never had to second guess or question any decision and had the utmost respect and trust in both Dr. Mazaheri and his staff. Thank you for your patience, care, concern and professionalism you helped my dream come true. You can guarantee I will be referring anyone who is considering breast augmentation or any type of surgery to your office and will do it with pride!"
"Stated simply, Dr. Mazaheri has given me back my life. Both surgeries were scheduled and done to meet my needs. I was educated about what could and could not be done with these procedures. I received excellent care from Dr. Mazaheri and his staff as well as the staff at Greenbaum Center. Dr. Mazaheri is not only a skilled surgeon, but an artist, one who is able to do cosmetic procedures that will produce proportioned results for the patient." Thanks for all you have done to help me regain my life. Sincerely M.D.
"Dear Dr. Mazaheri, I want to thank "you" so much for giving me a new lease on life. I am more confident than I have "ever" been. I know I'm a pain in the (you know what), but I'm worth it!" Love ya! Ps. Breast Lift ASAP B.H.
"Dearest Dr. Mazaheri, Mary, Terri, Aja, and Jennifer, Thank you all for this wonderful experience. You guys have all changed our lives in such a positive way. Everything that was promised was followed through and from day one I jus knew I was in good hands. Everyone is amazed at my recovery and Dr. Mazaheri's work. I will be referring people to you so they can experience the professionalism that I did!" Thanks Again
"Dearest Dr. Mazaheri, Terry, Debbie & Sara, There are no words to express how much your care, concern & individual attention has meant to me. Thank you for making me feel so special, and for calming all my fears & for dealing with me all throughout the times I felt like a total pest... you made it all ok! I can't even explain how much having this has changed my life. No only my body looks great after only 3 weeks, but my confidence and self image have improved dramatically! This is truly a gift thank you so much! Here's looking forward to more reconstruction. After all, it is a work in progress."
"I can't express myself enough on how much I appreciate you all! your sincerity, kindness and its all genuine! I believe that guy upstairs sent me to you. So very glad he did. Dr. M... fabulous work!! You all have entered my heart and will be there always!"
"Dr. Maxwell, I want to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding team you have amongst you. The support and professionalism exhibited by you and your staff during my surgery, on July 16, 2008. In April 2008 I met with Jody and Katie who both were wonderful and professional. The treatment I received was second to none from Christine, (I hope I got her name correct) the nurse that assisted Dr. Ramirez with my paperwork, and calming my fears on my surgery date. She was a joy and a ball of energy. Dr. Ramirez was great as well, “my guardian angel”, as he put it. Tell him I am still waiting on my pulled pork from N.C. (LOL). From the administrative team, finance committee, receptionists, to the surgical nurses, Estella over in the facial department, all demonstrated a caring attitude. This kind of treatment made the surgical experience easier to endure. I will recommend anyone that is thinking about undergoing any type of surgery to your clinic. I have learned that the cheapest clinic isn’t always the best. There were other clinics less expensive but I am glad I chose your team. Again, thanks to you and your team."
"Dear, dear, Dr. Maxwell, I knew it was time to do something when my Costco picture was looking better than I was. I also knew gravity wasn’t going to one day mysteriously change it’s directional pull lifting everything upward for those of us over 50. My dream… someday when I had the money, I would have a face lift. I began doing my homework well in advance. I started coming to your office (Maxwell Aesthetics) for facials as a testing ground to the kind of service you provided. It gave me a chance to get familiar with the office and staff. My first facial was with Estella. She was wonderful. She explained everything she was doing and why she was doing it and what I should do for “up keep”. I think she even threw in a few extra treatments for me. I had subsequent facials with Sandy. She was also wonderful and fun. I think she threw in a few extras for me too. Every member of the staff seemed professional, helpful and pleasant. ( I find those three elements a rarity in most offices these days.) I was very impressed. When I met with you, I loved the way you sat next to me on the couch and asked what I wanted to do, as well as, my concerns and fears (yes fears!). You told me what my procedure would entail and what to expect. Post OP… I can’t thank you enough for, not only the skills you possess and your embracing personality, but how you treated me before and after surgery. Having a face lift is a big deal, emotionally and physically (it’s definately not for sissies)...but I highly recommend it! Thank you to Katie and Carol for the much needed encouragement they gave me several days after the surgery when I wondered “what had I done”. Sincere thanks for my restoration!"
"I must tell you how thrilled I am with my results! Gwen is OUTSTANDING and her work is flawless! She has an amazing eye for detail, symmetry, perfection and unique caring and concern for each patient. The entire staff is Fantastic and I feel she’s the BEST IN THE COUNTRY! Get a consultation and see what the results you can have! Thanks so much for all you do!!!!"
"I have to tell you that I was cautiously optimistic that things would work out well for my tummy tuck and facelift. Now I have to pinch myself, what a marvelous caring experience I have had with my two operations, both pre-op and afterwards. I have been surrounded by an expert and caring staff anticipating my needs. I've had almost no bruising and with the vitamins and following the instructions closely for personal care, I have healed beautifully. As a tip for anyone getting a facelift, I used a pack of those 12 inch square towel cloths (one can get a dozen in a pack). I cut a hole for my nose. Then I dipped it in cool water and covered my face while I slept. It took away the tingling and kept my face moist. When I first visited Dr. Maxwell for a consultation, I was impressed with her comfortable manner and calm confidence. Then I also noticed her attention to the details of my particular face. She looked at me as an individual and understood by goal of having a natural, rested, pleasant restoration. Now that my new skin and face repair is five weeks old, I am more than thrilled with the results. It gets better everyday as the residual nerve healing continues. My daughter, who lives here in Tucson, loves her mom’s new look. My husband, who was skeptical of my adventure, is charmed. Oh yes, the tummy tuck, (well I was in pretty good shape before the operation) now I look and feel great. My stretched muscles have been restored to my youth. My stomach is flat and amazing. I love it. Dr. Gwen Maxwell is so good. Her level of skill is exceptional. The grace and calm of her offices reflect her high ideals. I think she has become part wizard. I am so lucky. Now I get ready to return to Washington, DC and share my secrets with dear friends."
"Dr. Mausner, I just wanted to express my appreciation for all that you have done for me during my "quest" for a better body image. I am very happy that I had my surgery and the wonderful results have made me feel well-proportioned, confident and satisfied. I truly appreciate your patience, skill, kindness and expertise. You have made a world of difference in my life and removed any fear I may have felt prior to surgery. Thank you for doing a first rate job." L.G.
"The best part of all is the boost in my self-confidence that I will enjoy for years to come. Dr. Mausner was able to transform my concerns about cosmetic surgery from fearful to miraculous." M.E.
"Everyone was very kind. I thought the phone call at home after surgery from Dr. Mausner was very thoughtful and reassuring. Most of all I love the results!" A.S.
"My experience in your office was so positive that I have already recommended two friends to your practice." H.B.
"The best part of my experience was the result—I love what I look like. But I also appreciate the relationship I developed with Dr. Mausner and his staff which was unlike anything I have had with other doctors: upbeat, informative, friendly and caring." L.K.
"I have talked to a couple of other doctors but none of them made me feel as comfortable as Dr. Mausner. I love my results and I think this is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Thank you, Dr. Mausner!" S.D.
When I decided to get breast augmentation, my primary concern was getting the right size and looking natural. Dr. Castellon and his staff took all the time necessary to ensure I would be happy with my results. I got exactly what I wanted with almost no scarring and a minimal recovery time. My confidence has grown exponentially and my only regret is that I waited so long to do it. MT
Dear Dr. Castellon, I wanted to write a quick note of thanks for your professionalism and caring attitude. During my decision making of having breast augmentation, I was extremely apprehensive. I had all intentions of having several evaluations with other doctors but after my first consultation with you and your staff the decision to move forward became quite clear. You and your staff’s reassuring attitudes and personal attention were evident throughout my treatment. I am now five months out from my augmentation and my husband and I are very pleased with the results! The results far exceeded our expectations. My sincerest gratitude to you and your outstanding staff. I recommend you to friends and family and will continue to do so in the future. Sincerely, TR
My experience at the Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Center was incredible. At my consultation I was well educated about my procedure and all of my questions were answered in a comfortable setting. I received quality care and beautiful results from my surgery giving me the extra self confidence I needed. I will never be able to thank Dr. Castellon enough for all he has done. He is a respectable person and truly is an artist. Thank you very much Dr. Castellon and staff.” KT
"I am extremely pleased with my flat stomach. Dr Schulman has a great bedside manner and the surgical staff was equally wonderful. I can confidently wear a two-piece bathing suit and tight, flattering dresses. My self-esteem has sky-rocketed, and I couldn't be more happier!" A.M.
"Wonderful. Staff and Physician. All handled with courtesy, consideration, and very professional. The result on my neck lipo was fantastic success for me and I am continuing the laser tretments to the lower mouth lines which is beginning to show results. I am so extremely happy that I found this Dr." G.P.
"Excellent staff - extremely fun & friendly, very knowledgeable about the procedures and Dr. Schulman's product line - including the specific active ingredients. Dr. Schulman is a very down-to-earth nice guy, a doctor that you would instantly feel comfortable with. His injections were by far the most gentle I have ever had, and I already see major results with the Dysport after 1 day! Thanks." J.C.
"Dr. Schulman has a very gentle and precise technique which is essential during procedures... His staff was very personable, efficient and professional . His new office is intimate and quite lovely...Overall, a very pleasant experience." L.P.
"Dr. Schulman, is very warm and friendly. I am extremely satisfied with the various services he has provided me with. His work is impeccible and the results have been life changing. I highly recommend him. I wouldn't go anywhere else. He's wonderful." M.Y.
“After four children, Dr. Schulman gave me my body back! I never thought it was possible and I feel so good about myself now.” K.G.
“I had my breasts, tummy, thighs and arms done after losing weight. I’m thrilled with the results. Dr. Schulman and his staff were wonderful.” S.S.
“After talking with him, I felt very confident in his ability to handle what I needed. He was absolutely professional and friendly. He put me at ease. Of course having surgery of this nature can be an embarrassing situation but Dr. Schulman was so great. I am very happy with the results. I had a Breast Lift and a Tummy Tuck done. You couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon.” A.R.
“It was overwhelming for me to find a plastic surgeon I can trust with my face. After consulting 2 other reputable Manhattan PSs, I didn’t feel comfortable as they were arrogant, I am happy I found Dr.Schulman.” L.Z.
“I have an AWESOME surgeon, Dr. Matthew Schulman at Mt. Sinai Medical Center in NY. He’s a miracle worker in my eyes.” S.H.
“I have had multiple surgeries with Dr. Schulman and he exceeded my expectations every time. My results are amazing and his staff made the process easy.” B.T.
Dr. Conrad, Thank you so much for helping me further my future in medicine. You are incredible at what you do. The passion and spirit you radiate have definitely inspired me to possibly pursue a career in plastic surgery. Please also thank your wonderful staff for being so kind to me especially Sheila. Best wishes to you all.
Dear Dr. Conrad, I visited your office on January 19th about the possible decision of what I thought was a kind of keloid on my forehead. After discussing my options, and the timeline for healing, you recommended I consult with a dermatologist. Upon your recommendation, I subsequently made an appointment with Dr. Steven Passman. I am pleased to report that Dr. Passman determined that I had a seborrheic keratosis on my forehead, which was easily removed by freezing the area. I am very grateful that you are a man of integrity, who did not take advantage of my lack of knowledge. As patients, we put our trust in your hands, and in my case, there would have been a tremendous opportunity to benefit financially. I will gladly recommend you to others and wish you much success in your practice.
Dr. Conrad, My sincere thanks for doing the surgeries to correct my breasts, I thought and worried about making the decision for three years. I was just waiting for that special surgeon - you! Sincerely
Thanks a butt load! Or in the case, a "Boob" load! Sincerely, you are quite a talented surgeon. I really appreciate your skill & expertise. Best regards
Your kindness is everlasting.
I recently had liposuction by Dr. Conrad and am very pleased with the results. Although it does take some time for the swelling to go down, therefore to look your best, I am very glad I had the operation done as even though I worked out religiously I always had unwanted fat on my sides. Now I no longer I have the "love handles" which I've carried around for the last 40 years. Thank you Dr. Conrad. G
As I looked across the office room at my young and beautiful mother, a realization of horror came over me. I stood up and grabbed her, "my God, you have cancer and they want to take your breast." She looked at me in shock as if in defeat and said, "Yes.” With that we were sent to a new plastic surgeon in town. On the first day we met Dr. Matthew Conrad and his staff, I knew everything was going to be fine. Dr. Conrad took time to explain options and procedures for making a new breast, as well as further options to come. He answered every question she had as well as my questions. It felt as if my mother was his only patient. Before and after surgery he visited her as well as listened to her, everyone of her concerns were addressed. My beautiful mother survived her cancer. And thanks to Dr. Conrad, she still has two breasts like every other woman. He also reduced her other breast to make a matching pair. A lifetime of back pain was gone. Most important is that she feels and looks like the beautiful woman she has always been. Now that my mother is healthy, it was my turn, not because of cancer, but just to feel good about my aging but still young body. I wanted to fix what childbirth and gravity took away. Of course only Dr. Conrad could do the job. Again, time was taken by him and his staff to explain every option and procedure. I felt as if I was his only patient. I had a breast lift and I feel and look fantastic. I tell my close friends that I may be 42, but my breasts are 22. And so when my daughter decided to fix a birth defect that didn’t allow her breast to develop correctly, I had no concerns about sending my daughter to Dr. Conrad. By this time I felt totally confident that he and his staff would treat her with the same great care he had given to my mother and me. My lovely daughter had her breast tissue fixed… and augmented. She looks fantastic and her confidence about herself is high."
"...Dr. Peters is a warm and sincere person along with a skilled surgeon. It's obvious she loves her work ad takes great care in doing the best she can." G.
"You have helped me more than you'll ever know. Thank you for putting me at ease as I confronted making a decision to which I'd already given too much time." R.
"I had a breast reduction in 2005, and I wish I'd had it done 40 years ago. My back pain was immediately gone, and I look more in proportion now." A.
"Though it took me longer than you expected, yesterday I finally went for a run. Words cannot even begin to describe the freedom that I sensed. I feel like a kid again and I simply cannot stop smiling." E.
"My family could not have been more honoring of and please with the 'new me.' I felt more alive than I've been in years and I enjoyed a new level of confidence that I continue to savor." J.
"As an operating room nurse for 30 years, I know a good surgeon when I see one...and Dr. Peters is the best!" D.
"One year ago, I got brave and had Dr. Peters do an abdominoplasty at the same time my gynecologist was doing a hysterectomy. It worked out so well, and I am so happy that I did it! I am a conservative mother/grandmother and a nurse. I just turned 50 and I look and feel better than ever. My life has changed! Since the surgery, I have lost 30 lbs (Weight watchers and the gym) and this is a big component of how good I look and feel. I ask myself: why wasn't I able to lose weight before the surgery? Dr. Peters was careful to counsel me that weight loss is not a reason for surgery, and actually I weighed close to the same before surgery as after, so don't go into it thinking it is a magic bullet. It still has taken discipline and great effort on my part....but, I think having the surgery helped because I had new motivation and energy and I wasn't battling that big blob of a belly. It gave me the possibility of restoring my body to match the image in my head of how I look. I could never get used to the idea of me looking 6 months pregnant year-round, year after year! I now have a flat stomach with abdominal muscles aligned...and did I mention how much I LOVE my new belly button? It's beautiful! Lastly, I want to address my pre-surgery concern of having such a large scar. One year later, I can tell you I am pleasantly surprised... the scar is fading so nicely. Dr Peters did a beautiful job and I can't imagine NOT doing it because of this worry. The scar has been a non-issue for me. Dr. Peters and her staff took good care of me, and I am ecstatic with my results." C.
"My mother was a patient of Dr. Peters before me. As a nurse, my mom knew lots of doctors and she wanted to go to the best of the best when she decided to have a facelift and blepheroplasty. Well, I was so impressed by the results that I chose Dr. Peters when I wanted my own facelift and blepheroplasty. I followed that by a breast augmentation and tummy tuck, and I’m thrilled with all the results. I had no complications, no scars and everything looks totally natural. Her staff is awesome. They make you feel really welcome. Dr. Peters is a warm and sincere person along with a skilled surgeon. It’s obvious she loves her work and takes great care in doing the best she can. I trust her completely and recommend her to all my friends." G.
"As an operating room nurse for 30 years, I know a good surgeon when I see one...and Dr. Peters is the best! She's a very caring, technically skilled and highly ethical physician. She remains calm under pressure and makes others working with her feel supported. Her work is beautiful. My experiences with her and her staff through several procedures, including a tummy tuck and liposuction for my chin and thighs, have been outstanding. I have recommended her to many people, and everyone has had wonderful results. I totally trust her and would definitely go back to her should I desire additional surgery in the future." D.L.
"I met Dr. Peters a few years ago when my wife went to her. I Immediately liked her and her staff. She is very approachable, personable and easy to talk to. She took the time to answer our questions, and her staff is very professional, kind and courteous. For a long time, I wanted to have my eyes done, just as my father had done many years earlier, to prevent long-term impairment of my peripheral vision from heavy, droopy eyelids, and to make me look less 'grumpy!' After I met Dr. Peters, I felt very confident in her skill and manner, so I decided to go ahead. I am very, very pleased with the outcome. It's made me feel better and look much younger. I have no regrets about the surgery and certainly not about Dr. Peters." D.H.
"I have known Dr. Peters for about 15 years. Before I was her patient, I was referring patients to her as part of my job with a group of general practitioners. I saw the results on those patients and was so impressed that when it came time for me to choose a plastic surgeon, I wouldn't have thought to go to anyone else. I've had several procedures and have been thrilled with the results. Dr. Peters explains everything thoroughly, and talks with me at length about what is feasible for me and discusses all the aspects of the surgery so I understand if it will be good for me, individually, including an explanation of what results I can realistically expect. She's very available and reassuring, and easy to talk to, and the staff is very accommodating and responsive. I trust her and her staff, and couldn't be happier." J.B.
"I first went to Dr. Peters at the recommendation of my doctor, and on the advice of my mother who said if it bothered me, just get it fixed! I wanted to get my eyes done, and when I met with Dr. Peters, I instantly liked her and trusted her. I asked her opinion of what else she thought would be good for me. Without any pressure, she told me about other surgical procedures which I then decided to have done. I've since had several different procedures and the results are remarkable. People tell me I look 20 years younger -- very natural -- and I feel very good about my surgeries. I had a breast reduction in 2005, and I wish I'd had it done 40 years ago. My back pain was immediately gone, and I look more in proportion now. Throughout all of my contact with her and her office, I've felt very well-cared-for, and welcomed. They are all terrific -- very personable, and Dr. Peters is trust-inspring and calm as well as a gifted surgeon. I recommend her to friends all the time." A.A.
"Dear Dr. Powers, Thank you so much for your exquisite work on my eyes. I love it & I know it will be just what I asked for! You have been more than a great Doctor to me, especially since this was my very 1st experience having surgery. Thank you for your love & patience towards me & for all your extra concern & care. This is truly an experience to take back to Hawaii."
"Dear Dr. Powers, One month ago today I was on the operating table under your very skillful hands giving me a "new" tummy. This morning while doing my 2 miles, 30 steps and 25 push-ups I was thinking how "very" lucky I was to "you" as my plastic surgeon. I just can't tell you how "grand" it is to see my reflection in a window and not see my stomach first!! How much better I feel about my body, and I'm very serious about loosing 20 Ibs while training for my L.B. 1/2 marathon. Thank you so - much for taking "good" care of me and helping me feel so - much better about myself."
"Dear Dr. Powers, Just a note to thank you for the excellent surgery I received. My body has a prettier shape and is better balanced now. I truly appreciate the personal follow-up care also."
"Dear Dr. Mary Powers, To start, I want to acknowledge what an extraordinary woman you are. I feel I have been blessed with an angel to care for me this past summer. Throughout my trials & difficulties I have always felt cared for and understood in "a most special way". Your exceptional ability to have flawless Dr./Pt. relationship truly made a difference. You are amazing at what you do. I thank you from the bottom of my heart."
"Dr. Powers, Nicole, and Staff, Thank you for all the care and attention and concern you gave me before, during and after my surgery. I am very happy with the results and appreciate all you've done."
"Dr. Powers, A thousand thank-you's for the beautiful work you've done on my husband and myself. You've made us feel so comfortable when we were deathly afraid and your care was just the greatest! Please thank your staff also, especially Jenny who worked so hard with us long distance. You guys are the greatest - Thank you! In Hawaii we would say "MAHALO"."
"Dear Dr. Powers, Thank you "so much" for taking such excellent care of my Besty! Even though we were initially a bit nervous, your warm personality immediately put us at ease. The fact that you took the time to talk with me before the operation meant a lot. "And," you can't imagine how much we appreciated your daily phone calls. It was comforting to know you were there should we need you. Betsy is feeling great, and recovering so quickly! This whole experience has been "very positive"! Thanks again so much!"
"Dear Dr. Powers, Thank you so much for performing my breast augmentation surgery. I am very happy with the results and my recover was very easy. You and your staff are absolutely wonderful!! In the future I will definitely recommend you to friends and family! Thank you so much!"
"Marylu, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your care of me last week. You made me feel so comfortable and at ease, I felt at home!! What a caring person you are, it made such a difference to my being there all alone. I am well recovered, just in from my first work-out and getting back into my routine...it feels great! Thank you." S.T.
"Dear Dr. Moskovitz, Thank you for being my doctor. I liked seeing you!" R.
"Dr. Moskovitz, I just wanted to thank you for all you have done in getting me my surgery. You always took me seriously; you didn't talk down to me and seemed to really understand what this meant to me. You never made me feel I was being silly. I have been, as I told you, called horrible names and made fun of for 15 years by my ex but no more. I did it for me and he will never get to enjoy. You treated me with respect and kindness and I thank you very much. I don't know if you would use a key chain like this but I made it for you anyway, I make a little money making things like this and jewelry, etc. Please accept it and once again thank your for everything." J.N.
"Dear Dr. Moskovitz, I would like to thank you for everything you've done for me. I feel so very fortunate to have you as my doctor. When I learned that you and Dr. Spira worked together I knew that you had to be "special", and I found out that to be so true! I look forward to many more years of you and your talented "mind, hands and scalpel!!" R.S.
"Dr. Moskovitz, Thank you for a lifetime of smiles and heartfelt consideration that actually made this all possible. Not to mention your incredible talent that I feel sure is unsurpassed. Your expertise will shine through where ever I go for the rest of my life each time I return a smile!" D.S.
"Dear Dr. Moskovitz, I can't thank you enough for what you've done. Working me into your schedule, etc. Please never ever change your bedside manner and let us hear from you if you move to DesMomes, Iowa. Thanks again for everything." J.P.
"Dr. Moskovitz, Words cannot express my appreciation for your skill and talent. ( I now have full length mirror in my home for the 1st time EVER!) I feel like a ton of bricks has been lifted off of me. Thank you so much!!! Wishing you the VERY best in the New Year!" K.P.
"I'm trying hard not to look at myself too many times in the mirror, but it's hard, because it's such a pleasure not to see the 'poochy' areas on each side of my mouth! I marvel at the skill and artistry of all plastic surgeons. Thank you for all that you did during my surgery." S.P.
"Dr. Moskovitz, Thank you for taking such care with my husband, following his car accident. His lacerations are healing nicely, and his other injuries are, too. He has already been released to go back to work. Your patience and humor meant a lot to me during this stressful time. God bless you." J.H.
"Martin, Thanks for making my dreams come true. You do amazing work and I'm truly grateful! It was a pleasure meeting you! ~ To my "fourth favorite guy" in the whole world- after my husband, dad and brother." S.G.
"Dr. Moskovitz, My family and I wanted to again express our gratitude for your commitment to my recovery. You are an exceptional surgeon as well as a wonderful person. Your care and concern as I survived the holiday in the hospital was greatly appreciated. Thank you. I will see you soon, until then I hope your house is moving along smoothly!!! I will be forever grateful to you!" S.B.
"To Dr. Moskovitz, Thank you so much for taking care of our son on one Saturday raining night at Valley Hospital. Most of all thank you for giving us a ride home, it was greatly appreciated."
"Dr. Moskovitz, I want to thank you and your staff for your expertise in conducting my BA surgery. You’re a wonderful Doctor! I wish you continued success in your professional career!!" N.B.
"Thank you so much for taking such good care of me. I appreciated the rides back and forth. I am doing very well and I am very satisfied. Looking forward to my next trip to New York!!" L.C.
"Hi my Dr. Marty, Mary Lou and Staff, Having a wonderful time here in Hollywood Beach. Thank you for the referral to Dr. Pat he was wonderful, but I love you more!! I feel good and getting lots of R & R. Love you guys!"
"Dear Dr. Moskovitz, I truly want to thank you for everything. You are a kind and considerate, understanding person; qualities that make a doctor not good, but GREAT!! Thanks a million!" J.C.
"Thank you for everything. You're the number 1 doctor I ever came across and glad I did!! You made me gain your trust from day one, your charisma, expertise and patience are remarkable and like no other. Thank you for an excellent breast augmentation and tummy tuck. I couldn't ask for more. Your staff is the best, very professional and very understanding. I am thankful that I chose you as my surgeon and I wish you the best in your profession." C.
"If I’d known how happy I was going to be with the results, I would have done this years ago! The procedure was relatively short and there was surprisingly little pain. I actually enjoy clothes shopping again!" S.M.
“Having this surgery has boosted my confidence tremendously. I feel so much better when working out at the gym or when sitting with friends on the beach. It’s made a true difference in my life.” J.W.
“Age spots. Wrinkles. My skin just didn’t look or feel good. So I began a skin care regimen recommended by The Carney Center. Within two weeks I saw remarkable progress. My skin looks younger, feels great, and even my age spots are lightening!” D.G.
“The age I looked on the outside didn’t reflect how I felt inside. I heard about injectables therapy at The Carney Center and thought this was a great option since I didn’t need surgery just yet. Best decision – love it!” D.R.
“This procedure changed the world for me. I’m literally a whole new person and have never been happier!” J.F.
“From diets to exercise, nothing worked to give me that flatter tummy that I longed for…until Dr. Carney recommended abdominoplasty. It feels wonderful to be able to comfortably put on my favorite pair of jeans again!” C.R.
“The decision to have liposuction was made so much easier by Dr. Carney and his staff. The procedure resulted in a brand new me – from how I look in my clothes to a whole new attitude on life. Big difference!” L.W.
"Recently I had a complete facial skin resurfacing laser procedure done by Dr. Martin Carney at The Carney Center. I'm absolutely thrilled at the results. My children tell me I look twenty years younger and much too young to have children of their ages." A.L.
“I looked tired, makeup looked awful…people would ask me if something was wrong. Having an eyelift changed everything! People actually look me straight in the eyes and ask me what my secret is because they can’t figure it out!” M.J.
“I didn’t look the same anymore… but the idea of a facelift was daunting. Dr. Carney set me at ease with his confidence and comforting explanations of everything. This was absolutely the right thing to do!” A.C.
"Dr. Carney always took the time to answer all my questions and any questions my husband had. I felt I was in medically sound hands, allowing me to concentrate on myself and getting better. The end result is wonderful! I feel better being free of breast cysts and look better than I did before." R.P.
"Dr. Martin Carney and his office staff are such fine professionals, and in such a caring way. Not being familiar with cosmetic surgery, he put my mind at ease immediately. My skin is so, so much firmer and the results continue to improve. My children have noticed a big difference in my self esteem. I feel this is due to the fact I know I look better." C.R.
"I saw Doctor Carney's ad in the Sunday paper. Just reading the ad, I felt that this was someone I could really trust to remove the hair on my face. It had gotten so that it was really bothering me to the point that it was all that I could think about. I had tried home electrolysis to no avail. It was just a waste of money. In three days after my EpiTouch treatment, you could not see any hair on my face. It is now over four weeks and still my face is totally free of the unwanted hair that bothered me so much in the past. I cannot say enough good things about this hair removal method. The people here at The Carney Center are very patient and understanding. Even though I had to wait, it was well worth my time. I can't praise Doctor Carney and his staff enough. I would recommend anyone who needs any type of reconstructive or cosmetic surgery to seek out the services of Doctor Carney. I think that it is very important to feel good about your doctor. I feel good about Doctor Carney. He is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and he just makes me feel that he has my best interests at heart." P.S.
"Recently I had a complete facial skin resurfacing laser procedure done by Doctor Martin Carney at The Carney Center. I'm absolutely thrilled at the results. My children tell me I look twenty years younger and much too young to have children of their ages. I chose Doctor Carney because he and his staff are efficient, caring and knowledgeable to the Nth degree about all of the latest techniques in Plastic Surgery, Lasers, Peels and Beauty Products. I can say this because I've been going to The Carney Center since 1993, when Doctor Carney opened his practice on the Peninsula. Every month since then I've gone to The Carney Center for face peels. I've tried different types and love all of them. I use his line of beauty products. He has an array from which to choose to suit all skin types. It is very individualized. I hold both Doctor Carney and his staff in the highest esteem and highly recommend them. Thank you Dr. Carney and Staff for my New Face...I love it!" A.L.

There is not a day thats passed I don't smile...at them!" B.
"I loved Dr. Greene and the entire staff from the very first vist. Everyone made you feel very comfortable. I loved how the entire staff was so nice and friendly. Dr. Greene makes you feel very comfortable and has a wonderful bedside manner." H.
"Dr. Greene is one of the best plastic surgeons there is. I am very pleased with my experience. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Greene. I will definitely seek his services again when I am ready and refer any friends or family that are in need." P.
"I will continue to come to you and your staff for any of my needs. You have been and continue to be a blessing in my life." R.
"I am very happy with my choice to have Dr. Greene perform my surgery. You are all amazing and caring people and I honestly feel I would have not gotten as great of care if I would have gone elsewhere. Thank you so much! You'll never know how much it means." F.
"I am happy with my choice to have this procedure performed and I have great trust and respect for Dr. Greene. I think what is important is that appropriate expectations were set up front by Dr. Greene and the staff...I thought Dr. Greene's website was the best and played an important part in my choice. Very professional and informative...Dr. Greene will always have my business and referrals." D.

M.
"Dear Dr. Greene, I just wanted to write you a little note...to express my heartfelt gratitude to all those who have touched and enriched my life along the way and you certainly have! You cannot know how wonderful it is to look at myself in the mirror now and see the woman I was created to be...to feel feminine again! ... You have such a wonderful staff too and they just made my decision and choices so much easier. So just know that I really do appreciate you and your expertise...Thanks for touching my life! You're the best!" H.
"I couldn't be more pleased. Dr. Greene and staff were exceptional throughout the process. I am very pleased with the results. My surgery and recovery was so painless and without event, I was and am very happy with all decisions made, especially the decision to have Dr. Greene as my surgeon." S.
"I have only worked for Dr. Barlow for 3 months, but I have been a patient since December 22, 2008. Before being hired, I had 10 laser tattoo removal treatments with Dr. Barlow. I have had great results, but I am most impressed with the care he took in managing the pain involved with the tattoo removal (it hurts!). In addition to numbing me 2 ways (topical cream and local anesthesia), he also used a very gentle hand while administering the local anesthesia. Going slowing and gently takes extra time, but he always allotted me the time needed to do it right. This is how I knew he would be a great boss!"
"My journey with Dr. Barlow and his team began almost five years ago. My patient coordinator was so warm and caring. I could tell that she was experienced with helping others navigate their way through change. She walked me through everything, and I felt a real connection with the staff. My experience with Dr. Barlow and his staff changed my life. I was in my early 40's, in the middle of a very stressful career and I was re-evaluating my priorities. I envied their passion and vehicle to pour into the lives of others on a daily basis through their work. So, after careful thought, consideration and prayer, I made the boldest telephone call of my life. I called Eileen (patient coordinator at the time) and told her that I wanted her job. I have worked here for almost 4 years and every day I love to be here. Dr. Barlow cares for each and every patient in way that I did not think was present in the medical community."
"Back in December of 2006, I wanted my breast implants removed and a breast lift. I had consulted with a doctor on two different occasions and thought he was the one to do the job. Well, little did I know that he already had a bad history of surgeries gone badly. I started running a fever as high as 102°, my nipples turned black and I could see white pus behind all the black dead tissue. I called the doctor each time, and each time he would tell me that I didn't have an infection. On one occasion he even yelled at me that I didn't have an infection. I saw him in his office and still he claimed that I did not have an infection. He was right on one part, it wasn't one infection, but three. Next, I consulted with yet another doctor whom I was referred to but he was reluctant to take me as a patient, but did advise me to go to Clear Lake Hospital, as there was a doctor on call that was a good plastic surgeon. That was the night that I saw Board Certified Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon Dr. Mark Barlow for the first time. When he walked into my room I felt a calm and peacefulness come over me. It was as if he had a glow around him of peace and caring. Since that night I believe he wears a halo of goodness. I believed in him whole-heartedly, that his training and experience could make me better. It was a long hard road of three surgeries and packing wounds for six months, but Dr. Barlow never gave up the fight. Each time I came out of a surgery I knew things would be looking up. He saved my breast. I only wish I had gone to him first so that I would have saved myself the physical (living with holes in my breast for months while infection drained, undergoing general anesthesia several times, and pain), emotional (fear and stress), and financial costs. Finally, I have to say Dr. Barlow is one of the most caring doctors I have had the pleasure of being in my life. If ever asked for the name of a good Plastic Surgeon, “I would say Dr. Mark Barlow, he rocks!” "
"I went to see Dr. Barlow in search for the perfect doctor to do my Breast Augmentation last year. As soon as I talked to the patient coordinator, I felt at ease. I had more consultations to go to after him but as soon as I started talking to him I knew he was the one. He made me feel completely at ease about having it done. From the time of my consult until now I have felt like family. Not only does he do exceptional work but he has the BEST bedside manner. Even when I would call every day they never made me feel like it was a burden for me to call and always said if I have ANY questions feel free to call them. The night of my surgery he called my husband to see how I was doing. Almost one year to the day later I am having another procedure done and still feel the same. I couldn't ask for a better doctor or staff than what I have found here."
Great Doctor / Great Team "Trying to find a decent doctor in the sea of options in Atlanta can be a challenge. I feel extremely fortunate to have found Dr. Jones and his staff. The very first time I called I felt comfortable, welcomed, and encouraged by the warmth they shared. Meeting Dr. Jones for the first time secured by expectations and exceeded them. He was friendly, caring, and took a genuine interest in my well-being. His demeanor and attitude let's you know that he has your best interest at heart. My procedure was minor, but the care he put in to making me feel at ease was above and beyond. He and his entire team are wonderful." J.
Great Referral "Dr. Mark Mitchell Jones is Fantastic! Sincere! He is the utmost professional. Most importantly, he is the best plastic surgeon. I consulted a friend that writes Med Mal insurance for hospitals and physicians. I asked him who he would recommend, if his wife was having surgery. Dr. Jones was the name I was given. Dr. Jones has done both the upper and lower eyelid lift and breast enlargement procedures on me. Both the experiences and the results are phenomenal. My eyes look so natural and my breast enlargement is perfect. Thank you Dr. Jones and thank you Bella and Holly for always making me feel so welcome and cared for." G.
Friendly, Knowledgeable, and Skilled: This is the ONE! "I had an amazing experience with Dr. Jones. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled. He was very reassuring and careful to answer all of my questions. I am very pleased with the results of my surgery. I feel a lot better about my body since the procedure, so if you’re looking for a good plastic surgeon, you’ve found one!" C.
Honest and Realistic Doctor with Impeccable Credentials "To say that Dr. Jones is qualified is an understatement. All you have to do is review where he studied and practiced, which is what initially impressed me. Having met with him several times now, I find him to be very likable, talkative and honest/realistic about the results I could expect from my surgery. I also like that he has his own practice. I have always been seen promptly and never feel like he’s in a rush to move onto the next patient. I have already recommended Dr. Jones to friends and would use him again." J.
Thorough Consultation and Careful Decision-Making; Friendly and Caring Staff "Amazing experience. I first heard about Dr. Jones through a friend. After my consultation with him, I knew immediately why my friend had chosen him over the other plastic surgeons. He took so much time answering my questions and explained all aspects of my procedure thoroughly. He presented me all the options and helped me make the decision best for me. His education and experience speak for themselves, and after talking with Dr. Jones, I was confident I had chosen the right doctor. His staff —Bella and Holly—were always friendly and available to help in any way I needed. I would not change anything about my incredible experience with Atlanta Plastic Surgery Specialists!" L.
Renewed Self-Confidence "Dr. Jones did a great job. I am happy now looking at myself in the mirror in the morning, and I don’t hesitate to refer him to friends."
True Rejuvenation that Shows "When a friend told me I looked 20 years younger, I was even more delighted by Dr. Jones’s procedure."
Wholesome Beauty "Being well-dressed and well-groomed was just not enough anymore. After Dr. Jones’s surgery, I felt that my face matched the rest of me."
"When I was moved from recovery to Park Plaza Hospital, I was moved into a "suite only" section of the hospital that is dedicated to plastic surgery patients. I felt that being in a section of the hospital dedicated to patients like myself meant that I would get care geared towards my special needs and would also made me feel that I was a real "patient". In my past experiences, I was a bit embarrassed to be in a hospital with truly sick people since mine was an elective procedure. I was afraid to ask for anything because I felt like I was taking nursing time that belonged to sick people. This was not the case at Park Plaza since I was in the special section where all nursing care was directed towards plastic surgery patients. The special amenities such as gift bag of products, bouquet of roses, special robe, dedicated chef/kitchen facilities for this dedicated section of the hospital made me feel very special and enhanced my hospital experience." E.
"Dr. Pinsky, "You're my hero"! I cannot tell you how happy I am with my new breasts! You and your staff are the best, I will never go anywhere else. You really helped me change for the better and I love the results! Thanks!"
"Dr. Pinsky, I just wanted to say "thank you" from the bottom of my heart. You did such a "good" job and have made me feel "so" good. Every time I look at myself tears well up in my eyes. You have given me something I never thought I would have. I don't think you will ever know how happy & thankful I am. You have changed my life & for that I will always be grateful. You truly are my angel. Thanks again! Your staff and the staff at St. Mary's are awesome! I can't thank them enough either!"
"Dr. Pinsky, I just wanted to say "thank you" for everything - I'm so excited about the surgery!! Thanks again - Have a great Holiday!"
"Dr. Pinsky & Staff: I wanted to thank everyone for being so helpful about my decisiont o have elective surgery. The office staff really made my experience comfortable. I also wanted to thank Dr. Pinsky for helping me with the second surgery. The results are perfect. I am totally satisfied!! I look forward to seeing everyone soon. Thanks for everything again."
"Thank you for all of your help before & after surgery. I am so pleased with "the twins" 🙂 I am referring all of my friends to your office. You "all" are wonderful! Thanks again!"
"Dear Dr. Pinsky & Staff - Thank you so much... you are a perfectionist!"
"Dr. Pinsky, Words can't express what a wonderful Doctor I think you are. I have told everyone not ony about my awesome results, but about my "awesome" Doctor!! I tell them about your warm personality, and how your bedside manner should be that by which all doctors are judged!! You truly set the bar high for every other medical professional whom I will cross paths with in the future. I now know what I want in a doctor, "I want someone just like you!!" Thank you and your wonderful staff, Staci & Kathleen especially. For making me feel so comfortable even through my "crazy modesty!!" You never seemed to judge me, you always seemed to respect it and do everything possible to work through it!! you truly are the best; from consultation, to the room, and beyond, you care... even on a Sunday morning. I will continue to tell everyone how wonderful you care & you continue to be wonderful!!" Many Thanks!! Ps. Hope you and girls like strawberries!!"
"Dr. Pinsky - Thank you for such an excellent outcome. Your professionalism is exceeded only by your skilled hands. My many years as an RN have helped me through my relatively untraumatic surgery. Your pre-op preparations, patient education and staff made this surgery an elective procedure that I'll never regret. Thank-you again!"
"Dr. Pinsky, Thank you so much for taking your time & going over all my concerns before surgery. But most of all Thank you for your kindness. it is so hard to find physicians now a days with the compassion & heart you have. You have GOLDEN HANDS & may GOD bless them! You cannot imagine what this has done for my self-esteem! Thank you a million times! Thank you for my wonderful work and great experience."
"Dr. Pinsky, Joyce, and Friends, I just wanted to take a minute to let you all know how much I appreciate all that you have done for me!! Not only have you helped me to feel 100% better about myself, but you have also been so nice and willing to help me any way you could!! An extra special thanks goes out to "Linda" and "Joyce" who went "above and beyond" to get my surgery done in record time, and to make me feel extra comfortable!! I wish all of you and your families a safe and happy holiday season!!"
"Thank you for everything. My recent surgery went off without a hitch - it was almost too easy. You made me feel very comfortable throughout everything, from the consultation to the minute I went into surgery. I am very pleased with the result so far, they have surpassed my expectations and I only expect it to get better!! Thanks again to Dr. Pinsky and your staff, especially Kathleen, who was especially helpful and cheerful. The whole experience was wonderful, and just 1 week post op I already feel amazing!!"
"Dear Dr. Pinsky, I'm sitting in your office waiting for my appointment, you just walked into the room to apologize for the wait. What an unheard of gesture of thoughtfulness! no other doctor has done that before, but clearly you are unlike any other doctor. How could I be upset about a minor wait after you spent much more time on my surgery than what was anticipated? From our initial consultation through all follow-up appointments, you have been extremely generous with your valuable time, your superb "bedside manner", thoughtfulness and genuine concern are only surpassed by your phenomenal talent. I'm touched by the albums of beautiful thank you notes... all rightfully deserved. I feel fortunate to have found you after numerous interview and diligent research. Your strong recommendations and credentials were convincing enough, but after our first meeting, my confidence and comfort level were sky high. Now that the surgery is over and I'm thrilled with the results, I'm proud to be on your long list of totally elated patients. Of course I have to mention Jennifer. She is in a class of her own! As beautiful as she is inside and out, her knowledgeable and professionalism are even stronger, your staff is the "BEST"! And the pink rose... what a meaningful incredibly special touch! I know that we will be seeing a lot of each other over the years (tee hee). With Heartfelt Admiration & appreciation."
"It is funny no matter how much older I got I still felt like the same person I was in my early 20's. However, as I passed a mirror it was as if someone else was looking back a me. Finally, after being asked "Are you tired? You look like it." I knew it was time to take action, the sooner the better. After careful research making sure the plastic surgeon was board certified and properly trained, I mad an appointment with Dr. Chin. I understood surgery would not make me look 20 again but after meeting with Dr. Chin and discussing the different options available to me, I had faith that the changes would be a step in the right direction. It's funny how we perceive ourselves. I though just a little work around the eyes would make the difference and my jawline needed a little definition. When Dr Chin explained to me the concerns I had about my eyes were indeed valid. But what I needed for the proper look was a browlift. The chin definition could best be achieved by a facelift. I had to give it some thought. This was more surgery that I had anticipated. But to get my eyes and face to balance made sense. At the consultation I was shown pictures of some of Dr. Chin's patients and noticed how natural they looked, unlike some of the people I had seen in magazines that had that "surprised look" or "too tight." I decided to go ahead and take Dr. Chin's advice. He had taken time to explain my options in detail and I felt very comfortable with him. On the day of the surgery I was nervous but Dr. Chin and the staff were very reassuring. Everything was so confidential. The operating room was AAAHC accredited and on site. One of the concerns I had was anesthesia. But everyone was wonderful. Everything went just as planned. The recovery was pretty much as expected except that I really thought there would be more pain. I was back to work in about 10 days. I am so delighted with the results. My family, friends, and co-workers have all commented on how rested and happy I look. Looking in the mirror now is a lot more fun. It has been 2 years since my surgery and many of my friends and family have become patients of Dr. Chin. I am always happy to refer someone to Dr. Chin knowing they will be taken care of just as well as I was." V.A.
"If you are anything like me, you’ve spent countless moments glaring at yourself in the mirror, critiquing every curve of your body. I wasn’t fat, but I could definitely stand to lose a little fullness in my thighs and flanks. Thus began my adventure into liposuction. I consulted with Dr. Chin, where I was able to view before and after photos of previous liposuction patients. Even a couple members of his staff have had the procedure and they were very helpful in sharing their experiences with me. All of my fears and concerns regarding having liposuction were put at ease. I was now eager to have surgery. Recovering from surgery was a breeze. To be honest with you, I really didn’t have any pain from the liposuction. The worst the discomfort felt, was like sore muscle pain from a hard workout. My complete result wasn’t immediate, but even with the swelling following surgery, I was smaller than I was to begin with. It’s now been almost four months since I had liposuction on my inner and outer thighs and flanks. My swelling is gone and so are the pants I wore before surgery."
"My experience at Dr. Chin’s office was very positive. I wanted to have my nose done because I felt it was too large for my face. My profile was awful. I went in for a consultation and he knew exactly what I wanted. The decision to have my nose done was one of the best decisions I have ever made. My confidence level is so much higher. When I speak to people I no longer feel they are focused on my nose. I am very happy with my results and wouldn’t hesitate to have more cosmetic surgery in the future. I give many thanks to Dr. Chin and his staff for making this experience wonderful and would recommend his talents to anyone." D.G.
"For years I’d lived with small breasts, only having fuller breasts when breastfeeding my two children. I felt my confidence would he greater if I had larger breasts to balance out my figure. Upon my consultation with Dr. Chin, I immediately knew I wanted breast augmentation and he was definitely going to be the doctor to do it. During my appointment, I viewed before and after photos of other patients who had had breast augmentation and also tried on different sizes of implants. My surgery and recovery went very well with no problems or complications. The first two days were the toughest. I was in a good amount of discomfort, but nothing that was intolerable, especially while taking painkillers. I quit taking all my pain medication on my fourth postoperative day. I then returned to work one week after surgery. I was a little sore, but was able to do most of my regular activities. By three weeks, all of my duties and routines were back to normal. My new breasts felt like they had always been mine and were completely a part of me. Overall, this was one of the greatest things I have ever done for myself. My confidence level was boosted higher than I had imagined. My figure is much more shapely and in proportion. I’m 5’2”, ll6lbs, and went from a 32B to a 34D cup size. I owe everything to Dr. Chin and his staff for helping me through this remarkable experience." M.L.
"I am very pleased with my procedures that I had done. Dr. Awada has been a Godsend she is very informative and was not interested in the money aspect but limited me to what I needed. She took the time to help me understand surgery is a stepping stone for the big picture not a solution." M.W.
"Dr. Awada did a wonderful job with my tummy tuck as well as my lipo procedure. I look 18 again. Even my general doctor loved my outcome and would recommend Dr. Awada. Dr. Awada and her staff members were very attentive to my needs pre and post op. I would trust her again and again." R.R.
"Dr. Awada and staff are all wonderful. Surgery went great, better then expected. Highly recommended!" K.C.
"Dr. Awada is a very professional surgeon whom I've had the pleasure of meeting. She did a great job on my surgery. I'm very satisfied with the results. She really changed a great deal of my lifestyle for the better. I am someone that was referred by another co-worker who also was a satisfied patient. Thank you Dr. Awada you are miracle worker." B.R.
"I had seen a few other doctors before choosing Dr. Awada do my surgery. She was the most professional, understanding and knowledgeable doctor I had seen. Her bedside manners before and after the surgery put me at ease and made me feel very comfortable. My results were better than I had ever hoped!" A.E.
"It has been 1 month since my breast augmentation and lift. For the first time since having my kids I feel sexy again!!! Dr. Awada made me look and feel like a million bucks!!!! Her staff has been wonderful every step of the way. I would recommend Dr. Awada to anyone who has lost their shape and self confidence and is looking to feel and look wonderful again." M.W.
"I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair done by Dr. Mariam Awada 2 weeks ago, and already I look as if I am seventeen again. I am healing remarkably fast, but still I mostly credit her instructions for post operative care, I have been following them religiously. She did an excellent job, exactly as I wished to look again; I couldn't be happier. In the future I would definitely go back to her should I need anything else done. She is professional, yet so down to earth and nice, it is unbelievable. She listens and cares, and that’s something they don’t learn in medical schools. Same applies to her staff; such easy going people, yet again so professional. I would definitely recommend Dr. Awada to my family and friends." M.R.
"I wanted to write to let everyone know how much I appreciated the time that Dr. Awada spent with me while I was making the decision to have my surgery. Everyone was so helpful with whatever questions I had. Everyone really seemed to understand how nervous I was and did their best to put me at ease. I was extremely grateful for the phone calls after the surgery to see how I was doing. It’s great to know there are doctors that actually do have a great bedside manner. The breast augmentation itself is wonderful. I feel much better about the way I look and I am finally able to fill out a shirt the way I want. I definitely would do it all over again." D.T.
"I had a breast reduction 2 months ago, Dr Awada and her staff were excellent from the moment I walked into the office. They made me feel welcome, and appreciated, and my husband was allowed to be with me at every appointment, at my request. I never waited more than 15 minutes for any appointment, and was in and out quickly, but was not rushed. Dr. and staff answered all questions I had with patience and understanding, even though I know they hear the same questions 50 times a day! I, and my husband were so satisfied, not only do we recommend her at even the mention of someone needing a surgeon, but he is due to get lipo himself tomorrow! I can't think of a better recommendation I could make, than to let someone operate on my husband of 17 years, whom I adore." S.W.
"Dr. Awada is an exceptional plastic surgeon who performed my AWESOME Breast Augmentation. I love my new shape and she was great from the minute I met her. She answered ALL of my questions. I had no pain after surgery, and she was so calming before surgery. Wonderful person, excellent surgeon, and great staff. Thank You!" T.L.
"This is to recommend Dr. Awada to friends, family, and future clients. Dr. Awada changed my life forever! I can never thank her enough for the beautiful transformation she made of my midsection and abdomen. Her office, her surgical team, and especially her made a dream come true. Dr. Awada, I am eternally grateful to you. Everyday I look in the mirror and I thank God he gave her the wisdom and the knowledge to perform such a wonderful procedure." T.D.
"Being a nurse, I spent a great deal of time researching for the best/ most skilled plastic surgeon. A friend recommended Dr. Awada. From the moment I stepped into her office, I knew she was the one. I scheduled my surgery right away. I am six months post-op. and I still find myself thanking my friend for the referral. For any one who is looking for 100% customer service and excellent care stop looking. Dr. Awada is worth the time, money and wait. She is the best. I assure you will be satisfied with the sincerity and professionalism of both Dr. Awada and her staff." M.S.
"I have been using Lou Anne Lewis as my facialist for the past four years. She is located about 15 miles from my home but whenever I think about seeing someone closer, I always go back to Lou Anne for her expertise. I can count on her skill and knowledge, her pleasant personality, and a very relaxing experience each time I visit." K.L.
"I have relieved so much anxiety and stress in my life from attending yoga classes at Mandala. Karina has really helped me improve my inner strength, breathing and reduce pain and stress. I thoroughly enjoy coming to Mandala and I would recommend it for everyone." C.S.
"Recently I had my first appointment for permanent makeup at Mandala. They did such a fantastic job on my eyebrows, I just love them! It has really made such a positive impact on my life, I would recommend going to Mandala to everyone!" L.R.
"I am writing to let you know how pleased I was to receive services from Gosha, a lovely, talented massage therapist. She was highly professional and knowledgeable. I have long been interested in body work as I have a dance background and I found her exceptionally good as well as informative and pleasant." J.P.
"I would like to take this opportunity to tell you what a wonderful experience I have had at your facility. Not only did I receive the best massage I've ever had, and a facial that made me feel like a new person, but I was also persuaded to try permanent eyeliner. I am so glad I did it; putting on makeup is now much easier without having to worry about the eyeliner, I love it!" E.D.
"What a wonderful experience it is to come to Mandala Med-Spa for a facial with LouAnne who has been my aesthetician for many years. My husband and I have travelled extensively during his career and I have had many facials in some wonderful spas - none can rival LouAnne's expertise. She is truly an asset to your Spa." D.G.
"Dr. Rude, From the very first phone call inquiry about the procedure to today, I could not have asked for a better experience thank what I've had.

Veronica and Shannon are "true" assets to your Clinic. They both have been wonderful with me. To me this whole experience has been a blessing. Thank you!" C.R.

"I just wanted to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all you have done. You started with a welcome and ended with complete satisfaction. You have made me a happier woman! Thank you so very much!" T.B.
"I'd like to mention how wonderful the doctor is! He never made me feel less then special. However, his bedside manor is so above and beyond! He saw I was nervous and held my hand and calmed me until I went under. He is hands down the best doctor I've ever had, ever! I will recommend EVERYONE to your office!" A.M.
"I would like to commend the doctor. He made me feel very comfortable in the most uncomfortable situations. I felt very safe all the way through the procedure. I am very happy that I gathered my courage and had Liposuction. I am very happy with the results. I also want to commend the person that took my history, she was very simple and easy to talk to.

"I was a little intimidated to even call for a consultation. I'm glad I did. From the very first contact, everyone I spoke to was so nice and welcoming. The entire staff was above any preconceived notions I had about a surgical clinic. I have worked in many different medical settings and the entire office is definitely the gold standard." J.F.
"From my initial e-mail to my present after surgery visits that I have been lucky enough to find a five-star plus physician and staff. They need no improvement! I feel so comfortable with this staff.

"The staff were always super nice and professional. I was especially pleased with how things went on my surgery day. I didn't have a bunch of idle time to sit and be nervous. I was treated with kindness throughout a very stressful process. My husband was also treated with respect! Thank you so much!" C.L.
"The only suggestion I can offer is to continue the excellent service which was provided to me. The entire staff is so professional, friendly and extremely knowledgable. I have never felt so comfortable in any type of medical facility. I would like to thank the entire staff for making this experience/procedure so comfortable. Dr. Anous, I knew I had made the right choice the first time I met you. Thank you for your care and concern to make sure I was doing this for the right reasons. You are truly gifted in every aspect of your profession. I will recommend your office every chance I get. I have never, nor will I ever, witness a Doctor escorting a patient to their vehicle, not to mention pushing the wheelchair. That was the icing on the cake!!" R.D.
"You made what could have been a scary procedure, comfortable for me. I am only 8 hours after my surgery and feel great! I am looking forward to my post-op appointment to be able to say "Thank you"!

Please know that I appreciate you every day, for I think of how fortunate I am to have benefited in choosing you and your staff for my surgery and care." P.S.
After many months of researching plastic surgeons throughout Arizona, Utah, Wyoming and Idaho, I discovered Dr. Moore with Teton Plastic Surgeons in Idaho Falls, ID. The initial consultation was very informative. Dr. Moor and his staff, Jennifer, were pleasant and friendly in our discussion. Dr. Moore answered all of my questions and is very knowledgeable. The surgery went very well and I experienced very little to no pain afterwards. However, there was a little swelling which was uncomfortable, but that was for a few days. Dr. Moore and his staff, Jennifer, treated my family and me extremely wonderful. My husband and I thank Dr. Moore and Jennifer very much. I would highly recommend Dr. Moore.
Dear Dr. Moore and Staff: What can I say other than a 100% transformation. I look and feel wonderful. My self respect, my self demeanor and my appearance has changed drastically. I did not find myself appealing to the public eye. BOY HAS THAT CHANGED!!!! My husband loves the new me, it has mad such a difference in my sex life, and the man can not keep his hands off of me. I final have a bra that now fits me perfectly, no gaps here, sister! I just hated that puckering that I usually had to fill out a 34A bra; I am now a 34C. My clothes fit better on me, prior to my surgery I had nothing, I always wore jackets or loose fitting shirts, because I was so ashamed of the small breasts that I had, NOW I wear for fitting tops and LOVE IT! Again, thanks for everything, the staff was amazing and Dr. Moore was the best! I would recommend him, when getting any type of plastic surgery. Sincerely, C.K.
Dear Dr. Moore: After losing 125 lbs., I was left with a lot of loose and unattractive skin and my breasts were almost non existent.(less than an A cup) I had two plastic surgery procedures and each one went extremely well. The recovery was much easier than I had anticipated. I am so thrilled with the results! I have young looking and perky breasts again.(C cup) My abdomen is flat and my thighs are slimmer now than when I was in my twenties. This surgery is the best gift that I have ever given myself and I would have no reservations about doing it all over again. I would highly recommend Dr. Moore for any cosmetic procedure. He's not only a highly skilled physician, but very personable too. I have felt completely comfortable with Dr. Moore and his staff. S.L.
Dr. Moore, After spending two years working with you in the operating room, I knew that I wanted to have breast augmentation. I have seen the work of other plastic surgeons, but I was consistently impressed by your work. You have an aesthetic eye for plastic surgery. Entering the operating room, this time as a patient, I was confident that I would have the best results possible. I could not have imagined how perfect my surgical experience was, and the augmentation is spectacular. I even joke that there should be a procedure to remove the permanent grin from my husband’s face. I feel that over the years we have become friends, but I continue to be in awe of your ability. Having the utmost confidence in you, I recommend you to all my friends and family. Sincerely, L.E.
"Thank you for the wonderfulness of you and your staff. I am so pleased from the first phone call, office visit, surgery and after care visit." J.
"Thank you for the wonderful experience this has been, I thank you for your expertise and professional environment. I am absolutely thrilled with my care and results from start to finish! My abdomen looks beautiful and it’s only been 2 weeks. Thank you for answering all my many questions which kept me at ease!" P.
"Thank you all so much for your kindness and big hearts not to mention the beautiful flowers, what a surprise! I have nothing but great things to share with friend and family about your office." T.
"Thank you for the wonderful way you are. I knew from the start that I had the right doctor! I love my new boobs! I feel so much better already and I am very thankful I found you! I will send all my friends and family to you." L.
"You have all been so kind and helpful. I am very happy with the results and with my experience. I really appreciate it. Thanks again." K.
"Thank you very much for the wonderful job you have done. You are not just a wonderful doctor, you are a good artist. You have made me feel mentally and physically better about myself. Thank you so very much." N.
"I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for the fantastic breast reduction you preformed on me. I have given this much thought and was very apprehensive. Once I made up my mind to have this surgery, I made a consultatio0n appointment. Upon talking with you my fears disappeared."
"My experience with your office has been outstanding beyond my expectations! The procedure itself has changed my body and my outlook. I feel wonderful. Your staff has been so kind and helpful- always available to answer my questions and concerns." L.
"I just wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you have put into my case. I am extremely greatly that you were recommended for me to see. At first I was nervous and scared to have to consultation but you made me feel comfortable and I thank you for that. I appreciate everything that you have done." P.
"I just wanted to take the time to personally thank you for the beautiful job you did on my recent breast reduction surgery. After researching the procedure for almost 10 years, I was so nervous and apprehensive. I always though it was a painful and long term recovery. I can not believe how remarkable I felt and looked only a few days post-surgery!! Your compassion and knowledge put me completely at ease and I know this made me more confident in my healing process. I know I have so much more confidence in myself and love looking in the mirror. I walk straighter, enjoy dressing more and actually was shacked at how much more comfortable I am at everyday tasks! (wearing a seat belt, flying on vacation, and swinging a golf club!!) I am so grateful to you and everyone at Image by Design. My only regret is not coming to see you sooner! Thanks so much I know I am going to look fabulous in my wedding day." N.
"Dr. M Kayser preformed surgery on my eyelids because the upper lids were drooping and my vision was impaired. The results were terrific. Post-operatively I had minor discomfort and the surgery greatly enhanced my vision and appearance. Dr. M Kayser’s professionalism and skills really impressed me as well as his wonderful staff. I would highly recommend him as a surgeon." M.
"I would like to take this opportunity to share with you my utmost jot at the results of my surgery. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that the abdominoplasty could make such a difference My self-confidence diminished ever time I looked at my body in the mirror. The stretch marks had taken over my entire stomach and due to my weight loss, the skin around my entire abdominal and stomach area was so very lose, it just hung. I knew I wanted to do something to change my appearance, but was afraid to make the move. When a doctor recommended that I see you, I was delighted to think that there maybe a “cure” for my problem. Upon meeting you and your staff, I immediately felt comfortable and at ease throughout our interview process. It felt as though you cared more about me as a person rather then just “doing your job”. My feelings were confirmed immediately, and I made the appointment for surgery the same week! I was a little apprehensive as the day approached, but you made me feel so at ease at the hospital on our final meeting before the surgery. Now, nearly eight months later, I am ever so grateful to you. My stomach and abdominal area are firm and flat. The stitch marks are fading quickly and I feel confident that they will diminish almost entirely. Even when I woke up from the surgery and there was a bit of pain, I KNEW that I did the right thing by seeing you and trusting you with my body and spirit. I will be forever grateful to you for helping me to be the complete women I know I can be." A.
"I just had to let you know how much I love my new look. Having breast augmentation was the best that I ever did for myself. Thank you for all the time you and your staff took with me. You answered all my questions and addressed my concerns. I love the way I look for the first time in my life. I can wear what ever I want. Thank you again I am very “HAPPY”." M.C.
"I am so grateful for my new look and to Dr. M Kayser who made it all possible. Specifically it was the personal attention that Dr. M Kayser gave to details that made my surgery a success. I feel and look beautiful!"
"Thank you so much for my new look, I love it! I am so grateful for such a fabulous doctor. Thanks for everything your staff is wonderful." D.L.
"I can’t thank you enough for your support, understanding, and encouragement though my pre and post op phases of my surgery. You have all been so wonderful to me and I wouldn’t have recovered as quickly as I did if it wasn’t for your sincere and professional attitudes toward me. I felt so comforted talking to each one if you and again…I thank you for the lovely flowers you sent to me. They were such a delightful and pleasant surprise." K.
"Just need to say, I’m so very happy I have a doctor like you- you’ve even picked me up when I felt down- you are the best in my book…Denise is a blessing. Denise you are sweet, kind and understanding. I’m glad doc has got you – Thank you both very much!" A.
"I just wanted to say thank you, thanks you, thank you for the wonderful job you did on my breast augmentation. They look more amazing than I could ever imagine. Your staff has been great! Any questions I have before and after surgery they were able to answer. They are so considerate and helpful. I feel like I will never be able to thank you enough for your amazing work and kindness. I also wanted to say thank you for the beautiful bouquet of flowers that you and your staff sent after my surgery. It was so thoughtful! So, thank you all every much! You’re the BEST!" A.
"From the 1st phone call to your office I have been impressed with your professionalism and warm caring service. The flowers you send were just another example of how you have exceeded my expectations! I couldn’t be more pleased with my choice and the results of my surgery." R.G.
"I can’t even describe how happy I am- Thank you for your help. You have been amazing!!" A.S.
"I just want to thank you for all you’ve done for me! I put my complete faith and trust in you, and I wasn’t disappointed. Thank you for changing my life and making me beautiful. You are the greatest! Love and god bless." L.W.
"I’d like to thank you for the great care you gave my mom. You are so personable, caring and thorough. Many doctors do not show the individual care and dedication you do. My mom has been in the hospital and I’ve had to deal with many doctors. You’ve truly picked the right profession. Again, I’m glad to have had you handle mom’s surgery and recovery. I’m looking forward to getting her back home. You’re a great asset to the medical field." L.
"Another year has passed and time to remember and be thankful. We will never forget what you did for our son. Dr. M Kayser your very special gift is still amazing when we reflect. Denise, thank you for all the paper work you did and for being a special person. Blessings to both of you and your families." M.R.R.
"Just a few words of gratitude for the wonderful job you did. I had wanted smaller breast since I was 17. I’ll be 37 this fall. It was a long time coming and well worth the wait. What can I say…? I love my breasts! God bless your hands. P.S. Janet is awesome too!" J.
"I am not happy about my results, I am ecstatic! It seems I just can’t stop smiling. This means so much to me. With heartfelt gratitude and admiration." M.
"Dear Dr. M Kayser, This is a long overdue thank you, from the bottom of our hearts for your excellent surgical skills and your sincere caring, understanding heart. You have given our son his beautiful smile back. Hang this picture in your office proudly if you’d like to share with other parents and cleft lip and palette children to show them there is a beautiful light at the end of the tunnel. God bless you." M. K. B.S.
"Dr. M Kayser, Thank you so very much for listening to me and knowing exactly what I needed and wanted from this surgery. I feel great and look wonderful. Your passion for your profession and your patient’s happiness shines in the work you do. I’m so glad that I chose you as my surgeon. God Bless. P.S. Denise, thank you for being there for me and staying with me. You’re wonderful!" J.
"Dear Dr. M Kayser, Thank you for your skill, artistry, and kind care. You have made the experience a positive one, Thanks!" L.B.
"To All Current and Future Clients, You have made the right decision just by stepping foot in Dr. M Kayser’s office. For years, I have considered breast augmentation surgery, and when I finally gained the courage to go through with it, Dr. M Kayser was the only surgeon that I felt could meet all my needs. During our first meeting he addressed all my questions and concerns with the utmost professionalism and sincerity. One can tell that he really cares about his patients and their well being. I knew from that moment on that I had chosen the doctor that I would be able to fully trust with my body. My experience with Dr. M Kayser and his staff have been physically, personally and emotionally rewarding. I am 110% satisfied with work has he done for me and I encourage you to consider Dr. M Kayser for either your first or tenth surgery. How can you go wrong with someone of his experience and caring nature?" J.W.
"Dr. M Kayser's attention to detail was outstanding. .He takes the time to understand your needs and to answer any questions you may have. He is a very attentive listener and both he and his staff are excellent at making you feel at ease. I am very satisfied with the results of my breast augmentation surgery and would recommend him to all my friends and family members." M.R.
"I wanted a board certified plastic surgeon because so much of the outcome depends on the skill and mastery of the surgeon. Dr. M Kayser did a GREAT job. I gave him an idea of what size I wanted and then left the end result to his professional opinion since he is the expert, not me. Excellent Fantastic Results. Had my surgery one week ago and I LOVE MY BREASTS. Also, Dr. M Kayser's staff is extremely kind and friendly and believe me I called there lots of times both before and after my surgery with lots of questions and never once felt like I was being a pest. Also, staff knowledgeable in different types of financing if you need to go that route. Very professional office atmosphere. Liked the fact that after physical consult was done went into Dr. M Kayser's private office to sit down and talk through any questions, etc." N.S.
"I am just going to start out with saying how wonderful Dr. M Kayser and his staff is! From the moment that I walked into the door, I could tell that this was the place for me. The ladies in the office were friendly and supportive and answered my zillion questions without hesitation. When Dr. M Kayser walked into my room on the first visit, I was immediately put at ease. His demeanor was professional and friendly. He answered all my questions and gave his honest professional opinion. A few days later, I called to schedule my breast augmentation and lower blepharoplasty, and within three weeks I was having the procedures done! Doctor Kayser came to talk to me before the procedures with his surgical staff, and put me at ease. He sat down and talked to me and made sure that I still wanted to proceed and that what we discussed was what I still wanted. I then drifted off to sleep and woke up with new perky round full breasts, and the bags under my eyes GONE! To be honest, I still can't get over how great my breasts look. They look better then I imagined! I remember that before I decided to have breast augmentation, I searched the internet and looked at 100's of before and after photos and I even saved one that I thought look amazing. I opened up the picture the other day, and to my surprise mine look just as good, if not better! Thank you Doctor Kayser, you ROCK!" A.
"I had breast augmentation and breast lift surgery done by Dr. M Kayser. My experience with him was wonderful. I felt completely at ease from the moment that I had my first consultation with him. He is very kind and reassuring yet also very knowledgeable and a perfectionist at heart. I am extremely happy with my results. I didn't actually think that my breasts would turn out so beautiful. I will absolutely return to Dr. M Kayser for any other future procedure that I may decide to have. I definitely recommend him to anyone who wants fabulous results with their cosmetic surgery." M.K.
"I want to thank Dr. M. Kayser for the procedure he did for me in April this year. I asked my family physician about having a breast reduction and had gone to a general surgeon who was recommended to me but I just did not feel right even after I went for a second visit. Then my close friend showed me an article from the paper with Dr. M. Kayser discussing breast reduction using the new SPAIR technique where the scaring is 50% less than the traditional anchor technique. I met with Dr. M. Kayser. He was very thorough and I felt confident after our visit. I met with Dr. M. Kayser a few times before surgery and I was more sure with each visit. I am a registered nurse and I feel that Dr. M. Kayser is very professional. He cares about his patients, takes pride in his work and I found him to be a perfectionist ...and Dr. M. Kayser did a perfect job. When I went for my first post-op visit, the staff asked me how I was doing; with a big smile I told them, “I was the happiest girl in the world.” That’s how I felt then and I still do four months later. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t thank God and then I thank Dr. M. Kayser." K.S.
"The decision to elect cosmetic surgery was a difficult one for me from the beginning...I worried about the perceived vanity issues, the financial aspect, the surgery itself, and the possibility that the results would not be significant enough to justify the investment of time, money and physical discomfort. The consultations I’d had with several other surgeons had done nothing to lessen my apprehension, and I was beginning to reconsider my decision. Then I visited your office. The contrast between those earlier interviews and my consultation with you was startling. You immediately put me at ease by thoroughly explaining the procedure, Andy possible complications, and the results I could expect in terms that I could understand. Your credentials were impressive, but your manner was so relaxed and reassuring, I felt comfortable asking all those questions that had seemed too frivolous at the other surgeon’s offices. I left feeling confident, not only in my choice of doctor, but in my decision to have the surgery. Now, several weeks, later, the results are in and I couldn’t be more delighted. My stomach looks better than it did before the kids, and I’m enjoying the bonus of a slimmer waistline. I now know that I made the right decision both to have the surgery, and in my choice of surgeon. Thank you for all you have done." A.M.
"As an experienced and demanding patient, I found Dr. M. Kayser to be exceptionally professional and his bedside manner was really just wonderful. I was in absolute dire straits having my last surgery two years ago go terribly wrong. I saw 9 specialists and none seemed to understand the problem, nor were they able to give me a straight and confident answer - they did not seem to care or know what I was going through. Dr. M. Kayser on the other hand knew immediately what the problem was, and proposed the options available, stressing the one which I was quite nervous about going ahead with - a full lift procedure. Now having had the surgery I am SO incredibly pleased I listened to his fantastic advice and would not hesitate to recommend Dr. M. Kayser. He specializes in lifts and breast reductions and uses (where appropriate) the SPAIR technique which limits the scarring compared to traditional lift methods - and it DOES work - I am already happy and it has been only a month! For anyone contemplating breast augmentation, Dr. M. Kayser is a real artist, pays a great attention to detail and is a supportive and caring doctor. I think his practice is very appropriately named!" M.
"I had a liposuction procedure done by Dr. M. Kayser, and am very happy with the results. I received very good care and had very little post-op pain. I came all the way from Ontario, Canada to have this procedure done. I had previously consulted another plastic surgeon, and he wanted to make at least 8 incisions. Dr. M. Kayser did the same procedure with only 2 small incisions, thereby eliminating extra unnecessary scars. I can't imagine a better result. In my opinion he is a skilled surgeon with very good judgment, and is very personable. His staff is also extremely accommodating and friendly." E.
"I had my breast implants done in June 08, and it’s been 6 weeks and I can barely see the scars! Dr. M. Kayser and his staff were very polite, professional and very good at what they do! Dr. M. Kayser even called me the day after surgery to make sure I was doing ok. Plus his staff sent me flowers after surgery. I would absolutely recommend Dr. M. Kayser to anyone!" K.
"After looking for a few years I found Dr. M. Kayser office and let me tell you I wish I would have found them sooner. Dr. M. Kayser and his staff took such good care of me before and after. I would highly recommend Dr. M. Kayser to anyone I knew who was thinking about plastic surgery." S.
"After breast reconstruction several years ago, I was in constant pain and was very unhappy with the misshapen appearance of my breasts. After a couple of bad experiences with other physicians, I was also reluctant to undergo surgery again, but finally the pain drove me to it - and I'm so glad I did. I now have beautifully matched breasts that look and feel very natural, and absolutely no pain! Dr. M. Kayser is a wonderfully talented surgeon, very professional in his demeanor but also so kind and caring. He and his staff immediately put me at ease, answered all my questions in detail, and made me very comfortable with the process. I give him the highest possible recommendation!" J.
"Dr. M. Kayser and his staff were the friendliest and most personable group of people that I have EVER met! Janet was the best!!!!! Her and Denise were so comforting and reassuring! Jennifer made me feel so relaxed and so confident with my decisions. I really love my new breasts that Dr. M. Kayser gave me and I will forever be thankful to him. I have two new best friends that will be with me for years to come!!!!!!!!!" R.H.
"After making the appointment, it was only 2 weeks and I was in. My appointment for the consultation was March 3rd and my surgery was on March 11th. Yes, only 8 days later! Good timing I guess. The staff was great. Dr. M. Kayser is very honest, even telling me something I didn't want to hear, but it was true. He is a perfectionist and has an artistic outlook. Denise, the office manager really helped me relax about the surgery. She was wonderful! They both really took the time to make sure all of my questions were answered and that I understood the procedure. Just as I thought it would, everything went smooth. The surgery was at St. Johns Surgery Center (which is great in case anything ever goes wrong). The nurses there were wonderful and so was Dr. M. Kayser. The surgery went quick and I only missed 2 days of work. The results exceeded my expectations! Dr. M. Kayser did a wonderful job. My breasts look better than I ever thought they could! I recommend Dr. M. Kayser to anyone who is considering plastic surgery." T.
"Dear Dr. M. Kayser and Staff - Where do I begin? I knew I wanted and needed a tummy tuck. After three consultations with (what I thought were respected doctors)I was not impressed or satisfied... Dr. M. Kayser and his staff! I still cannot seem to find the words to describe how happy I am with my tummy tuck. Your qualifications are outstanding as the Chief of Plastic Surgery with a local and respected Hospital. My husband who only met you on the morning of my surgery was very impressed with my choice in finding you as my doctor. Thank you again and again for not only saying that you could help me and my body, but proving so by my outstanding results. I know it's only been 12 days since my surgery, however I could not be more happy with my results that will only continue to improve. Thank you for having the knowledge and qualifications and the "it factor" that made my decision in choosing you as my doctor." Y.
"Dr. M. Kayser made me feel extremely comfortable about the surgery. I had been to other consultations but after meeting with Dr. M. Kayser and his staff I knew he was the one. Very professional and empathetic." J.
"It took me two years of contemplating having breast reduction surgery and after hiding my chest with oversized shirts for years, before I finally got up the nerve to call Dr. M. Kayser for a consultation-appointment. I was so nervous about having surgery that I cancelled the first appointment that I made. When I finally got my nerve up and met with Dr. M. Kayser, he helped to put my mind at ease. I had surgery this January and cannot even begin to express how extremely happy I am! Dr. M. Kayser made me feel so comfortable and his staff was just incredible. Everyone at St. John's Surgery Center was so caring and warm. After surgery, I was sore for about three days and I was not quite prepared to see the results. I was scared at first being that this was my first major surgery, but as each day went by I felt better and looked better. Now six months later, I am so thrilled with the results! I have so much confidence now and I look thinner and I am more proportioned with my body size. I am proud to wear proper tight fitting shirts and not hide my body. I even bought a string bikini for the first time in my life and wore it on vacation this summer. I just want Dr. M. Kayser to know how much I deeply appreciate what he has done for me and my new self-esteem! I am completely happy with my new hourglass figure!! Thank you." N.
"I was nervous when I had consultations with other doctors. I knew I wanted a tummy tuck, but who could I trust to perform it? When my husband and I met Dr. M. Kayser, we knew instantly we would be in good hands. The results far surpassed anything I'd imagined! My body contour is wonderful. My confidence has shot through the roof and for the first time in a long time I can honestly say I love the way my clothes look on me. You really took good care of me and I'd recommend you to everyone I know. You are the best! I am so happy! Thank you." M.
"I want all of your staff to know that I will never forget your kindness. Thank you all so much for making my experience such a pleasant one. I could have not prayed for a better doctor and staff. I am so pleased with my results. My breasts are beautiful! You guys are the best and know that I appreciate all of you so much." T.
"I wanted to personally thank you for the fantastic work you performed. I am extremely pleased with the surgical results but, more importantly, very impressed with your bedeside manner! I certainly understand why you came highly referred by three of my staff employees. Again, I thank you immensely for your surgical expertise and kind manner." S.W.
"I had a wonderful experience with Dr. M. Kayser and his team. Dr. M. Kayser's surgical skills made an incredible difference to my droopy, empty breasts - I now have the most beautiful breasts that look and feel completely natural. I highly recommend Dr. M. Kayser. The team at St John's Surgical Center were also terrific." J.
"Dr. M. Kayser performed a breast reduction on me and the result is incredible. I have never looked so good! I noticed a difference immediately. He, his staff, the hospital, and everyone involved in the process were wonderful. I was so nervous, and everyone put me at ease. I recommend Dr. M. Kayser to anyone who wants to have any plastic surgery performed." L.
"How blessed I am to have found such a gifted plastic surgeon and a caring person. I am so happy with the results of my surgery. It took me almost three years to find a plastic surgeon, who I felt comfortable with doing by breast reduction. Your thoroughness and professional presentation of your new technique during our first consultation proved to me that you were a cut above your colleagues and in a class by yourself. I would highly recommend you to my family and friends. Keep up the good work." G.V.
"I have always been partial to female physicians, so when I seriously began considering breast reduction surgery, my search was rather limited. After meeting with two female plastic surgeons, I was disappointed and very discouraged. I then (read) about the SPAIR breast reduction technique, not to mention your impeccable credentials and then made an appointment for a consult. As soon as I walked into your office, I knew I had found the place that I was looking for. From the onset you were attentive, kind, and truly concerned in hearing my needs and making them a reality. After 15 years of waiting, I am so happy that I went through with it. I am doing wonderfully! I would not hesitate to recommend you or this procedure to others. Dr. M. Kayser, you are a wonderful, gifted surgeon and a warm, caring person. I truly feel that I have been incredibly blessed to have been in your care." L.H.
"Dr. Vistnes must make so many people so happy! I should have never waited this long to go through with it!" J.L.
"It is amazing to me that just one day of work for him can completely change my life!" C.M.
"It's like a miracle to me! I am so thrilled that I did it!" C.M.
"I would never have been able to go through with the surgery if it was not for Dr. Vistnes and his staff. They were all so supportive and wonderful" R.V.
"After saving for my operation for 5 years, I needed to be sure that I chose the perfect surgeon for me. Dr. Vistnes gave me impeccable results" E.O.
"Dr. Vistnes was the only Plastic Surgeon out of a list of four that I had consultations with, that actually had a female medical assistant come in the room during the initial exam. That made me feel very comfortable" M.G.
"All I can say is thank god for Dr. Vistnes and his miracle "Pain pump. The recovery from my tummy tuck was much easier than I anticipated" E.M.
"I felt very comfortable with Dr. Vistnes right from the start. The fact that he spent the entire consultation with me really helped to put me at ease" T.F.
"Dr. DeLuca and Staff: First I wanted to send a note of thanks for the wonderful care and attention I have received. having plastic surgery for the first time, I was very nervous and had many doubts. However, the professional manner of you and your staff put my mind at ease; and in the end gave me a beautiful result. Thanks again to all of you!"
"Dear Dr. DeLuca, I wanted to take a moment to let you know how very pleased and grateful I am with my post operative results after liposculpture which was performed very recently. I felt you needed to know how life-altering your excellent results have been to me. The changes have created have enhanced my appearance, self-confidence and "completely" eliminated problems considered disfiguring and feminizing. The new proportions which include a beautiful broad male chest, narrow flanks and a reduced uplifted buttocks, have allowed me to enjoy the body type that diet and working out intensely alone were unable to do for over a quarter of a century. I consider your work to have completely positively changed my life in ways that are indescribable. I thank you."
"Dear Dr. DeLuca & Staff, Thank you so much for all you've done. Your compassion, "friendliness" & knowledge made the experience, my experience, more comfortable & enjoyable. Thank you so much for the beautiful flowers - they brightened up my day & the house. Thank you again."
"Dr. DeLuca, I hope that you recognize the cute, hairy fellow on the front. Well that's you Dr. DeLuca and the little puppy, that's me and all your other patients. This is how you made me feel. i know that i was in very knowledgeable, caring hands. You have a way of making patients feel at ease. For me this doesn't come easily, you have had enough experience in life at a very young age, that you are able to look inside a persona and read them fairly well. If I had one wish for you it would be, grow in wisdom with age but never change. You have such a big heart, always follow it."
"Karen, Barbara, Chris and Dr. DeLuca, I would just like to Thank all of you for making my experience with your office so comforting. You are all great caring people who make your patients feel very special."
"Dr. DeLuca & Staff, Turning 40 doesn't feel or look "too" bad these days! I am so very, very, very thrilled with my results. it was a true pleasure working with such a pleasant, friendly & sincere staff. You are all very special. Dr. DeLuca, What can I say? You can tell that you have chosen the right profession because you soar & soar above all others!!! Your bed side manners are "impeccable" & "genuine" and something I've never encountered before. You're a special 7 fantastic doctor "But" you're an amazing man!! I Thank you all from the bottom of my heart! God bless you and your families."
"Dear Dr. DeLuca, I'm writing to express my profound appreciation to you, and I want to thank you for all the many things you've done throughout the time I've had the pleasure of knowing you. During this time, both your professional & personal style have never failed to impress me. In addition, you never hesitated to take the extra time to make things "perfect" when "good enough" would have sufficed. You've made me one happy woman. I truly thank you."
"Dear Dr. DeLuca, Let me start by saying out of every M.D. I have met, you are the most professional. You certainly are different than most. You are a wonderful example of a Medical Doctor and I only wish there were more Doctors like you. Thank you for being so warm, kind and caring. You have made what could be a very scary experience into a pleasant one and I feel fortunate to have found such a surgeon!"
"Dear. Dr. DeLuca, I wish to express my gratitude to you and your staff for all the kindness shown me during my recent procedure. The level of professionalism, caring and expertise exhibited by all is truly impressive. You all gave me the confidence needed to "proceed" when I was somewhat apprehensive."
"Dear Dr. DeLuca: I wanted to take the time to write you a letter stating how thankful I am for what you have done for me. Your professional demeanor, caring personality and attention to detail has not gone unnoticed. I will without hesitation recommend you to everyone. Gracias por mis do bellas amigas. Las conciento todos los dias con amor y carino. Se estan poniendo hermosas. Muchisimas gracias port u dulsura." J.S.
"Dear Dr. Deluca: Just a few words to thank you and your staff. You made me feel very comfortable and welcome. My surgery was excellent. I am very happy with the results. Thanks so much." A.G. and family
"Just wanted to let you know I am extremely happy with the end results of the surgery. So many thanks for doing such great work! I really appreciate your talent. My apologies for giving you such a hard time throughout the process. You clearly understood my apprehensions and, with kindness, caring and compassion, put them to rest. The third time having my surgery (first with you) needed to be my last. Goal accomplished thanks to you." R.P.
"Dr. Cherup, In addition to what I said in my car, I also wanted to add that I now understand why you love your job so much. Not only do you get to experience the physical changes of your patients but also the positive mental changes that come with many surgeries. I realized when I left the office after my check-up of 2 months that you & your office remarked on how great I looked. I feel great and I am "certain" it shows. Hearing it from you & your staff was only further reassurance & made me feel like I had really made a great decision for myself. It was tough, but thanks to you I come out on top! Seeing big smiles like mine - all thank to your own hard work - must make for a great profession. Keep up the smiles & Thanks again!" B.
"Dear. Dr. Cherup, I could not find a card that expressed my gratefulness to you. Actually words can't convey how you have changed my life. I have confidence for the first time in 50 years. I look in the mirror and like what I see, no more wishing daily I looked like everyone else. How do I thank you for that? You are an exceptional doctor 7 person and I thank God he put you in my life. It really will be a Happy New Year for me." S.S.
"Dear Dr. Cherup, I'm writing to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done for me so far! I feel very lucky to have you as my surgeon and I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am." J.C.
"Dear Dr. Cherup, Thank you for being so proficient and meticulous in your effort to make me the best I can be. You are "artistic" in your appearance, which gives people confidence, and you have a true concern for your patient. I hope you can help me grow old gracefully or maybe "not at all!!" Your staff has been "exceptional". Always there for me if by phone or by visit. I hope you all enjoy these goodies as much as we're going to enjoy mine." D.R.
"Dr. Cherup, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done. I truly believe you have played the largest role in my weight loss and you have been honest from day one and continually motivated me since we met. I have a new found confidence! I can't thank you enough." J.G.
"Hello Dr. Peters! I just wanted to touch base with you. Yesterday I ran six miles and feel (and of course look) great. I am so pleased with my results. I look totally natural and proportional. I can’t walk by a mirror without noticing the improvement. Having breast augmentation is one of the best decisions I have made and we chose the perfect time to do it. My incision scars are fading very nicely also. Thank you so much. I absolutely love the new me!" R.D.
"You had called me as a follow up about a week ago. I was out of town. I want to tell you how much I appreciated your follow up call. I have worked in the medical field for years and have never seen such professionalism and follow up. You far exceeded my expectations. I have never had a follow up weeks after the procedure. I would recommend you to others at any given time. Please as you advance in your career do not forget the simple things. Thanks for all and I will see you at our follow up appointment." L.O.
"Dear Dr. Peters: As the year anniversary of my surgery - Breast Reduction, Tummy Tuck and Inner Leg & Back Lipo approaches, I wanted to write and tell you how happy I am with the results. Seeing the before and after photos you sent me reconfirmed how pleased I am. The entire process - from the surgery to post-op visits were all handled with professionalism and care that I really appreciated. You made this dramatic endeavor for me a surmoon table experience! Should any perspective patient request a reference from you, feel free to have them contact me. Thanks to you I look and feel great!"
"Hi Dr. Peters, I just wanted to send you a note to say thank you for doing such a great job on my mini facelift. This card really says it all. People will forget what you said and people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. You made me feel like I was doing the right thing. You made me feel like I was being heard. You made me feel confident in my decision to have the procedure done. Thank you for making me feel 15 years younger and looking it too!" B.C.
"Good day Dr. Peters, First, I wanted to write to give an extra special huge thank you, thank you!! You are definitely my hero! My tummy and arms are beautiful! I couldn’t have asked for better results than what I have now. I have never seen my body in the way that I see it now and I am oh so happy. I feel sexy and great! My husband thanks you too. Even though he didn’t care one way or another, he loves the new and improved me along with the sexy belly ring. I feel terrific and would do it again in a heartbeat and look forward to working with you in the future for my thigh lift." K.C.
"Dear Dr. Peters, Thank you very much for everything! This procedure has been life-changing for me and I am extremely grateful to you! I realize it must have been difficult to work on a colleague, but I think your professionalism really showed! I am proud to recommend you to anyone interested! Thanks again." C.M.
"Dr. Peters, I just wanted to drop you a note of thanks for everything. I’m so pleased with how my breasts look and I’m only 1 week post surgery. I can’t wait to see them in the next few months. You made me feel so comfortable and confident. Thank you again!" K.M.
"I first saw Dr. Peters at a very scary time in my life. Breast cancer had made a reappearance in the same breast that had been treated 12 years earlier with lumpectomy and radiation. Mastectomy was the only option, and my surgeon insisted that I speak first to a plastic surgeon regarding reconstruction. He recommended Dr. Peters. Dr. Peters spent a great deal of time examining, listening, and then making her recommendations. I immediately felt at ease and left with my questions answered. I opted for placement of a tissue expander at the time of the mastectomy. Throughout the process of saline injections and then permanent silicone implant and opposite breast lift, Dr. Peters could not have been more supportive, competent, or attentive. I am very pleased with my new "shape” and am so grateful that Dr. Peters is my physician." C.Z.
"I’m not sure if you remember me. It’s been almost four years—this is L. You performed an Abdominoplasty and Liposuction on me. I know I have thanked you several times, but I wanted to do so again. You literally changed my life and increased my confidence in so many ways. I still look great. I’ve maintained the same weight and love it." L.
"I wanted to thank you for perfection! Your skills are absolutely amazing and your kindness has been astonishing. You made what could have been a hard situation so easy and comfortable!" J.
"I cannot find the words to express the extent of my gratitude and appreciation to you. You have made me an extremely confident and happy woman. You were truly meticulous and supportive throughout the process. You rock!!! There is no other surgeon that I would recommend to others." P.
"Thank you so much for all of the care you have given me during the past three weeks. I appreciate that you always treat me as if I am your only client." D.
"Thank you for doing such beautiful work! I especially appreciate the time you spent answering my many questions and concerns. You are a truly gifted surgeon." S.
"Thank you for the amazing transformation! The “no scaring” is unbelievable. I have enjoyed having you as my surgeon. I feel I can trust you completely. I couldn’t be any happier with the results. I have felt such at ease throughout this process. I will recommend you to everyone I know." T.
"Thanks guys for answering all my questions, working with my crazy schedule and producing wonderful results! I couldn’t be happier. Dr Gray, thanks for being so sweet and down to earth. Robert, thanks for making everything fit into place. You guys are awesome! If only I needed more work done… LOL" A.
"Thank you so much for my wonderful results. You really took the time to understand what I wanted in my breast augmentation and I could not be happier! Also, your staff is fantastic. Everyone gave me the information and support I needed. I am so happy with my new breasts." M.
"You are awesome. Thanks for everything. The surgery was easier than I thought because of you!!!" T.
"Thank you! Thank you! Muchas Gracias! It has been a year since I had my surgery and I am very happy with the results!!" L.
"Many thanks for the top-notch work and comforting bedside manner. You are the best! My husband especially thanks you." M.
"Thank you for spending the extra time and attention with my injections the other day. It already looks amazing! I might even look a year or two younger then “30”. Thank you again for such incredible work." L.
"Thank you so much for reconstructing me! You are an amazing surgeon and I am sincerely grateful." J.
"Jennifer gives the best customer service I have ever experienced. She is warm, friendly, approachable and patient as well as very knowledgeable and professional. It is always a pleasure speaking with her and nothing is too much trouble for her. She has put my mind at rest when I have been unsure or warned before hand and has always been on hand any time afterwards to answer any questions I had. The practice is fortunate to have someone like Jennifer working for them, she is great! Thank you." A.P.
"Having 3 kids in 5 years - working full time as a Pharmaceutical Sales Rep - Turing 40 - all of these were reasons why I felt the time was right for a breast augmentation. The dilemma was - how do I find THE BEST DOCTOR? Fortunately, I found a Dr. 90210 right in Florida - and that was Dr. Hochstein. Not only did he come with excellent credentials, he had the experience & trust of very famous patients. In fact, during my consultation with Dr. Hochstein, I brought a photo of a very famous model who's breasts I admired. Turns out that her breasts were actually done by Dr. Hochstein in the recent past. What a coincidence that the breasts I admired most were done by Dr. Hochstein. Thank you Dr. Hochstein, for my excellent results that are admired daily." M.T.
"Dr. Lenny Hochstein, Thank you for your patience with me, the time you gave me in the consultation, and the beautiful results you gave me after surgery! I couldn't be happier." D.Y.
"Dr. Hochstein & Staff, I am so happy with the outcome of my procedure. Thank you for holding my hand all the way through my procedure. Sometimes the idea of having surgery can scare the patient. But, you guys and Dr. Hochstein were very understanding. Thank you so much!" C.M.
"My experience at Dr. Hochstein's office has been terrific; from initial consultation to post-op visits. I have the utmost respect for Dr. H. He's always professional and takes time to listen to any concern I may have. The office staff is likewise always pleasant and attention is paid to the patient's time. You'll never have to wait hours to see the doctor. They keep everything running smoothly. In conclusion, I'm very happy with my procedure and would have no hesitation in recommending Dr. H. to others." E.D.
"To Dr. H. & Staff, I just wanted to say that I think your staff is amazing. Jennifer was very helpful with providing me with everything I needed. She was so nice to me & my family. I'll be back for my face lift in 10 years!" T.
"It has been 1 1/2 months since I had my breast augmentation done with Dr. Hochstein and I am so happy with my results. Both Dr. Hochstein and his staff made me feel so good and very comfortably safe. Now I can truly look at myself in the mirror and feel that this is the way I want to look and I feel wonderful. I am very pleased with Dr. Hochstein." A.P.
"My experience with Dr. Hochstein has been great. My results from my breast augmentation and lift have been phenomenal, he did a wonderful job. From my first plastic surgery I couldn't have picked a better doctor. His staff was amazing and very attentive, if I decided to do anything else I would come back in a heartbeat. I would recommend him to anyone interested in having plastic surgery." D.G.
"The Dr. & Staff were very helpful. Sandy was sweet she went out of her way to make us comfortable & Estella called Christmas Day just to make sure I was situated & informed for everything. Great Experience." C.S.
"I am very pleased with the outcome of my surgery. Dr. Leonard Hochstein & his staff are the best - they make you feel completely relaxed & everyone treats you good. I'm so glad that I chose Dr. Hochstein, he does wonderful work. Thanks to All of you!" C.
"I was feeling a bit self-conscious about my small and saggy breasts for quite some time and knew that my only solution would be plastic surgery. I knew several women who had undergone the procedure - some were content with their results and others were on their second or third corrective surgery. Naturally, I had mixed feelings until a friend of mine told me about a plastic surgeon in Aventura that had been profiled on the E! channel. She went on to say that the E! channel compared Dr. Hochstein to the likes of some of L.A.'s top plastic surgeons. I knew right then and there that if I were to have a breast augmentation it was going to be by someone with that kind of a reputation. After all, surgery no matter how small is always a risk. I decided to contact Dr. Hochstein's office. When I called, I spoke to Michelle. Michelle was extremely informative and patient. Never once did I feel she was in a rush to get off the phone or was preoccupied by another task. She answered all 101 of my questions knowledgably and professionally and remained personable. I was hooked and scheduled a consultation that day!"
"Dr. Hochstein is an outstanding surgeon and has an incredible background to show. I have been researching Board Certified Plastic Surgeons seriously for about 4 years- and could not be more lucky to have found Dr. Hochstein. He has very prestigious qualifications and his training is remarkable. He took the time before to carefully listen and understand the things I wanted to change about my body and he did just that. With his help I feel like my outside matches who I am on the inside! Dr. Hochstein even took time to call and check up on me personally after surgery. The whole staff is marvelous! Every person is very caring, informative and genuinely concerned for the person not just the patient. Not only did they make me feel very safe and totally comfortable with the procedure- which was MY FIRST operation of any kind EVER, but they also took the time to reassure my Parents as well. Dr. Hochstein and the staff were supportive every step of the way- there was always someone in my room checking up on me after surgery. As an out of towner they re-arranged their hectic schedule to fit mine- and answered question after question with a supportive and caring nature. It is extremely refreshing how Dr. Hochstein and his whole staff are so dedicated to the well being of their patients. They have truly changed my life and I LOVE the beautiful results! Dr. Hochstein has given me a confidence that I never had before that is spilling over into all areas of my life. I will never forget the wonderful people from his office who I am so lucky to have met. Dr. Hochstein and his staff are by far the VERY BEST- you could not ask for anything better!" S.T.
"I just wanted to take the time to thank Dr. Hochstein. After having four children and a significant weight loss, my breasts were in sad shape! I really felt like my self confidence was affected by the way I felt about them. After a few consultations with other surgeons, I finally found Dr. Hochstein. He was highly recommended by several people, and I was impressed with his experience and educational background. Also his entire staff made me feel so comfortable! There are not enough words to describe how great I feel about my "new breasts" and the overall experience. The only regret is not doing it sooner!" C.H.
"Based on my fabulous experience and how happy I am, my family doctor now refers his patients to Dr. Harris. Knowing that I am a discerning individual (who researches before proceeding), he is confident that Dr. Harris is the best choice for his patients."
"My experience with Dr. Harris was amazing! He is an extremely skilled surgeon and I am very happy with the results and care. I wish I had this done years ago! The experience at the clinic was wonderful. Both the office staff and medical team provide the most compassionate care anyone could want. Thanks so much to everyone!"
"Dr. Harris, I just wanted to say thank you very much for the transformation and the exceptional care. I also really appreciate all the extras you did for me. I will continue to refer you to my clients and friends. You are the best!"
"It has been 7 weeks since my surgery and it felt like a “metamorphosis”. I am still healing but am pleased. You are an excellent surgeon with great care and kindness. Your staff are exemplary. I certainly have been in great “hands” and am so grateful!"
"Thank you so much, Dr. Harris, for all you have done for me. You are truly one of a kind! All of your staff was so good to me and understanding. I will never forget their excellent care. There are truly not enough words to thank you all. You have made me very happy. I am already able to see how this will look once it is all healed. Thank you!!!"
"Just want to thank you and your team, from the bottom of my heart. You made a negative into a positive. I will be coming in for my next procedure very soon. You’re the best!"
"I would like to thank you and convey how I deeply appreciate all you have done."
"Thank you for helping my mom and her cancer. It really means a lot to me and my family." D.D.
"There are no words in the dictionary to describe my gratitude for everything that you have done for us. I appreciate all the extra time (Saturdays) that you have given Phil to ease him through this situation. Your kindness and human compassion has truly helped us through this nightmare. I'll always remember what you have done for our family. Many thanks. Sincerely yours, K.
"My experience in your care and extreme accomplishment was certainly a ride I'll never forget. And I can't wait until the next zinger! Best Wishes," L.H.
"Once again how do I even begin to thank you? I feel blessed to have you, Dr. Angotti and my family physician on my side providing me with the "best medical care." Each and every one of you treat me with great respect and dignity. In the last 6+ years I have an admiration and deep respect that continues to grow even stronger. Before each and every surgery I look to you for reassurance, and I always feel strength and hope when I look at you before going off to sleep. I truly feel blessed that the lord has been able to work through you and Dr. Angotti. You are an amazing surgeon, and I am so thankful. I know that no one can tell me that I won't get cancer or if it will spread in the future; but I do know that you and Dr. Angotti always gives 100% of the best possible care and treatment! I am ready to move forward with my treatments. I am so grateful for your care." B.
"Thank you for giving me the chance to get back what I lost to cancer in 2003. I never throught it would be possible! I am still amazed and so grateful. My new year is looking brighter already. The happiest of holidays to you and your family." S.D.
"Thank you both so much for all your help and support before, during, and after my breast reduction surgery. I was pretty nervous throughout the whole thing not really knowing what to expect and you tow made the experience comfortable and easy (well, as easy as surgery can be). Thank you so much for everything!" E.
"I can not thank you enough for the gift that you have given me. My surgery has wakened the part of me that feels good about myself. I feel wonderful already and it's only been a week. Every person I encountered at your office and the surgical center was so kind to me. You are all a great group of people. Thank you forever Dr. Buinewicz. You are truly a great doctor and person. Happy Holidays." Love, R.J.
"I just wanted to thank you and your staff for the outstanding care I have received over the past few weeks. I never felt at ease with anyone in the medical profession until I met you and your incredible staff. I feel so lucky to have had such a great doctor and I wanted you to know how much I appreciate everything you have done for me. Thanks to you and your staff I look forward to a happy and healthy future." Thank you again. M.S.
"What a wonderful gift you have to be able to change someone's life with just a cut of your knife. She is maturing beautifully and enjoying her new body image. She has more self confidence and is gaining all the tools to be successful in the marketplace." Thanks for everything! M.J.
"The search for a plastic surgeon began, and not a pleasant experience by far. After consulting with four surgeons, I was still uncomfortable with their experience in dealing with the formerly obese patient and reconstructive procedures. I then came upon Dr. Leland Deane. I knew at once that this was the surgeon that I could trust. Dr. Deane has been instrumental in changing my life. Dr. Deane performed a body lift and a breast mastopexy. Dr. Deane is a perfectionist and he is unbelievably skilled. Dr. Deane's staff also added to my comfort level, and they been extremely supportive and helpful. Dr. Deane is the consummate professional." R.S.
"Dr. Deane is an amazing doctor and a phenomenal surgeon. I went on two other consultations and he was the most honest and realistic of the three. Dr. Deane is a very sincere doctor. He makes you feel very comfortable through the entire process. He is so meticulous about how he does the surgery, I hardly had any bruising or pain. He gave me my self-esteem back. I have recommended him to a lot of people already." M.B.
"I had a tummy tuck In July 2009 and have never been happier. I had a deformed belly button all my life, and he gave me a new belly button and I just love it! Wish I would of done this years before. Can't wait to get that new bathing suit. I immediately lost 6 inches from my waistline. He is such a wonderful doctor. And can't say enough about his staff. Just wonderful!" T.
"It was difficult for me to come in for my consultation, but everyone was so warm and friendly, they really put me at ease. Dr. Colony, was thorough and thoughtful and really took the time to answer all my questions." L.W.
"I love my new look! Thanks, Dr. C." J.M.
"Dr. Colony and his staff have helped me correct those little imperfections I couldn't improve on my own through good nutrition and regular exercise. I am 110% satisfied with my results, and can't say enough about their customer service and professionalism." S.B.
"Even though I had given breast reduction a great deal of thought, elective surgery is a big decision. After my first consultation with Dr. Colony, however, I felt worry free and confident about going ahead with it! This turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made just for myself! Dr. Colony and his staff did an excellent job of educating me on the procedure. They also went "above and beyond" to make sure I felt not only physically comfortable but emotionally comfortable as well. After surgery, the very compassionate staff even followed up with phone calls to help monitor my recovery (which was much quicker than I had ever imagined). I have complete confidence in the "Dr. Colony Team" and often recommend this practice to friends!" P.
"Dr. Colony is so approachable. He is not arrogant or stuffy. He makes you feel welcomed and important. He was so patient when I asked him the questions I had about breast augmentation. He took the time to listen and care. He is wonderful!" K.I.
"I never thought I'd ever consider plastic surgery. However, when my favorite workout - running - literally became a "pain", I began to do a lot of thinking about the possibility of having a breast reduction. Huge decision! I decided to explore. A friend recommended Dr. Colony. The first time I went to his office I felt like I was important to him and his staff. They all worked together to help me understand the procedure. The day of surgery everyone was extremely kind, compassionate and attentive. After surgery they were very helpful, knowledgeable and concerned about me having a speedy recovery - which I did! If a friend is considering plastic surgery I always recommend Dr. Colony." P.A.
"I wanted to touch base with you to tell you how very happy and grateful I have been with the results of my surgery. I don't think I ever properly thanked you, so here it is! I will be 60 in October and I feel 40! Of course, I know that exercise and a good diet helps, but not being self conscious about a sagging chin, droopy skin, etc. sure boosts the confidence (and happiness!) level. Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH. You are a very talented and kind surgeon. Hope all is well with you and yours!" N.B.
"Thanks again for everything. I couldn't be happier with the results. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new body and am thrilled that at 49 I look better than I have EVER looked. Certainly I did my share of the hard work losing the weight and toning up but without your help I would never be able to show it off in this sizzling little bikini! Thanks again and see you in 6 months!" D.P.
"The care and efforts I received post-op by all the nurses and both Dr. Gray and Dr. Baker showed so clearly that they are all concerned in reaching the best possible outcome and will go to any length to make me happy.... I'm very happy!" S.
"Everyone was so wonderful It was the perfect experience and it exceeded my expectations!" B.E.
"To Everyone at Atlantic Plastic Surgery, Thank you for the extra special care!! You are amazing and are a wonderful team!" L.
"Your thoughtfulness meant so much. You put yourselves in the patients shoes and made sure it never felt impersonal. I will always remember what a big difference your “TLC” and kindness made n the healing process. All those things were truly appreciated." S.
"My breast augmentation procedure at Atlantic Plastic Surgery Center was very pleasant and calming. I highly recommend Dr. Gray and his staff. They were helpful and informative from the when I first went there for my consultation, through the decision making, the surgery, and my recovery and check ups. I am so happy with my results." M.
"I can’t tell you how happy I am with my results. I still can’t believe its me! Dr. Gray, you and your staff were wonderful to me. If at any time, I can be of any help to you with my wonderful results, all you need to do is ask. Once, again, thank you!" D.
"Late in 2005, I had the good fortune to met with you and your staff to learn more about breast reduction surgery by liposuction, a procedure you pioneered, and, as I can attest, perform successfully at your very comfortable center in Portsmouth. I underwent the surgery in January 2006. I would be remiss if I did not write to tell you how happy I am with the process and the results. I feel like a new , younger, lighter woman. I move more confidently and am without the back pain that has plagued me for years. I no longer need to strategize about which dress (blouse, shirt, bathing suit…) might – just might- fit and flatter my top heavy frame. It’s downright liberating! I extend sincere thanks to you and your staff, al of whom, were friendly, professional, caring and knowledgeable. I would recommend the procedure to anyone considering it." C.
"I am not comfortable at all in doctor's offices, as a rule. However, when my procedure was done on June 30th, I received the best and most relaxing warm and comforting care I have had since my son was born 14 years ago. Both my husband and I , along with my niece and her husband, were all very impressed with your establishment, and the way you treat your patients. These days, that is very unusual. I would not hesitate to recommend your clinic to my family and /or friends and actually have 2 other people so far. Thank you so much." F.
"As I prepare form my one month check-up I once again am reminded, as I am daily, of how beautiful I feel now! For the first time in my life I feel like a woman in a dress, a sweatshirt or without any clothes. Your kindness and support before, during and after surgery was been wonderful. You should all be proud as I am of you!" D.
"I wanted to thank you so much for helping to co-ordinate a wonderful experience for me at your office. As a first time patient, everyone was so professional and friendly and Dr. Ballentyne was wonderful! I am very happy with the results of my Botox treatment. As my friends and I approach our late thirties, we will be looking for more opportunities to improve our appearance with a natural subtle result. Your office is whom I would recommend to any family members or friends that inquire about plastic surgery or skin rejuvenation procedures. Thanks again for helping to co-ordinate a fantastic experience for me." S.
"I wanted to thank you for all the scheduling assistance that you provided. My procedures have gone like clockwork. Thanks for your help and professionalism." M.
"A friend referred me to your website and your before and after shots, so I chose you. I was a very small 34A before my surgery. I showed you several pictures of what I wanted to look like. You helped me decide what size to be. Now I am a full 34C. I am extremely happy with my size. I would say you are an artist. My friends can't believe that you actually made my breasts look like the picture I had shown you. My recovery was speedy, I was back to work after 4 days and doing international travel 2 weeks later. All had been a wonderful experience for me." A.
"It has been one year this month that I came to your facility to have breast liposuction performed, and I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the results. I 've had no problems with recovery, and my breasts look like they haven't looked in years! Thank you to you and all your staff for being so helpful and thoughtful thorough out the procedure. I definitely came to the right place!" T.
"Thank you for all of your support. I can't tell you how happy I am with my result . I still can't believe it's me! Dr. Gray, you and your staff were wonderful to me. If at an time I can be of any help to your with my wonderful results, all you need to do is ask! Once again, thank you!" P.
"Dear Dr. Gray, I wanted to let you know how happy I am with the out come of my liposuction & breast reduction. I've gone from 44DDD to a 40D. I've been self conscious my whole life. It was hard to find clothing, people would remark about my being big busted, I feel so much better about how I look now. Wow! Thank you so much!"
"Thank you for creating this wonderful website. My plastic surgeon was Dr. Gray of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. A friend referred him and your website had information and before and after shots so I chose Dr. Gray. I was a very small 34A, before my surgery. I showed Dr. Gray several pictures of what I wanted to look like. He helped me to decide what size to be. Now I am a full 34C. I am extremely happy with my size!! I would say Dr. Gray is an Artist. My friends can't believe that he actually made my breasts look like the picture I had shown him. My recovery was very speedy, I was back and forth after four days and doing international travel after 2 weeks. All has been a wonderful experience for me."
"Dr. Gray's entire staff worked together to make my surgery what it should be - comfortable, relaxed and catered to what I wanted the end result to be. Plastic surgery can be life changing and Dr. Gray has a knack for understanding this. his staff went over my options several times and gave me guidance that allowed me to make decisions I will be comfortable with for a lifetime. The nurses and staff put me at ease immediately on the day of the surgery and the anesthesiologist gave me medication to calm the few anxieties I had while I relaxed before hand in Dr. Gray's beautiful private rooms with warm heated blankets. Recovery from my surgery went without complications and the follow-up visits and long term care instructions were perfectly explained to me. I have already sent several friends to Dr. Gary and I will return to him in the future. I am thrilled with the results. Thanks for helping me achieve my goal, Dr. Gray!"
"Dear Dr. Gray, Dee & Staff, I would like to take a few moments and give a sincere thank you to you and your staff. I had breast augmentation and liposuction done in March of 2007. I am very pleased with the outcome and also very impressed and pleased with the staff at Atlantic Plastic Surgery. My experience was nothing but excellent. I felt very comfortable calling the office with any questions I had and believe me I did call those first few weeks after surgery. Everyone was helpful and never made me feel like I was bothering anyone. Dee was especially fabulous in every way, whether it was returning my calls or having to schedule an appointment around me (I live a 16 hour round trip away). Dr. Gary was very professional as well as friendly. I never felt uncomfortable discussing what I wanted with him. He made me feel confident in him as a doctor and that no matter what procedure I asked for I would be happy with the end result, which I was. He and Dee were both very direct with expectations as well as care after surgery. Even though I live so far away I always felt that they were there if I had any questions. I would like to commend your front like people as well. They were courteous and accommodating. Again, anytime I called or entered the office I felt welcomed. I will definitely be back in the future and would recommend Dr. Gray and his staff to anyone. Thanks so much for making my experience a wonderful one."
"I was highly impressed with everyone associated with the center... treated kindly and feel the staff really went the extra mile throughout my stay. Highly recommended!" D.N.
"All the staff at Dr. Gray's office are very professional and also very caring. I never felt rushed, neglected or mistreated... It was a very comforting experience!" L.P.
"I just wanted to thank you all for a pleasant experience. I was extremely nervous going into this procedure but everyone was very helpful and very kind." C.Y.
"Before my rhinoplasty I was reluctant to smile and draw attention to my nose. Now I smile all the time and have received countless compliments! You don't know how happy you have made a girl who hated her nose her whole life, until now! thanks so Much!" H.M.
"Although, I can not imagine how many patients come thru the door... you all made me feel like the only one! Thank You!" J.H.
"I believe your service is excellent... I would recommend your facility to anyone and felt I was treated like a queen!" C.C.
"I have been more than thrilled with the outcome of my surgery. I feel so much better about how I look and feel... I would recommend to Anyone your facility and will definitely come back for any procedures I decide to have in the future." C.N.
"Waiting for silicone breast implants was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was approaching 40 years old and was frustrated, embarrassed, and quite frankly disgusted with the state of my breasts. I have always been a competitive athlete; tall and thin and a full B breast size. But, I had 4 children in less than eight years and nursed each baby for a year. Subsequently, my breast tissue was significantly compromised and basically consisted of empty sacks. I explored surgical enhancement options 4 years ago and was very disappointed to learn that I was not a good candidate for saline implants for the type of result I was looking to achieve. Although I am tall and thin, I have an athletic build with a large chest cavity and broad back. Subsequently, trying to regain my generous B look was not obtainable with my body type. With saline implants, if I stayed with my vision of a B cup, I would have that “fake” look which I was absolutely not interested in. Also, with my very thin tissues, I did not want to feel the rippling of a saline implant like all of my thin, athletic friends have. Therefore, although frustrating and disappointing, I chose to wait the 4 years until silicone implants were finally available. During my research to find the best board certified plastic surgeon to help me achieve my goal, I was fortunate to discover Dr Laurie Casas from Northwestern. Her comprehensive approach, outstanding training and credentials, extensive experience, candor, honesty, and disciplined process, which produced exceptionally natural results, was exactly what I was looking for. Exercise has always been a significant part of my life as well as a solid vitamin regimen. That part of the program was easy for me. My social drinking and social smoking were behaviors that I quit a month before the procedure. Any surgical procedure, especially elective, produces some feelings of fear and apprehension. My experience with Dr Casas was exceptional. Her approach to pain management is amazing... Especially since my augmentation was under my muscle and my experience was virtually pain free. The first two weeks post op are challenging with the restricted movement of your arms to ensure optimal results. I am fortunate that I have live in help and family in the area who were extremely helpful during that time. Weeks 2-6 were difficult for me giving up my passion: daily competitive tennis and working out. I spent the 6 weeks post op following the MLD (manual lymph drainage) therapy requirements to reduce swelling and to help prevent scar tissue. Very few physicians incorporate this progressive therapy which has such incredible value to making you look normal by two weeks and keeping the tissue soft. My results are extremely natural, have completely restored my positive feelings about my body, and I have been so happy with my decision. It is clearly a very personal decision whether or not to pursue surgical augmentation to correct the natural implications of pregnancy and nursing. But when people ask “would you do it again knowing what you know?” my response is always, overwhelmingly YES!"
"After having had four children, breast-feeding them, nurturing them and surviving the early childhood years I realized a significant physical and emotional toll had been exacted on ME. Within ten years I did not recognize myself; I was carrying twenty extra pounds, on a 5’1” frame, my breasts had grown to an E cup and I was exhausted trying to camouflage it all. At 41, I was a shadow of the person I was before and I needed to make some serious changes. I needed a mommy makeover! Dr. Casas’s forthright philosophy and integrated approach to patient care blew me away!! She devised an individualized surgical plan that addressed my total well being including: diet, exercise and a vitamin regimen that would enable me to achieve the end result I wanted. Dr. Casas’s pre-surgery protocol would ensure I was in the best physical shape before during and after my surgery. From the first meeting with Dr. Casas she spoke in great detail about pre and post surgery processes that were necessary to ensure success, whereas, other plastic surgeons merely highlighted them. I knew that the breast reduction and tummy tuck I wanted would get me back on track and that Dr. Casas was the surgeon that could help me sustain the results. In the weeks preceding my procedures I got serious about my diet, committed myself to an exercise routine and made arrangements for the care of my children and myself after surgery that Dr. Casas recommended. I arrived at the hospital 15 pounds lighter, and both physically and mentally prepared for the procedures ahead. As a direct result of Dr. Casas’s methodical approach and commitment, I was confident and ready to reclaim myself! With four children at home, I spent two days in the hospital following surgery and then went home prepared to tell my children that while I was “out of town” I had injured my ribs. This helped explain my slow movements and need for rest to the children. Within days Dr. Casas had me back in the office to receive manual lymphatic drain massage (MLD) to minimize swelling and increase mobility. MLD is a standard post-operating procedure with Dr. Casas and again one that I did not hear about with other surgeons. I was amazed by my lack of swelling and discomfort that I anticipated and believe this was the direct result of Dr. Casas’s philosophy and approach. I feel it is important to note that Dr. Casas’s staff seamlessly managed my recovery progress as well. From incision care to appointment making everything was “patient-first”, thoughtful and organized and a fabulous reflection of Dr. Casas. It was evident that her entire staff embraced the same philosophies on patient care that Dr. Casas embodies. After one week I was walking around more comfortably and had minimal bruising. Using a combination of natural remedies and over the counter products I was managing my discomfort without narcotics. After two weeks I was getting back to my normal routines and feeling strong. After four weeks I was back to my normal routine, looking better than ever and feeling fantastic! Without Dr. Casas’s talent and genuine commitment to my total well being I would not be where I am today… 25 pounds lighter, 3 clothes sizes smaller and strong! With Dr. Casas’s integrated approach to surgery I got the results I was looking for within a recovery time frame that was far shorter than other women I know whom have had the same procedures. If you are considering a plastic surgery “mommy makeover” at all, I highly recommend that you go down the path with Dr. Laurie Casas. The end result will be beautiful inside and most definitely outside!!!"
"I made the decision to have breast implants over a three year period. I had lost most of my breast volume through pregnancy and breast feeding. I postponed the decision until my children were older and I had divorced. As a newly single woman I had become self-conscious about wearing a bathing suit, and I could no longer find a bra that fit. Dr. Casas was very patient with me…. I had lots of questions! I am very athletic, and wanted to make sure I could resume my physical activities, and that I selected a size that wouldn’t interfere with my active lifestyle. My surgery was held in the morning, and I was awake and comfortable by 1 that afternoon. I opted to stay in the hospital for two nights. I had told my children I was having shoulder surgery, but still did not want to worry them with my immobility. I was very worried about going under general anesthesia as a parent of young children. Dr. Casas took my anxiety regarding this seriously, and prescribed me anti-anxiety medication to take just prior to and after the procedure. I had never taken anything like this before, but it definitely helped to make me comfortable and relaxed. It was a wise choice. She also gave me a nutrition and vitamin regimen to follow prior to the surgery. The herbal remedies to reduce bruising were amazing…. I never had one bruise! As a single mom, getting help after the procedure was paramount. My mother and a friend helped me for the first five days when I was not to be alone, but I was very mobile, and was able to get out for school drop off, coffee and even dinner within that five days. By the end of the five days I was no longer on pain medication as well. I had opted for a pain pump, and that seemed to be enough. I had drains as well, which were easy enough to clean and manage. I also had help after school through bedtime for the first two weeks with driving and childcare, as Dr. Casas had instructed me to not lift my arms, prepare dinner, or do anything strenuous. I parked myself on a couch and my kids sat with me as they did their homework and caught me up on their days. It actually was pleasant to sit with them like that in comparison to the hustle-bustle of our normal days of sports, lessons, practices, and carpooling. Dr. Casas called often to check up on me. She was wonderful. I went to the follow-up appointments and Manual Lymphatic Drainage massage with a friend so I would not have to drive, as I didn’t feel well enough to drive myself for about two weeks. I highly recommend the massage. It really helped to reduce the soreness and swelling. During this time Dr. Casas fit me with a bra and gave me a regimen of exercises, and taught me how to change the bandages. She had me wear an ace bandage tightly across the top of my chest with the bra to create the breast shape. I did this for many weeks, but it was easy enough to conceal this protocol under clothing. The change in the breast shape was gradual, but looked completely natural within 3 months. I had opted to have my incision in the nipple, and these scars are barely visible 6 months post-op. I also opted for saline implants. There is a bit of rippling that is visible because I had such little breast tissue, but Dr. Casas told me of this in advance, and that was a choice I made for myself– saline over silicone. When the time comes to replace them I will re-evaluate that decision. Six months after my procedure I am so incredibly happy I made this decision! The results are natural, and I am training for the Boston Marathon, so I can attest to the fact that they definitely do not interfere with the sports I so enjoy!"
"My fiancé and I were going to a tropical location for our honeymoon. We planned this a year in advance and I decided to have the breast augmentation that I always wanted before my wedding. Not only would I feel better in my wedding dress, I knew that I would finally enjoy wearing bikinis and I would be on my honeymoon! The surgery took place at a hospital and I did it on an outpatient basis. Though I was nervous on the morning of surgery, Dr. Casas and the hospital nurses made me feel very comfortable and I was extremely prepared for what to expect following the surgery. Dr. Casas had given me a full description of what to expect, what to have on hand at home, and made me feel very confident in her ability. The whole process seemed to pass by quickly and smoothly and I was kept comfortable ,informed and extremely well taken care of. At first I had a lot of questions and each time, Dr. Casas answered in detail and then followed up with an email or called to make sure I understood the answer. Once she even met me in her office on a Saturday afternoon (her off day) when I wasn’t sure if I was wrapping correctly). I wanted to be sure that all of the swelling was completely gone before my wedding, and with Dr. Casas’ post-op regimen of manual lymphatic drainage massage, that was not a problem! I found the dress of my dreams and I didn’t even have to hope that it would ‘disguise’ my lack of breast tissue. I was so thrilled. It actually showed off my new figure and both my husband I loved the outcome! It made me feel more feminine and gave me more clothing options than I had before – I would do it again in a heartbeat! I highly recommend it!"
"I am a 26 year old newly wed who was just married in March 2010. For the most part, I’ve always been happy with my complexion; with the exception of a few brow wrinkles and red spots (broken capillaries) on my nose. I had heard about Dr. Casas through a client at work and decided it can’t hurt to explore my options. Of course I wanted to look my best on my wedding day without looking “botoxed”. From the first time I met Dr. Casas I felt very comfortable with her ability to address my concerns. She took several factors into consideration before recommending a course of action. She suggested a laser treatment for my red spots and a few injections of Dysport to fill in my brow lines. Both procedures were extremely quick, painless and affordable. Dr. Casas also recommended a Hydrafacial, which has done WONDERS for my pores. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the results and the service. Dr Casas and her team of professionals exceeded my expectations in every way and I will thank her every time I look at my wedding pictures!”
"The following is a story, which led one woman to consider, research, and go for plastic surgery… As a mom, I have spent the majority of my time tending to other people and things. I am a jack of all trades and can fix nearly everything. Yet I never stopped to think that I deserved the same thought and care as my refinished floor, repainted rooms or rebuilt patio. We moms are masters of home improvement, kid improvement, and school improvement, yet we save only the last gasping breath needed to get ourselves to the bathroom to slather on face cream and brush our teeth. Never a tenth of a percentage of our time goes into taking care of ourselves. Well for this mom all things changed one day when I took stock of myself, yes myself. There I said it. Yes I figured out long ago that those marriage vows were really code for "You will now put yourself last". Nonetheless I let everything wait for just a minute, ok half a minute and began pondering myself, my body, my physical being. Me Me Me Me It feels good to say it out loud sometimes. When things start to break down or fall apart in our homes we fix them, we call in contractors, we carefully plan out our improvements and save for them. Well if the body is a temple I took one look at myself and thought well, there goes the neighborhood. Despite my desire to keep up my house I seemed to let my proverbial temple go to pot. In fact it bore more of a resemblance to a mission than a temple. It was time to make some improvements and quick. That is where it really began. Once I gave myself permission to care for and improve my body as I do my home the rest of it fell into place. I asked myself what exactly would I like to do for myself? The answer was that I simply wanted to restore my shape to something that resembled my pre-pregnancy body. I thought about it and it made sense. I had housed three tenants for nine months a piece and they just left the place in shambles. So, I decided to reclaim ownership, and the search began to find right plastic surgeon. I contacted three different ones…The first doctor I saw, simply did not understand that I did not want to change who I looked like. I just wanted to freshen up the body that I already have. The second doctor, had some major renovations in mind. I was not set out to rebuild the Sistine Chapel, I just wanted to improve my own humble temple. Then I was fortunate enough to meet Dr. Weinstein and his staff. He took the time to listen to my concerns and made it a point to understand my mission. His staff carefully explained each and every step and Beverly too was invaluable in getting me through the process. No matter how small the concern she got right back to me. Yes, Dr. Weinstein was the doctor I chose. Not only did I instantly feel comfortable with him, I knew that he would always do whatever was in my best interest. I determined that if I am ever going to be bare-assed naked on a table, well this is the guy I wanted to have in charge. So I did and I was and the results are terrific. So my advice, is to go ahead and simply do for yourself what you would readily do for a worn out floor or tired paint. Rejuvenate yourself and enjoy! You deserve it."
"Dr. Weinstein, along with his staff, made my procedure as routine as possible. His caring and intelligent way made me realize I had chosen the right doctor and that I was in good hands. He is wonderful at what he does and has exceptional skill." L.M.
"Words could never describe my gratitude for your fabulous work. You have helped me restore my confidence and self esteem." D.O.

"My Cosmetic Surgery Journey... A True Story" The Coachella Valley might be considered the "Mecca" of Cosmetic Surgery. It appears we have the most "plastic surgeons" per square inch of any place on the planet! Therefore, when I started the journey to find a special doctor to entrust my face... I was truly looking forward to the experience. Over the course of five months, I visited nine extremely professional and highly qualified cosmetic surgeons. Each one of them had something unique and special. Yet, for me, none of them had everything I was seeking. Then, just by chance, (I now say "straight from heaven") a tenth doctor appeared on the scene. Direct from his practice in Florida, Dr. Bruce Landon arrived in the desert. And everything changed! From my first encounter, just passing in the hallway of his office, I felt something different. Dr. Landon reinforced that feeling when I had my consultation. His "bedside manner" reminded me of what practicing medicine used to be about. First, he listened, then he questioned, he listened some more... we had an in-depth conversation on a very "human level". I felt sincerity, and warmth; something I had not experienced prior to this visit with Dr. Landon. The next step in my process was discovering that this truly nice man possessed highly skilled surgical abilities. Dr. Landon's background, training, experience, and long (very long) list of ecstatic former patients, sealed my decision. Now, almost four months after the procedure, Dr. Landon still occasionally calls me, checking in, just basically touching base... with yet another ecstatically satisfied patient. Bottom line: Book your consultation...now!" S.W.
"I would like to thank Dr. Landon for my new outlook on life, through my surgery. It has been almost 3 years (actually 3 years in October) I'll never forget his visit to me in the hospital, just before we went into the operating room - we had no plan on doing my eyelids but as Dr. Landon said "We don't want to burn any bridges" - & said we should do your eyelids, we did & now thank God we did. It has been a pleasure to be a patient of hers also. I'll never forget the staff - I would love to repeat this surgery again if I had to!" P.V.
"Dr. Landon, Thank you so much for all you have done. After my two children I never thought I would look and feel the same. You have given me so much more than you know." Thanks again K.
"Dear Dr. Landon & Staff, I want to take a minute to personally thank you for changing my life. I walked into this office not feeling adequate and that affected other parts of my life. Deciding with Dr. Landon to do this surgery has changed the way I look at myself and has given me greater confidence at work and at home. I can forever be grateful for the personal attention and excellent care given to me while a patient here at Landon Plastic Surgery. I will forever recommend this office to friends and family." Thanks again T.S.
"Dr. Landon, Words cannot explain what a wonderful experience I have had. my surgery was great. Recovery was fast and I feel amazing. Thank you for your time and comfort Dr. Landon, you and your staff are so warm and welcoming. I have also continued coming in for facials and Melissa is fabulous. I love the products and make up. Thank you for everything and I cannot say enough wonderful things." A.M.
"From the minute I walked in the door, I was in awe, the facility was so clean and gorgeous. Dr. Landon was so attentive during my consult, he was encouraging & kind, yet he did not "sugar coat" the healing process of this surgery & gave full warning of what it all entailed. Dr. Landon was my 1st consult & my last. My husband & I agreed that there was no need to look any further. From the Spa Staff, to the Receptionist, to the Anesthesiologiest,, have & will continue to recommend Dr. Landon to anyone knowing full-well that they will be in THE BEST OF HANDS. Thanks Dr. Landon, you have changed my life." B.J.
"Dear Dr. Landon, You definitely went "above and beyond" for me and I appreciate it greatly you are an "artist" and inspire such a wonderful benefit to all the baby-boomers. We need all the help we can get! I love it when people stop me to tell me "you look different, what did you do?" Must be the new makeup!!" Thank you again.
"To All, I just want to thank you for making my experience very comfortable. you all are so dear and kind!! Thanks again!"
"Thank you so much for all you've done for me. You are a great surgeon to work with!"
"Dear Dr. Landon, This seems like the perfect time of year to tell you exactly how much my husband & I appreciate you. Your medical expertise, we are sure, is the envy of your colleagues. What we value, aside from that, is your kindness and caring. Every time you saw either one of us, or both, you always gave us your time (which we know is very limited!) and you always treat us with respect and genuine caring. It is sad to say - but there are very few anymore in your profession that anyone can say that about. To say that you made such a "huge" difference in my recovery is an understatement. You not only helped to heal my heart, and my wonderful husbands heart as well. I just want you to know how important you are to the people you take care of. I am "very" proud of the way I look - my husband and family are proud of that and of course happy that I feel so well. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts, "you" made the difference!"
"Dr. Landon, Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule and explaining everything to me. I am now looking forward to it. Thanks again." Sincerely
"Dr. Landon, Denise & Patty, I am so pleased with my results. Thanks for "everything!""
"Dr. Landon and Co-workers, Thank y'all so much for being so supportive and being so Wonderful to me. Y'all are the greatest and nicest office anywhere around!!! You have made me feel apart of your "family" and what more can anyone ask!! And after all, I really look Gooooooooood."
"Dear Dr. Landon & "Everyone" at Landon Plastic Surgery, I just wanted to thank you all so much for taking such great care of me throughout the entire surgical process! You're all awesome - I will recommend Landon Plastic Surgery to all of my friends!"
"Dr. Landon, Thank you for giving me my lips back. I'm very happy!"
"Dr. Landon, Thanks so much for your kindness & expertise. They are greatly appreciated"
"Dear Dr. Landon, My face is looking very, very good. The "blue peel" also did wonders! Thanks for the gift!!! You are very gifted"
"Dear Dr. Landon, There are "no" words to express my appreciation for the awesome work you were able to accomplish on my rapidly aging face. I feel so much younger! Here's a Happy Hour in a bag for you to enjoy..." Fondly
"Bruce & Cheryl, Thank you for all you have done for our family! We appreciate it!"
"Thank you very much for your kindness and generosity. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your skillful stitching. Again, it was very kind of you."
"Dear Dr. Landon, I wanted to thank you again for all your help n my medical situation. I appreciate so much your kindness, generous giving of your time and expertise - traits that are so rarely seen these days."
"To Dr. Landon & Staff, I want to thank all of you for making me feel comfortable, at my office visit on July 29th." Ps. Thank you for the gift bag Thank you
"Speaking from my experience at Landon Plastic Surgery, it’s all about "You” and only you! Beginning with my consult, the staff greets you with a warm welcome. The nurses are very knowledgeable and empathetic, preparing you well for surgery and answering any questions you may have. Then you meet the Dr. Landon. He speaks with you about your procedure and any of your concerns. He is a good listener, never making you feel rushed. You will be confident with your surgery decision, your surgeon and a realistic surgical outcome. Anxiously anticipating your surgical enhancement, the day arrives. It is a good experience – your very own state of the art surgical suite and team. The complete experience is everything you expect from a very dedicated accomplished plastic surgeon and nothing less!” D.P.
"After three children, I felt a little bad about my body. I went to Dr. Reddy from a recommendation of a friend. Dr. Reddy and I discussed a breast augmentation and liposuction in the initial consultation. On the day of my pre-op, Dr. Reddy suggested the butt lift as well. He did not charge extra for the procedure, and I love the results. It completes me. Thank you!!!" M.G.
"Prior to coming to Dr. Reddy, my daughter was teased constantly at school by her classmates. Dr. Reddy performed otoplasty. He was kind and excellent. The staff was very good as well. My daughter has increased confidence. She was just asked to her first school dance. " J.T.
"I was looking for an experienced Plastic Surgeon. I went to a couple of Doctors and had consultations and wasn't impressed. When I called for a consult with Dr. Reddy it was late Friday afternoon nearing almost evening, and his office was closed. I thought I should leave a message about a consult or just wait and call on Monday morning to set up an appointment. I decided I'd leave a short message. A couple hours later that Friday Evening Dr. Reddy called me I was so pleased that the Dr. would take his own personal time to call me on the start of the weekend. I set up an appointment for the beginning of the week. Right away when I met Dr. Reddy in person I felt comfortable. I told him I wanted a facelift. He explained the entire procedure. He was direct and caring and put all my fears to rest. It's been about a month since my operation and I can tell you I'm a new Woman. I lost 20 years and found the best Doctor in the world. I usually don't leave recommendations but Dr. Reddy's expertise is warranted all the hoopla I can say. If you're in need of any kind of Plastic Surgery I suggest you give Dr. Reddy's office a call. His staff is wonderful also.. Caring knowledgeable and realize your time is important. If you're considering any type of surgery.. take my advice and call Dr. Reddy I don't think you'll ever regret it." J.
"Dr. Reddy and his staff are sensitive to your needs. They excel in all areas. I have had multiple procedures and have recommended Dr. Reddy to numerous friends as well as my family. I was first treated in 1999 for breast augmentation and mastopexy (lift). Subsequently, I have had rhinoplasty, liposuction and also lip augmentation. I would not trust my health or the health of others with anyone other than Dr. Reddy." J.
"Excellent!!! Everyone is so warm and friendly. Dr. Reddy and his staff put the patients first." L.
"I am no writer by any means, so what I am about to write comes straight from the heart. I met Dr. Reddy 10 years ago for a consultation after I had surgery by a different physician, which was not exactly right. Because of that, I was looking to get that fixed. I thought to myself that I would not go to just the cheapest surgeon, as I did previously. Therefore, I had made 5 appointments in one day. Dr. Reddy was my last consult of the day, and not only was he the cheapest, he was also the only one that spent any amount of time with me, telling me what would benefit me and what wouldn't. Needless to say, I booked my first surgery with him to correct what the previous physician did. When I was able to take off my compression bandages, the results were PERFECT and exactly what I wanted. I have to admit that I was scared at first because of what I went through previously. At that time, my self esteem was where it should be. I was so happy and so was my husband. I went back 1 to 2 years later to have another procedure, and again, the results were amazing. Because I was so happy with my 2 procedures that Dr. Reddy had done, I started talking about him and the work that he did, to my friends and anyone else that I ran into that was looking to have cosmetic surgery. Alot of them had procedures done as well. They too were very happy with the results. Dr. Reddy has performed several procedures on me and I cannot name one of them that I was not extremely happy with. His staff is great as well, very very friendly. My experience with him and his office over the past 10 years has changed my life drastically. I feel like I have had a full body make over, thanks to Dr. Reddy. I still continue to talk about Dr. Reddy and his practice anytime I run into someone that wants to have a procedure done and will continue to do so. I want people to have the same experience I did. One more thing that makes Dr. Reddy different from others, is he will tell you what to expect and how you will benefit from a procedure that you want to have. If he feels that you wouldnt benefit much from it, he will tell you rather than taking your money and doing it anyway. He is a very honest person and he will change your life, he did mine." M.
"Dr. Reddy took the time to understand what I wanted and delivered." S.W.
"As a tennis coach, I was always out in the sun. The sun damage especially in my cheeks was very bad. Dr. Reddy and his staff put me on Obagi along with a series of peels. I was amazed by the improvement. I wish I had Dr. Reddy take photos prior to the start as I would have liked the before and afters." T.C.
"I wanted you to know how pleased I am with the cosmetic surgery you performed. What a transformation. I remember when I first came into your office you saw me from afar and said what a pretty women. As I got closer to you, you told me my face does not match what you called my youthful personality! I had abused my skin through many years of being a sun worshiper!! I felt very comfortable with you and had no hesitation to go ahead and fix all the skin damage that I hated to see in the mirror every morning. Previous to my visit with you I consulted with 3 other plastic surgeons. I never felt comfortable with them so I continued to put it off. After the surgery I was brave enough to tell my sisters who lived out of town . They were appalled that I would do such a thing. Six weeks later I went home for Thanksgiving and they saw me for the first time since the surgery. Their comments were all the same; "where do I sign up?" I have recommended you to my friends and will continue to do so. Thanks you for making me look youthful again! I am now engaged to my high school sweetheart. Even though I know I do not look like he remembered me 37 years ago he honestly says I am more beautiful now than I was then. I think that has a lot to do with your artistic hands and love being blind!! You are my favorite Doctor!! Thank you!" C.C.
"I went to Dr. Reddy to correct my nose. I was not ready for surgery, and Dr. Reddy agreed that I did not need it. The radiesse that he gave me worked and I get compliments. I am very happy." B.A.
"I love my results and it really was painless. I had implants put in 10 years ago with another surgeon and it was extremely painful. I had to change out my implants and have a breast lift after two kids. You really are the best. My boyfriend thinks they are great also." M.T.
"After massive weight loss, I went to consult with Dr. Reddy regarding loose skin. Dr. Reddy was very patient in explaining the benefits and risks. The results surpassed my expectations, and I am very pleased." T.S.
"Dr. Reddy treated acne scars on my face and the results have been excellent. I don't feel that people are staring at me any more. Thank you." E.G.

"I felt younger after my treatement. After my treatment I looked at least 10 years younger. I will have treatment over and over." K.Y.
"I had very heavy upper lids that I needed repaired. Dr. Reddy made it look very natural, and I look much more refreshed now. His office worked with me to get reimbursed for the surgery. Definitely a good experience. He would be my go to guy if I need anything else or if a friend needs something." A.R.
"Was very pain free and the results were rejuvenating. took about a week to recover but the results were natural and long lasting. Needed to get a personal boost to face the decade of 55 to 65." D.S.
"Dr. Reddy performed liposuction on my abdomen and flanks. My down time was minimal, and I was surprised at the lack of discomfort/bruising/swelling. I'm very happy with the results and would highly recommend his services. Just as important as his ability, I found his manner along with the staff very comforting." A.J.
"Dr. Reddy performed a breast augmentation on me. Great job. I get raves and it has boosted my self confidence." B.A.
"He did a wonderful job!!!! Have had nothing but compliments on how good I look!! Office and staff were very professional, friendly and courteous!! Will go back for other procedures!!!!" K.
"Dr Reddy has a great team on his side and I personally know many of you have been there for a long time. I had liposuction done by Dr Reddy about 15 years ago. I went to 3 different plastic surgeons to check them out. I chose Dr. Reddy then because I felt he was the most sincere and loves what he does. And of course is very qualified. What mattered most was that I was confident in his ability to do what's best for me. I found that to be true 15 years ago and now again in 2011. Even more so now. This time I wanted to have my eyelids done. He made a suggestion after studying my face and pointing out how some neck lipo would make a drastic difference in my overall appearance. So i did, after all- he is the expert. And I'm glad I did cause that really did make a huge difference. Now I couldn't imaging if I took care of my droopy eyelids and left the droopy neck. (He is an artist and we are his canvas. ) Whenever I had a question, no matter what time of day, someone was always available to answer even if it was lunchtime. I have complete trust in Dr. Reddy and I always will." B.
"I was nervous about this but Dr. Reddy and his staff were extremely patient and explained everything to me. I was worried about the pain, but if wasn't painful! The results were stunning and lasted longer than 6 months!" C.B.
"Dr Kris Reddy in West Palm Beach did an excellent job. I did not feel a thing. He and his staff made me feel comfortable. I am planning on returning over and over for my treatments." K.Y.
"I went to Dr. Reddy after I had given birth. My breasts had bounced back well, but I need a little work on my body.Dr.Reddy recommended a mini tummy tuck and liposuction. I love the results. He has restored my confidence." M.L.
"I went to Dr. Reddy for a breast augmentation and liposuction. My experience with him was very positive. I have since recommended him to my mother who also had breast implants and one of my friends who has since went to him for liposuction. All were very pleased. I am now gonna go back for some liposuction of my neck and fat injections. My experience with Dr. Reddy has a very good one." C.
"I have never walked into a doctors office and been treated with so much respect and kindness. Dr. Reddy and his staff literally open up their arms and treat you like apart of their family. I have been beyond please with every procedure Dr. Reddy has performed. Thank You Dr.Reddy and staff!!" K.
"I saw Dr. Kris Reddy this year for a neck and mid face lift, upper and lower eyelids, and laser treatment for around my mouth and chin. He even repaired a split ear lobe that an earring had torn years ago! My surgery went very well, and the staff of women were very supportive. I had no visible scarring around my ears and within 15 days I was able to go back to work. Some people who I see every day didn't seem to notice much (just refreshed!), but people who hadn't seen me in a few months were saying "You look amazing! You look so much younger!" I am 62 and several people, men and women have guessed my age by 10 years younger. I love Dr. Reddy, he gives sensible advice, reasonable prices and is very caring. I recommended a friend a couple years older than myself and she went for a midlift and laser treatment with more procedures on her wish list!" E.C.
"Dear People Listen to Wisdom: I've asked myself in life, does beauty lie within, or are we inspired by the beauty to search the soul a person to find their inner beauty. Yes, deep within the soul of people we are inspired by the eyes that make a person sparkle, one's clear skin, one lack of the aging face, all gone. A gift, Dr. Kris Reddy brings to all that he helps, causing these souls to smile with their new reflections as seen in the mirrors. The mirror which speaks the truth. The love of life is in the essence of the soul that lies behind our face, I have felt this during my time of knowing Dr. Kris Reddy and experiencing this surgeon's special care of his patients. People smile at me when they see my pretty face, and they often begin the search to find my thoughts of life. So the mask I wear is beauty, and Dr. Reddy shares his wealth of experience to intensify this magical image. Dr. Reddy will make you smile again, as youth is brought back to your life with his gentle hands and experience with passion of making people light up with beauty. So, we all can experience what life offers, old and young alike. Sincere thanks to Dr. Reddy and his staff of warm hearted people who will give you time, attention, and listen to your thoughts and your visions. Thank you, Dr. Reddy, for sharing your skills and awakening my spirit so many times over the 20 years." J.
"Dear Dr. Reddy, As a professional artist, I am so pleased with the sophisticated SMAS and neck rejuvenation face-lift you so delicately performed with such artistic skills. I look in the mirror and see a youthful beautiful face, which reflects how I feel with my active lifestyle. Your friendly staff and nurses are so personal and professional. I am so pleased and happy with the surgical performance. You are an artist!"
Dr. Azar- My Favorite MD!!! I was a surgical patient at an outside hospital. I was very pleased with the entire process and the results. E.P.

I was extremely happy & nicely surprised with the surgical team, I felt very comfortable and calm. I believe this had a lot to do with the Anesthesiologist.

I'm very pleased & happy with the experience & results! D.M.

My experience at the surgical center was unlike anything I expected. This was my first surgery so I was extremely nervous about it. Dr. Azar explained everything to me and my husband before surgery and once again to me in the operating room. He made me extremely comfortable from arrival to departure. My family and friends can't believe how natural and beautiful I look. Best part of my recovery is looking and feel good. J.B.
I have never had a Surgery but it was better than I thought. The staff was friendly, the Anesthesiologist explained what he would do & how it works. Everything about the post-operative care was explained to me before my Surgery. Overall, I was very scared about having a surgery, but at the same time I knew I was in good hands. Thanks to Dr. Azar and the staff for everything! T.M.
I was scared about the surgery, but I knew I was in good hands. I am very pleased with my results, and the post operative care I received. Thank you for your great care. K.Y.

My rhinoplasty has truly made me so happy and confident. I LOVE IT! Thank you Dr. Azar! J.N.
Staff warm and friendly. They thoroughly explained the events to me. Dr. Azar had a great sense of humor. It was relaxing to see him calm and attentive. He explained everything he was doing. The post-operative care was well understood and I knew there was always someone I could call for help. I would highly recommend Dr. Azar. He was excellent. I have never felt more comfortable with a doctor. He seemed to truly care. Stephanie and Michelle at the front desk just made the whole experience less stressful. I love my results. Thank you!
"I talked to a variety of surgeons and found Dr. Churukian to be the most "human" -- he wasn't seeing me as another procedure but as a person with concerns and goals, and he worked with me. All of the staff gave this supportive impression. Other physicians would benefit by following Dr. Churukian's example." K.F.
"I just wanted to put in writing how much I appreciate what you have done for me. I feel wonderful every time I look in the mirror and I don't see that tired-looking face. I look and feel 15 years younger! I had no idea what an impact this would have on my life. How great it must feel to make such a big difference in people’s lives with your talent and skill. I'm so glad I found you!" S.D.
"I highly recommend Dr. Kirk Churukian and his staff. They are wonderful! From the first time I called to make an appointment for a consultation, I knew this was a first-class office. After meeting Dr. Churukian and his staff, I knew I didn't need to look any further. I had found the right surgeon. He and his staff answered all of my questions and concerns. My surgery went well and my recovery was EASY! The recipe for rapid recovery is awesome. And, the wonderful care I received didn't stop after my surgery was over. Anytime I have called the office with a question they have been great." C.L.
"The entire experience from the initial visit, to the surgery, to the recovery and post-op period, has been nothing but fantastic. Dr. Churukian, you were so patient during the initial consultation, answered all my questions and were so thorough about discussing realistic results, what I could expect in terms of pain (which, in all honesty, there was none), recovery and risks. The pictures of your work, your certifications and your realistic and calming bedside manner is what was my deciding factor in choosing you as my surgeon. It was the best decision I could have made!" S.A.
"After having consultations from two other doctors, I knew you were it. From the moment I called your office, I felt nothing but welcomed. Thank you for truly caring about me and not making me feel like "next!" You were so patient with me, answered all of my questions and prepared me more than I can imagine. Even on the way into the operating room, the nurse said, "You are with one of the best doctors." Need I say more?" T.M.
"While I had other friends who recommended other plastic surgeons, I was very comfortable with Dr. Churukian, the professional level of the staff, the quality of the work, the way the staff (all of them) really understood my concerns and put me at ease." S.S.
"To Dr. Pummill & Staff, Thank you for all the things you've done, I really appreciate it." D.
"Dear Dr. Pummill and Crew, A note of "thanks" for everyone making the big adventure of my life so much fun. You all made me feel like this is just the right thing to do. Dr. Pummill, God has blessed you with a great gift of listening. I appreciate how you take all my questions seriously and have respect for my moms questions. We've all been with doctors who do not seem to think of our concerns as important as they are, at least to us. Anyway, thank you. Also, I'm buying water balloons tonight - I have my b-cup bra - and I want to see what I'll look like! What a hoot! (hooters! I didn't say that?)" R.S.
"Dr. Pummill, Thank you so Much." B.D.
"Dr. Pummill, I can't thank you enough for the beautiful job you did for me. Now I know, I'll never have to be the person on the front on the front." J.
"To Dr. Pummill & Staff, I don't think there's enough room on this card to say to you all the nice things you've done. Thank you very much." D.S.
"Dear Dr. K. Pummill & Staff, (7 Ibs. "oh what a relief")! I'm really appreciative of all the kindness you've extended to me since during and after my surgery. I will never forget how you eased my anxiety concerning my surgery. The surgery outcome was magnificent! I'm very well pleased! I also wish to express my heartfelt thanks to: Julie, Casey, Laurie "Happy Sweetest Day" To you All!" Y.P.
"Dear Dr. Pummill, Just a quick thank you for all that you have done. You did a beautiful job and I am very grateful for everything. The bracelet that I made for you is crafted of antique Italian beads called "millefora" which means "a million flowers" in Italian. There are also swarovski crystals and sterling silver. I hope you enjoy wearing it!!" E.Z.
"Dear Dr. Pummill & all the Front Office Staff, Thanks for taking such good care of me and making me look and feel fantastic!" L.P.
"Dr. Pummill's office Staff, Thanks for taking the time to make me feel so comfortable! You helped in making the procedure a great success." C.
"Thanks so much for all that you have done for me." P.
"Thank you for all the ways you care."
"Dr. Pummill, Thanks so much for helping me with what was a scary diagnosis to having a better figure than before. You and your office staff have been great!" D.E.
"Dear Dr. Pummill, Thank you so much for your special care and kindness during my breast reduction surgery. Your approach to patient care was calming and comforting. You advised me from the very beginning that I would be pleased with the results and it would increase my self-esteem. My back pain is almost non-existent and I feel as though I can hold my shoulders back with pride. I'm excited for the first time in my life to buy a bra and I've already started to loose weight. I'd be sad not to see you and your office staff because you've made my experience so pleasurable. You all are such neat, great people. Thank you again Dr. Pummill for everything from the bottom of my heart and now slightly less top... it meant so much to me." A.B.
"Dr. Pummill, Thank you for the great work you've done! And congratulations on the baby!" M.B.
"Dear Dr. Pummill, Thank you for everything! You said that I'd be pleased with the results and I am! I just wish I had the courage to do this years ago! Thank you for your kindness, positive support and help during my recent surgery!" A.B.
"Dear Dr. Pummill, Thank you very much for your patients and understanding. I'm doing much better. I believe waiting was the correct choice. Good luck on the birth of your son. Laura, thank you for your support & comfort. I appreciate all you did." D.B.
"Doctor Pummill, I am writing about my wife, Sue's breast reduction surgery. Yesterday (Friday, January 4, 2008) for the first time I saw a complete, unopened view of the work you did. You did a wonderful job. Sue's breasts are so well-formed and the size is perfect. As far as the shape of her breasts is concerned, they look as shapely as when we first committed to each other twenty-five years ago. She was 28 years old at that time. Thank you so, so much for being able to do this for my wife. She is a great woman and deserves this." R.C.
"I have lived my whole life a size double AA through two pregnancies and breast feeding. At 32, I realized it was never going to change and after doing everything for everyone else as a mom and teacher it was time to do something for myself. My breaking point was this past summer when I realized I had to buy a bathing suit while on summer vacation, I sat in the dressing room crying because I hated my boyish body. I have said for years I look like a 12 year old boy. I am 5'6, 125 pounds and no boobs at all. I would have to go to great lengths to find a bathing suit that had stuffing so that I didn't look ridiculous. My friends would all say, you’re lucky you’re so small, but I never felt lucky at all." "Once a friend had encouraged me to do what was right for me, I decided to move forward with the surgery. As I pulled into the Gillian institute I dreaded going inside. I wasn't a person after perfection or looking HOT in a dress, I was a mom. However, from the moment I walked in I felt comfortable, supported and FINALLY understood. They knew how I felt and they treated me with kindness. As I started to tell others that my decision was made, some would remark, "my husband wouldn't like it if I did that, he would know they were fake so what's the point." My own husband’s response was, "Mount Rushmore is man-made, yet no less spectacular!" "Two things surprised me, first most people were supportive and humorous about it. I thought everyone would think I was crazy, instead they just wanted details. Second, I was annoyed with having to do pre-op pictures. I hate my body so much I am willing to go under the knife, why would they make me get pictures taken. Well, last week I returned and was given my six weeks post-op pictures with my pre-op pictures...I have to admit I stared in awe. I have begun to accept my new look so much I couldn't believe how I had looked for the past twenty years! I have never been so happy with a decision in my life I just wish I had done it at 25 when I finished having kids. My clothes fit, when I bend over you can't see to my belly button, bras aren't padded and I can't wait to step into the dressing room this summer for a new swimsuit!" "Thank you all for giving me, ME! I like my body for the first time in my life!"
"It was a wonderful experience, I am delighted with the results. The office personnel, nursing staff were great. Dr. K Short is the most knowledgeable caring and supportive doctor I have ever known. I can't say enough great things about her and her staff reflects that"
"For my first surgical experience, this was positive and comfortable. I would recommend Dr. Short to other women. I appreciate that she knew that every woman is different and recommended the appropriate course of action to help me get the look I wanted and helped me look my best."
"I appreciated very much the positive and negative being discussed with me. I didn't feel 'pressured' to go ahead with the surgery. I was made to feel that this was a personal decision to be made when I was ready. I appreciated all of your professionalism."
"I had heard wonderful things about Dr. Short from a friend and I agree 100% (undergoing) plastic surgery is a big decision and there are a lot of risks, but after talking with Dr. Short, Donna, and Erin I was sure this was definitely the office to have surgery. I am so happy with the experience and results! Thank you!"
"I am down from a size 12 to an 8 routinely, and occasionally a size 6. My whole life has changed. I am so happy!"
"I went from a size 10 to a size 4 with liposuction alone."
"Being surrounded with happy and friendly people made me look forward to my next visit."
"Everyone was courteous, helpful, informative and timely. I was made aware of a great many of things I'd never even considered when thinking of cosmetic surgery for myself."
"Very professional and loved everyone. I trusted Dr. Short's experience and her recommendations for me. I received the best care and more than I could have asked for. Very happy with the care and results.
"You changed my life. I never dreamed it would make this much of a difference in my life. I love the way I look now, and I never have before in my life. It has cascaded over into all aspects of my life. Thank you so much."
"I feel better than I have felt my whole life."
"They're perfect! My husband loves them. He keeps saying, 'Let me see them again.' And no one at work has even noticed. The size is great! I love my new bathing suit. I finally feel comfortable in a bathing suit...I love them!"
I loved it! Best thing I ever did for myself! I had Face & Neck lift, breast Aug and fat transfer. I interviewed 6 doctors before deciding on Dr Henry, she asked all the questions other Dr’s didn’t I feel as a women she knew more what a women wants and that made me feel very comfortable. Dr. Henry is always there for me no matter how many questions I have or how long I take. She is fabulous and I highly recommend her. K.S.
I had Rhinoplasty recently as well as a Tummy Tuck and Lipo the year before by Dr. Henry and I couldn't be happier! I love my new nose and so does my husband and kids it looks great and makes me look somewhat like a different person, younger if that is possible D.D.
Dr Henry is amazing.. I would recommend her to everyone! She always answers all my questions and won't do anything until I am absolutely sure of what. That is what you want in a plastic surgeon. J.C.
My experience with Dr. Henry and her staff has been very positive. The information the doctor gave me for my requested procedures was exactly what I needed to make my informed decision. I look better than I had ever expected. Friends that I haven't seen in months will be talking to me and stop mid-sentence to say, "OMG, you look great" And this is exactly what I wanted to have a noticeable improvement without looking "done". Dr. Henry listened to what I wanted and gave me excellent care. J.S.
Dr. Henry is a highly skilled plastic surgeon. She has a gentle and professional demeanor and is so easy to work with. She has three offices in and around the Bay Area, which makes scheduling my appointments extremely convenient. I would recommend Dr. Henry to anyone interested in cosmetic surgery. Her results are amazing you almost have to see them to believe them. A.W.
I had a breast augmentation about a year ago and she did an amazing job. I had some issues with one side being a little bit smaller than the other side and Dr. Henry was able to even them out and I am so excited with my new look! I would recommend her to anybody. R.M.
Dr. Henry just did a butt lift on me and OMG it is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! I look like Jennifer Lopez or Vida Guerra! I love it and the guys do to! Anyone who is thinking of having this procedure done should go to this lady because she knows what she is doing! C.L.
After having a couple kids by stomach looked horrible. I went to Dr. Henry and she was so sweet.....not at all like some of the male surgeons I've been to. I felt so comfortable with her and not to mention my tummy is so flat and pretty now. I can actually wear a bikini and not feel ugly in it. Check her out she's great! H.O.
Dr. Henry did Lipo on me about 6 months ago. I originally went to another Dr. and I didn't feel they did a great job. After meeting with her I knew right away I wanted her to fix my problem. I also did a fat transfer to my butt. It looks so good. I have an hourglass shape now and she is to thank! I keep looking in the mirror like hey girl you look good! lol. T.F.
Just want to let anyone know if they ever need a facelift to go to Dr. Henry. I saw alot of postings already and thought I would just join in. 🙂 I had a facelift about 2 years ago and it took literally 10 years off of my face. I am so thrilled to look the way I do. She would be a definite recommendation. K.P.
Dr Henry is an anomaly… she isn’t there to take your money she truly enjoys what she does and cares about her patients. If you don’t need something done she will tell you. E.A.
I have the butt I have always wanted, Thanks Dr Henry and staff! Y.S.
My breasts were so ugly before I didn’t even want my husband to look at them but since my surgery my confidence has gone up and I love my breast! I never dreamed they would look this good and so natural. All my friends and co-workers ask me about them and I am more than happy to tell them Dr Henry, she is a miracle worker! G.P.
Dr Henry changed my life! I.K.
Dr Henry’s work is so great you look very natural not like you just had plastic surgery. R.S.
Dr Henry takes pride in her work and patients. T.B.
Dr Henry changed my life. I’ve never been so happy. J.L.
The Staff is so friendly & knowledgeable you feel comfortable the moment you walk in. Beautiful office too. I.R.
I researched Plastic Surgeons for months and Dr Henry’s name kept coming up. I made my appointment and after meeting her I knew I picked the right doctor. I couldn’t be happier with my results! Not to mention her office is so beautiful you feel welcomed and relaxed. B.S.
Dr Henry is a genius. I look 20yrs younger! E.T.
Dr Henry is an artist! I never believed that I would look this good… I feel like a new person! My boyfriend calls me his new "trophy girlfriend" I love it! R.T.

"Dr. Vu, It's "very" hard to thank your Dr. properly while being counseled on proper bra selection & post-surgical massage. From me (& my family, esp. husband) - Thank you, Bless you - you are an angel. You "fixed" me weeks before other Dr.'s were willing to fit me in for a "consult". Forever Grateful (and family)" Ps. Yes: Excellent Job!
"Dr. Vu, Thank you so much for doing such a great job repairing my hand. I am able to surf & rock climb and do the things I love once again thanks to you. You are an outstanding surgeon." Much Mahola
"Dear Dr. Vu, I just wanted to thank you for wonderful change that you have helped create within my life and myself. I have always felt very confident and secure with every part of myself except for my breasts; I have always been small chested. Like so many other woman, after having my daughter and breastfeeding for a year I found that my breasts were smaller, lower and not all that firm anymore. I wore uncomfortable thick padded bras to hide the truth from others. I fooled them but I knew the truth, it haunted me and was on my mind constantly. When I met you for my first consultation I felt very confident about you. I felt comfortable and believe that you really listen and understand my goals and what I wanted. I am so happy with the work that you have done. My fiance' is very happy to! All of my family and friends say that my breasts look totally natural only perfect, like an airbrushed photo. I finally feel normal and completely beautiful, I can wear a swimsuit, a comfortable bra, sexy tops, anything and nothing. When I talk to people about it I always mention you. I have a couple friends considering breast augmentation and I insist that they see you. I also wanted to mention how much I enjoy your personality. I always tell people what a cool doctor you are. You talk to people like they are friends, not just patients. Its cool to go to a doctors appointment and be able to laugh, joke and talk like you actually know each other. Basically you are the best doctor/surgeon I have ever known or met and I am glad that I had the opportunity to be one of your patients." Sincerely your patient Ps. Your office assistants are great to, they always remember my name when I come in.
"Dr. Vu & Staff, Thank you for all that you have done to help me be a more confident woman. You have given me a brighter vision towards my future. With your help I now have more self-esteem to conquer my dreams." Most Thankful
"Dr. Vu, You are an awesome Doc. Thank you for my new boobs."
"Dr. Vu, I trust you! Thank you so much for reaching out for me and caring enough to help me - I trust your judgment - a small C is ok just try & keep 'em pretty for my hubby" Thanks

"I have had the pleasure of having Dr. Kim Chi VU as my surgeon two separate times. I was amazed and pleased with her attention and concerns for my health and also mental well being, before and after surgery, as it far surpassed any Doctor / patient relationship I had ever experienced. Not only did she do regular follow ups immediately following surgery, but she continued to follow up on the healing scars and surgery sight for the next year to come. Her understanding and gentle nature is what brought me back for my second surgery some years later. She also carries this kind of relationship through with her staff, which provides a calm and pleasant atmosphere for her patients. Whether it was helping me with pain management, or insurance issues, I have never experienced a Doctor who put in so much personal time to make sure my problems where resolved, as Dr. Vu has done. I would strongly recommend Dr. Vu to my family, and friends, because of her commitment to her patients, and my satisfaction with the work she has done for me. Having surgery can be a big decision, Dr. Vu always took the time to tell me I was beautiful inside and out, no matter what I decided to do. I have said so many times that not only is she my doctor, but she also feels like a friend. I am so grateful!!!" A.S.
"Dr. Vu was great with me during my consultation with her. She provided a lot of information for me, made it easier for me to understand about my breast surgery. I am so happy with how it turned out. Her staff was awesome." K.S.
"I chose Dr. Vu because she was open and easy to talk to, answered all my questins and gave me honest advice. She did such a phenomenal job on my tummy tuck that other physicians have complimented me on her work!" S.S.
"Working with Dr. Vu was the most amazing thing I've ever done. I'm a new person as a result of it. I felt good about myself before seeing her, but now I feel great about how I look. I referred some friends to her, and now they've referred their friends. I'd recommend her to anyone." C.N.
"My physician said it was the one to go to, and that seen patients with good results. I’m very glad I came here for my surgery! I am very happy with it!" M.T.
"Your office totally put us at ease and the result is amazing! We can’t thank you enough!" S.T.
"I’m very happy with my results, even after 1 month!" T.M.
"Dr. Griffith was very pleasant, and had a great personality, the other office Dr. did not." C.W.
"Dr. Griffith is great! He is very knowledgeable, caring, and professional. I am very happy with my surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Griffith."

"This card was written to express how I feel. You have given me back my self esteem and self confidence. My zest for life is in a whole new place. Your gift is a blessing. There is not another person on the planet who could have given me what you did. Thanks. P.S. I love the robe, thank you." D.O.

Dr Tehrani is caring and always honest. My life has changed since I have met him. I can finally wake up and be happy to face the world each and every day." M.M.
"I just wanted to inform you that although I have not returned for a visit, which I must schedule, my breast look amazing. You did a fabulous job, the areola looks so much more natural. The feel of the breast behind the muscle is so much more natural than before surgery. I have highly recommended you to my friends. I will come in soon so that you can take some after photos. Based on how I looked pre-surgery, the look of the breasts post surgery is enormous. Again, thank you for a job well done, I could not be happier with the result!!!" M.O.
"Your thoughtfulness was so wonderful, not to mention generous! I was taken back by your gesture and it just reinforces what a wonderful and sincere person you are, not to mention a fantastic doctor!" S.M.
"You are a true professional not only as a surgeon but as a warm caring person. Thanks for giving me confidence in myself and helping me feel better. Thanks to your staff for all their help & warm reception." A.M.

"Dr. Tehrani & Staff First I would like to thank you Dr. Tehrani for your patience and understanding and most importantly your honesty. To the office and medical staff you Ladies are just wonderful. I would recommend Dr. Tehrani any day of the Week. Thank you all.. Dr. Tehrani performed my breast reduction on Jan 19, 2009 a week before my birthday and I am completely satisfied with my results, not only did he just perform the work but after the surgery he called to check in to see how I was doing. Keep doing great things. The staff is so friendly, they make you feel warm and welcome as soon as you walk through the door. What a great Staff you have. My family and friends are just raving on what a marvelous job Dr. Tehrani did. I have no complaints, all compliments.. Thank you all." T.H.
"Dr. Tehrani & Staff To a great professional, knowledgeable and kind team!" R.L.
"Thank you for your outstanding care. I really appreciate all you did for me." A.F.
"I came to you requesting a flat belly and came out with not just that, but a fabulous new figure. I'm finally getting to wear all those great clothes that I couldn't "pull off" before. You really work magic and I am beyond thrilled with the results, which was a feat since I am a perfectionist who is "hard to impress" ! By far the warmest doc and team I've ever come across, you haven't seen the last of me!" K.S.
"Wishing you and your family a very happy Holiday. Oh by the way I'm still loving your work !!! God has given you a gift. Love your work!!!" P.M.
"Dear Dr. Tehrani, Just sending a quick note to let you know that your facility is outstanding. I had a surgery performed in September of last year and everything went very well. I was very pleased with your friendly staff and exceptional care. Feel free to use me for references. Thank you!" A.K.
"Thanks for all your hard hard work, support, laughter and new bod!" R.R.
"Just a small token of my appreciation. I wanted to thank you, Geri, and Tara for being so attentive, and generous with your time. I really appreciate all that you've done, you ladies have made the entire process amazing from start to finish. I really could not have imagined better results. Dr. Tehrani is nothing short of a miracle worker." J.C.
"Words cannot describe how much I LOVED the service I've received from your office. Thank You All." A.C.
"First and formost Happy Belated Birthday to the best Doc in the world. You are truely a wonderful man and I thank you so much for putting the smile back on my face by request of my son. This picture was taken on July 4th 2010 with my two brother in laws and I really felt beautiful all thanks to you and my 10 year old son." M.K.A.
"Mary wanted me to share this post-procedure portrait of the new her in felt tip markers by her 4 year old charge Gary. As you know of early child psychology, children first draw the most obvious and important features. Only as they grow older does their portraiture reflect more subtle human factors. Here Gary captured Mary as a stick figure with prominent head, eyes and mouth. Made even more prominent by the extra color and marker strokes are her newly enhanced breasts. They clearly made an immediate impact upon his psyche. Others notice the new Mary too ... physically and emotionally ...for she surely glows from all of your artistry. On one recent trip to New York City we were grid locked on the George Washington Bridge. Mary in scoop neck top and short skirt was curled up in the passenger seat. We would creep forward a few car lengths, then grind to a halt again. A truck in the lane adjacent to Mary kept exact pace with us even though his lane was completely free. He stopped when we stopped making no effort to complete the bridge crossing. Via driver-side push button I lowered her window, and the truck driver happily engaged her in conversation, calling her a "lovely lady." Once over the bridge he played tag with us in traffic all the way to Long Island. Daily Mary is complimented numerous times. I say it is not only because of actual physical enhancements, but also due to the new vivacious mood she projects, and even the fact that clothes fit better. Mary is please beyond words and I told her that I believe the procedures by both of you were the best quality-of-life enhancing investments we ever made. Thank you for your skill and care." T.K.
"I had my upper lids done and at first glance I looked like a frog with those bulging eyes you see. I could see for only short periods of time because I continued to ice morning until night. I had no pain or bruising. The staff are wonderful people. I felt truly cared for. They checked on me both morning and evening and Dr. Hasen checked on me daily as well, which really gave me a feeling of being secure as I was healing to know he cared enough to call. Would I choose him again if I have any other cosmetic surgery? Yes, most certainly. He is the only doctor I would want. Thank you doctor and staff."
"I believe this practice is the most up to date on the newest and best technologies and Dr. Hasen truly cares about his patients needs."
"The physician and aestheticians are very attentive and thorough. I feel the entire staff is of a very professional caliber. Questions and concerns are answered in a timely manner."
"Dr. Hasen cares for his patients, each individual at a time. He stays on top of the latest in procedures and products; providing you with a factual summary on each. He provides his professional guidance in helping you make informed decisions. His office is pleasant and relaxed as well as being supported by an excellent staff."
"I am a 51 year old female. I consulted with Dr. Hasen to "freshen up" my looks. I had some laxity in the jowl and neck area and my eyes always looked tired. Dr. Hasen recommended the Thermage treatment with BOTOX, Restylane, and an upper Blepharoplasty. We waited 9 months to see the results from the Thermage before doing the Blepharoplasty. The Thermage treatment helped my eyes and over-all appearance. For a non-invasive procedure, Thermage and Botox treatments have definitely exceeded my expectations."
"Dr. Hasen is truly a professional. He explained the procedure he was going to perform in a very thorough manner and welcomed questions that I had. His calm manner is very reassuring and comforting. Dr. Hasen has a wonderful bed-side manner. He follows-up with his patients after he has performed a procedure with a home visit in which he brings flowers. He is a one of a kind physician and master craftsman as a surgeon."
"Services Performed: MAJOR liposuction (thighs, buttocks, stomach) - I love my results and for the first time in my life I don't feel like I have to hide my body at the beach. I can now buy a pair of pants and not have to have them altered in order to fit. I am much happier overall with my body as a result. Big bonus points for coming to visit the night of my surgery!! Staff: WONDERFUL. I have never felt anything but like a friend coming into the office. Everyone is very friendly, professional and caring - even to the overly anxious like me."
"My nose was removed due to cancer in March, my daughters wedding was the first part of May. Dr. Hasen did a wonderful job reconstructing my nose and making it look as normal as possible in a very short amount of time. All the while noting that the most important thing was doing a great job and doing it right. I appreciated his hard work and honesty. He and his staff took a personal interest in my recovery being considerate of me and how I was feeling. It has now been 6 months since my first of three surgeries. Unless you look closely you can't even tell there was a time I had no nose. Dr. Hasen has done a very impressive job. Needless to say it was a traumatic experience and I would not have done as well if not for Dr. Hasen and his caring, considerate staff."
"I recently had a Blepharoplasty (excess skin removed from my upper eyelids) and it is the single best thing I have ever done for my personal appearance. I have never had so many compliments such as "You look terrific!" and I absolutely could not be happier with the outcome. I would trust Dr. Hasen with my life, and his staff is terrific - - professional, knowledgeable, caring - - everything you would hope for when having a surgical procedure. If you are considering a similar procedure and would like to talk to someone who has "been there, done that," please feel free to ask Dr. Hasen to tell you how to contact me by phone or by e-mail."
"Dr. Hasen made me feel comfortable at our first meeting. I was unsure of going through with the breast reduction. He put all my doubts at ease. The surgery was even a bigger success than I could imagine. I once again have "Beautiful Breasts" and my self-confidence is back. Dr. Hasen and his team changed my life. I can't begin to thank you for giving me my normal life back. I can walk the beach without feeling huge breasted. I feel like I am attractive again. Your surgery gave me what I needed to pick myself up again after my divorce and start over again, and start feeling more confident about myself."
"My husband and I are both physicians. When seeking for a plastic surgeon we wanted someone with exceptional credentials, who had great training and who was down-to-earth. Dr. Hasen was an easy find who had all of these things. I had breast augmentation and a tummy tuck (after having 9 kids and significant weight loss). I feel like I have regained my youthfulness by having surgery done. I have a renewed energy to my life. The most surprising reaction and the most pleasant comments came from my husband. He simply couldn't believe how great I looked afterward. He kept using the word amazing. He is so subdued and quiet normally I found it a double bonus to renew our romance in addition to improving my figure. I write about this because I hadn't read anything like this in testimonials before my surgery and it was a nice surprise others should know."
"I just wanted to write to tell you about an article I read in the paper about "What makes a great doctor". Well the first thing that came to mind was you, Dr. Hasen, and your wonderful staff. The comfort you give to your patients is truly outstanding. The support throughout my recovery was great! The overall results of my breast augmentation were unbelievable! The pain was so minimal and it exceeded all my expectations. My life is so wonderful now!! I wanted to thank you - Dr. Hasen and your staff - for all you have given to my life! Anyone thinking about having this procedure done, I would highly recommend you and your staff. You truly do care about your patients and give the time and effort they need to truly become the person they want to be. I believe you are truly the best at what you do! Thanks again!"
"It has been six months now since you performed the surgery to enhance my breast, and not a day has passed that I don't feel overjoyed with the results. You exceeded all of my expectations. I could not have hoped for better results. Before the surgery, I had quite a bit of anxiety regarding the outcome - mainly about how they would look. Well, they turned out perfect, in both size and shape!! Thank you so much for bringing me such happiness and for doing a wonderfully professional job. Also, I would like to compliment your staff for all the support they provided. They were very competent and responsive, and conveyed a genuine sense of caring about their patient. I always felt I could call any time with any question or concern and they would respond immediately. Again, thank you, Dr. Hasen, for providing me the best possible experience, in every aspect, with my surgery. You are the best!"
"I would just like to take a quick moment and express my gratitude for the procedure you performed on my daughter, Megan Christopher, last week. As her Father, I was more than nervous about her having this done. And, I was quite worried about the recovery period, especially with the press of late given to the less than professional practitioners that we read about in the tabloids. I will say that this entire procedure went incredibly well. Megan is recuperating nicely and the pain and discomfort has been minimal. Beyond that, I know that this will enhance her self esteem. As a school principal, I deal with young people regularly that have self esteem issues, so I know how important this procedure has been for Megan. I commend you for your skill level and professionalism. Thank you for making this "dream" a reality for my daughter."
"I saw the Butt Lift advertised on TV. Before, I never knew things like that were even possible! I had a dramatic weight loss which I was proud of ... but my butt was sagging. Not a pretty sight! I had the surgery 8 months ago. I can't believe how good I look! My girlfriend was absolutely right. She said 'Go see Dr. Stein and find out for yourself!' I'm so glad I did! I'm so happy - and I look SO good! " S.
"Yes! I finally did it! My baggy eyelids and double chin had been bothering me for years ... I never thought I'd do anything about them, but I did! There was very little discomfort - no overnight stay - I was home in a couple of hours and back to work in three days. And I financed it! I look ten years youngers - I wish I'd done it earlier. Thanks, Dr. Stein, and thank your terrific office staff for me." T.
"Dr. Stein and his staff are always there for you. All my questions were answered in layman's terms that were easily understood. Dr. Stein is very down to earth. He made me feel at ease - not like some doctors, where you feel that you are just another patient taking up their valuable time! Gina, his registered nurse, is always available - before and after the operation. She can be reached at any time. I think that this makes the patient more comfortable, knowing that someone is a phone call away. A call that is returned promptly, day or night. My recovery from all my surgeries has been fairly painless. I felt discomfort more than pain. I am very happy with the results. I would not have returned for more surgery if I were not happy! My face has no visible scars. My skin looks youthful from the laser procedure. I have had no complications, and I feel great! People constantly ask me who my doctor is, when they learn that I've had cosmetic surgery. My husband has had lipo and a necklift. My girlfriend has had Dr. Stein perform lipo. Both are pleased with the results. I have absolute and full confidence in Dr. Stein and his capable staff. I would recommend him to anyone seeking cosmetic plastic surgery." B.
"I came to see Dr. Stein with only a dream of what my body could look like again after 3 children and 2 c-sections. I had developed so many feelings of insecurity. Dr. Stein gave me back the body I once had! He changed my life. It's true! I feel like such a happy and grateful person. I'm a happier and healthier Mom - and wife - because I feel SO great! Forever thank you, Dr. Stein!" P.
"I'm a guy who has been very careful all my life with diet and exercise. Now I know that some stubborn areas of fat cannot be eliminated naturally - without the help of Dr. Stein. After a couple hours of surgery, I was back on my feet. I'm telling you, this will really change your image of yourself. I was never REALLY fat. But areas of fat that I couldn't get rid of - no matter what - are gone! Do it now! Don't wait!" M.
"I thought about it for years and watched all the TV programs I could find. Finally I went to Dr. Stein for a consultation - that was the first step! Dr. Stein and his office staff made me feel so good ... and so well taken care of. My tummy tuck and liposuction changed my life! I went from a size 14 to a size 10. I'm talking about an EXTREME makeover ... and EXTREME satisfaction! Love," T.
"Dear Dr. Stein, How can I ever thank you? After nursing two kids, my once beautiful full C cup breasts were sagging! I guess I never realized that could happen. A simple breast lift has made me feel SO good! I am happy to tell everyone - I only needed one week to recuperate and I was back in the car pool the second week. I had no real pain - just a little discomfort initially. But was it worth it! My husband brags about how great I look! I'm so glad to have my old self-confidence back. I'm looking forward to summer and taking the kids to the pool again. You're the greatest, Dr. Stein. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" J.
"Breast augmentation absolutely changed my life! I am 30 years old, and have spent many years feeling inadequate in my size A cups, wearing wonder bras and padded bras. After careful consultation with Dr. Stein, I finally made the decision to have beautiful breasts. That 1 1/2 hour surgery has made such a change in how I feel about myself! I am no longer hiding in corners. I wear pretty clothes - beautiful lingerie and bathing suits - with my head held high! Thank you for your guidance and skill, Dr. Stein!" M.L.
"Dr. Odinet, Just a few words to tell you all how you made me feel so at ease for my procedure." S.
"Dr. Odinet and Staff: Thank you for the trouble you went through with my insurance? I appreciate your perseverance. You are all SO KIND and personable! That's hard to find these days!" K.B.
"Dr. Odinet, Oh how I greet you with great joy and gratitude. You are an amazing man, father, husband, employer and friend. Your talents, smile, words and support has blessed me and my family and I thank you. I hold a picture of you in my mind and close to my heart. Please inform your staff and family that I said, "Thank you for sharing him with me.” You are awesome. May God bless the work of your hands and bring you all great joy." B.D.
"To Dr. Odinet and Staff:. I want to sincerely thank you and your staff for the generosity that was extended to me while under your care. I previously had made contact with another doctor regarding my breast augmentation. I felt as if I was just someone wasting his time so therefore, I opted to forgo that doctor. However, upon recommendation from my cousin's OB/GYN doctor your name was highly recommended. Well, I immediately scheduled an appointment and was pleased beyond measure from the person answering the phone, taking my payment, scheduling my appointments, consulting with the nurses, the after care treatment, and the honesty and care of Dr. Odinet. Now, to mention my results after my surgery, oh they (breasts) are just unbelievable. I am forty years old and a mother of four who needed some help. Well I'm still a forty year-old mother of four but let me tell you, no one, I mean no one would ever guess that I had four children. So therefore, I truly thank you, Dr. Odinet and your staff. May God continue to bless your business with much prosperity and grace! Just for you to know, I have and will always highly recommend that when one is considering surgery, Dr. Odinet and his staff is the one." T.R.
"I’m Latina, 48, working for the public administration in NYC. Coming from a country where the practice of plastic surgery is questionable, for me was very important to treat with a surgeon that possessed the proper credentials and experience needed for this discipline. After I consulted with Dr Francis, immediately I knew that he was a Doctor highly professional, ethical and qualified. He gained my trust with his patient, receptivity to my questions and concerns, but above all when I told him that I wanted to have a procedure done, that he understood that I did not need it at that moment; He did it three years later. All procedures were, in a very detailed way explained to me, first, verbally by Dr. Francis including risks and complications; follow it by a pre-operative package and post-op instructions. The administrative personnel, specifically Rochelle is excellent; with her assistance the whole thing was more easier, since she made sure that everything was in order by the day of my surgery (medical appoints, lab work, financial arrangements, emergency contact, etc). She programmed my post surgery visits in a way that made feel comfortable and protecting my privacy. The office of Dr. Francis combine professionalism, technology, a highly qualified staff, (medical and administrative) with a friendly environment that made me feel that I was among family. I'm very happy with the results since Dr Francis did not "plasticize" my face but relaxed it; I Could say that I'm myself, just with a fresh aspect, which was what I wanted. I recommended Dr. Francis and staff to my family and friends and I would recommend him to anybody that is looking for quality and caring professionals." C.
"I wanted more Butt in my back and didn't know how. My friend went to Dr. F for a breast augmentation and I loved her results, so I tried him out. The staff is amazing as is Dr. F. He sat down and took a look at how much fat I had and talked about how my goal butt will look like. I had the surgery about a month ago and I am so thrilled to see my results! He did an amazing job while keeping me look natural. I will recommend him to anyone I know. Thank you." S.M.
"I am a nursing professor in a NYC based university. Dr. Francis recently excised a rather large cyst from my upper back. I tend to be an anxious, high-strung person, so I was pretty nervous before the procedure. My experience with Dr. Francis and his staff was wonderful; Dr. Francis has restored my trust in physicians. He is gentle, caring, patient, approachable, competent, and treats the whole person. Dr. Francis answered all of my questions clearly and completely and patiently alleviated each of my pre and post-op concerns. I received local anesthesia and was conscious for the procedure, and he continuously assessed my comfort level and gave me emotional reassurance and progress reports throughout its duration. Furthermore, Dr. Francis was readily available to me via telephone immediately post-op, if I experienced any complications and/or had any concerns. Gratefully, my post-op recovery was exceedingly smooth. I would return to Dr. Francis in a heartbeat for further healthcare. I have already highly recommended him to friends, colleagues, and loved ones. He and his staff (especially Anela) are the greatest!!!"

"I can't believe how good Dr. Francis is! He is a gem and I can't wait till i show my results to my mom and sister. I know they will run to him! He is a man of few words, but his work is TOP NOTCH! Anela is the rock and face of his office! I would of backed off of the surgery in fear, but she made me so much comfortable and I trusted her. Glad I did!" S.R.
"Dear Dr. Clark, Thank you for everything you have done for me! Your staff is wonderful & I feel GRAND!!!" T.M.
"Dear Doctor Clark: I couldn't be more grateful that I am so blessed to have found you. The work that you have done so selflessly to help so many has made an everlasting impression on me. I hope to express that endless gratitude - from myself & all of those you've helped!" J.H.
"Dr. Clark, I cannot put into words the gratitude I have for you and your terrific staff of professionals! I have discovered a new-found sense of self-confidence and I have never felt better in all my life. I have absolutely no regrets and am pleased with the results. You are such a caring and compassionate physician and you totally understand what my desires were. You always listened to me intently and made me feel as if I was the only patient you had to see that day; although I know that wasn't true. Dr. Clark, I will always be grateful to you and will never forget what a wonderful experience I had with you, Connie, Sylvia, and all the kind and thoughtful ladies that work with you. "Happy Holidays." For the first time ever I can relate to the female snowman on the front of this card, and I totally have you to thank for that! Enjoy the holidays and just know you made one girl feel like a million dollars!" J.
"Dear Dr. Clark, I am most overwhelmed by your sincere (an inconceivable) kindness by coming to tend to me at home the evening of my surgery. They just don't produce doctors like you - and I for one, am thrilled to have found you! I respect and admire your ethics as well as your work, and consider you a friend as well. There is no doubt in my mind you will be a thriving practice very quickly due to all the things you do right. Damn, you're good girl! Honestly, there isn't a card big enough to thank you - first and foremost - for your kind & gentle professionalism, your thoroughness to detail, warm & generous spirit... did I mention anything about your surgical skills?"
"Hello Dr. Kauffman! "They" look Great!!" N.
"Dave, Thank you so much for the 52 year tune up!! My back also thanks you." L.
"I would like to express my gratitude for your medical expertise and your commitment to providing excellent patient care with compassion and courtesy in a friendly environment. I am delighted with the results of my abdominoplasty. Not only has the procedure improved my self-image; it has also inspired me to adopt a healthier lifestyle. A special thank you to Sylvia, Connie, Kimberly and Kate for the support and kindness they have shown me since my first visit to your office." L.
"For all your time & extra TLC. I am truly grateful." A.
"Hi Maureen! I just wanted to take a minute to say "Thank You" for our session on the 22nd. My skin is amazingly beautiful after just that one session! I'll see you again in a few weeks." N.
"Just wanted to say Hi and thank you again (my face feels great!) and glad you are back!!! Sure seems like a "wonderful" office and opportunity! You deserve it!!!" L.
"Dr. Kaufman, I feel like I owe you a huge hug. You gave me the self worth I was looking for, even though you may think I'm off (no I'm not still on pain meds) Ha, Ha! You and your staff were so supportive from beginning to end, you made my nose job so much easier. My wife noticed how I make eye contact with people and I feel confident and secure with my appearance. I also wanted to thank your staff, they made my visits and D-Day go as smooth as they could have, especially RN. Sharon, she made me feel very comfortable the day of surgery." J.
"Dear Kathryn - Thank you so much for everything! You are a wonderful person! I can't tell you how much it meant to me to have someone like you there to help me through everything! Thank you so much for the cute candle set, I love it! See you soon! Dear Staff - Thank you for everything! You all have been huge help. I hope to see you all soon! Dear Dr. Kaufman - I really can't thank you enough for all that you have done! You have changed my life & I greatly appreciate it! You are such a great doctor and I will send as many people as I can your way! Thank you for so much, for everything. Best of luck with the new office! See you soon!" J.
"(There's a country song somewhere in here... I just know it!) I ain't tellin' ya'll no lies, It's hard to thank ya for my thighs, And breast not down to knees, And a tummy that doesn't flap in the breeze - Unconventional as it all may seem, Forever my face will surely beam, when down on my bod, I catch a stare and remember all of you were always there - And remember all of you were always there, So now I bid you all adieu, But don't go away feeling blue - For all of my life and all of my days, I will carry ya'll in my heart for always!" S.
"Dr. Clark, I hope you never need a tummy tuck, but if you do, I hope your doctor is as good as mine! Thank you so very much!" L.
"Dear Dr. Kaufman, I just wanted to thank you and your staff for such a wonderful experience. I was so nervous about having breast implants, but you all made me feel so comfortable. I know that it is a very common procedure, but it has totally changed my life. My clothes have never fit so well (even before having kids!). You deserve major kudos for a job well done! I look forward to coming back when I am ready to get my tummy tuck done! Thanks Again!"
"Dear Dr. Kaufman, Thank you so much for doing a fantastic job! I love, love, love my new boobs! You went out of your way to answer all my questions (before "and" after surgery), and your staff was always so helpful and supportive. My new body has given me such a boost in confidence. Thank you so much for everything. Best regards."
"Dr. Kaufman and Staff, Thank you so much for your kindness during my recent surgery. From my first call to the office, I have experienced only the utmost of caring and professionalism with each visit, pre and post-op." T.R.
"Dr. Clark and Staff, I cannot express how pleased I am with my results from my surgery. Your office exudes such class and professionalism and I was treated with a level of care and respect that I have never experienced before from a medical office. Dr. Clark, your sincerity and care for me will never be forgotten. Everyone made me feel so calm and at ease whenever I made a phone call or walked in the door. I know I made the best choice for my recent surgery!" J.K.
"Dr. Kaufman and staff, Thank you so much for making my experience so wonderful. You are all truly wonderful, helpful, and fun." K.Y.

"Dr. Kaufman, Please pass along to your staff what a great job they do! It's a sensitive process having cosmetic surgery, but your staff made me feel so safe and secure. I wasn't even nervous - I knew I was in the best possible hands. I'm thrilled with the results. You guys are really the best!"
"Dr. Kaufman, What a change! I still can't believe it when I look in the mirror... I'm still myself, but it's as if the clock got turned back 10 years! Thanks to your wonderful staff for making me feel so special... and thanks to your hard work. I'm just thrilled!" L.J.
"Dear Dr. Kaufman and Staff, I lost over one hundred pounds after my gastric bypass, but I was actually less happy than when I was heavy. Many of you spent time with me explaining my options and were very emotionally supportive. By the time I had surgery, I was so ready to shed the stigma of my former self. The surgery went great and I'm literally half of my former self, but twice as happy. The body lift restored my confidence and made me emotionally whole! You all worked wonderfully as a team and made me feel like the star. Thanks again for the wonderful care. I just can say enough wonderful things about you!" E.B.
"Thanks Dr. Kaufman for the wonderful job you did... during surgery, before and after! You took the time to explain everything to me and that made the recovery very easy. There were no surprises. I'm absolutely THRILLED with my new breasts! I'm wearing clothing with confidence I could have never imagined before. Your staff was so supportive and caring that I felt like I was with family. I've already recommended a friend to see you. You're a talented surgeon and a warm, doctor. Thanks again!" J.S.

"Dear Dr. Hapcic and Staff, Thank you all so much for the kind, gentle, and professional way you've treated me through this breast augmentation process. You all have such a personal touch.

What felt a little large at first has turned out to be absolutely perfect for me." J.T.

You have all be so attentive and intuitive. I am so pleased with my results. And thrilled!

"Dr. Hapcic, Thank you for getting the earring out of my ear. I am very grateful! Thanks again!"
"Dear Dr. Hapcic and staff, I was in your office on Monday, March 13, 2006, for a consultation. I wanted to extend a thank you to all of you for your friendliness and professionalism. I especially appreciate the time that was taken to discuss my concerns and the possibility of eliminating the pain I’m now experiencing. Dr. Hapcic, your kindness and compassion meant so much to me. I have felt abandoned by the surgeon who performed my breast reduction surgery and at a loss of where to turn next. You and Debbie provided me with hope that there may be alternatives to the unacceptable outcome of my surgery. I look forward to having the therapy you recommended and hope so much that it will relieve me of the pain I endure daily. I will return to your office within a month or so and at that time discuss the possibility of a breast augmentation. Never in my life did I imagine I would be considering breast augmentation, especially after just having a breast reduction. No matter how much I researched the procedure and checked out the surgeon the results still ended up being unsatisfactory and poorly performed. Thank you again for giving me your time and truly being concerned and helpful. It meant the world to me to know that I won’t have to go through the rest of my recovery alone."

Dear Dr. Horton, I felt really taken care of and very supported. The results were fantastic! The doctors were helpful with choosing the right size of implants. It turned out perfect! Sincerely, M.M.
Dear Dr. Horton, I cannot tell you how thrilled I am with the result! C.R.

Dr. Horton, The doctor works ‘magic’! Her staff is excellent. I felt taken care of at every step of the process. I couldn’t have dreamed of better breasts. They are exactly what I wanted. The doctor took a lot of time to explain the procedure to me on our first consult day. I loved the all female office. D.J.
Dr. Horton, "My first visit to the office I was told I would receive excellent care. That was wrong. I received extraordinary care!” Sincerely, D.W.
"My experience with Dr. Dhir and Rhinoplasty went better than I expected. At first, I was very nervous going through the procedure and the whole thought of plastic surgery. When I went in for a consultation, right away the staff made me feel comfortable and told me it's normal to be scared. Dr. Dhir and staff were very friendly and didn't hesitate to answer any questions I had. On surgery date, I felt well prepared and educated on the procedure. I was still nervous but I didnt feel a thing during surgery. After surgery, the nurses took care of me and I went home to rest. I am very satisfied with my results of rhinoplasty. I told Dr. Dhir what I wanted my nose to look like and he did just that. I wanted my nose to look natural and he made it that way. I am glad that I finally did something for myself. I would gladly recommend Dr. Dhir to my friends and family." G.G.
"Ever since I was a little girl I was always self conscious about my nose. The reason why I felt that way was because I had a big hump on my nose, and it was big for my face. When I was little people always made fun of me for that reason and made me embarrassed, uncomfortable and it caused me to become real self conscious about myself. When I finally decided to get my nose operated, I was afraid of picking the wrong Doctor; and I was afraid of my nose looking worse, or not liking it. When I walked in the surgery center I heard about Dr. Dhir and how he was really good with surgeries of the nose. So I decided to pick him. I was afraid; although people told me he was a good surgeon. Finally the day of my surgery came and I was so happy that the results were great. I was able to tell the big difference right away. My hump was not there anymore and my nose was wow… great!!!!! I LOVED IT!!!!! And I couldn’t be HAPPIER!! !! This amazing doctor changed my life for good. I am no longer feeling self conscious about myself or embarrassed. Now I feel confident about myself and very happy. I thank god I found such an outstanding and amazing surgeon. Thank you Dr. Dhir. I couldn’t be happier!! You did an amazing job." A.R.
"Getting a nose surgery has been something I have wanted to do since I can remember! Finally at the age of 22 I was able to start looking for doctors and get the surgery done. I went to several consultations in Canada and none that I felt comfortable enough with. I had family in Los Angeles so I decided to travel to the states and since it’s the surgery capital- at least, give it a go for a few consultations. Let me start by saying, some doctors can be a real work of Art when it comes to their attitude and how they treat a patient! One of the doctors I had a consultation with charged a ridiculous amount for a surgery -for the reason he was known to be a really good doctor ... After I walked out of the consultation I wanted to just forget about my surgery period! He was so rude and didn't even ask for what I felt was wrong with my nose and only gave his opinion. I was beginning to lose faith and didn't think I'd be able to find anybody who I felt comfortable enough with to do the surgery for me; and there it was! My next consultation was with Dr.Dhir. He was so sweet and kind. He took all the time I needed at the consultation to talk to me and make me feel comfortable. Asked me all the things I wanted and told me what he thought would be best. After talking to him for half an hour I walked out knowing for a fact I'm going to choose him and had trusted everything he had told me and I definitely took his advice about how I wanted the surgery to go. The next day I left a deposit and made a date for the surgery. I flew in To LA from Canada and got the surgery done. I have never been happier and I breathe better than I did before the surgery. It went great and he gave me and my family all the emotional support we needed and more. I personally vouch for Dr.Dhir’s work and know that he will do nothing but the best and put all the time in the world that's needed to make a patient feel comfortable. I have referred him to several friends and family and I am waiting for my sisters 18th birthday to also have her surgery be done by him! He is the best doctor and the only person I would trust with a facial surgery. He takes his work and his relationship with his patients extremely serious and passionately and is a perfectionist. He has made sure to follow up with me even 3 months after my surgery and has asked me to keep in touch even up to a year. His amazing and you cannot go wrong by choosing him as a surgeon! Dr. Dhir thank you so much for everything. Every time I look in the mirror or see a picture or a reflection of my face, I only think of how lucky I was to have had you as a surgeon and how happy I am with the outcome!" S.S.
Dr. Bunkis, I never got a chance to thank you for the help I received from you back in January of 1985. Gratitude for your work on my hand has been with me throughout the past years. During that night on January 20, 1985, fear raced through me at the thought of never again doing what I loved: playing football. I believe, through the grace of God, you and many others were put into my life to help me along. Since that time, I was able to go to college and graduate in secondary education. I played football for five years at B.Y.U. without any limitations in my left hand. I signed with the N Y Giants and was released in 1990. Today I am a teacher and football coach. I just wanted to say thank you and let you know I appreciate what you did for me. Thank God I don't play the guitar, because I still have very limited dexterity. Other than that, my hand is in no way limiting. Thanks again. M.B.
I'm originally from another country and it appears that in my family we all share the same family trait -- bags under the eyes. I had them, so did my brother, and they made us look sad. Having cosmetic surgery to remove the bags became an easy decision for me. I trusted and liked Dr. Bunkis from the minute I met him. I knew he would do a great job and he did. In fact, it was so good that when my brother saw my pictures, he flew in just to have surgery on his eyes as well. Now we both look happy - like we feel! Over the past ten years, Dr. Bunkis has performed several other procedures for me. Everything he has done has provided me with a spiritual lift, as well as a surgical lift. I have had my breasts reduced and my tummy tucked, as well as facial cosmetic surgery including a facelift and forehead lift. Ten days after my facelift, I attended a wedding. I had no bruising, minimal swelling, and everybody thought I looked at least ten years younger. Some people even said I looked younger than the bride! But to me, having cosmetic surgery isn't really about looking younger - it's about looking the best that you can for your given age! Now it's my daughter's turn to have surgery. After providing me with two grandchildren, her tummy isn't quite what it was so I have recommended that Dr. Bunkis help her out with surgery as well. I can't think of anybody else that I would trust to operate on my daughter! She is the most special thing in my life, but I know Dr. Bunkis will use his unique skills to ensure that she has the safest and most successful surgical outcome. D.E.
When I first visited Dr. Bunkis twenty years ago, it was with the intent of having a breast augmentation, but I chickened out at the last minute. Don't ask me why. I don't know. I just did. Instead I told Dr. Bunkis it was my lips that concerned me, that I wanted them bigger. It was true actually. I really didn't have much of a top lip. So Dr. Bunkis put collagen into my lips and I left that day with the most voluptuous smile! I also left with a smile in my heart. Dr. Bunkis could see how nervous I was about meeting with a plastic surgeon but he did his best to make me feel comfortable. His approach felt so honest that it was only a matter of weeks before I plucked up the courage to go back for another consultation. This time for my dream surgery - breast augmentation. My breast surgery turned out to be perfect. As well as the caring staff and high level of integrity that Dr. Bunkis held within the community, it was the personal and human approach I was given during my decision making process that made my surgical experience a pleasant one. I met with several patients who shared their personal stories with me. Meeting them reassured me that I was making the right decision for myself. Since then, I have also had liposuction and my upper eyelids done. I'm no longer afraid of cosmetic surgery. In fact, since I first met Dr. Bunkis, I have referred over 150 people from my salon in to his office for consultation. He is such an excellent surgeon and an honest man. In my book, I couldn't ask for anything more. D.R.
Tom and I are very active people. We're both certified Scuba Divers, we hike and roller-blade, and ride our bicycles 40 miles each week. But, no matter how hard I exercised, I could never build the muscles in my calves and this really bothered me. Finally, I decided to do something about it - surgically. I called around and met several doctors who performed calf implant surgery. After much deliberation, I decided to go with Dr. Bunkis because I liked him the best. As it turned out, that was the best decision I could have ever made and it became the beginning of a friendship that has lasted almost ten years. I say friendship because I truly do consider Dr. Bunkis to be my friend. My calf implant surgery was so successful that nobody would ever guess that they weren't real muscles - even the masseuse at the gym! But it was when my breast implants ruptured (old ones that were implanted by another surgeon many years prior) that Dr. Bunkis displayed both the skill and artistry that define his reputation. The silicone had ruptured and migrated and Dr. Bunkis literally had to remove it, piece-by piece, without damaging any of the natural breast tissue. He replaced the ruptured implants with newer ones that have stayed soft and wonderful ever since. Over the years, I have visited the office on several occasions, more recently for a facelift and eye tuck. My husband even had his eyelids done. We both feel that we look young for our age, which is great because we feel young for our age! Now the outside radiates what we both feel inside. I went for a job interview recently and was hired for a position that would generally be given to a much younger person. That was the best compliment I could have ever been given. Dr. Bunkis is really an artist. I have always been comfortable about having surgery. I've never worried about the outcome because I have always known that he would do his best, because he is the best. L.D.
"I just wanted to say how pleased I was with the procedure I received from Dr. Gottlieb. He really listened to my desires and I have been so happy with the results. I have recommended him to every one I know. I was very impressed with his skill and the experience as a whole. Even when I had some complications he was so helpful and able to answer my questions. Thank you to everyone who made my experience a positive one." S.B.
"Dear Dr. Gottlieb, From the moment of my first consultation, I felt secure and confident that I had made the right decision to have breast augmentation surgery, and that I had chosen the best surgeon and staff to enhance my needs. You and your staff provided me with much needed information about my procedure as well as any questions, concerns, or fears that I had at the time. I entered this decision to have surgery with the notion that this was going to be a huge procedure followed by pain, as do many people when they have an operation. I could not have been more wrong. First of all, this was the best decision I could have ever made for myself and I am thrilled with the results. The surgery was a piece of cake and was over before I knew it. Given the chance to do it all over again, I would do it in a heartbeat! You made my experience extremely positive - everyone took such good care of me! Thank you for everything, and I would like you to know that I would recommend you to anyone!" F.H.
"I was very pleased with everything to do with my surgery - from the consultation until now, 6 months after the surgery. Everyone at Dr. Gottlieb's office treated me very well and seemed to go out of their way to make sure I was happy. I would recommend Dr. Gottlieb to friends or anyone who might be interested in breast augmentation." D.G.
"I recently received services from Plastic Surgery Seattle and Dr. Jourdan Gottlieb and wanted to share information regarding my experience. First, I would like to share that I spent several months conducting research to ensure I understood all of my options, procedures and associated impacts of this type of surgery. It was very important to me that I was making the most informed decision before proceeding with the process. In addition to what I had researched, Dr. Gottlieb and staff provided me with additional details to educate me and assist me with making this important decision. Dr. Gottlieb performed several procedures for me (tummy tuck, liposuction in two areas). After having 2 cesarean section births,d there was quite a bit of work needed to get the results I was looking for. My expectations have been exceeded and I am extremely happy with my results. Dr. Gottlieb and his staff (Anna, Danika and Shelly) were incredibly professional, thorough and supportive throughout the entire process. Every step from scheduling, consultation appointment, surgery and all post operative support were nothing short of stellar. It is clear to me that they have a genuine desire to ensure their clients are satisfied and that their concerns and questions are addressed appropriately. I feel completely confident in their abilities. There are several friends/colleagues that I have and will refer to their office for similar procedures. I have no doubt that they will have the same level of satisfaction and will experience the outstanding level of service that I was provided. Thank you so much for taking such great care of me and making what could have been a very stressful experience, pleasurable." J.O.
"I am writing this letter in order to share the experience I have had with Dr. Jourdan Gottlieb. When I first started looking for a Plastic Surgeon to perform my breast augmentation, I was extremely picky and very selective. I wanted a doctor, staff, and environment with which I felt comfortable and at home. After six different consultations with various surgeons, I saw Dr. Gottlieb. From the moment I walked in until the time I left until the time I left from my consultation, I felt positive that this was the doctor and staff I trusted enough to perform the surgery that would change my life. I had the surgery done almost a year ago, and could not be happier with the results. The treatment and care I received from Dr. Gottlieb and the staff was phenomenal. Any questions or concerns I had prior to the surgery or after the surgery were always welcomed and answered with the highest quality. I would definitely recommend, as I have already, to anyone, to anyone considering this surgery to use Dr. Gottlieb because of the genuine way he deals with his patients and exceptional service he and his staff provide each individual. Thanks again for the great results!" P.B.
"I'd like to start by saying what a wonderful experience I've had with Dr. Gottlieb. I was sort of frightened about getting my surgery, but Dr. Gottlieb and his staff made me so comfortable, and offered answers to my questions any time I had one to ask! All of the information they provided was very easy to understand, and very to the point. The day of my surgery, I was so excited to see everyone! They are very personal, more like friends than a medical staff. I felt as if I was enjoying myself at a spa, rather than getting surgery! I have already referred Dr. Gottlieb to a couple of "serious" people and will continue to do so." K.C.
"I felt compelled to write a letter of appreciation for the service I received as a client of Dr. Gottlieb and his staff. Initially, I had had a physical exam and consultation by three different reputable plastic surgeons, including Dr. Gottlieb. I chose Dr. Gottlieb because of the friendly professional attitudes from the receptionist to the surgical nurses. I felt I was having a shared experience. After having the good fortune to breast feed two babies, I had almost no breast volume left. For years afterward, I felt self-conscious, even with my husband. I used external breast enhancers, but I was uncomfortable in locker rooms and even medical exams. I only ever spoke of my feelings to my husband and my closest friend, and neither one understood how it affected me. After my first visit and consultation with Dr. Gottlieb, I felt confident that breast augmentation would put all of those feelings of having inadequate breasts behind me. I found out that I was not alone and that many women feel strongly about their self-image and have the courage to make changes to feel better about themselves. The surgery was almost two years ago and I still feel it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I don't even think about the enhancement, as such, because it is so much a part of me now. I am truly happy with the results. I feel I'm height/weight proportionate and I have a more confident self image. I am forever grateful to Dr. Gottlieb and his staff, and I would be happy to give support and testimony to anyone considering this type of enhancement." S.J.

"I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Rubinstein socially. I had never really considered plastic surgery but joked that I wanted my stomach removed (that which was leftover from two pregnancies!). Even in a social setting, Dr Rubinstein spoke and explained what I could expect from a tummy tuck both in amount of discomfort and pain and long-lasting results I was thrilled immediately with the results. One uncomfortable weekend has led to almost five years of a boost to my self-confidence about my appearance. I no longer worry about bending over and having my stomach flap. I have a flat stomach, curves in my waistline, thanks to Dr Rubinstein. I am even considering my next procedure with him!" A.R.
"I was referred to Dr. Rubinstein by a friend who had seen him and was very happy with her results. I was unhappy with my abdomen and sides. Dr. Rubinstein took the time to really explain things to me. I felt very comfortable with him, and decided to let him do my tummy tuck and liposuction. His prices were really good, and the results are unbelievable. My scar has almost disappeared and I am thrilled with my new body! Whenever I hear somebody talking about doing plastic surgery, I tell them to call Dr. Rubinstein." A.V.
"I was referred to Dr. Rubinstein, by a friend who had a tummy tuck. After I saw how great she looked, I had to have mine done. It was the best thing I could of ever done. Dr. Rubinstein was very caring, and understanding about how I wanted to look. He made me feel very comfortable. Now I can wear my clothing without worrying about that bulge. Thanks, Doc !!!!!" T.A.
"My experience with Dr. Joshua Rubinstein has been an extremely positive one. He was patient, understanding, caring and always explained himself in language that was easy to understand. He places himself in the position of the patient, never arrogant or misleading; he is truly a man who cares about his profession and those he serves. I went to Dr. Rubinstein for liposuction to my abdomen and flank area. On the day of my procedure, I was brought into the surgery center around noon and with the help of his extremely friendly and professional staff, they made me feel comfortable and not at all nervous. The procedure took approximately 1 hour and it went very smooth. After a couple of weeks I was at the beach with my brand new body, feeling very confident." A.B.
"There are no words for how satisfied I am with the tummy tuck that Dr. Rubinstein performed on me this past spring. After having had 3 kids, my stomach area was something I felt ashamed of and had to hide with clothing. Dr. Rubinstein was professional, skilled, honest and had an excellent bedside manner. He walked me through the procedure from start to finish and provided excellent aftercare. I felt safe in his capable hands and the results speak for themselves. Wow! I feel like a new person! I can finally tuck in my shirts, no longer have to suck in my stomach, and dropped from a size 12 to a size 8 in jeans. Both men and women alike have noticed the more confident and sexy me. Friends are asking for Dr. Rubinstein's number, they are so impressed with my results. This procedure was affordable and life changing. Thank you, Dr. Rubinstein!!" G.S.
Dear Dr. Greenwald, I don't know how to begin to express my appreciation to you for making a surgery that has truly changed my life. I have no doubt that without you and your incredible staffs' willingness to work with me, it would not have been possible. Even in these early stages of recovery, I could not be happier with the results and know that I am only beginning to understand how dramatically this change will affect me. You are clearly a great talent but you are also, and maybe more importantly a conservative professional and great human being. With proud gratitude - A.F.
I wanted to Thank you for taking such good care of me. I appreciate your meticulous surgical skills and honest approach to plastic surgery. There is nobody that I would trust more with my boobs! Thank you for helping me to achieve a long life of cute bra wearing. Happy New Year! Fondly, L.
To Dr. Greenwald, I cannot say enough great things about you & your staff. I couldn't be happier with my new body! With Gratitude, C.M.
Dear Dr. Greenwald & Staff, Everybody was right! I wish I did this twenty years earlier! You and your staff were great! Thanks again, W.M.
Dear Dr. Greenwald, Thank you for everything you are talented and caring. You and your staff made me feel comfortable" "every step of the way. Thanks again, B.B.
I would like you to know how impressed I was with you, your staff's professionalism, and the complete office environment. The entire experience was very reassuring, and more than I expected. I know I chose wisely and am thrilled with my results. L .M.

Dr. Greenwald and his staff were professional and corteous. I only wish I had done my procedure twenty years earlier. N.M.
"Thank you so much for turning back the clock! With the upper eyelid surgery, my eyes are more open, the extra skin is gone and I still look like me, just a decade or so younger. It was such an easy procedure with such a quick recovery. I was back at work in just three days! Thanks again for everything." L.H.
"I just wanted to thank you for giving me those "ripped abs" I've been working so hard at the gym for. I just couldn't get that last bit worked off and with the ab etching liposuction you did (coupled with my hard workouts and disciplined diet) I was able to achieve what I didn't think possible. Way to go!" M.N.
"Dear Dr. Korman, Thanks so much for the body lift procedure which you performed on me on January 14, 1999. It goes without saying that I am absolutely ecstatic with the result. It has exceeded my expectation, both in terms of the physical as well as the mental aspects of the outcome. My skin is tighter than it has been in over twenty years. I am now seven weeks out from the operation at this point, and am already back to my vigorous workout schedule! Both friends and family are also amazed at my new contour! I keep getting positive comments from everyone that I see. I really appreciate all of your hard work. You always have been there for any/all of my questions which really helped me as I went through the decision – making process in terms of having the surgery. Laurie and your other staff were also great! If any other patients are interested in having this operation, I would highly encourage it. It can really change someone's lift. It was fun doing the story on body lifts on ABC's 20/20. Judging by the viewers who have contacted me through email, many others around the country can benefit from this great procedure. Again, Dr. Korman, I really appreciate the result and look forward to staying in touch!" T.
"One of your patients just called me as a referral for breast augmentation. Her biggest concern is choosing the right doctor (That was also my biggest concern). I just wanted to let you know what I told her. I said, that as a surgeon, you are an artist that takes absolute pride in his work. You're an excellent doctor that epitomizes what "bedside manner" should be. And you're a warm and caring individual – a "real" human being. I trusted your judgment all the way. And there's not been a single moment of regret. Just the opposite – I'm elated with the results. And I owe that to you. I'll tell that to anyone who asks." L.T.
"I want to express to you again how delighted I am with the results of my surgery. You are a very gifted surgeon and I am so fortunate that my friend recommended you to me. And your staff is marvelous – from my first contact where Monie gave me directions, to meeting with Kary who was so helpful and empathetic – to my interview with you, to the entire surgical experience and after care – what pleasant and caring people you all are! Surgery is never fun, but you all made it a good experience. Thank you!" D.S.
"It is incredible how fast these four months have passed since my surgery. While these months have passed, I have been so amazed at how the results of my procedures keep getting better. I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you did with my abdominoplasty, breast augmentation and flank liposuction. Most of all I want to thank you and your staff for your caring, friendly, supportive manner in which you have helped me during my decision-making process, preoperative jitters and post operative recovery. As future clients come to you and need references, it would be a pleasure to speak with them regarding the procedures I have had. Thank you again and I will see you at my next appointment." D.W.
"The BOTOX® Cosmetics is perfect! What I have noticed is that it makes my face look gentler, kinder and I have a happier expression. There is a difference in the way people respond to me when I'm not making a frown. My forehead has a smoother appearance, which is more youthful and yet completely natural looking. I even feel happier. I love it! Thanks!" J.B.
"Dr. Korman, Kary, Moni, Amanda and everyone who was involved in the cutting, slicing and mending of me – thank you. I look in the mirror and see someone far prettier and sexier than I have ever been. As you all know, for many years, I was very heavy, and I was kind of a "fringe" person – you know how tough things can be for the fat, the less than beautiful and awkward. Well, I was that person – the fat girl in the group. In my thirties, I finally took the weight off and started working out, running and eating better. But who really thought (not I!) that I would one day have a tight tummy, pouty lips and big boobs?? And that every time I went to the doctor's office I would be so entertained by a bunch of crazy people like you! You have made this experience very positive even when there was pain, discomfort and fear. Thank you so much. All the best to all of you in 2007." P.N.
"In August, when my general surgeon first explained my options for breast reconstruction, I didn’t find either of them very appealing. I was hoping there was a "magic wand” option, but it was never mentioned, so after meeting with you I had to pick from the two and trust that I made the right decision. Now, after I see the results of the work that you have done, I realize that I got the "magic wand” option after all. You have gone way beyond my expectations for how it would all turn out. I really don’t know how to thank you for all that you have done. My general surgeon saved my life, but you gave it back to me by making me feel whole and normal again. The only thing that I can think of doing is telling everyone I know how skillful and talented you are. I pray that you will be able to continue to help people in such a wonderful way for many years to come. I also want to tell you that your staff is wonderful. Their cheerful smiles, compassion, and encouragement really helped me get through those dark days of chemo. All of them were so supportive and understanding. They treated me like I was their friend and that meant so much. I will miss seeing them. I wish all of you success in the future. " C.S.
"Dear Dr. Fodero: I am writing this letter to you and your staff in appreciation of the care you have and continue to extend to me. I understand full well that it is more difficult than ever for doctors to extend the kind of care patients need. The demands made on any practice are great. In the past two years I have needed surgery four times and have had to make regular visits to my oncologist, surgeon and more recently to you. I have had to interview doctors and even change doctors to receive decent care. It is not that I am particularly demanding, but I do value my life and therefore take the time to select my health care professionals. You may wonder why I selected you. You are young enough to be my son and yet I was able to respect you and entrust you with my life. You possess an unusual combination of talents. You are a technician first and that is important. In addition you have acted impeccably to do a first rate job surgically and in follow up care. While I was in the hospital you visited me every day, even on weekends. When you extend care I am confident that you are for that time focused on providing the best care that you are capable of. You also seem to understand how to empower me to recover confidently because you have told me what to expect proactively and assured me that I would enjoy a full recovery. Having a mastectomy and reconstruction is a very intimidating process. I thank you for making this as easy as it could possibly be. Life is not perfect and I need to face surgery again. The real mark of a good doctor is how he/she handles challenges. Although I am not enamored with the thought of surgery again, I have total confidence that I can count on your competence and will receive the appropriate are that will assure a quick and smooth recovery."
"To whom it may concern: It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of my experience with Dr. Joseph Fodero. Having been diagnosed with breast cancer in early October 2001 and having made the decision to undergo a double mastectomy, I was faced with the uncertainties of breast reconstruction. I had interviewed several plastic surgeons, coming away feeling very much like a statistic until Dr. Fodero's. He demonstrated true interest in my situation. The excitement with with Dr. Fodero explained the procedure, the precise answers he supplied to my questions and his inexhaustible patience with me set him apart from the other doctors and led me to my decision to trust him with the reconstruction of my body. Dr. Fodero consistently demonstrated his intensity for perfection with my reconstruction. All my questions are answered honestly and my expectations are put into a realistic perspective. He is compassionate when addressing my insecurites about all this. I am extremely pleased with my progress and am looking forward to the end result which i am confident will be the very best out there. I would not hesitate to use Dr. Fodero for any of my plastic surgery needs and I have recommended him on many occasions. I believe he is at the top of the game when it comes to plastic surgery and my breast reconstruction can and will back this up." S.M.
"Dr. Fodero is my hero. Not to long ago, I was involved in an auto accident and I was severely injured. Dr. Fodero is a plastic surgeon and he promised me that he would help me to look like God intended me to look." A.C.
"Lives have changed for the better and I thank you for this from the bottom of my heart". N.N.
"Well, I just want to thank you for being who you are and to let you know that I'm one of those people whose life is just a little happier because you're in the world. My family and I will always be grateful to you for doing my surgery. I'm doing really great." H.X.
"I love my new look, and it is a new experience to try on clothes in cute boutiques." N.D.
"Thanks for your super fine treatment….I really appreciated the excellent care you gave me." N.T.
"I look in the mirror and see a new face - a face that you molded with your fine sensitive hands - it is amazing…I thought I would let you know how great I feel and how great you make me feel." K.T.
"Can't get over how you fixed me up, Joe! Now I must decide who that exact right person to kiss will be. …Thank you so very much." D.B.
"Just a short note of thanks for the great job you did…I really appreciated your generosity and concern in my after care. Once again thank you sincerely." X.D.
"I wish to thank you for the excellent surgery you performed…There are no signs of the fifty stitches you had to place in the skin. You no doubt have won many friends with your skilled surgery." F.A.
"You are great!!! Here is my long overdue thank you. You are very talented and a truly warm and caring doctor. I am so very happy you are in the career that you are. People need doctors like you." L.L.
"I always hated my nose. Growing up I was teased constantly and I became very self-conscious and withdrawn. My first semester in college I decided that cosmetic surgery was the answer. My family doctor and other people I asked recommended Dr. Joseph Perlman. I was very nervous consulting a plastic surgeon, I felt uncomfortable going to someone about a personal issue that had bothered me for so long, but Dr. Perlman and his staff were wonderful, they put me totally at ease. He was so caring and down to earth, and his office had such a comforting environment, that I became excited by the change I could make. When I got out of the surgery, I cried because I was so happy with that Dr. Perlman had done for me. Prior to this, I had never been on a date. The first time I put on my makeup and went out after my surgery I was asked out. The change in my life has been incredible. I don’t have to obsess about how I look any more, I have so much more confidence in myself now. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made." J.L.
"I was leading a very unhealthy lifestyle. I ate poorly, I was overweight, undisciplined and unhappy with my appearance. In all, I wasn’t positive in myself. I decided that cosmetic surgery might improve my appearance and boost my confidence. I chose Dr. Joseph Perlman after speaking with some of his former patients and hearing how wonderful their experience had been. He performed liposuction on my waist and abdomen – I hadn’t seen my abs since high school – and around my chin. Just as importantly, he explained to me that surgery alone wouldn’t give me the physique I wanted – I needed to change my lifestyle as well. I followed his diet and exercise recommendations after my surgery and have since lost more than 25 pounds. My appearance and my attitude have completely changed, thanks to Dr. Perlman." J.C.
"Dear Dr. Hirschfeld and the rest of the crew- Thank you for always being so caring, friendly, very cool and for helping me change the one thing I always hated about myself! I love how I look, I feel better about myself and it is almost impossible to find the right words to thank all of you for such an incredible gift!! You guys are the very BEST! Love always!"
"Dear Dr. Hirschfeld, Today, the 11th day after the surgery, I can't describe how HAPPY I really am. My friends are amazed, seeing me already on the 8th and 9th day. Such quick recovery can only be contributed to a Doctor who is a MASTER in his field. If there was a higher level word other than: Thank You, Danke Schon, Merci, I would use these for sure. Forever Grateful."
"Dr. Hirschfeld and Staff, Words cannot express how grateful, thankful and appreciative I am for the most exquisite service which I have received. 5 days after the surgery I feel already fabulous! I waited almost an entire year before I made my decision to choose you for this important surgery. I know I choose the BEST of the BEST Doctors in the field of Plastic Surgery. Dr. Hirschfeld, you are not just a "wonderful, caring person". You are also simply "TOP SHELF" in your profession. Thanks from the bottom of my heart."
"Hi to All, First, I'd like to thank you all for the wonderful treatment I have received from all. Your office has such a warm friendly feeling. This made me feel great. having worked in the medical field all my working years, I sometimes feel I expect more than most and I received it in great amounts. Once again, Thank you."
"Dear Dr. Hirschefeld & Staff, This is the best group of professionals I have ever had the privilege" "to know. You all have shown great kindness along with making someone feel comfortable. To a special thanks to Denise for having to deal with the insurance company - a real pain for her - but she did it with a smile! Thanks for everything!"
"Dear Dr. Hirschfeld, Joanne, Karen, Denise and the rest of the crew - Thank you for "always" being so caring, friendly, very cool - and for helping me change the one thing I always hated about myself! I love how I look, I feel better about myself and it is almost impossible to find the right words to thank all of you for such an incredible gift!! You guys are the 'very Best!' Ps. My husband loves them "too"!"
"Dr. Hirschfeld, Karen, Joanne & entire Staff, Thank you for being so caring and compassionate to me & my husband. Thank you."
"Dr. Hirchfeld, Thank you and your staff for your kindness and concern. I appreciate you all making the experience easier by your quality care. For the first time in over thirty years, I actually "look" somewhat normal and have a closer "match" than ever. Thank You."
"Dear Dr. Hirschfeld, Joanne, Karen & the entire Staff, Thanks so much for your caring and professional attitude. You have a way of making each patient feel special and cared for. It takes a special blend of talents to make an office run smoothly. It seems like you have the magic formula!"
"To Denise, Joanne, Karen and Everyone, You are so wonderful, your kindness and care is beyond words - Thank you!! From the bottom of my heart."
"Dear Dr. Hirschfeld & Staff, Thank you for making my experience such an easy and friendly one. The staff was extremely kind and attentive to all of my needs, and I love my "Boobs"! Thank you!"
"You are appreciated for your kindness and caring. Thanks."
"Just a little note to say Thank you to all the staff, especially to Dr. Hirschfeld and Karen for all the help and support during my surgery, and after that too. 'You are the Greatest' All the best luck always."
"Thanks for the laughs and "all" the TLC!!"
"Thank you for your courtesy and caring. You were certainly professional but I will always remember you for your kindness. I was terrified but you put me at ease. My fears aborted. I am most grateful for all that you have done for me. Dr. Hirschfeld is fortunate to have such a wonderful staff. I wish you all the very best today and always."
Dear Dr. Bongiovi, I was a patient of yours in 2003. So many times I have wanted to offer my sincere appreciation for the phenomenal work you performed on me, but, because I'm a "get around to it” type of girl, it has been almost three years now and I’m finally getting "around to it” to say THANKS! When I first came to you, I had no clue how complicated of a procedure rhinoplasty was even for the best plastic surgeon. I was blown away by your work but didn’t realize how lucky I was to have been recommended to you until I started seeing and hearing about so many rhinoplasty mishaps. I just want you to know how truly grateful I am to you. My self esteem has skyrocketed and I finally feel comfortable in my own "slightly tweaked” skin. The procedure was so much more than just a vain reason to look better for society…it truly help fill a part of me that wasn’t quite right. I can’t help but think that my procedure helped me get to where I am today, I am now happily married, in a wonderful new home and career.
Dear Elizabeth, Sometimes we need reminders to tell us how much people really do care. No words of gratitude can I find to say except to thank you, for each and every time I called your thoughtfulness and courtesy were always so gracious. Wishing you always good things in life.
Dear Dr. B, I wanted to send a short note to express some of my feelings regarding my recent surgeries. Doing this, to begin with was a big leap for me, as focusing on my "exterior” qualities has never been my main concern. I am so happy that I was lucky enough to have had you for my doctor. Your skill, goes almost without saying – it is the other aspects of care I wanted to comment on. From about one minute after you first walked in the exam room to meet me, I knew I wanted you to be my doctor. I truly appreciated your perfect blend of professional detachment and warm empathy.
Dr. Bongiovi, Greetings of the season. Thanks for your expertise & kindness. These "boobs” are the best things on this body! Happy Holidays
Dear Dr. Bongiovi: Of all the gifts that life can send there’s none more treasured then in friend and that’s what I feel you have become. What a proud Mama you must have for what you have so greatly achieved for yourself in your life, all your hard work and dedication has helped mold you into the person you are now. Also, your children must be so proud of their daddy. Your gentle way of speaking having a calmness making your patient so relaxed is a gift in doing so beautifully, creative and rewarding work, what satisfaction you must feel. I also want to complement having Elizabeth on your staff, always refreshing seeing and spending time with her, a lovely lady with a very welcoming smile, she is indeed an asset as your – up front person. May you enjoy all that life has to offer you with all of God’s blessings always you deserve the best.
Dear Dr. Bongiovi, Just a little note to tell you that I appreciate the good work that you have done for me! I can’t thank you enough!
I’m a thoroughly happy patient and look forward to maintaining my new fresher appearance with your help. I no longer look at the future as a time of inevitable "uglification.”
“On my first consultation, Dr. Banis treated me like he had known me for years. He made me feel extremely comfortable and at ease. My decision to use him for my surgery was solidified when he was highly recommended from another female surgeon in his region.”
“Thanks to you and your staff for everything! Everyone was so friendly and professional. I had such a wonderful experience and I am so pleased with everything =). Thanks again!”
"I just wanted to thank you for taking such good care of me. I’m ecstatic with my results. You’re the best!"
"I had a great experience with Doctor Rabson and his staff. Everyone is great. I didn’t feel like a bother at any time. I like the fact that time was taken for every aspect of my experience. That was probably the nicest part. I like the fact that Dr. Rabson is available anytime with his direct line. You feel safe and secure with Dr. Rabson. I would and already have recommended him to people I know. I would use him again in a heartbeat."
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Rabson, and members of the staff of Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center for such an amazing and satisfying experience. From my initial consultation to my exit visit, everyone at the center was congenial and caring. As Dr. Rabson discussed the procedure that would give me the results I desired, he was honest, straight forward, and understandable in his explanation. But what was most important was he listened to and address my concerns and questions. I felt confident that I would be placing myself in very competent hands. And Denise, his surgical nurse, made me feel so relaxed and comfortable during each initial visit and the day of surgery that I experienced minimal nervousness and anxiety. I am just so thrilled with the results of my surgery. And so is my husband! If I ever consider an additional cosmetic procedure in the future, the Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center will be my first stop. And I would highly recommend Dr. Rabson and the center to anyone."
"Thank you so much for the kind, thoughtful & excellent care I received throughout this whole process. Dr. Rabson, you do beautiful work! I love my new body and can't wait for the summer to show it off! If anyone I ever meet or know is considering plastic surgery, you will be HIGHLY recommended by me. Your staff has been nothing but kind, helpful and comforting! I almost wish I had more post op visits, just to chat with Mary Lynn. I also found it very comforting to know that if I had any questions or concerns, no matter how minor or silly they may have been, I was never made to think any of questions were unreasonable. And I could always find reassurance from you and your staff. Thank you so much again!"
"Wow, thank you very much for the birthday cake! I was totally surprised and touched by your thoughtful gift. My morale at the start of the day was rather low, another year passing and turning forty had caused me to reflect on those people in my life who are now gone. My mother was always the one to make the fancy birthday cake for me. I lost her when I was 30. I was missing her and her cake. S and I enjoyed the dessert that evening and used the opportunity to invite close friends to share. Our friends were most impressed that my surgeon and his staff would remember my birthday and give me a cake ... possibly even more impressed with that considerate gesture than the excellent results from the surgery itself! I must say that I thoroughly appreciated and even enjoyed this whole medical adventure. From the initial consultation, the follow up questions, additional consultations, the surgery, and all the follow up calls and visits. The whole process was well orchestrated, all of my questions were answered, and all of my expectations were met. The recovery process was exciting and amazing for me, as I have never had any major surgery or visible injuries before. We are very pleased with the results, even better than we expected. I am astounded at the work you perform and the expert execution of that work. Dr. Rabson, you have an amazing staff. They show genuine warmth, concern, enthusiasm, and even seemed excited for me. Every visit to your office was comfortable, and I always felt more like a friend than a patient. I have found in my business that people expect to get what they pay for; it is the little extra things that they appreciate and the way they are treated that makes an impression. Indifference will lose a customer faster than a poorly executed repair. You obviously have a decisive control and understanding of that philosophy. By the way, I am a metalogical perfectionist and not easily impressed. I'm impressed to be so impressed. Thank you all very much for everything."
"Dr. Rabson really cared about me. Everyone in the office was so wonderful."
"I felt very comfortable in Dr. Rabson's office. I had so many questions, and I never felt like I was bothering anyone."
"I heard good things about Dr. Rabson from my friends, and they were right!"
"Thank you for all the terrific care and support, to say nothing about a great result! We can't begin to tell you how much we appreciate your caring, quality service."
"After only three month since that date, I can honestly see at least five, possibly ten years were removed from my face. As I am told, the swelling takes up to about a year to subside and it looks better every day. Was it worth it? Would I do it again if given the choice? Absolutely! Thank you, Dr. Rabson, for working your magic. After the bandages came off the day after the surgery, my husband said it was “like magic.” I say extreme skill and experience are behind what you can do! My face now matches my youthful inner spirit, and I am grateful. Denise’s words of encouragement sustained me every step of the way. She was always there to answer and “re-answer” my abundant questions. She is truly the “heart” of your practice."
"Dr. Weinrach, I am so happy with the great job you did on my eye and chin. You are a very talented surgeon. May God Bless you and your practice always."
"Dr. Weinrach, I want to thank you again for "stitching up” my brow on Sunday Dec. 4th. You are a wonderful plastic surgeon. Good Luck to you."
"Thank you to Dr. Weinrach for his honest assessments and the time taken to explain all routes and possibilities to the family. He went the extra mile to make phone calls to other departments to assure we were getting the right care at the right time as well as two post operative phone calls from his vacation to confirm our family member was healing well. We know that his surgery not only is helping our family member’s facial recovery, but he made him look very much like himself again after a devastating blow to his face and head. Surgeons have an reputation for being a bit cold but he was attentive and personal. God bless, Dr. Weinrach."
"Thanks! Just wanted to formally say thank you. For your Great Work!! It was greatly appreciated more than you can imagine."
"Dear Dr. Weinrach: As you are aware, I did a lot of research on finding the right plastic surgeon and you were also described by a fellow surgeon as ‘extremely talented’. I am very happy with the ‘work’ you performed on me. I’ve had several cosmetic surgeries over the years so I feel that I’m qualified in knowing what I want from my surgeon and the expected outcome. After our initial consultation, I knew that you were the ‘one’. I had a 2” follow-up consult with you and came in with several questions, all of which were answered to my complete satisfaction. When I saw you in pre-op, I handed you another reminder of what I wanted done, and I felt completely confident that I would get what I wanted...and I did! The outcome was far beyond what my expectations were. You were concerned, empathetic and reassuring in my post-operative care. No surgeon has ever followed me as closely as you. You were ‘with me’ every step of the way. To me, Dr. Weinrach, your follow-up care for me continued to validate that I had indeed chosen the best! It was a pleasure being your patient and an honor having you as my surgeon."
"Dr. Weinrach and Staff, Thank you sooo - much for an excellent experience. I’ve had plastic surgery before and have never been so pleased with the treatment from all of your staff and of course the beautiful results. I recommend everyone to spend the night it makes a big difference."
"Dr. Weinrach, I am very pleased that I chose you as my surgeon. You are awesome 🙂 I really appreciate that you listened to what I wanted. You spent more than enough time answering my many questions, and made my concerns important to you. Thanks Again,"
"Dr. Weinrach, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you. My life has changed because of my surgery. I have had large breasts for 16 years, and have had to live with wearing clothes that are too big, bra straps that cut into my shoulders, back and neck pain and migraines. That is just a few of the struggles that I have had to go through. Now I can exercise, wear clothes that are flattering and wear a swimsuit, no more t-shirts and shorts in the pool! The fact that you were able to reduce me 5 sizes and make my breasts look so beautiful and natural is amazing! I feel that thank you is not enough! You have an amazing gift and I am blessed that you were able to share it with me, thank you for giving me my life back." M.S.
"Dr. Rast and APS Staff, Thank you for your outstanding professionalism during my breast cancer reconstruction process the past year. I appreciate so much your expertise, efficiency and respect through every appointment and procedure. You smiles and kindness were welcome during a very trying period of my life. Thanks for making a difference!"
"Dr. Rast, There aren't enough words to thank you for all you've done for me. A breast cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming with all the decisions and unknowns. I will always remember out first appointment when you so patiently explained my options and answered my seemingly endless questions about reconstruction. Your compassion and knowledge calmed my fears and gave me hope. And as time went on, your surgical expertise "assembly" as you referred to it gave me a sense of being physically "normal" once again. I am so impressed and pleased with the results, and couldn't be more satisfied. I never minded waiting my turn at appointments because I knew you were taking the time to provide the same empathy and respect that you showed me to yet another new patient who would soon discover what a gem of a surgeon they had. Your skill, calm demeanor, good natured personality and kindness carried me through this phase of my journey. I am eternally grateful! Quite simply, thank you. Please continue your commitment to helping breast cancer patients restore their appearance. The world needs more physicians like you."
"Dr. Harrell I want you to know how satisfied I am with the work you did recently for me. I was a little apprehensive about the injections and you and your staff made it just about painless. My lip looks great and the Botox did the trick for the forehead wrinkles. My sister will definitely be coming in to see you for a lip augmentation and after seeing my wrinkles disappear I bet she'll try the Botox as well. I know this was probably a little thing for you but thanks for making it so easy." T.C.
"Dear Dr. Harrell, I wanted to thank you for the beautiful work you did for me. I am constantly getting compliments about my nose. It's beautiful. It's just the way I wanted. You have helped me fulfill a long time dream. The extra bonus is that I breathe so much better as well. No one has noticed the chin implant but I love the way it balances my face. I had always felt my chin was too 'weak'. At any rate I wanted to let you and your staff know how much I appreciate the information, the time and of course the talent that was given to me. If you ever have a patient that wants to talk to someone about these procedures I'd be happy to give them my experience. Thank you again so much." M.D.
"Dr. Harrell is an amazing doctor. Because of his skill he changed my life completely. I am so pleased with my breasts. Before the surgery I was a 34 B. Now I'm a 36 D and couldn't be happier. Before the surgery I was slightly asymmetric and that was corrected as well. To be honest I never knew my breasts would turn out this well. What was a dream is now reality. Before getting the surgery I looked at a number of online websites and read other patient's testimonials. I always wondered if they exaggerated their results or if they were as satisfied as they sounded. Now I count myself very satisfied and I'm not exaggerating. Dr. Harrell's staff was so nice. His assistant and office manager were a huge help and they made choosing a size very comfortable. I will definitely send all my friends and family to Dr. Harrell if they ever need plastic surgery. As a matter of fact my mother has already had some treatments at Dr. Harrell's medispa. I honestly could not be happier. My life has changed for the better thanks to Dr. Harrell and his staff." R.H.
"My experience with Zinsser Plastic Surgery was a delightful one. Too perfect to be true! Going through a procedure no matter how bad you want it is nerve wrecking. Dr. Zinsser performed butt augmentation on me and I love the results. Dr. Zinsser is first and most of all a professional who demonstrated his excellent skills and knowledge in the plastic surgery field. He demonstrated true concern for my well being and only suggested things that would be in my best interest even if it meant a profit decrease for him. He listened and explained everything in detail. He always made himself available for any concern or questions. He dedicated endless hours researching in order to provide the best quality implants that resulted in an excellent appearances and a very happy patient. My incision is close to not being noticeable because of his suturing skills. His staff is endearing. They go out of their way to make you feel like their #1 patient. They put me at ease and were always concerned about accommodating my needs. His office Manager, Deb Ely is an outstanding individual. She did everything in her power to ensure my privacy as a patient was respected. I will for life be in debt with Dr. Zinsser and his staff. Even if I moved across the country, I will make sure that Dr. Zinsser performs any future procedures on me! It truly brings tears to my eyes to have found his practice here in Richmond. Because of Dr. Zinsser I walk with my head higher these days. Thank you Dr. Zinsser and Staff!" S.L.
"Since my surgery, I have been recommending Dr. Zinsser to anyone who mentions needing/wanting plastic surgery. Dr. Zinsser and his entire staff made me feel like I was their only patient. The nurses and anesthesiologists in the surgery center were the best. Their professionalism and attention to my comfort were exceptional. The final results exceeded my expectations. Dr. Zinsser is a true artist!" A.B.
"After suffering with back, neck and shoulder pain for more years than I can remember, I had the good fortune to find Dr. Zinsser. I knew that I needed a breast reduction and was very apprehensive about having the procedure. After my first consultation, I knew that I had a doctor that would care about me as an individual and not just another patient. He took the time to carefully explain everything and answer any questions that I had. In addition to the breast reduction, I also had the bags removed from my lower eyelids so that I would not look so tired. There are just not enough words to express how pleased I am with the quality of Dr. Zinsser's work. I feel like a new person. My back, neck and shoulder pain immediately went away. My eyes look amazing. The best part is that everything he did looks so natural. I do not look like I had 'work done'. People just keep saying that I look great for my age. Being able to buy clothes, especially bathing suits, is now a pleasure, and not a heartache. How do you say thank you to someone who gave you your life back? You let other people know how wonderful he is and hope that if they need a plastic surgeon, they will not hesitate to call him. It will be the best decision that they can make." R.A.
"I just want to convey to you and your staff how very pleased I am with the results of my surgery. Before surgery I was really miserable not only with the size of my breast, but also the constant neck, back and shoulder pain. Since my procedure, I can now participate in different activities that before I felt very uncomfortable with in public. As an operating room nurse, I can perform better and personally feel better about myself. Many acquaintances and friends have commented on my appearance, which even convinced me more that I am so glad I had the procedure performed by you and the great staff at St. Mary's Ambulatory Surgery center.I even have had several people and their family members request your name, which I gladly gave them and sang your high praises. Again, thanks for all that you have done for me." M.C.
"My name is J., I am 39 years old and a mother of 3. I had been thinking of getting a breast augmentation for a very long time, but never acted upon the thoughts. It took me three years to get up the courage of making a decision to proceed with my dream. I had visited quite a number of plastic surgeons, but I was never quite convinced that the doctor was right for me. I wanted to be as confident as possible with the surgeon who I was going to trust to perform breast surgery on me. All these feelings of nervousness and apprehension changed when I walked into Dr. Zinsser's practice. Dr. Zinsser and his staff made me feel welcome, at home and more importantly at ease. They were patient with me and always there to answer any and all of my questions. I trust Dr. Zinsser and his staff as they are experienced, caring and they know what they are doing. After all my years of research I wouldn't have picked any other doctor to perform my breast enhancement surgery. Dr. Zinsser is the BEST! As a matter of fact, I have now been considering a few other procedures to have Dr. Zinsser perform. Thank you for everything. I thank you for making me look even more beautiful.I feel fabulous! Thank you Dr. Zinsser to you and your staff. You changed my life." J.
"Dear Dr. Zinsser and staff (and everyone that assisted in my brachioplasty surgery): I am so excited about the look of my new arms!! I researched getting brachioplasty surgery for over a year and had spoken to 2 other plastic surgeons. I am so thankful that I found you and your wonderful staff. I would like to say “thank you” Dr. Zinsser to you and to everyone that participated in every aspect of my surgery. I have never met a more caring and knowledgeable group of professionals. Elective surgery is a hard decision in itself, but I can see that I made the right decision 100% I am still healing from my surgery and could not be happier with the results and from what I am told, my arms will look even better after they have healed completely!! I will definitely be back to get the lipo that I am interested in. You all have touched my heart! Thanks again for being the wonderful group that you are!" V.F.
"Dear Dr. Tyrone, Many thanks for stitching up my forehead everything seems to look good only time will tell. Hope to see you for some Botox. Kind regards." D.
"Thank you all for your professionalism and making me comfortable enough to follow through. You all were great! I will surely enjoy your wonderful work for years to come (So will my husband!!)"
"Dr. Tyrone, It is with sincere appreciate that I say "Thank You", every staff member I had contact with was professional and kind. What a wonderful experience I had! I want to say another word of appreciate to the nurses who took care of me directly after my surgery - I am not sure who all took care of me but I would tell that I was in skillful caring hands. I was "gently" cared for and I thank all of you who had contact with me. Thank you!" M.
"Dr. Tryone, Thanks again for the wonderful care. You are a great doctor and I constantly tell my friends. Thanks." M.
"Dr. Tyrone, I wanted to let you know how appreciative I am of your surgical skills, but most of all I appreciate the care & compassion you give to your patients. Also, the care I received before, during and after the surgery from the staff at the Surgery Center - had a great deal to do with my overall success. Much success with your own practice." L.
"Dr. Tyrone, You do great work and your staff is wonderful!" J.
"Dear Dr. Bass, Norma and Theresa, Thank you so much for getting me in for surgery the day after my consultation. I am pleased with the results already knowing you all listened and that the "B” cup will be well-suited for my frame. The facility was great…so efficient, kind and caring…so glad we went with the silicone!" J.Z.
"Dr. Bass, Norma, Theresa, I wanted to thank you all for the experience I had at your office. Thank you, Dr. Bass, for the wonderful and amazing work you did for me. I am very happy with my breast augmentation!! And I am still adjusting to having such a great "chest.” It’s a lot of fun buying bras and clothes now and seeing how they fit so well. Thank you for all you did for me before, during, and after surgery. Your expertise in answering questions and your professional compassionate manner were much appreciated through it all. Thank you, Norma, for all your help walking me through all the steps involved in the procedure and for being available for questions any time. You were wonderful and very easy to discuss things with as well as informative and encouraging. Thank you, Theresa, for always greeting me cheerfully and with a bottle of water. You were always so kind and complimentary. Thank you all, for all you did for me and for making the whole process more comfortable for me and with such a great outcome. P.S. I also really appreciated the photo book of before and after pictures." D.H.
"Dr. Bass & Staff, Being 80 is wonderful! I look in the mirror and have no wrinkles. Thanks to you, Dr. Bass. I have the look that I want. Norma thanks again for coming to the Biltmore surgical and Recovery Care center to be with me before the procedure. You are a very special lady and a true gem. Thanks for the cookies..." L.B.
"Dear Dr. Bass, Theresa, and Norma, I just wanted to drop a line and thank you al so much for the way you have treated me. Us with all the insurance. Your kindness and professionalism are dearly appreciated. Theresa, you have gone above and beyond with helping us with all the insurance. I truly won’t know where we would be without your help. Dr. Bass, you held my hand (literally) through this entire process and made me feel safe and always comfortable. Thank you for the collaborative effort at making this patient so happy." T.K.
"Dear Dr. Bass, I never really felt like a caterpillar, and I certainly am not a butterfly, but I want you to know how much I appreciate my refreshed and more youthful look and the "miracle” of not having those large, rope-like scars behind my ears." B.K.
"Dr. Williams & Staff, I just want all of you to know that I am so pleased with the outcome of my surgery. Especially the time & generosity all of you took with me and my decision. Dr. Williams, you truly are the best surgeon ever!"
"Thank you for taking the time to address all of my concerns the day of my consultation. Your knowledge of the field helped me. Thank you all for making me feel welcome the day of my surgery and the days that followed. God bless you and your families!"
"Dr. Williams, Words cannot express how grateful I am to you. For years I have felt "embarrassed" of my breasts, I did not feel like a woman, much less normal. Thanks to you I enjoy looking at myself in the mirror! I feel like a woman! I only wish you would have done my 1st surgery. But I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. You are "very" talented surgeon and I am glad God led me to you! Take care of those hands and know they and you are in my prayers! Afterall, they and you saved my life as a woman! God bless you and your family!"
"Dr. Williams & Staff, I appreciate everything you have done for me. I am enjoying my new look. I am glad I found such a wonderful surgeon that I can trust with my life. May God bless you and your business."
"Dr. Cozzone, Thank you so much for sewing my ear & doing my belly ring. I've gotten so many compliments on it. I really appreciate all you have done to make me beautiful. You're the best!"
"Dear Dr. Cozzone, Jane & Mary, I don't know where to begin to express how grateful I am to all of you for your professional mannerisms and for being so helpful & kind. I am thoroughly happy with everything you have done for me. Next time I come in I will have a nice surprise for all of you. Every chance I get I recommend you. You deserve it, your an artist!" L.
"Dear John, I can't thank you enough for the wonderful gift you gave me. My self-esteem has been totally lifted as a result of my new body. You are truly an artist. I will be sure to highly recommend your services to all of my friends. Hope to see more of you in a friends basis with the gang! You're a Godsend! Thanks so much."
"Dear Dr. Cozzone, I would like to thank you for everything that you did for me. With my new look I feel like a complete woman. The size and shape of my new breast is just perfect and looks so natural. You made my dream come true. I would highly recommend you to everyone. Thank you again." K.
"Dear Dr. Cozzone, I would like to express my gratitude for your "professionalism & mannerisms" during my surgery. I am very happy with each new days progress. You chose a great profession, one that can make people feel good about themselves. If all my referrals come through, you will be a busy doctor. Thanks Again."
"Dr. Cozzone, Just wanted to say "thank you." any change that gives someone more self-esteem and confidence is truly wonderful. I love my "new" look, and you did a fabulous job. I have no regrets and wish I had done it years ago. Ps. You convinced me to keep my rose Tattoo..."
"Dear Dr. Cozzone, I just wanted to write you a note to say thank you for everything. I can't even express in words how happy I am. I feel like I am a completely different person. I absolutely love it! You did exactly what I asked, you will never know how grateful I am for that. It looks so "natural", everyone is so amazed (I guess most people were expecting me to look fake). My dream has finally come true, to look completely like a woman. You are a wonderful doctor, I know you don't need me to tell you that but I'm sure it doesn't hurt to hear it. Thank you."
"Dear Dr. Cozzone, Thank you very much for taking such good care of me. I am very happy already! I can't wait to see the final results! I'm happy that I saw your ad in NY Monthly. I'd recommend you to anyone."
"Dear Dr. Cozzone, I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the wonderful work which you performed. The decision to elect you as my surgeon came only after an exhaustive, two-year national search for the most qualified plastic surgeon. My efforts were well reward. Having met with and seen the results of a multitude of plastic surgeons, I can honestly say that your work stands for above all others. Your caring and genuine concern for the comfort of your patients is praise-worthy. Your taking every opportunity and all the time in the world to answer and and all of my questions alleviated much of my stress and worry. I also wish to commend the wonderful staff that surrounds you. Everyone was most patient and courteous. The nurses at the Bergen Surgical Center were extremely professional as well as consoling. Thank you again for achieving such sterling results that went far beyond any of my expectations. I remain extremely indebted to your exceptional talents. Please feel free to use this letter of appreciation as a source of referral to anyone who may consider choosing your services."
"It has helped me feel better about my body & how it looks. Dr. Silverton did a great job. No one even knows my breasts are fake. Which is exactly what I wanted. For it to be natural looking."
"I feel so much more confident, my clothes fit me so much better and I have a figure again. Thank You!"
"This procedure provided me with an extra boost of self-esteem! I feel & look great!"
"It was a great experience. I would do it again."
"I'm so pleased & feel much better about my appearance. Thank You!"
"I feel much better about the way I look!"
"With larger breasts my body is now in proportion with my hips and I feel more feminine. My husband, who always told me I did't need larger breasts, also likes them."
"It gave me more confidence. I look great in bikinis now. I'm no longer self-conscious about my breasts." A.
"The entire staff, as well as Dr. Taylor, have been amazing throughout the whole process. I could not have asked for a more positive experience. Thank you all!" H.D.
"I felt very comfortable with Dr. Taylor and everyone in his office. Thanks again!" R.S.
"I am blessed to have you as my surgeon. At 22 years old I’m finally at peace with my body. Thank you Dr. Taylor this hour glass figure is fabulous, you are truly very gifted." R.S.
"How can I thank you? Other people have a ‘job’, you have a gift! Your diligence and perfection in your field have given me a gift, a NEW life!" M.B.
"I had my BA just one week ago, and I feel fantastic.....perhaps a little sore, but overall, just great!! He did a fantastic job w/my implants, and I am quite pleased with the results." E.T.
"I had breast augmentation on August 2, 2002, by Dr. John Michael Quinn and I am extremely pleased with both my care and the results. I had received recommendations from other women on Dr. Quinn's "work" and I am glad I did. My only regret is that I waited so long to have this done (I am 43 years old). I highly recommend Dr. Quinn of Overland Park, Kansas.” Q.L.
"Hello! I just wanted to let everybody know the wonderful experience I had choosing Dr. Quinn as my surgeon. About three or four years ago my friend/hairdresser had under gone a BA and was back to work on her feet in less than a week!!!! I asked her who she went to and that's how I found out about Dr. Quinn. She told me if I go through with the procedure there was no other doctor I should even think about going to. I finally got the nerve up to go through with the procedure last July of 2003 and I couldn't be happier. I'm a bartender and was back to work in five days with very little pain not to mention all the compliments I received from people that knew about the surgery. I have already recommended him to at least three of my friends and one of them just went through her procedure a month ago and is feeling and looking great. Now it's been one year and no one ever guesses I've had surgery, I even have to remind myself half the time because they look so great. Thanks.” F.R.
"I am 35 years old, and currently I'm on my fifth day after getting saline breast implants from Dr. John Quinn in Overland Park, KS. Needless to say, I feel nearly, NEARLY, guilty that I have felt so wonderful and experienced the augmentation with such little pain! My surgery was 1/28/05 at 7:30 a.m., and by 10:30 a.m. that morning, I was back in my hotel room, sitting up and feeling great. We went home on Saturday and I was back at work on Tuesday! I'm still a bit sore, but for the most part I feel absolutely wonderful. Dr. Quinn is amazing and the pain pump MUST be the answer! I would very highly recommend him to anyone within a 500 mile radius that can make the trip!!” B.S.
"I had my 1 week post appt. with Dr Quinn in Overland Park, KS, and he told me to make sure I tell you how much I relied on this website & still do. I was able to gather so much info, enough to make me feel completely comfortable & prepared for my BA. I was not nervous one bit. I was informed & so ready, all my questions prepared & fully answered to my satisfaction. Dr Q is AWESOME!! He uses the Pain Pump after surgery & let me tell you it is a miracle device. I had so little pain post surgery that I only used my RX pain meds twice. I am now 12 days post and am a new person, so happy that I made the decision to do this BA for ME!” I.Y.
"I am 42 years old and finally came to the realization that my breasts were not going to grow -- I've been hoping and waiting this long! I had heard about Dr. Quinn from a friend, and then saw an ad in the newspaper for a free seminar. I was still a little wary, but after my initial consultation, I was ready! I had my implants on March 1, 2006 and could not be happier! Dr. Quinn is the BEST! He is a great surgeon, very knowledgeable, experienced and reputable. He is well known and respected throughout the Kansas City Metro area, both by patients and doctors. In addition to that, his bed-side manner is unequaled. He is nice, funny and genuinely sympathetic to your fears and questions. He always has time for you, as do his nurses and other office staff. He is so down-to-earth. I found out that he and my boss had gone to high school together and that he grew up just minutes from where I now live! My surgery was exactly 1 hour, and when I awoke I had very little pain. The post-op nurses were fabulous! He does his surgery at South Kansas City Surgicenter, which is owned and operated by the doctors who actually do the surgery there. Their staff is hand picked by these surgeons, and the staff definitely knows how to make you feel like a queen! I was very nervous going in, even though I've had several surgeries in the past, but they made me laugh and chatted with me, and in no time I was under! Dr. Quinn gives his patients a pain patch, which goes on each breast. It's like a TENS unit; it is a little, battery-operated patch that gives out electronic signals to the nerves to make them heal faster and take away the pain. I was off pain meds within 2 days! I had the surgery on Wednesday and went back to work on Monday. How incredible is that?? My only problem was the fact that I was still a little out of it from the anesthesia, but it was not troublesome. I love my new body and the way I look! My breasts feel natural and I love the compliments I get from others -- especially my boyfriend! …thank you, Dr. Quinn, for changing my life!!” T.T.
"I met with many doctors all over Kansas City before making my decision and decided that bedside personality was just as important to me as surgical skill. This was an elective surgery for me, and I wanted to feel good about the whole process. I had my BA (under muscle) on Dec 30th with Dr. John Michael Quinn in Overland Park, KS. He is fabulous!!! His office is state of the art, yet feels comfortable and quaint. The nursing staff makes the office visits very welcoming and Dr. Quinn is extremely pleasant and patient. He answers every question with respect and honesty. I also love his positive attitude about life!! He has a good sense of balance, which is so important for the people who you put your life in their hands. Yes, he’ll work hard to achieve your goals, but will also tell you what can and can’t be done. My left breast was smaller and hung lower naturally, so had he just plopped in an implant, those imperfections would have been magnified. He took the time to discuss what I needed done for the look I wanted. Dr. Quinn cares about his patients!!! I’ve called a number of times after my surgery for questions and he’s never once hesitated to talk to me or see me. This is very important and may tip the scales if you are choosing between 2 surgeons: Pain meds don’t have any effect on me, so I came out of surgery with only the Pain Patches (little stick on patches that are battery operated so you can move them around to the place of the pain). I tried the meds, just in case they would help, but it was a no go. I have a high tolerance for pain, and the patches really helped take the edge off. I’m 5’10”; I was an A cup, and now a C with 350cc on right and 360cc on left. The scars under my armpits will be barley noticeable. My life feels "normal” now and I almost cry thinking about how happy I am! I can wear sundresses and oxford shirts, swimsuits and tank tops – whatever I want – WITH CONFIDENCE!!! Feels so wonderful!!! I get many compliments on how natural my breasts look (and how smiley I am now) and I owe it all to Dr. Quinn!!! I recommend him to everyone!! I live in northern KC, and Dr. Quinn wasn’t the closest surgeon, but well worth the drive!!” W.J.
Dear Dr. Griffin and Staff; Barbie, Vicki, Chris, Anne, Trina, Clydette, Rochelle and Angie, To make the decision to change my appearance was fairly easy. I knew I wanted to do it. To find the right place and the right person to help me was hard, until I walked through your doors. The camaraderie and obivous respect was evident from the beginning. I felt encouraged but never coerced. Not only was I listened to, but heard. Your office goes beyond professional and a cheerful, positive atmosphere; and it served this patient well. Thank you Dr. Griffin for your skill and dong exactly what I wanted and for providing your patients with such a wonderful staff. I was surrounded by a healing spirit. Thanks Angie for brining me into the fold. P. Ps. Enjoy the chocolates!
"This has been a wonderful experience. Dr. Castle is fantastic - already recommended him to a former colleague!"
"He was a very helpful man, i called him at 11:00 at night for an emergency and he was at the hospital within half an hour, he also said he would have opened his office for me, but the hospital was closer to my house. He did a wonderful job on my nose (which I hurt at a bar) and is the only cosmetic surgeon I will go to for now on."
"Dr. Sherman did my Rhinoplasty and lipo 3 months ago, already the result is remarkable. His staff was very helpful and I could not thank him enough!"
"He did my lipo a few months ago. I consulted with a few doctors before Dr.Sherman. After my consultation with him, I decided to proceed with the surgery.I could not have made a better decision. The surgery went very well. He's the Doctor for lipo."
"I have been a patient for 23 years. Dr Sherman did reconstructive surgery after my mastectomy. He recently removed ruptured implants missed by the radiologist at my annual screening. He was, as always, kind, caring, patient, generous with his time, and passionate about his work. His staff went above and beyond to make me feel cared for."
"He is an excellent surgeon. I had my tummy tuck done in December. First of all he took his time during my initial consultation, not like a lot of other doctors. After my surgery his nurses were great and he called adn came to follow up on me. My tummy looks great. He is the guy to go to in NYC!"
"I had a breast lift done last year with Dr. Sherman and I am really happy with the results. After having three kids, my breasts according to my husband were tired and lifeless. Now he loves them and calls them perky and beautiful. I would recommend Dr. Sherman to anyone. Thanks Doc."
"I have been under Dr. Shermans care since April for breast reconstruction after my bilateral mastectomy. He has been extremely accommodating and caring throughout the entire process. He rearranged his calendar on short notice to coordinate with my breast surgeon and meet my scheduled surgery date. When I arrive early for office visits he usually sees me early rather than making me wait. Hes been patient and flexible working with my insurance company on payment issues. He even called me the day before surgery to see how I was doing.My temporary breasts (saline implants and expanders) look much better than I had imagined and the incision scars are super thin, almost threadlike, thanks to Dr. Sherman. I also liked that Dr. Sherman is one of a handful of NYC surgeons who are authorized to use the Allergan 410 silicone implants, which Ill be getting in a few weeks.Dr. Sherman has helped me through a very stressful situation and I am pleased with the results. I totally recommend him to other women facing breast reconstruction."
"I recently had an otoplasty procedure. A lot of people had been laughing at my ears but Dr. Sherman fixed that for me. I'm nine years old. He also invented tools that he uses in all the procedures. My ears look outstanding!! He is a #1 doctor and a spectacular surgeon!!!! Thank you Dr. SHERMAN!"
"Dr Sherman did a great job on my revisional breast reconstruction after mastectomy. I had had previous reconstruction done elsewhere that I was not happy with and developed a capsular contraction. Dr Sherman spent a lot of time with me answering questions and I believe he is more compassionate and understanding than other plastic surgeons I had seen, even at Sloan Kettering, since he has had personal experience in his own family with breast cancer and reconstruction. He took his time in measuring and remeasuring to ensure the best implant shape and fit possible to match the existing breast. The result is better than I expected and I’m very happy. His nurse and staff were helpful and kind."
"I had a rhinoplasty, chin augmentation, and under the chin lipo about a year ago. Dr. Sherman was always very personable, and seemed very knowledgeable and experienced. His staff was very friendly and helpful during my recovery. Directly after my surgery we called Dr. Sherman a little concerned and he was willing to open up his office just for me on a weekend. A year later I am very happy with my results, no one can tell I had my chin done and my nose looks very natural. I am confident in recommending him to other patients."
"Dr Sherman did my upper and lower eyelids 2 weeks ago. i could not be happier with the experience (very caring, very professional, virtually painless) or with the results. i would recommend him without reservation."
"After having had a few cosmetic procedures done by different doctors, I felt I had a very good vantage point from which to evaluate plastic surgeons. Although I cannot complain about my previous doctors (3 in total) they never impressed me or left me feeling better than merely "satisfied" in a very average, nondescript way. When I needed a complicated procedure I decided that I owed it to myself to do the research and find the best doctor out there -regardless of geographical limitations. I was determined to travel and provide myself with an expert.In the end I found Dr.Sherman. I felt compelled to write this evaluation because of the brillant talent this man possesses and the unbelievable support staff he has in his office. Not only were my results outstanding but the follow-up care was truly extraordinary.I cannot rate this doctor any higher and recommend him to all my family and friends."
"Dr.Sherman is a wonderful surgeon with a wonderful personality. He is quite famous and people from all over the world come to intern under him. When he did my nose one of the most famous surgeons from Italy was under Dr.Sherman's wing. I asked the intern why Dr.Sherman and he simply replied "He is experienced with skilled hands. Everyone wants to work for Dr.Sherman" My nose now looks amazing and exactly how I described to him how I wanted it. Of course when you choose how you want your nose done he also gives some advice on how to choose. I will always be grateful to Dr.Sherman!"
"This doctor is the ONLY one for liposuction and nose jobs. He is known in the doctor social circle as "Lipodoc" for obvious reasons. When I was at his office for my consultations he had done three nose jobs. This is THE doctor with the successful practice and years of experience. It helps that he has invented his own tools also"
"I had liposuction of the abdomen and I was pleasantly surprised how painless the whole operation turned out to be. There was minor discomfort and minimal bruising but that was it and the results are so fantastic that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr Sherman."
"Dr. Sherman corrected my nose from a previous surgery that left one nostril hitched up and a round ball tip with an unattractive scoop. It looks so very natural now. The office staff took such good care of me on that day and for every follow up visit. Dr. Sherman is very caring and an amazing surgeon. He recently did some surgery for two basal cell skin cancer sites where I was concerned about the scarring. He got the whole thing and lab reports were clean on the first try. It was a most stressful situation made easy and they took care of the whole thing for me. I would highly recommend Dr. Sherman for anyone in need of surgery of this type."
"I am very pleased with the results of my breast augmentation surgery. Dr Sherman and his staff are extremely professional."
"I was involved in an accident and suffered severe lacerations on my face including my nose. I was fortunate enough to find Dr. Sherman who performed emergency surgery on my nose at Cornell Weill NY Presbyterian. What impressed me most was his thorough follow-up attention. The procedure was complicated, but through his guidance my nose ended up healing much faster than other doctors had anticipated. He was direct and compassionate throughout the process, and I feel extremely lucky to have been under his care."
"Having had previous surgeries [eyelid for aesthetics and for removal of skin cancer], we set expectations together. I asked for a certain finished product ... subtle and not pulled. So no browlift or work to the center of my face ... only neck, edge of face and temporal lifting. Wondrous. People ask if I lost weight it is so subtle. I'm more than pleased."
"I am writing today because of extraordinary care I received from Dr. Sherman. On Sept.23 while hiking I fell 100 ft. and sustained broken bones to the right side of my face. The muscles of my eye were entrapped by the fracture causing severe double vision. The first group of doctors who operated on me couldn't fix the problem. I flew to NY where Dr. Sherman met me straight from the airport and took me under his care. I was re-operated on with Dr. Lisman(ocular plastic surgeon) and Dr.Sherman within two days of my arrival. Now less than two months after my surgery I am functioning normally ready go hiking again. Nobody would guess looking at me that I had severe orbital fracture, thanks to Dr.Shermans excellent technique and genuine care."
"I cannot give Dr. Sherman and his entire staff a higher recommendation. I came to the office to have a revision on a previous rhinoplasty and for the first time in my life I have a straight nose that I can breathe through perfectly. Then I had a breast augmentation. Dr. Sherman was excellent in aligning my expectations with what was actually achievable. I am so happy with the results. I have beautiful and natural breasts. Dr. Sherman’s credentials and years of experience speak for themselves but his warmth and careful attentiveness made my whole experience wonderful. He always took his time to answer my questions. I have not met a more caring physician. My experience with Dr. Sherman has quite literally changed my life. I recommend him to anyone contemplating cosmetic surgery."
"It has been a privilege to have Dr Sherman correct a prior disfiguring rhinoplasty which was the result from a previous plastic surgeon and to have him perform additional cosmetic surgery. Dr Sherman is extremely talented and a skilled surgeon whose reputation is well known and who enjoys the highest of respect from his colleagues and patients alike. Dr Sherman, who also has a wonderful sense of humor, is honest, straightforward and compassionate. The management of his office reflects the same degree of professionalism and provides an environment that is comforting and reassuring. There are some physicians you want to keep in your life forever and Dr. Sherman is exactly that for me."
"I was referred to Dr Sherman for a revision due to poor results from my first breast reconstruction after my bilateral mastectomy. My first reconstruction left my implants way too low and I had no cleavage. I was very unhappy but was told by my plastic surgeon that this was an excellent result.From the moment I entered his office, my experience with Dr. Sherman was a drastic change. He actually listened to my concerns and most importantly validated them. My surgery was February 14th 2010, very fitting because I woke up LOVING my new breasts (and they were only the expanders). Dr Sherman used alloderm and sewed in the expanders. He fixed the issue with my "having no cleavage" as well as the implants being way to low. I actually can breathe better. I feel he is so "cutting edge". Dr Sherman says we have a way to go but I already see a tremendous difference. Since my mastectomy I have been cancer free and that is the by far the most important thing. But how my breasts look is a reflection of my womanhood and I am empowered to be feeling closer to my "old self". After all, as horrific as my breast cancer diagnosis has been, getting the best cosmetic result is something I certainly deserve. Dr. Sherman assures me that he will give me the best cosmetic result possible, and this time around I really believe it!! I HIGHLY recommend Dr Sherman to any woman facing breast reconstruction after a mastectomy. He is kind, compassionate and a highly respected and gifted plastic surgeon. His office staff is equally wonderful. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner!"
"Dr. Sherman is wonderful! Two years ago, he repaired my little boy's finger when it was almost severed. Now, you can't even tell where the injury was. And last year, I took the plunge and went to him for lipo after having twins. My belly looks amazing and my thighs are so different now that I can buy pants on-line without ever even trying them on and they fit perfectly. I am thrilled! His staff are superb and he is a true expert in his field. I have already recommended him to several friends."
"My experience with Dr. Sherman was great, the operation went so done perfectly and he and his staff answered any questions I had and made sure I had a safe ans successful recovery, I would recommend him to anyone" J.
"I have found Dr.John Sherman to be the utmost in professionalism and tops in his field of plastic surgery. I have had other doctors perform procedures on me and Dr.Sherman had to correct them or finish the procedure as they did not. His staff as well was professional and courteous. A true pleasure to work with. And it's nice when my friends and family say I look 10 years younger!! Thanks Dr. Sherman!"
"Dr. Sherman removed and re-sealed a scar on my daughter's chest from an emergency heart surgery. He was incredibly kind, patient and knowledgeable. Dr. Sherman took time to explain the procedure and the healing process.I would recommend Dr. Sherman to anyone needing a plastic surgeon, and I would travel to NYC for any elective or necessary surgery."
"After I had a serious bike accident I discovered how flawed the model of patient as shopper for medical services is. Once the ER determined that my eye was not entangled in the broken bones of my face, I was on my own (severely concussed and disfigured) to research eye specialists and surgeons with waits for appointments, conflicting and ambivalent opinions, more delays and trips for labs and films etc. A colleague had suffered traumatic injuries a few years before and I was able to locate her in England she gave me Dr. John Shermans name. His office made time for me the day I called. He took immediate charge of my treatment, in marked contrast to the other doctors I had seen. He made all the arrangements to get me into New York Hospital, met me at the door of the hospital at 6 AM, made sure all the pre-op tests were done post haste, and gave over his weekend to my care, even spending time distracting me with conversation prior to the seven hour operation, and being there when I came out of anesthesia.Besides being a renowned surgeon (which I didnt realize until later), Dr. Sherman is factual, realistic and reasonable. This trustworthiness led me to consult him five years later, when aging began to take its toll. Unlike my ambitious dermatologist, who promotes many treatments as a hairdresser might (with costs that seem to escalate surprisingly), Dr. Sherman did not recommend a whole array of adjustments I didnt feel he was looking at me for what services he could sell me on, rather simply disinterestedly presenting a sensible approach that dispelled many of the marketing myths for various cosmetic processes. So, for reconstructive surgery, he is absolutely top-notch, and for cosmetic work he is equally skilled, as well as honest, which is invaluable in cosmetic work, when ones insecurities make one vulnerable to promotional wishful thinking."
"Dr. Sherman is a great professional taking great pride in his work. With absolutely no hesitation I would recommend Dr. Sherman to any of my friends or family members looking for a top notch doctor in a field of plastic surgery."
"Doctor Sherman is a extremely skilled surgeon with a very friendly and caring staff. He can help you reach your goals with very natural looking results. First Class and Highly Recommended."
"Thank you so much for doing my surgery. I am very pleased! You are the best!"

"Thank you for my new face! I am healing well and am grateful for your kindness and skill every time I look in the mirror. I’ll see you in August when the family gathers at the beach. Blessings to you and your family."
"I wish I could find the words to convey to you how totally thrilled I am with my tummy tuck results! It’s been 5 weeks now, and each day the results seem to be even more amazing! The reactions from my family, friend & co-workers mirror my own amazement at what you were able to do for me. Your talent has truly changed my life! I go from day to day in a supercharged cloud of happiness, finally being proud of how I look. After finally dropping almost 60lbs. Over three years, you gave me the stomach I could never achieve in the gym. You did an awesome job- thank you Dr. for what you did for me. I will always be grateful for the extent of the skill I received, and I pass out your cards to anyone who is in need of your talent! Thank You Dr. Ritrosky!"

"Please accept this small expression of my overwhelming gratitude for all you've done for my son, John...I thank God and I thank you for using your skill and expertise to save John's hand."
"There are not sufficient words to express my appreciation for all you have accomplished for me...People who have known me for many years stop me on the street and tell me how wonderful I look...Thank you, thank you!"
"...Thank you! I went swimsuit shopping...For the first time in years I had a choice in suits and felt good about how I looked...I ended up buying a two-piece!!"

"Dear Dr. Ayala, I am writing to you today to tell you how grateful I am to you for your courage and generosity on my behalf last December. Thank you for affording me you artistic genius and performing my surgery. As I mentioned to you during a few of our office visits!" B.S.
"I am writing this letter to you and your staff for the tremendous care and personal attention that I have received as a Cosmetic Surgery patient. As we all know any type of surgical intervention is a serious decision. I had 100% confidence in your surgical skills and clinical outcomes, however, as a single woman, I was very concerned over having support as a post-operative patient. I needed help! I also wanted "confidentiality". You recommended that i contact D.R. who owns "Helping Hands." it was comforting to know that D. has worked extensively in the Operating room with numerous Plastic Surgeons. She understood my needs! From pre-op hospital check-in to post-op recovery, including transportation, she was there. Her comprehensive surgical support services exceeded my expectations! Thanks for recommending "Helping Hands" D.K., R.N.
"Thank you for helping me through this difficult time. It is always pleasant to come to your office. Everyone is always so positive, cheerful and pleasant. Dr. Ayala, I can never thank you enough for all you've done." J.K.

With much respect and admiration. " C.R.
"I am so happy with the results of my Breast Augmentation. Dr. Lopes was so supportive and caring from my very first visit all the way through my recovery. She gave me exactly what I was looking for, and I am extremely thrilled with my new shape!" J.B.
"I feel great and what a difference it has made! The first week I was a little apprehensive about my decision, but now I couldn't be more thrilled with my Tummy Tuck! Your staff made all the difference. Everyone knows you and treats you like family. They're always very nice and more than helpful. Everything is so very personal, it makes you feel exclusive and super special!" C.B.
"For me my neck has always been an issue. There seemed to be few options outside of surgery. Dr. Lopes did a fabulous job on my neck cords and around the jawline using Botox® Cosmetic. I have no prominent neck bands and a smoother appearance with no down time. Although I have only done injectable fillers and Botox® Cosmetic, Dr. Lopes, is outstanding, warm, approachable and brilliant!" D.C.
"I couldn't be more enthused with Dr. JoAnne Lopes or her staff. To be greeted at the door with a warm smile from her receptionist that continued on throughout the rest of the office staff, was so comforting. Everyone was so supportive throughout the surgery process and continue to do so with my follow up appointments. My tummy tuck results are fantastic!" W.B.
"I was very apprehensive about having Breast Augmentation surgery . Dr. Lopes and her staff's caring and supportive attitudes were very reassuring. I couldn't be more happy with my results and my experience at the Cosmetic Surgery Center!" W.S.
"I am very satisfied with my procedure results and the treatment that I received from the staff and the Cosmetic Surgery Center was outstanding! I have referred several of my friends and will continue to do so. Thanks Dr. Lopes!" M.A.

"I am so fortunate that I found Dr. Lopes. I feel that with all my procedure interests, she truly understood a woman's needs! She has kept me looking fabulous for years!" P.D.
"God gave you the hands of a sculptor. For most of my adult life I have been fighting with a tummy bulge that just wouldn’t go away. Having a c-section many years ago and then having a hysterectomy in Feb. 06 just compounded the problem. I went to a gym and even martial arts but nothing seemed to flatten the gut. It wasn't until I got hooked on the plastic surgery reality television shows where they would perform a procedure called an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) that I decided to look into what was involved and to start saving up for this procedure. I asked around for a recommendation for a plastic surgeon and the consensus was always Dr. Jill Hazen. At that point I decided to call. From the very first phone call I was pleasantly surprised how comforting the voice on the other end of the phone was. I made an appointment for the following week for an initial consultation. When I arrived at the office, everyone was so nice and reassuring that I was doing the right thing. After meeting with Dr. Hazen I felt very comfortable and knew right away that I made the right choice. I met with Suzanne who guided me in the decision process of what was to be done, the price and the date of the surgery. To my surprise, everything went exceptionally smooth. When you're making a big decision such as plastic surgery, there are some doubts that go through your mind however the entire staff is behind you, helping you through the transition. I had my surgery on Aug. 18th, 2006. Obviously there is some discomfort however after seeing some of the results almost immediately, the pain becomes more bearable. It is now three weeks post-op and I couldn't be happier. I can't believe that I was able to attain, finally, a flat belly that before was only something that I dreamed about. If I had to go through it again I would. I wanted it for myself, to look better for myself and to increase my self-esteem. I will no longer have to cover up a flabby belly! I have the rest of my life to enjoy my new self-image!" S.S.
"I never thought of myself as someone who would go in for cosmetic surgery, but I was tired of people telling me I looked tired! From the moment I walked into Dr. Hazen's office, I felt completely at ease. Everyone treated me with respect and warmth. My concerns and questions were all answered and once I made the decision to go forward with the procedure, my recovery was followed diligently. No detail in the process was too insignificant. I really felt that the whole team was there for me. I now look at myself in the mirror and can't believe what I see! Nobody tells me I look tired anymore, and yet nobody can tell I've had any surgery done on my eyes at all. I trust Dr. Hazen completely." J.W.
"Thank you for the perfect mini-facelift. It looks very natural, there are no scars and I feel 10 years younger. You were right about the recovery, it was a breeze. I would like to thank you for caring about me and taking the extra time to call. You have hands of gold and a big heart." D.G.
"Dear Dr. Hazen, Many people are given gifts at birth and then decide to share those gifts by pursuing a profession in which they positively affect the lives of other people. You, certainly, are one of those people. You have used your superior medical training and skills along with your talent as an artist to create an experience fro your patients that positively affects their lives. I recall our first consultation when I was inquiring about my procedure and the warmth and compassion that you displayed answering all of my questions clearly and in a supportive manner. You possess all the characteristics that an outstanding doctor should have - superior medical knowledge and training, a supportive and attentive ear, and a genuine compassion and concern for your patients. All of these characteristics, coupled with your outstanding artistic ability make you a phenomenal cosmetic surgeon! I feel very fortunate to have selected you as my doctor and I thank you sincerely for sharing your gifts and talent with me. With gratitude and appreciation always."
"Bravo! Kind, caring, supportive and work of a true professional with hands of gold. I love you all." L.F.
"I cannot tell you how happy I am with the results of my surgery! Jill is a very considerate doctor who makes you feel extremely comfortable. I absolutely love my new body! Thank you for everything!"
"I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful 'new look' you have given me. Going into this procedure I had high hopes, as I was well aware of your talents. But I never expected to see this dramatic a change in myself for 'so little pain.' Actually, no pain. Many people I know have had similar procedures or know someone who has and they all remark on how natural everything is. Again from the bottom of my heart a deep thank you to you and your entire staff for making this an extremely friendly, pleasant, totally pain-free experience...with a very happy ending for me." E.
To Doctor Walden, Thank you so much for all that you have done for me you literally have changed my life. The aches and pains that I suffered prior to surgery are no longer and I finally feel comfortable with my breast. You are an amazing surgeon. Thank you. Ps. You have a great team & people working at your office. Each and every staff member made me feel comfortable 7 have been very supportive!
Dear Dr. Walden, Sarah & Tracy, I can't begin to tell you how happy I am with the final result! It was with your patience, close attention to detail & incredible bed side manner that helped to make the process so easy. You re a wonderful team & you can count on me spreading the word! Thank you
Dear Dr. Walden, I am very happy with the results of my surgery. You did a wonderful job. You are a great person. Once again, thank you. J.G.
Dear Dr. Walden, Nilsa, and Sarah, I wanted to let you know how happy I am with my experience at your office! Thank you so much for making me feel comfortable from the first day I came in. And especially Dr. Walden, for calming my nerves on the day of surgery and doing such a great job! I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Thank you again for such great care! Sincerely, A.M.
For Many years I had gone back and forth with the idea of getting Breast Augmentation. Finally I decided that this was what I really wanted and was going to follow through with it. The only problem now…was finding the right doctor. Once meeting Dr. Jennifer Walden I had no doubt in my mind that she would be the one to complete the procedure. She made me feel so comfortable with her from start to finish. She is so warm and welcoming. Any questions I had regarding surgery, pain, and recovery were all answered. I was never left guessing. After the surgery I experienced the normal recovery pains that I was well aware of and prepared for. If at any time post surgery during recovery I needed her she was reached and got back to me within minutes, whether it was during office hours or not. Now, One Year After my surgery…I am more than happy with the results. I get so many compliments on them. I hear from many people that the surgery was done so well that they could pass for my real breasts. I have so much more confidence in myself and I wouldn’t change this experience for the world. I owe it all to Dr. Walden. I highly recommend her to all of my friends and family. If at any time in the future I decided to have any other type of plastic surgery done, the only doctor I would see would be her. I’ve never felt this sure about any other doctor I have been to. If there was a way to make her my primary doctor for all medical needs, I would do it in a heart beat!! Thank you so much Dr. Walden!!! You are the Best!! Your Biggest Fan, T.G.
"I don't remember a single time in my life (up until now) that I was happy with how my body looked. I was always so subconscious about my boobs, and they always seemed to get in the way. When I heard about breast reduction surgery it made me nervous and extremely excited at the same time, I knew it was for me. I instantly trusted you and knew that you could be the one to change my annoying problem into fabulous confidence. You and your staff tell it like it is and follow through with everything you say. The other day I went swimming for the first time in three years. It was such a wonderful experience, and I felt more confident in that little bikini than I ever thought I would! Because of you and your staff, I am now a much happier person and love how I look and feel and more ready than ever before to take on the world! I really cannot thank you enough for what you have done for me. Your job allows you to improve peoples lives and you are more than amazing at it!" C.B.
"You are all so super. From the time I started coming there and being greeted by your receptionist to the time I saw Dr. Harrington, I was made to feel good. What could have been a hard ordeal, was made much easier to handle because of all of you. I've felt your support, understanding, love and kindness from the beginning. You've taken time to walk me through it all. You've become like family to me. I'm so blessed to have had the chance to know you and your staff, but especially you, Dr. Harrington, have enriched my life. God's blessings to you all." R.P.
"I just wanted to tell you how thankful I am. I thank God for people like you that put your whole self into your job. You are a very special person that gives very special care to your patients. Thank you very much." K.D.
"I want to thank you for the incredible plastic surgery procedures that you performed on me. You have changed my life, but as you said, "I am no spring chicken", but when I am around my new 31-year old girlfriend I feel like one!" A.S.
"I have no idea what to write to someone who has been an instrumental part of this journey to recovery and repair but...thank you. You and your team have far surpassed my expectations and I appreciate all of the 24-hour support and informative visits with you guys. I look forward to my visits instead of dreading them and I love exchanging laughs. Thanks for making me look good." M.W.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am so impressed with you and your staff. The surgery exceeded my expectations and I have high expectations. Your personality sells you. You are kind, empathetic, professional & give your all to every patient. You make me want to be better as a health care provider. I will continue to refer patients to you." W.G.
"I wanted to thank you for all you and your staff have done for me. I love my new me and so does my hubby!" L.H.
"Dear Dr. Weinzweig, Just a note to say hello, wish you well and let you know how grateful I am for the incredible surgery you performed almost a year ago. I was determined to have you as my surgeon and would travel through a snowstorm again if necessary. Since having the breast reduction surgery, my confidence and desire to improve my physical health have increased greatly. I am beginning to value me and prioritize where my care is concerned. I am exercising, forming a healthier relationship with food, and enjoying shopping for clothes! I am working with a nutritionist and doing strength training. I would be remiss if I did not let you know how much your encouragement and kindness have meant to me. There is no doubt that you are one of those special and gifted physicians who makes it a priority to care for those who are less fortunate. God bless you in your life, work and in all endeavors. I will never forget you!" V.R.
"Dear Dr. Weinzweig, Thank you for everything you did for us during a very difficult time! Your compassion and caring didn’t go unnoticed!" E.M., B.M. & D.M.
"Dear Dr. W., Thank you for everything, your passion and understanding in making people look their best." C.M.
"Dear Doctor Weinzweig, This is your favorite patient, ML! I’m writing to you because I want to thank you for your special care over the past 5 years. I’m thankful that I ended up in your gifted hands after my car accident tat nearly took my life in April of 2003. I feel that no one else could have done the terrific job you did. I was I amazing hands. You also saved my self-esteem. No girl going on 19 would want a face full of scars. The neurosurgeon who was working with you had planned to shave my head but you found another way that saved me from being bald (Thank God!). When people hear the extreme damage that my head and face suffered in the accident, they compliment me and tell me how beautiful my face is, and that you could never tell what happened. I imagine that for the most part patients don’t write letters of thanks to their physicians, but I feel it is important to thank you and compliment you on being a terrific surgeon. I wanted you to know how thankful my family and I are with the excellent care and concern that you still offer us after all the years since my accident. Love & thanks." M.L.
"Dr. Weinzweig, Thank you for the marvelous care you gave both Ed and me. We will never forget you and wish you the very best in the New Year." L.G. and E.G.
"Dear Dr. Weinzweig, If I was ten years younger, I’d be jumping up and down – my nose is looking really great!! Now that I’ve taken a closer look at home, it is exactly as it should be. I look like myself but very much improved. I’m so pleased with your work and I appreciate it more than you’ll ever know." S.T.
"The first time we met, Dr. Weinzweig’s waiting room was chock full but he took his time and talked to me on a person-to-person level. I could have found a specialist in Boston, but after that meeting, my mind was totally made up. Most surgeons will walk in and say, ‘Here’s what we’re doing. See you at the surgery.’ And that would be it. Dr. Weinzweig told me, ‘If you have any questions – no matter how small – call me.’ I‘ve never seen that in a surgeon." J.B.
"Dr. Weinzweig is an excellent surgeon with skills that are only exceeded by his compassion for his patients and their families. He was highly recommended by a Respiratory Therapist who had the pleasure to work with him for many years at a hospital in our area. And that Therapist was my spouse. My wife and I would not hesitate for a moment to fly anywhere in the country to see Dr. Weinzweig because he would be our only physician of choice both for his expertise and compassion." D.G.
"Dr. Weinzweig, Thank you, thank you, thank you. You’ve changed my life! Seriously, you’ve changed my life. My neck and back pain are gone, I fit into any clothes I want, including lingerie (my husband thanks you too!), and I feel so much better about myself on a daily basis. Thank you so much!" J.R.
"Dr. Weinzweig, Thank you for everything. My life is even better now!! It has been a year since the surgery and I am very happy with the results to say the least! It is so wonderful not having that extra worry in the back of my mind…do I look OK, and wondering what other people think. Now I can just relax and enjoy life. It’s amazing what a little bump can do! Ok, or a large bump in my case. Anyway, I almost feel like I’m twenty again. I enjoy myself so much more now and most people’s reaction has been "that haircut really looks great on you!” I just giggle. Thank you for making life even better. Thanks again. In another 20 years when I feel the need to look young, I will look you up!" A.M.
"Dr. Jeff, Thank you so much for helping my little sister!" C.S.
"Dear Dr. Weinzweig, We recently became aware of your wonderful surgical care of Steven who tells us that you knew of Dad’s career in reconstructive surgery. We want to add our thanks and appreciation for your surgical wizardry that helped to reconstruct Steven’s face after the accident. He tells us that he looks "good as new” which, considering the attack he sustained, is a high compliment indeed. We are grateful that he was brought into your care and was made whole again." L.B.
"Good Morning Denise, Thank you for the reminder and I am so looking forward to meeting everybody on Monday. Susan made me feel very comfortable and I really appreciate her taking the time to speak with me on Tuesday of this week. After my last experience with the first surgeon that I had seen I left his office with no hope and felt very empty. I have printed out my forms on line already."
"Thank you very much for the excellent service and results. The staff couldn't be nicer and I'm a very satisfied customer."
"I wanted to let you know that I went into Hall Plastic Surgery and had Betty do a hydrofacial on me (I think that is what it is called). Also, I purchased a clarisonic pro to use at home. I was looking at my skin last night and it looks great! I will be returning for more hydrofacials as I can really see the results. Thanks for letting me know about this wonderful treatment. Regards."
"I just wanted to take the time to tell you and your staff how wonderful I think your office is, I have had a few procedures from Dr. Hall and what an amazing job he has done!! I have also had the botox and perlane injections and was amazed from the results instantly, your staff is so courteous and kind and really goes out of their way to help you and make sure you understand everything. I will never go to another Plastic surgeon or skin Rejuvenation center again, in fact when I got home, my neighbor commented on well I looked along with several other people, its amazing and so is Dr. Hall and all the staff. I am an RN myself so I uphold my standards high and your practice over exceeds my expectations and service, I will recommend to all my friends and family and will send more business your way. Again Thank so Much for your wonderful office, staff, procedure, professional courtesy and all the above, I love you guys.. you have changed my life, I have never felt so better about myself!!"
"Thanks Dr. Hall & Staff for an incredible experience! Ya'all are a great team! God Bless you!!"
"Dear Dr. Hall & Staff, What a "lovely" surprise to get the package of six yummy-smelling candles to help me in my recovery! Thank you "all" so much! I should be getting something for all of you for your help through the last few months leading up to surgery, your "meticulous" execution of the changes I requested, your concern during my recovery. It is for all these reasons that I know I chose your office & Dr. Hall as my surgeon, very wisely!! Thanks, again, for the thoughtful candles. I will enjoy them for some time to come."
"Dr. Hall: Thanks for making my surgery the best experience possible. Your obvious care and concern for me, along with your talent and surgical skills and attention to detail has made all the difference in the recovery which is already complete. Best regards and thanks."
"Good Morning Denise, Thank you for the reminder and I am so looking forward to meeting everybody on Monday. Susan made me feel very comfortable and I really appreciate her taking the time to speak with me on Tuesday of this week. After my last experience with the first surgeon that I had seen I left his office with no hope and felt very empty. I have printed out my forms on line already. Thank you." K.S.
"Dear Dr. Hall, Now that my final visit with you has been completed, I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say how much my wife and I enjoyed meeting you during the time of my Limpoma surgery. In addition to doing an excellent job, you are so easy to communicate with. I'm sure all of your patients feel the same when they meet you…a true, warm caring individual and an accomplished surgeon. Relish every day with your three beautiful children. The time goes by way too fast! Thanks again for taking care of me. I do hope our paths will cross again one day. Warmest personal regards." A.
"To Dr. Hall and Staff - I wanted to take a moment and let all of you know how happy I am with my procedure. I had a full body lift with revised tummy tuck. Dr. Hall, you have the best bedside manner and I appreciate you staying with me later on after my procedure to make sure I was ok. You are professional and real—more Dr.s need to learn from you. I cannot believe how good I look. I'm still a bit swollen 1 month out, but every week I believe gets less and less. This is the first time I have been able to look at myself and feel a confidence in myself. I will definitely use Dr. Hall for all my plastic surgery needs. Thanks for everything." A.
Wanted to give you an update. My eyes are great, no complications, so good in fact I can hardly find the incisions and it's two weeks tomorrow! The suture technique was perfect and left no marks. Color me thrilled! B.
"You are so very welcome. You have quite literally changed my life, and the kindness and care that you showed towards me is something that I truly carry with me every day. I have a big Christmas party on Saturday and will most definitely send you a few photos. Lots to tell you too!" Much love and hugs, E.
"Thanks for everything. Passing without question or concern is wonderful for my self confidence. I have been living 24/7 for a month now. Dreams do come true." G.
"I am very pleased with where I am in my life. Transition has brought me the fulfillment of being a woman and the confidence I could never hold onto as a man. I am so pleased with all of your work and especially appreciate your doing the neck lift last March. I will stay in touch and wish you the greatest fulfillment from your career" G.
"My eyes are beautiful. I love my nose. Wow You are all the greatest as far as I am concerned. Spiegel girls forever!!!!! Who needs Z or O???? I miss you all and am referring other girls to you who are in admiration of your work. Thank you for your support and caring." C.
"I hope all is well with you and Dr. Spiegel, please tell him I said "hello, and thank you again ever so much, I love my face and he made my life pretty much possible, where before it wouldn't have been." M.
"I am happy with the result and have achieved my desire to remove the male traits I didn't like while looking unworked on and natural." J.
"You are such a blessing to our community. When I came to Southern Comfort last fall, I met with four surgeons, I had not met you, nor had I heard of you. When we met for a consultation, I was touched that the first thing you did was listen. You wanted to know me, to know what I wanted. You seemed so humble to me and you still do. You seem to be at peace and love what you do. Your practice is blossoming and that comes from your spirit, I know." R.
"It's always fun talking with you, it will be great to see you again and of course I want your opinion on my recovery. All I can say is that I'm extremely happy happy happy." L.
"Well, thanks again to you and Dr. Spiegel for all your good work and help. I'm still thrilled I did what I did these past 3 weeks, and the whole experience was much easier than I ever imagined possible." K.
"I'm VERY happy with my results. It's almost like you were reading my mind when it came to my nose even though my virtual FFS pictures were not an exact representation of my desire. Perhaps it was when you got a glimpse of my picture folder of actresses all with graceful noses while I was loading my pre-op and vffs pictures in your computer. Whatever, you made me so happy! I look like I was born this way, the woman I should have been. You're a real talent doc." D.
"I am very pleased with my results and with the staff of Bougainvillea Clinique. In my personal opinion, Dr. Hartog is the best and I will recommend him to anyone and I am looking forward to having more procedures done. Thank you." G.P.
"Dr. Hartog and staff surpassed my expectations by leaps and bounds. Their professionalism is unparalleled. The commitment to the patient is one that is not only rare today but goes above the call of duty. The results I received were and are a direct result of all the above and a doctor who is a master at what he does." C.G.
"Dr. Hartog came highly recommended. He carries a very good reputation and his work shows it. I'm very pleased. He truly is a perfectionist and that's what I was looking for." A.R.
"Thank you, again, for the excellent surgery you performed on me in October 2002. Virtually every doctor, nurse, and health professional who has seen me since then has injured as to what did my mastectomy, commenting that the work was “really good” or “amazing”. I am writing to thank you also for referring me to Dr. Jeffrey Wisnicki for my breast reconstruction. Numerous women at my gym to say the second stage reconstruction done in February looks “beautiful”. Last week, Dr. Wisnicki reconstructed a new nipple and I am humbled by the result. It looks perfectly natural! Throughout my life I felt that I was extremely healthy. The diagnosis of breast cancer was an unimaginable shock. thanks to your exceptional skills combined with Dr.Wisnicki, I feel like a healthy person again. I know I am among many who are grateful to have been your patient."
"Dr Wisnicki and staff, Thanks for all the great big smiles you bring! I just want to thank you so much for your generosity. I appreciate it more then you ever imagine. You always do such beautiful work."
"…you’re one in a million! Thanks for making me look good! What fun we had! Thank you so much for choosing me to appear in the show. You did a wonderful job. Thanks again."
"Dr. Wisnicki, I came to your office in 2000/2001 for a breast augmentation. I never did thank you for the "impeccable" job you did. I am so thankful that you were the surgeon who performed my surgery. To this day I have never had any problems. Everyday that I look in the mirror I am so pleased with my results. The best part is that no one every really even suspects that I had the surgery, they look so natural. I know it is long overdue, but again I just want to thank you."
"Just a small token of appreciation for making it a positive experience and helping everything to go well!"
"Dear Dr. Wisnicki and "gang", Thanks so much for "always" taking the very best care of me - and for making me look the best! (and feel that way too!!) Happy Holidays!"
"Dear Dr. Wisnicki, This thank you is long overdue. You performed breast reduction surgery on me in June of 1992. I was only 17 at the time. Now I am 27 and can't even begin to tell you how "positively" the surgery effected me. I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am. I would go through the surgery a thousand times over if I had to. I owe my renewed self-confidence to you on your "tremendous" skill. Thank you!"
"Nicole, Thank you so much for helping me feel comfortable before my surgery. I really appreciate your kindness."
"Dearest Dr. Wisnicki, Thank you for trying to mend my "woes" - it sure is nice! You are a kind and caring person - !! Special Thanks!! Hugs!"
"Dear Dr. Wisnicki, I can't thank you enough for your dedication and care. You are the best of the best!"
"I just wanted to say thank you. You have no idea how you've changed my life; before my surgery I wouldn't show anyone my breast. I didn't even want to look at them myself. Now I feel beautiful. I love my new breast - not necessarily the breasts themselves, but the confidence they give me. I don't feel like I have secrets from anyone anymore. So thanks again and I wish you the best. You change women's lives everyday. You make them feel better about themselves and their bodies and in my mind. That is a great "accomplishment." With Love."
"Dear Dr. Wisnicki, Thank you for your expertise! With your Botox injections I feel 10 years younger. It looks G-R-E-A-T!!"
"I just want to thank you so much for your generosity. I appreciate it more then you can imagine. You always do such beautiful work."
"Dear Dr. Wisnicki, You are someone to whom I shall be eternally grateful. Your kindness and concern resulted in a miracle. The problem on my chest has shrunk "only" because you are a very special doctor and a very special person."
"Thanks for making me look good! Great fun we had! Thank you so much for choosing me to appear in the show. You did a wonderful job you - Thanks again."
"Thank you very much for the exceptional care I’ve been receiving. It’s only been a couple of weeks so far, but I’m so happy with the results! I can’t express enough how grateful I am for being so flexible with your schedule in regards to my surgery date and follow up appointments. Your concern and prompt follow-up to my reaction to the medications is just another example of what an outstanding surgeon you have been! I can’t wait for my recovery period to be over so I can start the shopping for the “new” me. In the meantime, here’s a small token of my appreciation for all that you have done for me!" J.
"Wow! What a completely wonderful experience this has been! I'm amazed at not only your professional and understanding ways, but also how you have treated my family as your family. There has not been one moment of regret. I cannot be happier!" M.
"First of all I would like to say thank you. My stomach looks beautiful. You really did a great job. I’m very healthy and healing fast. I’ve even found time to hang out with my friends. I hope you and your family are healthy and happy. Hope you all have a happy holiday!" M.G.

"Thank you so much for the beautiful surgery I experienced. You mentioned in my initial appointment that I would not look like a movie star- but, I already do. Mahalo for all you do." D.D.S.
"I looked hard and long to try and find a card that expressed how much you all have meant to me today and for the rest of my life. You all have touched me in a way that words can’t explain. I am so forever grateful for what you have done. I honestly felt as though my breast augmentation was out of my reach and you made it all happen for me and you didn’t have to. Thank you so much for everything and I cant say thank you enough. In turn all I can do is express to anyone that asks is how wonderful your practice is as well as how wonderful you all are as people. I often say and feel that people are brought into your life for a reason and you were brought into mine to make me feel better about myself, and you have done that by leaps and bounds. I will continue to refer anyone who is looking for an awesome plastic surgeon and staff to boot to you and am excited to do so. I feel that, that would be the best way that I could ever repay you for your kindness and beautiful work. I also want to thank you for making me feel as though I was your most important patient. I know that both you and your staff are very busy people but that is a testament to you all. So once again thanks you so much for all that you have done. You truly are an artist." A.G.

"I would like to start by saying that you completely changed my life, amazing on how an elective surgery, can make a person feel as though it was recommended. (if that was the right word). I'm so proud and happy that you and your office are apart of my life. Amazing!! What I went through the first time, I expected it to be the same. I was 200% wrong, if you only knew how I really feel from then to now, I am very satisfied with my results, and many years down the line, you will be the one again to do my surgery, if anything should happen.

"Dr. Bindrup came highly recommended to me by a friend that has had multiple procedures performed by Dr. Bindrup as well as she works as a surgical nurse in one of the surgery centers he works in. So, she has worked side by side with many plastic surgeons and since she chose him for her own personal plastic surgeon, as well as sending her own family and other friends to him, then the choice for me was easy once I decided I wanted to have this done. The results were more than I could ever imagine. He did exactly what he said he would do and what the results would be. I couldn't be happier! I listened to him and did everything he told me to do to a "T" and had no complications at all. I highly recommend Dr. Jed Bindrup to anyone in the Salt Lake City area."
"Dr. Bindrup and his staff were so friendly and helpful. They took the time to help me make the right decisions for my body and offered me encouragement. Dr. Bindrup and his staff were very professional and answered all of my questions. If I need anything else done, he is #1 on my list. I also referred a family member and she is thrilled with her results as well. Dr. Bindrup is truly an artist!"
"I cannot believe the difference that larger breast would make in my life. I have the confidence to wear any top proudly. My thin body is now shapely, sexy, and much more attractive that I ever dreamed possible. Thank you Dr. Riou for changing my life."
"Best thing I've ever done for myself. I had the perfect procedure, perfect physician, and now the perfect breasts."
"Thank you for being so kind through my surgery. Your staff was very professional and you did a fabulous job."

"Excellent care from Dr. Lalikos - Danielle's the Best!"

"All I can say is that my breast aug, tummy tuck and lipo that were done by Dr. Turkle turned out way above my expectations. Dr. Turkle is fabulous, and I would recommend her to anyone."
"I would and have recommended Dr. Janet Turkle to anyone who is considering any kind of cosmetic surgery. I had breast augmentation and lift as well as a tummy tuck. I am thrilled with both and have felt my follow up care was beyond what I would have expected. Although the office seems to be busy, I have never felt like a "number". Thanks Dr. Turkle and Staff!!!"
"Dr. Turkle was wonderful, and I am thrilled with my results! She is very friendly and straightforward. She patiently answered my many questions, and my confidence in her was immediate and lasting. I would highly recommend (and have already to my friends!) both Dr. Turkle and her friendly staff."
"To anyone who has ever considered this. I give Dr. Turkle and everyone I come into contact with at the office a 10. My surgery was a the best thing I have ever done. She does great work. I wish I would of did this years before I did. The after surgery care is the best. They are always there if you need something or just need to ask a question."
"I know so many people that have gone to Dr. Turkle and I have heard nothing but good things!"
"My daughter recently had a tummy tuck done by Dr. Turkle who did an excellent job. I am now interested in my own self-improvement!"
"Dr. Turkle gave me great implants 10 years ago. I am still very pleased with them!"
"My friend just got the cohesive gel implant done with you this year, and they look amazing."
"I love the results and would do it all over again in a heartbeat. I've already got to wear some tops that I didn't feel comfortable in before because of the extra skin and fat. I actually feel better about myself as well. I want to also thank you for your kindness during our consultation. I have never done anything like this before and was very nervous."
"I was referred to Dr. Turkle by a friend for breast reconstruction. Her entire team made it so unstressful. From checking in to checking out, everyone is so sweet, warm and friendly. The results of my surgery are beautiful."
"I wanted to tell you how impressed I have been with everything from the initial visit to surgery and the follow up visits. I could not have picked a better group. I feel it's important to let people know when they are doing a good job, because sometimes in health care, the compliments come few and far between. Thanks for everything and keep up the good work."
"I've been wanting to tell you how much your painstaking diligence and artistic touch with my breast reconstruction ordeal. I never expected to feel quite so normal and healthy again. Thank you deeply!"
"I would like to thank each of you for all you have done with me. Dr. Turkle, I am very pleased with my surgery outcome! I look and feel much better with the flab gone! It gives me incentive to walk, exercise and eat better. I have virtually no scar even though I was open from hip to hip. You have done a fantastic job with my surgery and I so admire your skills and patience."
"Thank you for sharing your immense expertise, talent, kindness with me and for putting up with me. I have been blessed by you and your entire staff."
"Just want to tell you how much I love my lips. Thank you!"
"I would like to thank you for everything. Your staff is incredible!"
"Thanks for showing me how professional and caring your office is and just how great you are."
"Thanks for all you have done for me! I feel you did a wonderful job. From the beginning I was confident that I was in good hands. Thanks for caring."
"What a fantastic experience this has been. My gratitude goes to each and every one of you. I am glad I did my "homework" when deciding to have surgery, and if I ever need/want to have something done again, I look forward to another experience with Dr. Turkle and her staff."
"Just a note to say "thank you" to you and all of the girls. Thank you for being so kind and gentle. You did a super …job. To office girls and rest of staff thank you for being so kind, always smiling and friendly. I've never been in a doctor's office with such a warm and welcome atmosphere. It's more like a visit and not just an appointment. I would send any of my friends to you. Thanks again to all."
"Thank you for doing my lips—they look great! The Botox is wonderful too! I really appreciate it!"
"I went to another doctor and he said what an amazing job you did on my breasts!"

All the Best to you Dr. Wire and his staff this holiday season!
Dr. Wire, Just a note to express my gratitude to you and appreciation for my exceptional and "compelling" modification. I must admit I was a bit apprehensive, but in reflection realize my fears were irrational. I am ecstatic and r"ejuvenated", a new awakening, an upsurge, so to speak, and yet "therapeutic". I am truly grateful to you for your meticulous "mastery" in your art and technique. I will forever "endorse" your expertise and advocate your skills. With sincere appreciation
Dear Dr. Wire and Staff, I would like to say thank you for the professional care and friendliness you all gave to me during my visits starting back on November 30th. I'll probably be back again but until then - Be well - Be Happy. -Happy Easter
"I am thrilled with the results of my skincare! After my series of microdermabrasions & laser treatments I have the skin texture I did in my twenties. I love your aesthetician Vianka and the Jan Marini skincare products she recommended for me. Thank you for your professionalism and friendly staff. I feel like a queen when I come to your spa room and look forward to each visit!" L.M.
"I want to thank you for the wonderful job you did on my poor excuse for a bottom. You’re like a wizard with a magic wand, except it is your skill that made the want perform its magic. I have so much enjoyed prancing about in my new figure. It has inspired me to exercise and watch what I eat since I wouldn’t want to spoil your handiwork. Thanks again!" D.S.
"It has been a year ago this month since I underwent breast reduction surgery. At 20 years old I was extremely unhappy with my appearance. Dr. Davis was so personable and understanding with all my questions and concerns. He explained the procedure, benefits and risks thoroughly and made sure I was completely comfortable with everything before proceeding. Even after the procedure, when I ran into a few speed bumps during recovery, he was more than happy to assist me and make sure I was taken care of completely. The entire staff at Aesthetic Surgery Associates made this whole experience so easy. I can honestly say I would do it again without a second thought. Thank you again!" L.S.
"I wanted to take just a moment of your time to thank you and your office staff for all the great care I have received in regards to my recent abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). When I first started to consider this procedure I was very nervous and a little concerned about the way I would feel discussing the issue with stranger. I have since found that no patient is treated like a stranger in your office. Your staff has always made me feel as if I am a movie star patient. Your manner has also made me feel very comfortable and cared for. My questions and concerns have always been treated with decorum and respect. The ladies you employ are very knowledgeable and friendly, familiar without being nosey and always, always smiling. Thanks again for making this a great experience that I can’t wait to tell EVERYONE about!" J.P.
"I had a great experience! People really made me feel welcome and at ease. Professional & Repectful."

"Dr. Bruno, I have had such a "wonderful" experience with you and your staff!!! Your patience, kindness & professionalism has not gone unnoticed. Thank you - I LOVE MY NEW BOOBS!

It has helped me be increasingly hopeful about my recovery from cancer and my ability to live again as well as I can. I thank Dr. Brown for his assistance, too. Your expertise and positive attitude are exceptional. All Best Wishes."
"Dr. Bruno, I just wanted to thank you for all you've done for me. You have given me my life back and you have been wonderful every step of the way. I can't say enough about how wonderful you and Dr. Brown have been. Ps. Thanks Again."
"Thanks for a Great Surgery! The healing is going well. Happy Holidays!"

We pray that you might continue to bless families with good health and may God bless you all for the value you bring to people's lives. Thank you for EVERYTHING.
Dr. Anthony, Thank you for your patience and "dedication" on working to make me a more beautiful woman. The results made me a happier person.
When a woman gets to a certain age, she becomes invisible. Thanks to you, I am no longer invisible.
Thank you so much I cannot express how this surgery has already changed my life. I am sure you hear it all the time. My only hope is that I can tell all of S.F. about how amazing you and your team are. You made me feel comfortable with my body again. Many many thanks!
Your work is the reflection of true artistic genious. What also amazed me is that unlike most artists, you seem to prefer a style of understatement that says let my work speak for itself!
Of course I mean the lipo looks fabulous. You are truly a master of your craft and I look forward to you seeing you in January!
Dr. Anthony is a super star and I can't tell you how many people have said to me what great hands I was in. From the nurse who did the EKG to the pre-registration people to the registration gal and the pre-op nurses at the hospital all these adjectives came up about Dr. Anthony: brilliant, talented, calm, kind, professional, amazing and sweet. I am totally serious, every time they (hospital staff) looked to see who my doctor was they made these wonderful comments. Wow. P.T.
Not only did Dr. Anthony gently guide me through the process of transforming my body, he was also persistent in ensuring he delivered my desired results. His exceptional attention to detail throughout the entire process has been extremely motivating. He has truly changed my life. K.R.
After having twins I hated looking at my body for years. Now after a masterful Mommy Makeover, not only am I now strutting around in a bikini, I feel like I have my life back! Dr. Anthony is superb! J.F.
Dr. Anthony, Thank you for doing such a beautiful job on my lips. You are the best. Smiles, (name redacted)
"I just want to thank you for your wonderful staff and professionalism! You answered all my questions and I love my results. You'll never know how much of a wonderful impact you've had on my life!"
"I felt like going with [Dr. Nachbar] because two of my friends had wonderful experiences and great results and I value my friends' opinions. From the minute I met Dr. Nachbar I knew he was the one."
"It was a wonderful experience working with Dr. Nachbar and his staff. I absolutely love my results."
"Highly recommend. Very nice office; relaxing atmosphere. Impressed with Dr. Nachbar. Price was reasonable!"
"Everyone is great. Very friendly and helpful."
"I just want to thank Dr. Nachbar for all he has done for me."
"After several meetings, Dr. Nachbar was the one for me. He was by far, the beast of all I had met."
"It was a wonderful experience, thanks to you all!"
"Wow what an awesome team you have - Dr. N., you are fabulous! Who says dreams don't come true - mine did - I love your work! Thank you!"

"Excellent, couldn't be happier. Exceeded my expectations."
"Dr. Kurley, Just wanted to say thank you for giving more than a fair price on my surgery! I have always appreciated and respected your thoughts on any and all surgeries that I have ever wanted to do. Even though I might not have liked what you told me, I know that you have my best interests at hand. I love the fact that you take pride in your work and you are a perfectionist at what you do. I wouldn't trust my body with anyone else! Thanks for being you!"
"Dear Dr. Kurley, It is just past my two week mark for if I had written at my first week, my comment would have been, "What have I done?" I must say I am enthralled and pleasantly amazed at this point, and you were correct in remarking that I would feel differently at four months than at one week. I think I relate it’to childbirth, that the pain is soon forgotten. Mainly my reason for writing is to comment on my experience with your practice, and not the least of it with you. I totally like your style or should I say "bedside manner". Your office is efficient and refreshing with a feeling that I am not one of the many, but THE one. Your staff is compassionate and professional. I am so amazed at my memory of the day of surgery in that it felt completely comfortable. The nurses were good, real good. Your wife, Barbara, was so incredible by making me feel nurtured and secure in her wonderful attention. I hope you will express to her how so valuable she is, for in the brief time I was in her care it is one of my most intense positive personal experiences. I liked the nurse anesthetist who instilled my confidence and must admit I never got to count back from one hundred since I was gone before I knew it. At one point I thought some of what happened in that first week wasn’t shared with me ahead of time, but my husband put it succinctly in that no one would have it done if you did, and so I agree. I also want to mention Terry Sturdyvin, who I felt totally comfortable with. She is a great Patient Care Counselor. She has a quality any person can bond with and makes it a happy time. Her personality is a true asset for the work you do. Your pre and post surgery booklet of instructions is a great idea and was invaluable to me as I referred to it several times. I like the touch of the CD for relaxation also. It was cute and helpful. Early on in my consult with you, you had sent me a questionnaire which I didn’t return because for me it was too early to make a qualified evaluation or perhaps the questions ere not totally applicable to me, but I needed to send these personal comments and although I feel you are my best kept secret, would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone. Thank you for being there and for being you."
"I am 37 years old, and after gaining weight and having 2 children, I was very unhappy with my body. In the past year I started working out and losing weight and lost a total of 45 pounds. Although I couldn’t have been more pleased with my weight loss, it left my abdomen area skin hanging, lose and ugly. No matter what I did to try to.tighten my stomach, nothing seemed to work. One day I was talking to a friend that had a tummy tuck procedure preformed in Champaign at Dr. Kurley’s office and was extremely happy with her results. I was very skeptical because of unpleasant past experiences with other plastic surgeons. I found the plastic surgeons that I have consulted with, and actually had a procedure done in the past, to be very pretentious and made me feel like I was actually bothering them to ask questions or voice concerns. However, my friend asked me to at least have a consultation with Dr. Kurley. Wow, am I glad I did. It literally changed my life. Upon meeting Dr. Kurley and his staff I knew right away that I was going to make the decision to have a tummy tuck procedure at his practice. I found his staff to be some of the friendliest and caring people I have ever encountered in a physician's office. Barb was my recovery nurse, and I don't know what my husband and I would have done without her the day of my surgery. She was sincerely concerned with my well being that day and couldn’t have taken better care of me. Also, I was very impressed with his assistant Tern who answered so many questions each time I came to the office or called on the phone. His staff always took the time and never seemed bothered by whatever my concerns had been, which is opposite of the experience I had previously with other offices. Upon each of my check-ups, Dr. Kurley seemed to be just as happy as I was with my recovery and results — and let me tell you about my results. This surgery exceeded all expectations that I had hoped for. I started in 2006 a size 12; however, by working out and losing weight previously, I was between a size 8 and 10 going into surgery. My hopes for my results of a tummy tuck would be to get rid of the hanging abdomen area and maybe be a constant size 8. After full recovery, I’m thrifled to say I am a size 4 and have never had so many compliments in my entire life. I feel like a completely different person with my body’s new look and have never been more pleased that I chose Dr. Kurley and his staff. Thank you!!!"
"Dr. Kurley and Staff, I wanted to thank everyone at Dr. Kurley's office for making my surgery a comfortable and amazing experience. From the first consultation, I felt at ease and very confident with my decision to have surgery at your office. Dr. Kurley-you are amazing! I am so happy with my results!! Terri was very pleasant and informative and I felt I could ask her anything! Thanks again to EVERYONE that made my experience better than I ever hoped for."
Dear Dr. Pertsch, Thank you for doing my ears again. I appreciate it very much! Thanks again. Sincerely, C.G.
Dr. Pertsch, Thank you for being trustworthy, reliable and caring. Respectfully, C.S.
To Dr. Pertsch & Staff, I want to let you know I'm very, very happy. You did so much for me in so many ways. You all are so very wonderful and made me feel comfortable, pre-op and post-op. Thanks again. ... and the results were outstanding! See ya soon, B.H.
Dr. James Pertsch, Just a card to say thank you for always caring and being there for me during my recovery period! You are a wonderful doctor. P.S. Thank you for trusting in me as a patient and believing that I would come through with my payment plan A.H.
Dr. Pertsch — Thank you for taking such good care of M. Thanks, B.B.
Dear Dr. Pertsch & Staff, Thank you so much for the positive experience I had with my rhinoplasty. From the consultation to the surgery, everyone in the office was helpful, kind and well informed. I look forward to recommending your office to my family and friends. Sincerely,
Dear Dr. Pertsch & office, I wanted to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the last few weeks and the immeasurable kindness & service you have done for me. Having rhinoplasty was a very last minute decision this summer, and I approached the experience with a lot of trepidation and doubt—but from the moment I entered your office, all that changed. Thank you Dr. Pertsch for an experience so well guided & virtually painless. Having so painlessly fixed a problem I've carried for years, and met you and your friendly & amazingly supportive staff, has been a true highlight of my summer. As the swelling rapidly subsides each day, I love my new nose! I can't tell you how impressed I am with your work and great team environment there. I wish you all the very best. Sincerely, M.C.T.
"Dr. Fernau is a skilled and gifted surgeon who takes a conservative approach to cosmetic surgery. He has surrounded himself with a competent, supportive, and knowledgeable staff which ensures each patient is in good hands through out the entire process. The quality of my life has been significantly enhanced as a result of my cosmetic procedures. I would like to thank Dr. Fernau and his staff for a positive experience." C.
"Dr. Fernau is a meticulous surgeon and strives for perfection on every procedure he performs. He has a wonderful bedside manner and always took the time to answer my questions. I have had multiple procedures performed by Dr. Fernau and I am very pleased with the results. I have also recommended Dr. Fernau to my family and friends." L.C.
"Dr. Fernau was recommended to me by a friend who had previously seen him and liked him very much. My reason for seeing him was to see what he could do about the acne scars and deep wrinkles in my face. I have always been embarrassed by the way I looked and would always walk with my head down. Dr. Fernau suggested a face lift and laser treatment. My only condition on the face lift was that I wanted it to look natural. I got my wish. Dr. Fernau did a fantastic job. I am the happiest person alive. The face life took away a lot of the wrinkles, but the laser really made my face look smooth. I now walk with my head held high and with confidence. I get compliments about how young I look and how great my skin looks. Dr. Fernau’s staff is fantastic; they make you feel like you are his one and only patient and that you are special. Dr. Fernau is kind, caring, and listens to you. Would I have this done again by Dr. Fernau? YOU BET!!! In a heartbeat…" A.
"In October 2008, I decided to have an abdominoplasty, (tummy tuck), done for medical reasons. I turned to the skill and professionalism of Dr. James L. Fernau, as I have done In the past. He was very thorough in all aspects of pre-surgical tests and medical information needed for surgery. Surgery went well and my post surgical care was excellent! Because I Have has previous cosmetic surgeries by Dr. Fernau, I knew that I would be in good hands and would achieve the results that I needed. Well, my results were more than I expected!! Dr. Fernau gave me a new and tight tummy area. I went from a size 12-14 to a size 8 and lost 30lbs. It literally gave me a youthful shape again! The medical issues that I had developed, three years ago, from a renowned hospital in Cleveland, had been taken care of by Dr. Fernau as well. He gave me my life back! So, from a reconstructive and cosmetic standpoint, I was extremely pleased with everything and would recommend Dr. Fernau for any surgery without any hesitation! Pre-surgical, operative, and post operative surgical care and support was always there. Results...outstanding." K.
"After having two children and recently losing 25 pounds, my breasts were unsatisfying to me. The body I worked so hard for wasn’t perfect in my eyes. There had to be something I could do, and of course there was. My husband and I went on several consultations to well qualified surgeons and found that Dr. Fernau was perfect for the job. He and his staff are professional and well educated. He uses the latest techniques and methods. I was very impressed. He explained the procedure thoroughly, answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable. I showed concern about the pain. He assured me I would be taken care of. I felt very prepared having all my medications before my surgery. I felt confident in Dr. Fernau and was excited about the surgery. My recovery was fast and easy. I am very very happy with the results. They are exactly what I wanted. I know have the confidence and the breasts to go with my body. I would go to Dr. Fernau for all my esthetic needs. He is a very competent surgeon. I have already referred him to friends and family." L.
"I am 34 years old, 120 lbs, 5’5 Y2”. I have two young children, both of which I nursed for nine months. I do plan on having more children and plan to nurse only briefly. Before the surgery I was an unhappy 34 AAA bra size. I was tired of padded bras, the limited selection of clothing I was able to wear, and my overall androgynous appearance. I approached my OB/GYN regarding breast augmentation surgery. He stated that he would not recommend the surgery because of risks involved and that implant replacement would be necessary in the future. Because I had completed research on the risks (and rewards) of breast augmentation, I already knew these risks and wanted my OB/GYN to recommend a doctor to perform this surgery. The OB/GYN recommended Dr. James K. Smith because he had examined Dr. Smith’s patients and knew first-hand of his good work. Dr. Smith was very professional in the pre-op consultation. He explained everything: risks, benefits, sizes, costs, and also answered all of my questions. He would use Mentor Smooth Spectrum saline-filled implants. The implants would be placed under the muscle via a crease incision. He was very confident in his abilities and that made me feel very confident about the surgery. I was also able to discuss size and elicit his opinion with regard to my frame. I completely trusted his opinion and was comfortable with the size we chose (320cc’s/C bra size). In addition, Dr. Smith made me feel at ease with the surgery. He gave me prescriptions for medications to bring the day of surgery. The surgery went very well. The pain, which was expected, was excruciating after the surgery, to be honest. My husband took a week off work to help with my recovery and the children. The pain medications helped immensely. It was hard not to be able to lift or reach for anything. Picking up the baby or reaching for a bottle on the top shelf was out of the question. However, the next week when my husband returned to work, I had to do things for myself and perform everyday tasks as if I did not have the surgery. I was slow but I did pretty well lifting an 18-pound child in and out of his crib and changing diapers. I also had a lot of help from my 5 year old! Within 2 weeks, I was able to go back to my regular exercise routine (treadmill and various lower body nautilus machines). Today, I am 4 months post-op and very pleased with my results! Dr. Smith was wonderful to work with and did an excellent job; a complete professional. I look exactly the way I wanted to look and am my "nursing size,” which is what I had requested. My crease incision scars have healed nicely and I have had no complications. I would highly recommend Dr. Smith to anyone who wants this surgery. In fact, on my first bra shopping trip, the saleswoman who assisted me with my new measurements asked if I could divulge my plastic surgeon’s name and phone number. Of course I was complimented and delighted to tell her that information!" T.R.
"On April 2, 1998, I underwent Mons chem surgery with nasal tip and supratip defect. I was referred to James Foley M.D.; F.A.C.S. by Dr. Noel A. Hague. On April 4, 1998, an axial advancement flap was done on my nose by Dr. Foley. On a scale of one to ten, I would definitely rate Dr. Foley a triple ten because of the excellent grafting he did plus his wonderful personality, skill and expertise in this field, along with the office staff that are always willing to help you with any questions or problems. I would never hesitate to refer (if asked) anyone to Dr. Foley for plastic surgery or skin grafting as I know he would give then 100%+ on anything he, or the office staff, do." W.
"My experience with Dr. Foley and his staff was outstanding. I have had two major procedures done by Dr. Foley and found him to be a very knowledgeable and caring doctor. His office staff is also very friendly & professional. During my recovery, Dr. Foley and his staff went out of their way to make sure that I was doing fine. I would highly recommend Dr. Foley. What a nice man!" B.
"This letter conveys my appreciation and gratitude for Dr. Foley’s excellent care throughout two daunting surgical operations. My first surgery was a breast reconstruction due to loss of my breast because of cancer. Dr. Foley fully explained the procedure and made me feel as comfortable as possible during a very stressful time. In addition to the breast reconstruction, he also uplifted my opposite breast. He absolutely insisted on making as many adjustments as necessary to that my breasts would match each other. I can now say that I think my figure looks better than before my cancer! As a result of my increased confidence, I decided to have a face lift. I am also very pleased with the results of this second operation by Dr. Foley. Now I look as young as I feel!" L.
"Cosmetic surgery, while it is very exciting, is very frightening as well. You want to look the "best" and have the "best" physician perform the surgery. After contacting many surgeons and reading their backgrounds, I decided to go with Dr. Foley. He has many years of experience and is ranked among the Top 10 Cosmetic Surgeons in the Twin Cities area. I found Dr. Foley to be very thorough an d attentive. He explained the procedure I was about to undergo in-depth and listened to my many questions, answering each of them in detail. Dr. Foley and his staff also provide a very warm, comfortable and friendly atmosphere. If considering cosmetic surgery, I recommend Dr. Foley very highly, and to me, he is the best. Thanks to Dr. Foley, I am a much happier person today." L.
"I had a breast augmentation by Dr. Lehman, and it has made a huge difference in my life as far as my self-confidence is concerned. I now feel like my body is in proportion and shopping for clothes is a pleasure. It was always something I wanted to do but was nervous about until I talked to a friend who had the surgery. It is one of the best things I have ever done for myself, and I would definitely do it again. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and a pleasure to work with." E.P.
"Thank you, Doctor Lehman and the entire staff at Legacy Plastic Surgeons! I love my new figure! Dr. Lehman, I want to thank you for giving me back my figure (the way it was before two C-sections)! I am able to see my feet! I am able to wear any type of clothing and tuck my shirts in! You have truly made a difference for me personally. I did it for me and I couldn't be happier!" L.J.
"I had a rhinoplasty by Dr. Lehman, and I couldn't be happier. I didn't want a huge change or a tiny nose that didn't fit my face. He just smoothed out the bump and made it a bit smaller. I love it! I still look like me, only better! I wish I'd done it years earlier. In addition, Dr. Lehman and his staff were so kind — they gave me great care throughout the whole process." S.S.
"I had surgery for my double chin at Legacy Plastic Surgeons. I had lost a fair amount of weight and loved my new figure, but I still had a "double chin." The downtime was minimal, and now I feel like my face matches the rest of my body. This is one of the best things I've ever done for me." T.L.
"I have been extremely happy with the results of my eyelid surgery. From the beginning, Dr. Lehman listened to my concerns, and he and his staff all helped me to understand the entire procedure. I had droopy upper eyelids and puffy bags under my eyes. The surgery didn't take long, and my recovery went fine. I was healing well and looking pretty good after a week. By the time three weeks had gone by, I would really see the results. I looked more refreshed and younger around my eyes than I had in years! I have recommended Dr. Lehman to many people since I had this surgery. I felt I was in good hands!" K.T.
"As a “60 Something” retiree my reasons for having a facelift and eyelid surgery were to look better, not different. My friends, former colleagues at work and even my sister who lives in another state have all commented that retirement must be agreeing with me because I look great! I am so pleased with my natural appearance, you are an artist! I have never felt so cared for as a patient and cared about as a person as I did with you, Dr. Hoffman. You have a wonderful gift. I will be pleased to share my experience with other patients who are anxious about facelifts and eyelid surgery." B.L.
"I wanted to take a minute and drop you a note and thank you for the kindness you showed both Tom and me. We feel so fortunate to have been able to meet you and have you for our Doctor. You are just the best. Your bedside manner couldn’t be better. You made us feel so at ease. I love a doctor that is professional, but yet friendly and who can laugh and smile. Our eyelid surgeries couldn’t have turned out better. We will be sending our friends to you." J. T.
"Thank you for the before and after pictures. What a huge difference! I am so glad Alex was able to have the surgery. He looks great! He is doing very well and enjoys first grade. He is thrilled about having his photos on the internet. I think it could be a great learning tool for him to be able to use his past experiences to help and encourage others." L.
"After I met you and you spent over an hour with me and respectfully answered all of my questions I knew I wasn’t dealing with just another Doctor and Nurse. As a nurse myself I knew I had met a couple of professionals who cared about me. Our decision to work with you was easy! Your recommendations and patient references were outstanding. The way the entire procedure was handled, so efficiently and for my convenience, from appointment scheduling to the day of surgery and after were beyond my expectations. I want to express my deepest appreciation to you, Dr. Hoffman, for your knowledge and skill and the thought you put into the preparation for the safety and successful outcome of my surgery. The feelings I had from one week to the next about my self image is one area I could not anticipate. When I fit into my summer dresses it was truly an incredible feeling. I had been working out for two years but hadn’t been able to shed the pounds and inches. You not only opened the doors to my wardrobe but also the doors to other areas of my life. I no longer hide myself under baggy clothes, and when the kids want me to take them swimming I’m as excited about it as they are!" S.H.
"I wanted to say thank you. From the first consultation, up to the day of my surgery and through all of my follow up appointments, I knew I was in good hands. You treat your patients with great care and concern Dr. Hoffman, which I think says a lot about you. The staff at the hospital where I had my surgery were wonderful as well. If I know of anyone that is considering plastic surgery, I will highly recommend that they consult you. I am so happy that I decided to have this procedure done and I am thrilled with the results! Thank you so much. You are an outstanding surgeon and professional." P.K.
"I want to thank you for the special care and extra time I was given. It’s not that common in today’s pace to have the TLC. I fit in clothes I haven’t worn in years and this summer I wore a bikini. I love my “new body”." T.M.
"I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful care that you have given me before, during and after my surgery. The experience has been a very positive one for me. I can’t believe it’s really me! I asked my husband what he thought…all he could say was “Whoaaa” He says that a lot now! He always told me that he thought I looked great the way I was, but I guarantee that he is just as thrilled as I am about how I look now. Thank you for everything." L.C.
"I wanted to drop a note to express my gratitude for the care you have given me. It is obvious that you love what you do because you are so wonderful and caring at it. Even before my “new look” you made me feel beautiful, and I knew that all my hard work (exercise) would pay off. You made me feel wonderful the day I met you and you continue to do so with each visit. You have given me back my body and I can’t thank you enough. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Please know that you are greatly appreciated." A.T.
"Many thanks for the wonderful care and attention I received throughout my Breast Augmentation procedure. The extra time and attention you and your nurse gave me during the consultation and sizing session really helped answer all my questions. I knew I had found the right doctor to do my surgery. Everything turned out beautifully, I love my new shape! I had wanted to have this surgery for a long time and I am so glad I did it. I feel so much better in my clothes and bathing suit. Thank you again for taking the extra time to make sure I got the shape I’ve always wanted!" K.S.
"I am completely thrilled with my entire experience. From phone calls to consultation to surgery and follow-up, I found everyone at Plastic Surgery Center of Tampa to be helpful, informative, professional, and enjoyable! I would not hesitate to recommend friends to you! Thanks to all of you, especially Dr. Jaime Perez, for a great experience!" M.
"Dr. Perez and Staff - First, I want to start by telling you and your staff, thank you very much for my new look. If it wasn't for you, Dr. Perez, I would't be looking this good. My breasts were deformed and hard, but due to your unbelievable talent they now look awesome! Thank you so much, you are truly an artist." F.
"Dr. Perez I want to thank you for your professionalism and the great attention you and your staff showed me from day one. I am so happy with the outcome of my surgery. I am 52yrs old and now feel like a new woman. My breasts are back in position and my tummy is flat as a board. My confidence is over the roof and I see the twinkle in my husband's eye. We both can't wait for our get away vacation to show your work off. I am truly grateful and thank you again from the bottom of my heart." B.
"Thank you so much for the amazing job you have done!! I am so happy with my results! You truly have been given the special gift and use that to make people feel beautiful, physically and mentally!! Again thank you so much!!" A.
"Dr. Perez is a phenomenally talented surgeon. Living in Tampa, I had my choice of leading plastic surgeons from top-tier medical schools in Florida, but Dr. Perez was more impressive and more of a perfectionist than any of them. Under Dr. Perez's care, my transformation was remarkable." A.
"I have recommended Dr. Peterson to all of my friends and even random people! I had breast implants 3 years ago and I am still loving them! No one believes me when I tell them that I have implants. They look so natural and fit my body perfectly! Dr. Peterson did an amazing job and I would recommend him over anyone. ...I live in KC and everyone asks me why I went all the way back to Topeka to get them done. I said because I wanted the BEST and Dr. Peterson was a doctor I trusted! Thanks so much Dr. Peterson!! You will have my business always!! :)" L.H.

"Dr. Hensel, Michele, and Staff, Plastic Surgery - Testimonial Thank you so much for everything. You all have been nothing but wonderful. I’m so happy I went ahead and did the surgery now instead of waiting. I can’t even tell you how much I love them!" S.
“I never thought I’d get back to my ‘before’ pregnancy size but thanks to the very experienced surgeon, Dr. Hensel, I’ve never looked better. I’ll be in touch for more procedures soon!” L.

“I have to tell you about my Halloween experience! Before Dr. Hensel, I would have never dreamed of wearing anything that exposed my abdominal area. He has made it beautiful! And when people heard I had THREE kids they all said, “NO WAY!” 🙂 You guys rock and Dr. Hensel, well, what can I say except he is totally fabulous!” J.
"Thank you for all of your love and support. I would not feel prepared at Miss USA without your love and generosity! S.

"Breast implants went great! I got breast implants from Dr. Rhodes less than a month ago and I couldn't have hoped for better results! I was in surgery for about an hour and back to work on the 4th day after. He is a great Dr. I highly recommend him!" T.
"So glad I did it! Dr Rhodes was AMAZING. I considered cosmetic surgery for years but I was afraid it would be too embarrassing or uncomfortable or painful. After so many recommendations from people to go to Dr. Rhodes I finally decided to do it. I am so happy I did, he was so professional, so knowledgeable. I was not embarrassed or uncomfortable at all. The result was amazing, I should have done it years ago. Dr. Rhodes is hands down the best surgeon around."
"I am only 25 and I had a varicose vein that was uncomfortable and made me self-conscious. Dr. Rhodes took it out for me. He's the best doctor ever!" L.L.
"Dr. Rhodes is the best surgeon around Dr. Rhodes works wonders. My son was in desperate need of some reconstructive surgery following an accident and I searched and asked around a ton for a good surgeon. Every reference I received was for Dr. Rhodes and now I know why. He was helpful, patient, and so smart. I wouldn't have trusted my son in anyone else's hands and recommend Dr. Rhodes to anyone needing any kind of reconstructive or cosmetic surgery."
Dr. Rhodes & Staff, Thanks!! For a great job! You made it all so pleasant from start to finish 🙂
Dear Dr. Rhodes, Thank you for all you did to make my surgery go well. You are a wonderful physician and we are grateful for that. Thank you
"Dr. Rhodes & Staff" I just wanted to thank you for your kindness and patience.
Dr. Rhodes, Thank you so much for taking care of me & the cyst over my eye. I really appreciate your kindness.
Dr. Rhodes, Thank you so much for doing my surgery. I can already tell a huge difference and I'm way excited. Loads of thanks!
Dr. Rhodes, I just wanted to write a quick note to tell you thanks for an awesome outcome to my surgery. I am so excited. You made me feel comfortable with my decision to have liposuction and now I can wear my bikini without shame. You are wonderful! T.B.
Dear Dr. Rhodes, Thank you for taking care of my broken nose. I was scared but when you brought in the hammer, I started laughing. Now I can play basketball again. J.T.
Dear Dr. Rhodes, Thanks a million for being such a skilled plastic surgeon! I never dreamed I could look like I do. Your staff was very kind and helpful and I couldn’t be happier with my results. A.E.
After running a full 26.2 mile marathon I realized I could get myself in excellent physical condition, but I could not change my body shape. I wanted a womanly figure, but what I had was a square midsection. Working out just wasn’t enough to overpower genetics. It has been six years since you performed liposuction on my abdomen and I still see the benefit! I feel like you really listened to me and used your skills to give me the results I had been seeking. Thank you Dr. Rhodes for changing my perspective of myself! S.S.
Doctor Rhodes, Thank you very much for giving me a new face and a better feeling about myself when meeting people…Now my goal is service with a smile the rest of my days. I am sure in your lifetime you have helped thousands of people that have been hurt and disfigured, making them whole again. My facelift was very vain but I feel lifted and whole again too. You are a great and gifted surgeon. C.N.
"Dear Dr. Danyo, Words cannot express how much I appreciate all you have done for me. I hope you realize what an artist you are. Every day I see my new body and wonder. Needless to say, I am very happy with my results and the relative ease of the whole process from consultation to last visit. You have a wonderful support staff. Their friendliness and professionalism are a real asset to your practice. Thanks for helping me achieve the "new me"."
"Dear Dr. Danyo & staff: Please accept my gratitude for taking such excellent care of me throughout my surgery. From day one I felt that you really took the time to hear me, understand what I was looking for, and answer all of my questions. That made my decision to use you for my procedure very easy & comforting. The care I've received following surgery has been equally comforting & appreciated. Coming to a doctor that makes you feel respected enough to share private & personal medical concerns is so valuable & an area where you truly excel most of all. I love my new look!! Thanks for a job well done from start to finish!"
"Dear Dr. Danyo, I just wanted to take the time to write you and personally thank you for all that you have done for me over the past year and a half. I never thought I would have a plastic surgeon, but I sure am lucky it was you. You are one of the best surgeons I have ever had and I couldn't be happier with the final results of my breast reconstruction. I knew the new breast would look pretty close to the other one after speaking with you and looking at pictures, but you exceeded all of my expectations. Other doctors and surgeons have even made comments on how well the new breast looks and how impressed they are with your work. I also wanted to thank you for being such a kind and generous person. I never had a surgeon that actually called me the night before my surgery to give me a "pep" talk, but you did. And when I ended up back in the hospital for a few infections, you stopped in to check on me regularly. I saw you more than some of my own family and friends. I commend you for your commitment to excellence and your passion for perfection. I didn't think it would matter to me for the new breast to have to look as good, but now that I have a "perfect" breast, I see the importance of it and can't imagine having anything less. I certainly hope I don't ever have to have any more plastic surgery in the future, but if I do, you will be the first phone call I make. Thank you again for being such a great surgeon and a wonderful person. I would also like to thank your entire staff for being so great to me." K.C.
"Dear Dr. Danyo, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all that you have done for me. You have helped ease the transition during one of the most difficult times in my life. Although the diagnosis of breast cancer often imposes many unwanted losses in one's life, I can truly say that your God-given ability has helped me accept the loss of a breast and has my view of sexuality and has allowed me to embrace a new more positive self-image. Words cannot fully express my gratitude. A gift cannot fully measure up to the overwhelming appreciation that I have towards you. I can only hope that this brief note somewhat displays the depths of my emotions. Dr. Danyo, you are a talented surgeon. I pray that God will continue to bless you and your family. I pray that He (God) will prosper you so that you can continue to be a blessing to others. You have brought beauty from the ashes and for that I will always be grateful. Your thoughtfulness is appreciated so much." D.J.
"Dr. Danyo & Staff I am 6 months (10/10/2006) post operative Breast Reduction and I want to say thank you! Your surgical skills (Gift) are amazing, your staff of wonderful ladies are the best, always greeting me and having me feel special each and every visit. My primary doctor & endocrinologist here in the city of Dover Delaware stated, "What a great job, no scarring!" and I tell them you are the best! 'Feeling better, doing better, and looking better.'" B.W.G.
"Dear Dr. Danyo, Thank you for saving my thumb. My entire life I have worked with my hands. Because of your work, I am able to work and support my family. I feel that in a way, you saved my life! I am forever grateful [sic]. I hope that you live a wonderful life and that you can help others for many years. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" J.
"Dear Dr. Danyo, Thank you, thank you, thank you! My recent abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and breast augmentation on January 3, 2007 were a complete and total success. I am absolutely thrilled with the results. I cannot wait to put on my new bikini (the first I have purchased in at least 25 years) this summer. I look forward to flaunting my new "55 year old body" to all those 20 something's on the beach. The scar from the abdominoplasty looks better every day. You can't even see it when I put on my new bikini. You can't see the incision from the breast augmentation either since it is in the crease under the breast. The information you provided prior to the surgeries was amazing and right on target. You pinpointed exactly what emotions, level of pain and/or discomfort, need for medications, swelling, bruising, etc., I would experience. This information proved invaluable not only to me but to my husband and son, as well. It gave them a heads-up so that they were totally prepared even more than I was. I thought it would take many months before I felt like doing anything. However, within a week I was back to taking my daily walk. My husband gets a kick out of going places with me and having bartenders, waiters, and other male patrons check me out. He is always sure to put a protective arm around me as he stakes his claim. I must admit I like the reactions I get when I walk in a room! I have had so many people comment that "you don't look like you're 55 years old; you look so young." I just feel so young and it is all because of you. I am so glad that I had these procedures done. I know that if there is anything else I want done (in the way of plastic surgery) you will be my doctor. Your expertise, caring, kindness, thoughtfulness, and warmth made this an experience I would recommend to anyone. Again, thank you for everything." C.
"Dear Dr. Danyo: Thank you so much for the amazing care you gave me through my surgical procedure, especially post-op. I spent a lot of time researching breast augmentation & doctors before I consulted with you. The first time I met with you, I knew I felt comfortable and confident about choosing your services for my procedure. The results are great and I couldn’t be happier. I truly appreciate how attentive, caring and concerned you were when I encountered sharp pain over the Thanksgiving holiday. Your patience and concern means so much to me – I have already passed your name along to some friends and family members & I would be happy to be a reference to prospective patients. Sean mentions your name on almost a daily basis because we drive by your office so often. He often asks, “Why can’t we go see Dr. Danyo? It’s fun at his office!” I wish you & your family all the best for a wonderful Christmas and New Year’s! You are truly an amazing person."
"Hello, I hope this note finds you well & in good spirits. I was at your office today and wanted to take a moment to thank you "all" for your courteous manner. I think I was overwhelmed by the information and had not eaten and felt ill all of a sudden. Thank you for the crackers, juice and time to collect myself. It was quite kind. Thank you so much. The office, too, I might add which I noticed upon my arrival is very pleasing to the eye - color, art, furniture, accents! The fish tank in the telephone booth is simply artistic! The receptionist & staff were lovely & professional. I appreciate your patience & gentleness. Much success to you."
"Dear Dr. Laskowski: On September 10, I had a mastectomy and TRAM reconstruction. Drs. Thomas Mammen and Joseph Danyo performed the surgery at your Wilmington Hospital location. I knew then that I was in capable hands, and my husband and I trusted their expertise. Since the surgery I have come to know each as extremely compassionate individuals. I would rank the 'bedside manner' of each, on a scale of 1 to 10 with10 being the highest, as 11. They are sympathetic, supportive and always give me the time I need to discuss concerns. Additionally, each has a caring and responsive office staff, all of whom are essential to my emotional welfare as I strive to beat breast cancer. From Friday evening September 10 until Wednesday, I was in Wilmington Hospital room 546A During that time, I received exceptional care from the nursing staff. Each woman who provided care for me was extraordinary and unique. Though I was administered pain medication and my thoughts were not always clear during the hospital stay, I remember at least one distinctive thing about each. Please recognize the following nurses for their compassion: Bonnie 1 Bonnie 2 Bonnie3 Valerie Michele Laurie Jada Beth Loretta Margarette Sunita Melanie Christine Alice Natalie Sophia Please ask the nurse manager to check her records from 9/10 to 9/15 in case I neglected to name a nurse who cared for me. If I did miss a name, it is only because I was recovering from surgery and not always fully awake or lucid. A nurse that didn't get mentioned in my letter should get recognized too. This letter is about far more than just technical expertise and capabilities. It is about the other side of care giving; the people side. It is rare indeed to encounter members on any team who demonstrate consistently high quality output (every person, every shift, every day). Christiana Care must have an amazing training program with daily incentives for nurses, because each seems to sincerely look into the souls of patients and possess incredible human kindness. I am humbled. Gratefully," W.P.
"To Dr. Joseph Danyo, Thank you for all have done. When I went to Victoria's Secret to try on a new bra and I found one, put it on and it put tears in my eyes. I love my new look. It is all thanks to you. Thank you for your great work." J.L.
"You said they are just bags of water or gel. But, they are a lot more. I like them better than what I had before the kids. Thank you for making it so easy."
"Now that it is all over, it was easier than you prepared me for. Thank you!"
"No one noticed my operations. But they notice me. Thank you."
"Thank you for making this so easy. You put my worries to rest. I should have listened, though. I wish they were a little bigger."
"Thank you for such a great job. Everything fits so much better. You and your office were awesome."
"Thank you for giving me back my confidence. I love them..."
In my opinion, Dr. Thomas is an outstanding doctor. After having consultations with two other plastic surgeons. Dr. Thomas was the only doctor who met all the criteria I was looking for in a plastic surgeon. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Thomas He made sure I knew all the risks and outcomes of a Rhinoplasty As for the surgery, it went great. The surgical staff was exceptional, they made me feel like I was in good hands. After the surgery I had veryl little bruising. It's been a month and a half after my surgery and I can already see the results. I am very pleased with my results and I am confident that it will only get better with time. My self confidence is 100% better.
I am very happy with the Results of my surgery. Dr. Thomas did a wonderful job. He allowed me to tell hem what I wanted, and that is exactly what I got! My overall experience was wonderfull and I am very excited about my new nose!
I had my surgery done {beast implants} a little over two years ago and I just wanted to write and say how happy I am. My best friend just had hers done and they look worse than when she started. Everyone that has seen mine ask where and who did them. Almost all can't even tell I had them done. My own personal doctor even remarked on how good of a job you did and I would of never thought that they would have come out so great. I waited this long to write to make sure they wouldn't change. Thank you Dr. Thomas and staff for all you did, your office and you are great.
Before the Exoderm I had tried several corrective procedures, none of them produced the results I was looking for until now. My skin has over the years been exposed to tremendous amount of sun having worked outside, which created sun spots and raised lesions that began to start worrying me. Also, lines had increasingly started to appear.This for me has just been the greatest thing I could have done, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to tighten their skin, remove, age lines and even out their skin tones, but most importantly look at least 10 years younger. thank you Dr. Thomas.
The quality of the service I received was incredible. The staff, facilities and post-op care were top of the line. I am very pleased with the results (of my Tummy Tuck) and would consider Dr. Thomas before any other surgeon when referring friends and family.
I am absolutely thrilled with my results (Breast Implants). My breasts look so natural and feel almost like real breasts. I couldn't be happier. I will definitely refer you to my friends and family. Your staff is so nice and sweet and caring. I am very grateful and appreciate all that you and your staff have done.
I felt as if I were your favorite most important patient. The staff was so caring. I have NEVER been to any doctor that showed so much concern for me. Thank-you so much for making me feel special and (my breast lift) look amazing.
My experience (Nose Reshaping, Rhinoplasty) with both Dr. Thomas and the staff was exceptional. Everyone made sure I was comfortable and taken care of and no short cutes were taken in producing a great result. Everyone was extremely Professional while maintaining a friendly and caring environment. Dr. Thomas especially, did an incredible job and his diligence and skill have helped me become a more confident person.
"I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your care of me last week. You made me feel so comfortable and at ease, I felt at home!! What a caring person you are, it made such a difference to my being there all alone. I am well recovered, just in from my first work-out and getting back into my routine." S.T.
"I just wanted to thank you for all you have done in getting me my surgery. You always took me seriously; you didn't talk down to me and seemed to really understand what this meant to me. You never made me feel I was being silly. I have been, as I told you, called horrible names and made fun of for 15 years by my ex but no more. I did it for me and he will never get to enjoy. You treated me with respect and kindness and I thank you very much. I don't know if you would use a key chain like this but I made it for you anyway, I make a little money making things like this and jewelry, etc. Please accept it and once again thank your for everything." R.
"I would like to thank you for everything you've done for me. I feel so very fortunate to have you as my doctor. When I learned that you and Dr. Spira worked together I knew that you had to be "special", and I found out that to be so true! I look forward to many more years of you and your talented "mind, hands and scalpel!". R.S.
"Thank you for a lifetime of smiles and heartfelt consideration that actually made this all possible. Not to mention your incredible talent that I feel sure is unsurpassed. Your expertise will shine through where ever I go for the rest of my life each time I return a smile!" D.S.
"I can't thank you enough for what you've done. Working me into your schedule, etc. Please never ever change your bedside manner and let us hear from you if you move to Des Moines, Iowa." J.P.
"Words cannot express my appreciation for your skill and talent. ( I now have full length mirror in my home for the 1st time EVER!) I feel like a ton of bricks has been lifted off of me." K.P.
"I'm trying hard not to look at myself too many times in the mirror, but it's hard, because it's such a pleasure not to see the 'poochy' areas on each side of my mouth! I marvel at the skill and artistry of all plastic surgeons." S.P.
"Thank you for taking such care with my husband, following his car accident. His lacerations are healing nicely, and his other injuries are, too. He has already been released to go back to work. Your patience and humor meant a lot to me during this stressful time." J.H.
"Thanks for making my dreams come true. You do amazing work and I'm truly grateful! It was a pleasure meeting you!" S.G.
"My family and I wanted to again express our gratitude for your commitment to my recovery. You are an exceptional surgeon as well as a wonderful person. Your care and concern as I survived the holiday in the hospital was greatly appreciated. Thank you. I will see you soon, until then I hope your house is moving along smoothly!" S.B.
"Thank you so much for taking care of our son on one Saturday raining night at Valley Hospital. Most of all thank you for giving us a ride home, it was greatly appreciated."
"I want to thank you and your staff for your expertise in conducting my BA surgery. Your a wonderful Doctor! I wish you continued success in your professional career!" N.B.
"Thank you so much for taking such good care of me. I appreciated the rides back and forth. I am doing very well and I am very satisfied. Looking forward to my next trip to New York!" L.C.
"Having a wonderful time here in Hollywood Beach. Thank you for the referral to Dr. Pat he was wonderful, but I love you more!"
"I truly want to thank you for everything. You are a kind and considerate, understanding person; qualities that make a doctor not good, but GREAT!" J.C.
I wanted to write a quick note of thanks for how incredible you all have been. You have definitely been above and beyond the call of duty with my care. Your unwavering support and your tolerance of my (many) questions means so much. I am so pleased with all you've done for me. I shall definitely pass the word... but I wanted all of you to know personally how wonderful you have been. From the bottom of my heart.... Thank You! D.
I just wanted to send you and your staff a little message to say Hello and tell you all how extremely happy I am with the results of my Lipo. It's been just over 18 months since my procedure, and of course you were right, I have very little to no scar tissue left anywhere. I have to really look for my scars to show people where the incisions were. Nobody can believe how tiny the scars are. They're just too little dots now. I haven't been doing my situps / crunches as a faithfully as I should be, but I only have to do them for a couple of days now and I can tighten everything back up. Not like before when it would take a couple of months to see any difference. I am so pleased with the way everything turned out! I would do it all over again. I am still recommending you and your wonderful staff to everyone and anyone who expresses interest in my results. It was a wonderful feeling this summer to be able to take my shirt off and feel confident that I look so darn good with my flat abs and no love handles. It was truly the best thing I have ever done for myself and I thank you for being so Great!!!!!! My best regards to you and your staff, D.
"I couldn't pass this opportunity without letting you know how much you are appreciated... in these days with millions of hospitals or clinics, SERVICE which is provided by PEOPLE is what makes a difference.... I can't stress enough how much you have helped me get through. Simply put: You Are The Best. You provided me with the best service and I thank you so much... Keep up the good work. God bless you." T.
"I can't thank you enough for the dream that you had made come true for me. I have always wondered what it would be like to have this surgery, but never dreamed it would come true. You did a great job. I never imagined they would look so great!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You and your staff were the friendliest and most comforting doctors I have ever met. May God rain many blessings on your families." J.
Thanks for everything you and your staff have done for me. I'm so happy with my new breasts!!! They look so real and natural, it's hard to believe they aren't!! Thanks again for the perfect work and all your time. You and your staff are wonderful people, I wish there was more people in the world like the three of you!! I can't thank you enough M.
"I am writing in regard to my breast surgery on Monday, the 8th. I do not know how to thank you all for such a wonderful experience. I felt no anxiety about the surgery before hand and the results were more perfect than I could have ever imagined!!! I could not have asked for a better team! Dr. Flory made me feel so relaxed that I knew from the moment I first met him I had nothing to worry about. I still cannot believe how great the results are, and how there was little pain involved. I will never be able to thank you all enough! Thank you all so very much! I will be looking forward to seeing you all again on March 17 for my follow-up." P.
"I hope all is going well for all of you. I just wanted to write a few lines and let you know how things are going here. First, I think you should know I still constantly get compliments on how flat my stomach is especially after they find out I have had three children. I will never get tired of hearing those compliments. Second, I wish I could find the words to describe how good I feel about myself. I never realized just how much it bothered me to have that pouch left over from giving birth until I had the surgery. I knew I would feel better after the surgery, but never did I think doing something "cosmetic" would give me such a boost in the self-esteem area. Because I know my stomach looks great in a swimsuit or I can tuck my shirt in a snug fitting pair of jeans, I simply carry myself better. I stand up straight, I think differently about myself and it shows on my face. I just feel so good. It has been a year now since I had it done and my one concern for the surgery was "would it (stomach) stretch back out to where it was before"? Not at all! You told me it would not and you were right. I just cannot thank you enough." "Please feel free to use any of my pictures in any media form. I am proud of what you have done for me and I hope other women and men can benefit just as much from your experience as I have." A.
"People now find that I am funny and fun to be around. I was before but they just didn't bother to find out. They say I am beautiful. I was before but they just didn't look. They say I am happier now. I was happy before, but it's just so hard to show happiness when people you deal with don't see or hear you. I always got the feeling from people that I was not worth listening to. People speak to me now who never did before. People are friendlier and nicer. Now I can sit anywhere and I fit into any clothes I like. Yes, I am happier now, because the world around me wants to know me for who I am. I am worth listening to. It makes life so much easier and healthier." S.
"I was fast approaching 300 pounds when I made the decision to take back charge of my life and I was successful. Inches and pounds were gone but I still felt like a prisoner in my sagging, hanging body. I heard about the work that Dr. Hurwitz was doing, did my homework and scheduled a consultation. I knew the day I first met him that I was in the right place. Dr. Hurwitz told me 'I like what I do and I'm very good at it' and he backed up what he told me with pictures. I was treated with the utmost respect as he examined, tugged, pulled and photographed me - naked! Never once was I embarrassed or feel like I was on display. In November 2003 I had my upper body restored to normalcy followed just four short months later by my lower body. My results are fantastic and I like the way I look. People ask, would you do it again? You bet! As a matter of fact in December 2004 I returned for a third procedure to lean out my middle section. It was about comfort, I couldn't keep my pantyhose up! I am now one month out from that surgery and it's all good. Not only do my pantyhose stay up but I look great! An entire lifetime of my 'midriff bulge' issue is gone. Three major surgeries in 13 months meant a huge commitment and took a lot of perseverance but that's what I needed to do after massive weight loss. I set a goal over two years ago, kept my focus on the end result and I'm there. I will always be so very grateful for the part that the good Dr. Hurwitz did to help me get to where I am today. I am healthy, I feel great and I look fantastic!" C.
"Following my breast reduction surgery, I did have a couple of areas along my incisions that did have delayed healing. It took four to six weeks for theses areas to completely heal. As a result, I do have areas where there is thick scarring. Dr. Hurwitz introduced me to his aesthetician Molly who began laser treatments on my scars every three to six weeks. I am using a mixture of Retin A and smoothing gel and applying it to the scars. This mixture makes the top layer of skin slowly peel off, kind of like when you peel after a sun burn. I used the mixture approximately every other day depending whether I had any skin irritation from the cream. I have seen a noticeable difference in the appearance of the scars since starting this program. I have no regrets with having the surgery done and I am very pleased with the results. It has definitely had a positive impact on my life." A.
"Summers were the worst for me. We lived at the shore and going to the beach was out of the question. I was the only guy on my block who would not be seen without a tee shirt on in August. When I was growing up, cosmetic surgery wasn't something anyone discussed in my family. I had to wait until I was out on my own to have it done. Making the first consultation was the hardest part. The idea of having to get naked in front of the doctor and his nurse caused me to break out into a cold sweat. But after I got comfortable with Dr. Hurwitz's staff, the whole thing seemed simple, like why hadn't I done this sooner. Even the operation was not too bad. I focused on the outcome and the discomfort was minor. People have commented that my personality has totally changed after the surgery. They feel that I am much more open and that my new self-confidence shines through. I know that I am smiling more at people and they are smiling back, and women respond totally different to me. I feel so proud of my accomplishment and glad I had the courage to undertake this surgery. For any of you guys out there who have the same problem as I did, just do it." H.
"2004 was going to be my year. A year in which I took control of how I wanted to look. I was 55 years old, post menopausal, have dieted and exercised most of my life. I just retired from a profession that I was weighed for the first 14 years of it. So how I looked and felt about myself has always been an issue for me. For the past few years no matter how much I exercised or watched what I ate I could not change my breast and hip size. These two areas have always been a problem for me. With being older the size of my breasts seemed to be heavier and a pain in my back. As far back as I can remember my hips always had fatty deposits sitting on top of them I had thought about and talked about breast reduction but the surgery and the scarring scared me. So at the height of my disgust I called Dr. Hurwitz office to schedule an appointment. At the first meeting we discussed breast reduction and liposuction for my hip area. He agreed that my breasts were very large and a candidate for reduction and my hip area could be greatly helped with the liposuction. We also discussed liposuction in my midriff area, back, and stomach. Because he felt the skin would be loose in the stomach area we decided on a limited abdominoplasty. My surgery was scheduled and to say I was not scared would be a lie. My greatest supporter was my husband. He loved my body just the way it was but knew how unhappy I had been. I was a DD and hoped to become a C. The morning of the surgery Dr. Hurwitz and his team came to my room and proceeded to prepare me for surgery. He drew all over my breasts and the other areas. He then took pictures. When I awoke in recovery I was glad to be staying overnight. I cannot lie. I was very, very uncomfortable. I had given myself ten days to rest and recover. It was painful to lie down, get up, sleep, and do anything. The pain medication helped as I wanted to sleep and be out of the discomfort. The staff was wonderful assuring me that it all was normal. Dr. Hurwitz explained that with the incisions and the swelling made everything so tight. He said the swelling would go down over the next three months. I really did not believe him. I had the surgery on Monday and by Friday my husband came home from work to find me crying. I felt I had made the biggest mistake of my life. After five weeks I was permitted to go back to exercising and to play golf. I have to admit at that time I liked how my breasts looked in clothes. I tried jackets and tops on that I had not worn in a few years. It was great. I went to a party and wore a dress without a bra as it had thin straps. It was wonderful. I have to admit the other parts of my body were looking good too and even better in clothes. The best part is that my husband was thrilled. He loves how I look, and so do I. Well it is now eight weeks since the surgery. I can see that the swelling is going down and things do feel better. Imagine that. I love how I feel about myself now and especially not having the discomfort of the large breasts. I thought about the surgery and realize it's a bit like being pregnant. The pain was terrible while you are going through it but than you forget how bad it was. Your reward is a body that looks better on you." J.
"While fairly well-read /studied on all of these counts, I honestly never thought of myself as a serious candidate for elective surgery: in the end, the overwhelming day-to-day unhappiness with my body - despite a hardcore work-out ethic and small pre-surgery size - overrode what I formerly considered a needless vanity. But the significant scar and tissue from carrying and removing huge fibroids ('nearly the size of a basketball') was also beginning to erode my self-confidence across the board. I'm told I have a ways to go to full recovery, but I'm already feeling and looking so much better." J.
"In 2001, I had the gastric bypass surgery and lost approximately 265 pounds. I met Dr. Hurwitz a year ago and have had three surgeries: the tummy tuck and lower body lift, a breast reduction and upper body lift, and then the arm reduction, all in a nine to ten month period. I have gone from a size 4X or 32 to a Medium/10-12. The surgeries have not been easy; there have been complications-swellings, infections, etc., but I would gladly do it all over again." D.
"One year and four days post-op and I have lost 102 pounds and 66 INCHES!!! I have lost as many inches as I am tall!! I had a consult with my plastic surgeon, Dr. Dennis Hurwitz, about having a tummy tuck around to the back, arm reduction, and breast implants. I am just looking forward to the approximately 20 pounds the tucks will remove. I was kind of discouraged that I weigh 160 but then when you consider the extra skin, it's pretty good. So after the tucks I will be right where I wanted to be. People don't believe me now when they find out what I weigh; they think it's much less. I may eventually go for a thigh lift too because as summer is getting here I am finding I do not want to wear shorts because they are so jiggly! But overall I am very happy with the results and would definitely do it again in a heartbeat!" E.
"While I was going through the loss of weight after my gastric bypass surgery I didn't think much about all the skin that may be left. Of course, I knew there was a possibility that there will be some skin - I had heard vague stories about people who had to have surgery to remove it. But that may not happen to me - I was working out (lifting weights) religiously three nights a week to keep everything tightened up as I lost weight. Even if there was some excess skin, it didn't really matter. The important thing was that I would lose a lot of weight, and I would look so much better. And I would certainly be much, much healthier. What more could I want! Little did I know then, that there would be massive amounts of skin that I would have to deal with at the end of the weight loss period. What I had thought would be the end of my life-long struggle with a large body that would not respond to my many attempts to change it, proved to be the beginning of a whole new, and equally restrictive, problem. Having lost 198 pounds, I found I was not as happy as I thought I would be. My face looked so old - I had jowls and what I referred to as a turkey neck. And my stomach! It hung in a huge fold in front of me - I developed frequent rashes under it, it was so heavy, and in the summer, it made me very hot. I was wearing long pants and long-sleeved shirts all summer. I was happy only as long as my clothes covered my body. I had been looking forward to swimming at our swim club but I soon found that that would not be possible. I could just imagine the stares I would get when people saw the immense amount of flesh sagging all up and down my legs and hanging from my arms. I didn't even want my husband to see me uncovered. Was this why I went through two years of deprivation - so that I would have to go around all covered up? How disappointing! Then, too, I feared the comments from those who felt gastric bypass surgery was wrong, unhealthy, and quackery - they would have physical evidence that the current weight loss 'fad' was not what it was made out to be. I had, indeed, exchanged one awful problem for a different, and very grotesque, problem! It was very hard to pick which part of my body I wanted to do the most. None of it looked good - 'good' wasn't even a word that could be used in the same sentence with my body, my body looked just horrible. Imagine losing almost 200 pounds and still being so terribly ashamed. How could I ever let anyone see my body in its present state? When I went for my consultation, Dr. Hurwitz took many pictures - that was probably the hardest part. I was so very self-conscious about my body. I didn't even like having my husband look at me naked and here was a total stranger taking pictures of every inch of me! I got through it, and he didn't seem to be as shocked as I thought he would be. He was so nice, and I found that I could talk to him. He told me that there was a lot he could do - I could have a whole new body. If I wanted to proceed with the surgery on my stomach, we would certainly try to get insurance coverage, but he explained that I would not be satisfied with just stomach surgery. To make it look right, I would also have to have a lower body lift, which would include my legs and hips. He didn't like to do one without the other. It just wouldn-t be pleasing to the patient. When I left his office, I felt so hopeful, and I wanted so badly to have the surgery. My husband strongly encouraged me to go ahead with it. It was time for me to think of myself. He didn't think I would ever feel 'finished' without it. In a few days, with a little further encouragement, I called and set a surgery date! It's what enabled me to get off this self-fulfilling cycle of unhealthy eating and yo-yo dieting. Weight loss surgery is often called a tool. How well you learn to use that tool is up to you." J.
"The breast reduction my cosmetic surgeon at the Hurlingham did for me was a godsend. The surgery was surprisingly easy and with very little (if any) discomfort. I now have lovely shaped breasts and frankly, could easily go without a bra if I wished! (Now that has never happened before!) I now have not only physical comfort but also gained confidence as all my clothes fit so much better. I wonder now why I didn't do it sooner!" L.H.
"I had surgery on my eyelids and breast augmentation. The Clinic, the hospital [the Cromwell] and the care afterwards were all superb and very professional. I had very, very, few after effects. " D.R.
"I'm thrilled— my 32Bs are incredibly perky, not too round and look totally natural. Plus my waist looks smaller and I have a great cleavage... The Hurlingham's aftercare was so important— being able to contact Mr. Goldberg at any time and the post-operative massages made a big difference." S.W.
"The staff as a whole made me feel great and were very nice and always had a smile on their face and all my questions and concerns were addressed."
"Make you feel comfortable, yet treat you as friends... fantastic office staff from front desk to finances, to back office... Dr. Dawkins is wonderful, honest, and would recommend him to many more people. Good work!!!!"
"The hospitality, gentleness and thoroughness that was evident through each member of your great "team"!"
"Everyone's genuine concern and compassion. They made me feel like a "queen"!!"
"Putting me at ease was their concern."
"All of the staff seem very knowledgeable, very professional, and very kind."
"They're professional and very friendly hospitality."
"Very friendly staff. No one was unfriendly. They made me feel very welcome."
"Everyone was very nice."
"Very professional."
"Did a great job. When I need more done, I'll come back!"
"The people... everyone has the best attitude I have ever seen in a doctor's office. One of the things I would like to see change... Nothing."
"I felt comfortable and relaxed because the office staff and nurses were very helpful and the doctor seemed interested in me as a person."
"I liked how everyone treated me. Dr. Dawkins talked to me at a level I understood and gave me knowledgeable information to allow me to make a decision I was comfortable with."
"I cannot say how you could have better served me because I was completely satisfied with everything. I was extremely happy with my entire experience. Anyone who believes cosmetic surgery has to be unpleasant should visit your office. They will be happily surprised!"
"You [Dr. Mentz] are truly an artist in every aspect of your work and your meticulous attention to every detail has resulted in an outcome that is better than I could have ever anticipated." B.J.R.
"Thank you so much for everything you have done for me. The week in the hospital was the scariest time of my life but for some reason when you came to visit in the morning, I knew everything was going to be ok. The sense of security you give is priceless....Everyone at the hospital made comments on what a good doctor you are! Thanks again."
"I want to thank you for your encouragement throughout my procedure and decision to go larger. I finally was officially measured and have found I am a 34D. After kids, I shrunk to an A cup. I am so much more comfortable and confident with my new and natural look!"
"Just a note of thanks for all you have done in such a short amount of time since my first call to you! In less than a month I have beautiful breasts! I have been wanting this for a long time, but there was always an issue that prevented me from actually going through with it....I think as you get older, you worry less about those things that prevent you from doing things and you say, "This isn't about anyone but ME!" I didn't want to wear t-shirts and sweatshirts that hide the fact that I was a bra size A. I'm 40 years old and I have a great figure for my age except my breasts. I wanted to feel complete. Now I can finally wear clothes that compliment my body."
"I had a professional consultation with Dr. Rocheford and she answered everything I could even possibly think of. She is very professional, but a human being a woman, so it was easy to show her your body as it was to be honest with her. I had a tummy tuck, lipo and I will now be wearing a bikini this summer if I keep running. They called to see how I was and even gave me her private number. I would never go to anyone else!!! ALL of her staff are perfect, even though I have a favorite Debbie.:O) I just had laser treatment on old scaring from acne and too much tanning in Mexico. I had one treatment by professional but wonderful women and my result is like a newborn. I LOVE it and there was NO down time. I don't have to wear makeup!"
"Dr. Rocheford is extremely skilled and caring. She has performed several cosmetic procedures for me and I am always impressed with her techniques and her approach. Her office staff are also wonderful."
"I felt like I knew Dr. Rocheford and her nurse Deb my whole entire life. These are the nicest, friendly, and truly caring ladies I have ever met!"
"Dr. Rocheford, I appreciate the patient care that you provided for myself and my husband. I feel real at ease with you and I thank you for taking the time for me. Thank you very much." P. & S.T.
"It was nice to be your patient; your staff and you are a great team! My life has changed, people giving me compliments and I will always say "Dr. Heather Rocheford is the best". Thanks a lot for your patience and kindness." -Bonnie, thanks for your patience when I was on pain medicine! :)" M.H.
"Dr. Rocheford, "Thank you" seems like such a small word to express how grateful I am! I am "thrilled" with my implant replacements! The entire process could not have gone smoother! Your office "and" the surgery center was a wonderful experience! And to think I found you on the internet!! It was worth the 5 hour drive!" K.
"Dr. Rocheford, Thank you so much for your expertise, advice and professionalism. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt completely cared for and in "good hands". I am lovin' the new look and feelin' like 40 isn't going to be so bad after all! 🙂 I don't want to forget Deb and your team at the surgery center either... ALL of them, wonderful, respectful and kind." A "big" Thanks to them all, too!"
"Hello Rocheford Staff! I would like to thank you for making my procedure such a positive experience. Its wonderful to be around such positive, up beat, kind ladies!" J.K.
"My new implants look great! You're "great" for fixing them for me." D.R.
"Thank you" Such a small word but so much behind it. I am so speechless by my gratitude behind your talent, kindness & staff. Thank you so "very" much for making a difference in this world. Because, you do!!"
"Dr. Rocheford, I cannot begin to tell you how much the implant surgery has changed me! I feel absolutely wonderful and love my new breasts! You and your staff were so helpful and made me feel at ease. I cannot thank you enough!!"
"Dr. Rocheford and Staff - Thank you for brightening my life! Thank you for "adding" confidence that I have needed for years! You and your staff are the Best!"
"Heather, Thank you so much for all your kindness, explanation and reassurance with my recent surgery. you are (and always have been) an excellent surgeon and I'm so appreciative for your skills. The gift certificate is a very "small" way to say thanks. (even if you may not drink coffee)."
"Dear Heather, I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your care, kindness and skill. You are an outstanding surgeon! Thank you for impacting my self-esteem in such a positive way. My husband highly approves of 'my new body'"
"Dr. Rocheford, Thank you for such a Great job - I feel so young again! You truly go above & beyond to make your patients feel good! More importantly, thank you for your kindness, information & care towards me!"
"Dear Dr. Rocheford, I want you to know that for me just saying thank you was not enough so I hope you will accept my way of saying "thank you so very much" for turning my life around. I feel so wonderful and I can't believe how something like this could be so powerful and have such an impact and I'm not even normal yet. It was overwhelming for me in the beginning but with the help of some kind friends and a little extra time, it all worked out and I'm very pleased. The crew at High Pointe was wonderful too. God knew what he was doing when he created you and you do it well. So I thank you with all my heart. I'd also like to thank your staff for being so kind and always keeping me informed of what was needed and reminding me of my appointments. It must be a great honor to work for you. Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!"
"Dr. Rocheford & Staff, You've helped make my days sunny! Thanks for the care & concern & helping make a slightly painful experience so worth it! Thanks! (With new smooth forehead & thighs!)." L.E.
"Dear Dr. Rocheford, I hope you can fit some time in your schedule to enjoy what I have packed into your picnic basket. I can't thank you enough for doing such a great job on my surgery - I couldn't be happier!! Thanks again!" J.J.
"Heather, Thanks so much Your new Biggest Fan!" R.
"Dear Dr. Heather, "Thank you" seems inadequate as I try to express my gratitude to you. You (and all your staff) have treated me with great respect and kindness. I have always felt comfortable through everything. I especially want to thank you for the extra surgery time you gave me and the perfect, beautiful "new" nose. You are an "angel," and a gifted, inspired surgeon!! God bless you always!!" J.A.
"Dr. Heather & Debbie, I just wanted to thank both of you for your kindness and professionalism - I love my new belly and the ability to wear all of my clothes again (gone are the polyester elastic wasted garments)." C.M.
"Look! No more love handles (Yeah!) You are the greatest! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!" L.
"Heather, You are a rare find in the medical profession. you are so caring, compassionate & devoted. We can't tell you how much we appreciate you and all your efforts. Thank you for all you have done for us."
"Dear Dr. Sterman, Thank you for all of your wonderful care! Your compassion, care, time and patience is truly remarkable. You are blessed with gifted hands and an artistic talent."
"You have been the most wonderful, most compassionate doctor I've yet know. Thank you for your generosity, availability, gentle care, extensive time, and your humanitarian ways. I have felt very safe and cared for and very important as your patient. I can only thank you by letting you know and by letting others know how outstanding a person and MD you are. May you be blessed always."
"Dear Dr. Sterman, I don't think that I can find enough words to thank you for what you have done for me. I am so incredibly pleased with the results from my breast implant surgery. Surgery day, I was so nervous I could have jumped out of my skin, but you were so calming to me and gentle that I soon relaxed, well, the shot the anesthesiologist gave me helped too! When I was wheeled into the O.R. I knew I was in the best possible "hands". I was so happy to see you standing at my bedside when I awoke, you were explaining to me that you couldn't put as many cc's in as I wanted because it wouldn't look natural. I was a little scared that I wouldn't be big enough, but I completely trusted you and I knew I would look great. Once I got up and my husband helped me dress, I couldn't even look in the mirror because I felt so nauseous, I just wanted to get home and go back to sleep. It wasn't until that night that I got up and looked in the mirror. What I saw in my reflection was what I had been waiting years to see, a developed chest. If you were there I probably would have kissed you, I knew at that point that it had all been worth it (and the pain wasn't even close to what I had imagined it to be, thanks to a brilliant surgeon). I also loved the fact that you kept calling to check up on me , and when I needed to reach you with the question about the blisters, you called back in five minutes - that never happens with other doctors! I feel so blessed to have found you and to have had you perform my surgery. I have recommended you to all of my friends and family members; no one is allowed to use another plastic surgeon! Dr. Sterman, you have changed my life in obvious ways and have touched my heart with your kindness and gentle demeanor. I thank you from the bottom of my heart."
“I’m wearing tight jeans for the first time in my life, and when I wore them a neighbor (who knows my real age) told my husband I could pass for 40, or even 30’s!”
"The entire staff is beyond exceptional. I have completed my second procedure, and will never go anywhere else. I plan to now start skin care through Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery. I have recommended A & PS and Dr Aziz to all my friends. You have all truly changed my life!! Thank You!" S.
"Dr Aziz was wonderful through the whole process. My first consultation, he sat with me and discussed my options for an entire hour. He always made me feel like his first priority. I would recommend him to anyone." O.H.
"Dr. Aziz is the kindest and most caring man. His concerns are always your comfort. He is a genius of a surgeon also." S.
"Everyone at Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery, Inc. is absolutely wonderful. The entire staff make you feel as if you are part of the family. I was hesitant at first about surgery. After I went in and met with Dr. Aziz and his staff for my consultation, I realized that I was in the right place and that I would be in the BEST care. Dr. Aziz and his staff work very hard to ensure that you are are informed and satisfied. I am VERY happy with my results and enjoy going back for follow-up appointments. I recommend Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery, Inc. to all of my family and friends."
"Dr. Aziz and his aesthetician, Sharon Sellers, are not only incredibly capable and talented professionals, they are also wonderful people. I have received a variety of treatments and services at Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery for the past 15 years. I wouldn't consider going anywhere else!" K.C.
“Dr. Aziz & Staff, You have changed my life for the better, given me my self confidence back, and improved my life with my family. The tummy tuck was painful but well worth it, the lipo was not bad at all. Most of all Dr Aziz and his staff are like family and it is always great to see all of them. I will come back and send my friends.” T.
"In December of 1999 after much consideration I decided that I wanted to have breast augmentation. I researched several Plastic Surgeons in Columbus, OH. When I called the office of Dr. Aziz I knew I had called the right place. From the initial phone call I was treated with respect by his staff and felt welcome and at ease. Dr. Aziz sat down with me several times prior to the surgery and consulted with me to be sure I was aware of what to expect and most importantly that I was making the right decision. Post surgery was just as nice; Dr. Aziz actually called me when I returned home the day of the surgery to make sure I was doing okay. I then had many post operative check-ups to be sure I was healing correctly and to be sure I was happy with the outcome. To say the least I have never been happier and would (and have) recommended him to several friends. Thanks Dr. Aziz – you are the BEST!" D.J.
"Dr. Aziz is a wonderful doctor. I had breast implants 2 years ago and love them. Since then I have sent 3 of my friends to him for breast implants. They are more than happy also. You are in good hands with Dr. Aziz." L.
"I searched for three years and had three consultations (which I paid for) with other doctors hoping to find someone I could trust and who I felt comfortable with to perform my Cosmetic Surgery. . My Medical doctor referred me to Dr. Aziz and stated that she had heard nothing but positive responses from many patients she had referred to Dr. Aziz for Cosmetic surgery. My Doctor heard right I am very satisfied with the surgery Dr. Aziz performed on me. The staff is very friendly and professional which added to my decision to go with Dr. Aziz. I highly recommend Dr. Aziz . I had a neat and successful abdominoplasty surgery and is currently receiving skin care treatments which is a good thing. On a scale of 1- 10 with 10 being the highest I give Dr. Aziz and staff a 10 plus. I look and feel good!!" B.W.T.
"Thank you for taking such great care of me. You are the best!" R.
"It was a very pleasurable experience. I felt well taken care of and everyone showed personal concern for the patients; staff is wonderful."
"Dr. Beam and this staff so compliment one another. The day of my surgery the staff made me feel safe - Dr. Beam's excellent surgery and staff cared for me and could not have been any better."
"Dear Dr. Beam, Thank you very much for doing such a good job on my face. it looks really good and is healing well. Again, thank you from our entire family."
"Dear Dr. Beam, I wish you a most wonderful New Year. The best year yet for you and your family. You are a great surgeon, as well as an artist. I thank you for everything you have done for me. You cannot possibly know how much you have helped me."
"Dr. Beam - I wanted to write a short note to thank you for making this experience a "positive" one. I have absolute confidence and respect in your abilities; your staff is always courteous and professional. This shows the high standards you have in your practice. I would recommend you all highly to anyone."
"My Dearest Doctor, Happy anniversary! It's been a FULL wonderful year. I'm such a happier person... Loving my new face and enjoying ALL the attention it brings! Thank you for everything, everything, everything! Looking forward to another chapter in my life and more beautifying procedures!"
"Dr. Beam & Co., This is a time for all to give Thanks and to count our blessings - Well, I just want to tell you that I am so very Thankful and so very blessed to have found not only the "BEST" doctor in this field... but also a wonderful friendship with you and your staff. Thank you all for your care, your patience & understanding, and most of all... Thank you for being "YOU!" You're the Greatest!"
"To Dr. Beam & Staff, We could not have had a better surgeon or a more caring staff! Thank you!"
"Dear Dr. Beam, Tomorrow I will be leaving to attend Boston College, but before I did, I wanted to write you this letter to say thank you for making my visits to your office pleasant ones. Recently, I was in your office for which you removed an extra nipple (forgive me for not knowing the scientific name) I had on my breast. I had always wanted to get it removed but never told anyone about it until this summer. Soon after I found out what it was exactly, I was referred to you for its removal. I was eager to get rid of the extra nipple, but at the same time, dreaded the awkwardness and embarrassment that I believed would accompany the procedure. For something that remained so personal and private for so many years, I could only imagine the surgery being incredibly uncomfortable and somewhat humiliating for me. In contrast, Dr. Beam, you were so kind to me, making me feel very relaxed and comfortable throughout the procedure. During the surgery, you always made me aware of any pain or discomfort that I may have felt and really seemed to make every effort to ensure a painless a surgery, which you did. Never once did you make me feel embarrassed. Your kindness was so genuine it was overwhelming. You came across to me as such a caring and sincere person, two traits that, I believe, have helped you [become] the excellent doctor that you are. I am extremely happy with the results of the surgery and can't thank you enough for making the procedure go as smoothly and comfortable as you did. By writing this letter, I hope I was able to clearly express my gratitude and appreciation for everything you did for me. Your unique kindness and genuine personality will not be forgotten." K.J.
"It takes one person to change a person's life. I feel I met that person in you, Dr. Galante. You and your staff made me feel completely comfortable with my decision. The difference in the shape of my body is very noticeable. You gave me a new beginning. I know my work outs will have a new meaning. Thank you for all you have done for me." T.F.
"I can't begin to tell everybody how wonderful Dr. Galante is. I had eyelid surgery. I look so good. I never felt better about myself. Less than a week total recovery. Dr. and staff are the greatest." J.V.
"I procrastinated on getting eyelid surgery for several years before finally getting the nerve to call. Once I called this office and came in, my mind was made up. I'm very happy with my results and the entire staff, along with Dr. Galante were wonderful. Would I do it all again? - You bet!" K.H.
"I have to say that my surgery was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I had a breast lift and augmentation. Only three months later and I have healed so well. All of my friends have told me how great I look! Going into this I have to admit I was nervous, but Dr. Galante and his staff were wonderful. They have been extremely caring and supportive." K.L.
"After years of being unhappy about having small breasts, I decided to have an augmentation. Dr. Galante was honest and very professional. He also made my dream come true! They look excellent!!!" K.W.
"Dr. Galante and staff - words cannot express my gratitude for what you have done for me! The breast reduction surgery was the best thing I've ever done for myself - 40DDD to 38 small C. YEAH! Dr. Galante has truly been a blessing to me and I would highly recommend his services!" M.W.
"Dr. Galante and his staff are amazing!!!! I felt so comfortable during the whole process. I am EXTREMELY SATISFIED with the outcome of my breast augmentation. I experienced very minimal pain. This is the happiest I have ever been in my whole life- thanks to Dr. Galante and his staff." G.F.
"I had surgery with Dr. Galante for a Breast Augmentation and couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Galante did exactly what I wanted and made my breasts totally proportionate to my body. It has given me a new confidence in myself- I am so glad that I finally had the nerve to go through with it! I would recommend Dr. Galante and his staff to anyone wanting plastic surgery. Awesome experience!" K.S.
"I was very pleased with the lipo done on my hips. My clothes fit much better and my self-image got a lift big time!!" S.V.
"Dr. Galante and his staff are the most caring and professional I have ever met. They are the best! Look no further for all your needs! They treat you like family." E.H.
"Dr. Galante and his staff are exceptional. Their knowledge and caring guide you through every step of the surgery- pre and post op, every question answered. As a nurse, I researched 4 other physicians and chose Dr. Galante and I could not be happier! The results are wonderful. Thank you." S.B.
"After years and years of being envious of women with breasts, I finally decided to do something about it. Now I wish I would have done this years ago. Dr. and staff were all wonderful! I would go through this again tomorrow. No regrets!!!" R.K.
"I was well prepared for the procedure by the detailed literature and instructions. All staff was very courteous and professional (office and surgery center). And of course Dr. Galante does excellent work. I was impressed that Dr. Galante took the time to call me at home the night of surgery to see how I was doing. I don't know of any other surgeon that does that." M.C.
"I have all good things to say about my experience. Everyone is extremely friendly and professional. Appointments are kept on time. Just keep on doing what you are doing." K.W.
"Dr. Galante and his staff are refreshingly honest, compassionate and understanding. I'm so thankful I chose him to perform my surgery. I love my results and my new self confidence is priceless." N.H.
"I can only say great things about my experience with my surgery. Dr. Galante is wonderful and all of the girls on his staff were wonderful to work with. I would recommend this office to anyone." T.G.
"Dr. Galante and staff are wonderful to work with. They will take as much time with you as needed to address any questions or concerns. Dr. Galante is a fabulous surgeon!" B.F.
"I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my surgery. Dr. Galante has always made me feel comfortable when discussing my surgery and he listened to my hopes and concerns. I could not have picked a better doctor. I feel better about myself and I feel people are looking at my face instead of my nose. I cannot explain in words how happy I am." J.B.
"After interviewing several doctors in Chicago I chose Dr. Galante because of his honesty regarding my facelift. He has an amazing reputation as a surgeon. After having surgery he could not have been more attentive. I was most satisfied, actually I was more than satisfied! I healed very very fast and I love the way I look and so does my husband." R.F.
"Dr. Galante, Thank you for being such a caring Doctor. You can find a doctor anywhere, but to have a doctor that truly cares about their patients is "VERY" hard to find, that is what makes you so SPECIAL. Thanks again for being so wonderful." L.A.
"Dr. Galante, How do I thank someone as special as you? it is difficult to find the words. you are an amazing physician, and I have the results of your artistic talents to prove that. However, your wonderful personality, your kindness, and the fact that you truly care for your patients along with your talent puts you far at the top of the list of all the physicians that I have known. And lately, that number has been overwhelming. You are the best, and you deserve every thing wonderful that life can give you. Thank you from the depth of my spirit." N.
"Dr. Galante, Thank you for the great job you did! You made me feel more relaxed than I thought I would be before surgery. I can see already the results of your skill as a surgeon. I will recommend you "highly" to my friends!" P.S.
"Dear Dr. Galante: It is with heartfelt thanks that I write to you. The ultimate bond of compassionate care protects, nurtures, inspires and comforts, all of which I have received from you and that will long be remembered. I've learned, while working in the medical industry, that "Patients don't care how much the physician knows until they know how much the physician cares." You know that, feel that and show that to each individual patient. The genuine kindness and compassion that you showed me during my recent procedure sets you far apart from all the rest! I am hopeful that the best "thank you" I can give is the referral of my family and friends. I have felt honored and privileged to be one of your patients." L.S.
"Dear Dr. Galante, Your kind, attentive care was so appreciated. Doctors everywhere should learn from your example. Thank you for everything!" R.R.
"Dr. Galante & Staff, Thank you so very much for your professionalism and care in every step of the way during my surgery. I have the utmost confidence in all of you and appreciate the time you spent with me. The results are exactly what I wanted." R.J.
"Dr. Galante and your wonderful staff - I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for being so very nice and patient with me. My fiance and I think you all did a great job. I especially want to thank Dr. Galante for holding my hand until I fell asleep before the operation; that meant a lot to me because I was so scared. I have no regrets whatsoever and have already recommended you to my friends for future reference. Thanks again." R.W.
"Dr. Gus, Wanted you to know that I've thoroughly enjoyed becoming your patient. I so appreciate your caring spirit & appreciate your detail...(all those "fine lines" of detail). Thank you for wanting me to be happy. I plan on referring many wonderful women to you!" S.M.
"Dear Dr. Galante, you made me feel "comfortable", not to mention "safe" and your "patience" shown in making my decision for surgery. The materials you provided were "superb" and your staff is to be "commended". Thank you for being the tools that made my dream come true." B.R.
"Dr. Galante & Staff, I want to express my sincere gratitude for the professionalism, kindness, comfort and personal attention that was given to me throughout the entire process of my procedure.

"Dr. Galante, As scared as I was, I can't thank you enough for holding my hand before I was put under. This surgery has been the best thing I've ever done for myself & I Thank you!" J.O.
"I am 100% happy with my results; Dr. Leveque was professional and personable. The office and staff represents what a plastic surgeons office should be. I am happy that we have an excellent doctor in Pensacola to perform procedures rather than traveling to other cities."
"After consulting with two other surgeons before my first appointment with Dr. Leveque, I instantly knew she was the surgeon for me."
"My dream became a reality. The surgery helped me gain more confidence in my appearance. I wish I had done this years ago."
"Everyone in the office really makes you feel comfortable and that makes a difference."
"Dr. Leveque is informative and sensitive to her patients needs. The staff is extremely helpful."
"The office feels bright and friendly with positive energy. Their concern about what needed to be done and how to make it possible made all the difference. Thank you so much."
"The results of my surgery were so much more than I expected. Dr. Butler is truly a master in this field! I will most definitely be back and would highly recommend him without reservation."
"Dr. Butler does a fantastic job making his patients feel special and cared for. His work is beautiful and I’ve never felt better about my body than I do now after my breast lift and augmentation. The staff has also been exceptionally nice and helpful throughout my entire experience."
"Dr. Leveque and her staff are caring and professional. Dr. Leveque pays great attention to detail and has a wonderful, compassionate bedside manner."
"Dr. Butler and his staff are very patient and caring, yet professional. They were very thorough in their explanation of my procedure. I knew they really cared about me and nothing unexpected or unexplained happened. Thanks for doing such a great job and a very positive experience. I couldn’t feel better or be happier."
"The staff is wonderful. Dr. Leveque did a great job—I am very pleased with my results. This has been one of the best decisions of my life. I finally feel like I am proportional."
"Dr. Butler was wonderful—he provides very realistic expectations and his staff was very helpful and available to answer any questions before and after surgery."
"I was in good hands. I was completely taken care of before, during and after my surgery."
"All positive, nurturing almost. I have already told dozens of people how pleased I am with the results."
"Excellent! Incredible care from the first phone call to my final follow-up. Simply the best in Pensacola."
“I have been a patient of Richmond Surgical Arts/Skin Rejuvenation Center for 2+ years. I have been thrilled with all of the skin treatments I have received and with the staff as well. They are not only a very professional and knowledgeable group, but also the friendliest and most accommodating group that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I look forward to each and every visit and know that they will keep me apprised of all the latest and greatest treatments that are out there.”
“At 35, I started to notice that the lines around my eyes were becoming deeper and deeper and my smile became overshadowed by the noticeable change. I finally got up the nerve to try Botox, and what a difference that made! Just a couple of small pricks and the deep creases under and around my eyes seemed to disappear. My face and smile seem softer and more natural and the lines and wrinkles that were bothering me so much before are gone. I tried it on my forehead soon after and the lines across my forehead smoothed out completely; I kept all expressions but lost the wrinkles!”
“I am a 36 year old and found myself struggling with the onset of wrinkles, age spots and even some adult acne. With one treatment of the IPL laser, I noticed a huge difference, revealing skin that looked 10 years younger. The fine lines and sun damaged darker areas on my face improved dramatically, and that was just the first treatment. The procedure was painless and the only side effect was a pink look to my skin that lasted a day. The freckles turned dark in the next few days and within a week they sloughed off to reveal the clear skin underneath. The other laser treatment I tried, The Fraxel, was even better. But not only was I thrilled with my results, my friends couldn’t believe the difference and noticed right away that my skin looked clear, wrinkle free and healthy. My skin has a firmness and glow to it that I haven’t seen since I was 20! There was no downtime with either of these procedures except for some redness and a little swelling in the first 48 hours with the Fraxel-well worth it!”
“I am writing this letter to let other know how pleased I have been with Richmond Surgical Arts. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. They are current on all new procedures and skin treatments. Their care is based on individual needs. I am a 56 year old woman who suffered from acne and sun damage. The skin care nurses designed a skin care routine just for me. I know it has helped my appearance and self-image. You will feel special when you visit them.” P.
“Dr. Lynam, thank you so much for doing such an amazing job on my lower body lift. You will never know what a difference it has made in my life in such a short period of time. You gave me my self-esteem back after struggling with being morbidly obese for most of my adolescent years. I have now been able to close that chapter in my life and start over. I love shopping for clothes now. Dr. Lynam, you truly make a difference for men and women both in the Richmond area.” K.
“I have had great results with the skin care treatments I’ve received at RSA. My skin has always been sensitive due to rosacea. My skin has responded well to the skin treatments, becoming more resilient and smooth, as well as losing much of the redness caused by the rosacea. My skin feels ten years younger and I feel confident without make-up for the first time ever!!! Thanks for everything your staff has done to help meet my skin care needs." K.
“I could never ask for a better staff. Everyone is very professional and helpful. I am 33 years old with very difficult to treat adult acne. Amy has helped me improve the texture and manage my acne with laser skin treatments and skin care regimens. I have also begun laser hair removal with fantastic results.” S.
“I have enjoyed the services of the skin care specialists at RSA since it began business in Richmond five years ago. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They see clients promptly at their scheduled appointment times and are most willing to work around clients’ scheduling conflicts. Even better, the specialized treatments I have received have given my skin a renewed life with fewer fine lines, elimination of spider veins, and minimization of blemishes. I recommend their services regularly and am happy to say that may of my friends are now clients as well.” L.
“Dr. Lynam, I just wanted to say thank you very much for the wonderful job you did on my breasts. Having this surgery was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I want to thank you and your wonderful staff! I was actually very surprised about my surgery. I had no pain, very little swelling and no bruising. You did an amazing job and I’ll be back for other procedures. I have recommended you to everyone I know who is thinking about plastic surgery.” S.
“Dr. Lynam, thank you so much for doing such a wonder job with my surgery. I really appreciate it. I was so worried and everything turned out just like I wanted it to. It is so great not to have my big left breast anymore.” J.
“I just wanted to say thank you for “being there” for a patient in need today. You all were so responsive and accommodating when I called and shared a friend’s encounter with what seemed a lack of empathy. As a nurse, it is always so refreshing when other medical professionals don’t lose sight of the fact that at any moment it could be ourselves or a loved one who needs a helping hand. What a terrible day for my friend turned out to be a great one. I really appreciate it.” D.
"Dear Dr. DeLange, I wanted you to know that I am very pleased with my recent surgery. The results are even better than I expected! I am so comfortable now. You obviously listened and understood my needs. I would also like to Thank Kim. She answered many questions I had prior to surgery which put me at ease. If I feel the need for any future procedures, I will be sure to return to you and your staff. And I will definitely recommend your services to any of my friends who might be considering cosmetic surgery. Thanks again."
"Dear Dr. DeLange, Diane, Melissa, Jennifer, Leslie, Starr, and all the other wonderful people at Estetica: I just wanted to say thank you for being so wonderful to me, before, during and after my breast augmentation. Everyone has been so kind during phone calls, the consultation, and even before my surgery; it really made me feel so comfortable and less nervous. I know I made the right decision to do the surgery and am so glad I chose Dr. DeLange and Estetica! Thank you so much!"
"Dr. DeLange and Staff, Thank you so much for your kindness and your unbelievable talents. You've made me look and feel so wonderful."
"Dr. DeLange, You and your staff are out of this world! Sally was absolutely right when she said your the BEST! Now I know it for myself. Your patient care, professionalism and office atmosphere are extraordinary! I was fortunate to discover you! And for that I thank you and your entire staff!"
"Dr. Greg DeLange, Thank you and your wonderful staff for all the attention and care you have given me throughout my enhancement voyage. Thank you especially for making me more confident, I look younger and the "girls" are just "GREAT"!! "You" are great!"
"Dear Dr. DeLange (and Staff!!), Just a note to thank you for taking such great care of me during my surgery 🙂 Words can not begin to describe how happy I am with the results! Having a breast augmentation was something I've always dreamed about "forever", but "never" thought it would ever really happen! I am so grateful for the opportunity and I hope to send lots of other girls your way! You guys are the Best! Thank you, Thank you, "Thank you"!"
"M.D. DeLange, Thanks for giving me my beautiful 36C's!! I Love them. This is the best thing I've ever done for myself. I hope everything is going well. Thanks again."
"Dr. DeLange and Staff, Just a few words to thank and commend you and your team for the kind and comforting service afforded my wife and I during the surgery she recently undertook with you. The 'professionalism' displayed by you and your staff made the whole experience a pleasurable one. Many thanks to all of you for everything you did."
"Dear Greg, You are a fantastic physician, or should I say artist. I finally shaved my beard after two and a half months and I must say I am looking at a face I have not seen in years. My wife says I look younger than our son, but I know she exaggerates (a little, anyway). The removal of that large tumor has eliminated the weight I felt on the side of my face and I no longer feel my skin sagging. As I told you, my hair stylist cannot believe that I had anything done. She has seen other work, but nothing as good as yours. If I am puffing you up it is because you deserve it. The love for your work and the good that comes from it shows in the way that you care for your patients. Everyone on your staff has been very kind, attentive and caring as well. I could not have asked for better than that which I received and I thank you."
"Dear Dr. Rauscher, A few years ago you treated my one-year-old son when he fell and cut open his forehead. I just wanted to say thank you again because two years later you can barely tell he even had stitches. Its your amazing hands and care we have to thank. So thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"Dear Dr. Rauscher, …Thank you for taking such good care of me over the years. Your generosity and caring have always been the best. I never would have made it this far without your support and the great gift you have for being there for your patients. You make me feel so important and leave me with a feeling of contentment knowing that nothing can happen, as you are my very special doctor. How very lucky I have been. The members of your office staff are also wonderful, which is a reflection on you. They have that empathetic and caring quality, which I am sure they learned by observing you. I do love all of you. It is a joy and a pleasure coming to your office and I hope it continues for many years to come."
"Dear Greg, Thank you so very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to call. I wish I could put into words what you have done for me. Just the acknowledgment."
"To Dr. Rauscher, Thank you for all advice & support you gave me when chips were down."
"Dr. Rauscher, I couldn't have found a better card for you. Everything that is stated in this card says it all. You are the Best!"
"Dear Dr. Rauscher, Thank you so very much for your excellence & professionalism. I greatly appreciate your efforts. Also, your staff is to be complimented; they were great!"
"Dear Dr. Rauscher, I cannot find the words to express my gratefulness to you. With all my heart Thank you over and over again for everything. May God bless you and your family."
"Thank You Very Much Dr. Rauscher.Thank You Thank You Thank You Dear Dr. Rauscher, My search to find you began one day on the internet. At the time I had no idea what kind of doctor you would turn out to be. I was very impressed with your credentials and had a good feeling about you. I called your office to set up an appointment. I arrived for my appointment on July 27th and it was very early and the office was not opened yet. I was waiting outside of your office with another couple who said they have known you since 1978 and when I entered your office which was very professional I was greeted with a warm welcome from your office staff. I then met Roseva, your nurse, who was absolutely incredible and told me everything about what to expect from the surgery and from you. Roseva made a statement to me, "Dr. Rauscher treats his patients the way he would treat his own family members.” I did not truly know what she was talking about until I met you. The minute I did meet you I saw a real human being not typical of most doctors. You had a kind of face and a gentle way about you. I knew then that I was going to schedule my surgery with you. The surgery day arrived and you made your markings on me to prepare for the surgery. The next thing I remember before the anesthesia kicked in was the warm touch of your hand warming mine, because it was so cold in the operating room. I was then knocked out and my memory the rest of the day was unclear. I arrived at Prospect Heights Care Center where I planned to stay for awhile after surgery. Your daily visits was unheard of to me. I could not believe that you took so much time out of your day to care for me and check on my status daily. I could not even describe to you the appreciation and respect I have for you as a doctor. You are truly the most amazing doctor I have ever encountered and I have encountered many. I certainly did feel as though you treated me as a family member. Your family is very lucky to have you in their lives."
"Dear Dr. Rauscher and Staff – Thank you for all your hard work and perseverance in helping me to look better and feel better about myself. I believe this was one of the best things I have ever done for myself, and of course it would not have happened without you. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a peaceful 2006. You are the best! P.S. Stephanie – you did good!! Thank you."
"Dr. Wiener, A brief note to say Thank you for your excellence, kindness, skill, and follow-up before, during, and after my surgery. I appreciated the time that you took in explaining the procedure and the reassurance you gave me. I was anxious about the surgery, however, you and your staff eased my mind greatly. Please say Thank you to your staff. Everyone there is always pleasant, courteous, and helpful. Please give a special thanks to Donna, she is definitely an asset to your office. It has been my sincere pleasure in meeting you but must importantly thank you for helping to restore my self confidence through your work. In my opinion you are an excellent surgeon and a truly gifted man."
"Dr. Wiener, I understand your time is precious, but I just wanted to take a minute to tell you that I really appreciated the time you took to talk with my mom and myself! And for making me feel at ease. Your compassion is greatly appreciated."
"Dr. Wiener, Thank you for answering all my questions. You're a great surgeon with a wonderful personality. There are many Doctors, but only few really care about their patients. You are one of the "few" chosen ones."
"Thanks so much for the "new" me. I am very happy with the results! I also appreciate your kindness. You made me very comfortable and I always felt at ease in your care."
"I love the results! It's one of the best decisions that I have made regarding my body. I was told by a physician who I trust very much, that Dr. Kemsley is not only a great surgeon, but an artist at what he does."
"I had wanted my breasts done for a very long time and went to many doctors before consulting with Dr. Kemsley. Every one of them had planned to put my breasts under the muscle, but Dr. Kemsley took the time to explain why they should be above. I was nervous since I had never had surgery before. But both Dr. Kemsley and his staff were very reassuring and obviously knew what they were doing. I am so happy with the results – my breasts look and feel completely natural. Now I recommend him to everyone. It’s the best decision I ever made and the best money I ever spent.” T.L.
"The office staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, and Dr. Kemsley was very pleasant and comforting. This was the first time I ever had surgery so I was nervous, but I found the pain was very minimal and the healing went very quickly. And I am happy with the results. It has transformed the way I carry myself. The change was very much in proportion with my body as a whole and it’s fun to buy clothes now.” F.J.
"Dr. Kemsley understands what works aesthetically for each person’s body. Due to his surgical technique and experience, he can decrease tissue damage so recovery time is shortened. He knows where to put incisions so they can be hidden once the implants are in and the swelling is reduced. All this takes great finesse and attention to detail.” H.Y.
"The best plastic surgeon in town, in my opinion. It's hard to find a doctor who is not only incredibly talented, but also has an excellent bedside manner." M.G.
"Dr. Core and his staff are the best ever!!!!" B.
"Dr Core and his staff are amazing!! One word of advise; just trust Dr. Core, he is extremely talented!!" J.C.
"Dr. Vartivarian came highly recommended by my medical group after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Dr. Vartivarian is always very positive and upbeat. He is professional, very knowledgeable and confident in his work. He performed bilateral reconstructive surgery on me and I am very pleased with the results. Dr. Vartivarian and Rachel are extremely caring and compassionate people and I highly recommend them. Thank you for your help in my journey to being a breast cancer survivor! Love to you both." S.S.
"I am a breast cancer survivor and a patient of Dr. Vartivarian's. He made my struggle with chemotherapy and recovery the brightest part of each day. He and Rachel, are the some of the most personable, caring people in the medical field that I have dealt with, and I have dealt with quite a few through my battle with breast cancer. He did a fantastic job on my reconstruction and I couldn't be happier. I love both of them!"
"Dr. Vartivarian was my doctor for reconstructive surgery after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. As you can imagine this was a difficult time for me. Dr. Vartivarian was very caring and helped to make everything that I went through as easy for me as possible." M.
"Dr. Vartivarian was reccommended to me by a highly respected dermatologist located in the San Fernando Valley. I have been a patient of Dr. Vartivarians for the past 10 years. I had both upper lid and lower lid eye surgery 10 years ago. I am still very pleased with the results. Recently I had surgery to improve the look of my neck. This surgery was a success as well. My daughter had breast reduction surgery eight years ago. The results were everything she hoped for. The pre-op, surgery, and post-op care in each procedure were of the highest professional caliber, as well as office staff, anesthesiologist, and surgical nurse. I could not have been in better "hands"." L.B.
"I am a patient of Dr. Vartivarian and I am extremely satisfied with his professionalism and expertise. He is a very caring and compassionate doctor. With all my numerous office visits with him, and twice surgery, he was there with a big smile and a caring heart. I am extremely satisfied with the procedure that he has done for me. The after-care was definitely superb and I would highly recommend him to anybody.Dr. Vartivarian definitely made me feel that he knows what he is doing. He is indeed an expert in his field. Getting appointments through Rachel was a breeze. She worked with my schedule. Kudos to Dr. Vartivarian and Rachel. May their tribe increase. May we find more medical people like them who are truly caring. We need more people like them." M.G.
"I chose Dr Vartivarian because I needed reconstructive surgery due to breast cancer. He is the most caring and skilled doctor I have ever encountered. He is very positive and knowledgeable. He was always honest and realistic with me, but in a very sensitive and caring manner. I always felt completely comfortable and trusting of his medical opinion. My surgery results are amazing and his follow up care has been impeccable. I have trusted this doctor with my life and I would recommend him highly!" S.O.
"Dear Dr. Vartavarian, I just wanted to thank you for your concern for Eric. It is so rare in today's managed-care system to find doctors who actually care about their patients and individuals. Thanks again."
"Thanks for you caring, your expertise and then your wonderful hands. Made me a person again!!"
"Dr. Vartivarian, Thank you! You are a very wonderful and wise surgeon. I shall be eternally grateful to you."
"Dear Dr. V and Rahel, Well, the time has come for me to move on to my next phase in this life and this is where I'm headed - Sedona, AZ. Words cannot even express the love I have for you both and my appreciation for everything in these past 5 years. Much love and many blessings."
"Hi Dr. Vartivarian, Thanks so much for the awesome treatment and care you gave me. Thanks to you, I still have my adorable face...and my dog! You're the best!!"
"Dear Dr. Vartavarian, Rahel and Mary, I wanted to thank you all for your fantastic support and assistance!"
"Hello Doctor, I thought I'd drop you a note to let you know that I am enjoying my 'improved' nose. (I was tempted to say 'new' but then it would be a separate entity!) My friends and family love it too. My husband and I are impressed with your work. Thank you and your friendly staff."
"Dear Dr. Vartavarian, I really want to thank you so very much for making my surgery such an easy procedure. I had very little pain and discomfort and I really love what you have accomplished for me. You are an EXPERT. I also want to Thank Rahelle for her patience and understanding."
"I pride myself on looking young in a natural way and Dr. V has really helped me achieve that result. When I first came to him, I needed modification of a mediocre facelift. He did it over and the result was excellent. There was minimal pain and a quick recovery with the chin and neck area especially much improved. Then he did the Fraxel laser procedure on the skin on my face, neck and backs of my hands. All I can say is I often get compliments on my skin and I am very happy with it. I was so pleased with Dr. V’s work that I decided to correct a very tough problem: a botched liposuction which had left my stomach looking lumpy. No amount of abdominal crunches were able to correct this. He did a mini tummy tuck with a small amount of lipo and the problem, a particularly difficult one, was solved. I can now wear a bikini no problem. In addition Dr. V stitched up a large scar going from scalp line to eyebrow, the result of an accident. This scar is less than a year old and is now barely visible. I find Dr. V very available to answer any questions I might have, trust him implicitly, and would recommend him without hesitation which I have already done. Dr. V gave me a breast lift about a year and a half ago. I did not want to go any larger, I just wanted my breasts to be perkier. I am a size C already. Using the smallest saline implants so as not to increase the size, he lifted my breasts and repositioned the nipples, giving me a great result. There is a faint scar around the nipple which should fade even more with time but which isn’t noticeable. When I wear a low cut top I get many compliments." N.S.
"I have a friend who is an entertainment journalist…. she knows all of Hollywood’s Celebrity insider beauty secrets. When she told me about Dr. Vallecillos, I knew he must be the Best of the Best. I was a bit nervous as this was the first time I was getting injectables (Botox and Rejuvaderm) We spoke for quite awhile of what I was wishing to achieve. I wanted to have my lips plumped, but was fearful, as I had seen many “duck lips” in Hollywood. Dr.Vallecillos assured me that he would give my lips a natural and youthful appearance. He answered all of my questions and I felt completely at ease. Did I mention that he is a perfectionist… a good thing when you are having work done on your face!!! Fast forward five years, I have been seeing Dr. Vallecillos twice a year for what I call my Spring and Holiday sparkle magic. I secretly call him Dr. Lips …my lips look natural yet very sexy and youthful! I have highly recommended him all my friends and family. He recently did some surgery on a dear friend who had gone through some very challenging times. Her before and after was nothing short of miraculous. The best part is she feels and looks 10 years younger! Thank you Dr. Vallecillos… You are The Best!" N.P.
"My experience with Dr. Vallecillos was great. I was afraid of the surgery and pain, but Dr. V. assured me that he would take care of me. I followed the before and after care instructions and the recovery time was quick, within two weeks I was back to work. In a month there was a noticeable change and people started making comments on how great I looked. My breast feel and look very natural and the stomach looks great. I am very happy with the results and definitely would recommend Dr. V." I.R.
"I have known Dr. Vallecillos in the capacity of a physician and surgeon for over 11 years. When deciding to undergo my cosmetic procedure, I chose Dr. Vallecillos due to his aesthetic eye, keen surgical sense, and superior surgical aptitude. In short, I trust his judgment and skill set. His results speak for themselves. I am thoroughly satisfied with my results and recommend him without reservation."
"Dr. Vallecillos is an outstanding physician and surgeon who strives to provide superb patient care. I have worked with Dr. Vallecillos and admired his keen decision making and first-class surgical skills. Dr. Vallecillos is a warm and caring person who forms special bonds with his patients. His patients are touched by his caring and excellent surgical results. Dr. Vallecillos continues to stay current with the latest plastic surgical techniques. He takes an active role in education, and conducts seminars, instructing peers on the use of Botox and Juvederm. Lastly, I am not only a colleague, but a patient of Dr. Vallecillos. His care and skill resulting in an outstanding cosmetic and functional result following a traumatic injury. Any patient of Dr. Vallecillos will undoubtedly receive outstanding care." Dr. A.C.
"It is a great pleasure for me to recommend Glenn Vallecillos as a Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon. I have known Dr. Vallecillos for over 9 years and have personally witnessed his surgical skills. Dr. Vallecillos is exceptionally intelligent, and displays an unnatural ability to acquire and retain information. He has the rare quality found in a surgeon of being both a concrete and abstract thinker with an exceptional eye for aesthetics, while at the same time displaying uncanny technical dexterity. Doctor Vallecillos’ personal qualities are on par with his intellectual accomplishments. Not only is he a bright and talented surgeon, but he is also a compassionate physician and a great listener to his patients, a quality that is sometimes lacking among our professional colleagues. When I decided to undergo a cosmetic surgical procedure, I had the means and resources to see any surgeon in America. I chose Dr. Vallecillos and made a transcontinental trip for my procedure. He and his staff exceeded all of my expectations. I could no be happier or more impressed with my results. I endorse Dr. Vallecillos fully and without reservations." Dr. B.E.
"I like to take this opportunity to share a wonderful experience, complete satisfaction, and high professional standard regard I have for Dr. Vallecillos. During my initial consultation Dr. Vallecillos distinguished himself by taking the time to provide appropriate recommendations and explanations, in a quiet and comfortable environment, accommodating my need for privacy. I was extremely impressed with the high level of service provided by his staff and was grateful for his gifted surgical skills. Although I am a practicing Registered nurse, I was anxious about the procedure, however Dr. Vallecillos provided the assurance I needed to feel at ease. His pleasant demeanor and sense of humor, as well as his obvious professional passion and superior surgical acumen, made my overall experience, on that exceeded all expectations. I would highly recommend Dr. Vallecillos and feel fortunate to have met him." J.M.
"Dr. Davis & Staff, I just wanted to take a moment and thank all of you so very much for the wonderful car you have given me. I appreciate all the help that has been rendered to me throughout the past several weeks. Much gratitude." S.
"Dear Dr. Davis & Staff, I want to express my gratitude for your first-rate service from beginning to end. My results have far exceeded my expectations, and I am pleased that I waited for the best surgeon and staff. Thank you for making me feel more confident! Each staff member has been very encouraging and helpful and I wish you all continued success. Dr. Davis - you truly are a gifted surgeon. I greatly appreciate your compassionate manner and I have utmost trust in you." N.L.
"My experience with breast augmentation has been excellent. I debated doing this for 11 years, and I am so glad I finally took the plunge. Dr. Davis and his staff are wonderful, they have been nothing but supportive and compassionate from the first consult through the whole process to now, almost 4 months out. I went on 3 consults and by far, Dr. Davis and staff were the best. One of the plastic surgeons wanted to do it under local with sedation and the other wouldn't let me meet with him until I met his patient care coordinator first. I really liked that Dr. Davis was so available; I figured that if I needed him post op, he would have time for me. I was also glad to have an anesthesiologist (i.e., an anesthesiology doctor) rather than a nurse anesthetist running my case. I love the outcome -- my breasts are full and natural looking. I went with saline, 300L and 360R ( I was really uneven; now they are pretty darn near perfect.) I had a transaxial incision and I LOVE it. Recovery was easier than expected; I was back running 4 miles a day at only 10 days out, "( wearing two sports bras, :but running nonetheless!). I'm going back to him this fall or next spring for blepharoplasty. One of my co-workers also had him perform her blepharoplasty and she looks wonderful. Hope this helps!! 🙂 Good Luck with your decision!" G.H.
"My experience was perfect. Dr. Gill and the staff were courteous, professional and answered all of my questions. I love my after results! My surgery has changed my life completely and I know have more of a social lifestyle because of the boost of confidence. I loved the staff, office location, surgery center location and the way my surgery was handled from start to finish. When people compliment my figure, I probably shouldn't tell them that I have had work done but I can't help it. I say it was all Dr. Gill!" M.M.
"I LOVE DR. GILL AND HIS STAFF. Very professional and pleasant, I would do my tummy tuck a million times over. My jeans fit wonderfully. And People notice. The time he spent with me answering question and making me feel comfortable was a huge positive. Everyone I have encountered knows I have had a TT and who did it….I have given his name to anyone who would listen….family, friends, and patients. The quality of care was great from consultation, to preop, the Surgery Center was great and post op care was wonderful." M.C.
"My experience with Dr. Paul Gill has been very positive throughout my bilateral mastectomy and breast reconstruction. I found him to be one of the most caring, compassionate and gifted Dr.'s that I have ever met. Not only did he make me feel comfortable throughout my treatment, I feel like I made a friend in the process. My life was severely affected by the disfiguration of breast cancer. His gift of reconstruction made me feel whole and normal again which has dramatically affected my lifestyle. Dr. Gill always took the time to explain and discuss each procedure that I went through. I enjoyed getting to know the office staff. They are kind, personable and very helpful. I am extremely happy with the results of my breast reconstruction. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Gill to my family and friends. I am completely happy with the quality of care that I have received at Gill Plastic Surgery." S.M.
"From my first visit Dr. Gill explained what I will be looking at and I felt very confident in Dr. Gill after my first visit. I am still in Stage 1 of my procedures but I am amazed at how well everything turned out. I have had several nurses and Dr’s see Dr. Gill’s work and they were very impressed. The staff is great; they are always so cheerful and genuinely concerned about how you are doing." C.D.
"My experience with Dr. Gill and his staff was very positive. I found Dr. Gill to be very professional. I am very happy with the results. I had a tummy-tuck and breast augmentation. My breasts look lifted and much more youthful and I actually feel skinny for the first time in a long time. I was worried I would have a “boxy” look, like I have seen on some tummy-tuck patients, but I do not. I still have my waist and feminine definition! From the side, my stomach is completely flat and I know longer have the extra skin and pouch. Also, all my stretch marks are gone and my belly button is round and normal again. Dr. Gill and his staff were so kind to me and his two staff members I dealt with (Jennifer and Yvette) were very pleasant and always seemed to remember me when I came in. Both of them always smiled and made me very comfortable. Dr. Gill called to follow up on me after my surgery as well and I thought this was really rare and showed a great bedside manner. My fiancé raves all the time about how much he liked Dr. Gill and how comfortable he was with him doing my surgeries." S.M.
"Dr. Gill has been the most attentive and professional Doctor that I have had during my experience with breast cancer. He has gone over and above what I ever expected from a medical professional. Dr. Gill and his staff have been amazing. Being able to do a full reconstruction after a double mastectomy has made my life with cancer a lot easier to adjust to the physical changes that my body had to go through. Dr. Gill made my survival through this experience a lot easier to just know he was there for me as a patient and as a person. He is still a big supporter in my life. Breast Cancer and a double mastectomy is very detrimental yet having Dr. Gill as my plastic surgeon has made my experience much easier than I feel it would have been with any other doctor in his field. He is not just my doctor but he is a man that truly cares for the outcome of my situation. He is my friend and so is his staff. They are all simply amazing. I have recommended Dr. Gill to many of my co-workers as well as other women that I know are going through Breast Cancer. I also let my friends that are to improve their appearances that Dr. Gill is exceptional. He is the best in my opinion." E.K.
"I immediately felt at ease when I meant Dr. Gill. His knowledge, coupled with his warm personality, made a very uncomfortable situation more tolerable. I had been putting off seeing a doctor about my procedure because I was too embarrassed, but he put my fears to rest. I love my flat stomach. Oh, did I mention, I LOVE MY FLAT STOMACH! Thank you Dr Gill, you rock!!! I am able to wear cute tops that don't have to be baggy to cover up the "jelly roll". Would I refer my friends and family to Dr. Gill? ABSOLUTELY!!!!!! I already have. Hope they call you soon!!!" E.F.
"I am pleased and so thankful that I was referred to Dr. Gill; he is a miracle worker in my opinion! From my first visit I have been very pleased and Dr. Gill's caring attention and excellent surgical skills. He is by far the best in his field, I have had other surgeries performed but never by any as qualified as Dr. Gill. Future patients can expect to be pleased with the results of such expertise."
"I simply could not be more pleased. The facelift and eye lid surgery have made me look 10 years younger - and no one knows what i did to look so good. The results are so natural. I look and feel fabulous. As for the tummy tuck, well, what a treat to wear clothes comfortably and have curves in all the right places. I would go back to Dr. Gill again for any further plastic surgery that I would like to have done. I have the utmost confidence in him. His manner, his skills and the results he produces are absolutely the best. I've recommended him to others and will continue to do so."
"From the day I walked into Dr. Gills office for the initial free consultation, to the last post op appointment everything went smooth. I felt comfortable and confident I would achieve the outcome I wanted. I felt in good hands with Dr. Gill. I flt as I I were his only patient. I never had to wait in the waiting room, I got a personal call from Dr. Gill himself telling me his staff was not coming in because of ice and weather and rescheduled my appointment. I had access to his personal cell phone and when more medication or questions arose he made me feel comfortable calling him on a weekend. I would definitely go to Dr. Gill again for any other needs and recommend him to any one that needs this type of work. Dr. Gill's staff is top notch, his skills are impeccable and he is a magician in my book. Thanks."
"It was great. It was my first time having any type of surgery and everyone made me very comfortable and answered all questions politely no matter how many times I called! I would recommend Dr. Gill to everyone. He does great work and the staff is really friendly. I am actually thinking of getting more work done and will definitely be going to Dr. Gill!"
"Dr. Gill was amazing about informing me of my procedure. He is very knowledgeable and truthful. I love my results. This procedure was by far the best thing that I could have done for myself. Dr. Gill is a fantastic surgeon and I would recommend him to anyone. My overall experience was amazing. Dr. Gill is a wonderful surgeon. He is very knowledgeable and truthful. The staffs at Gill Plastic Surgery is extremely helpful and answer any questions or concerns. I love the outcome of my procedure. I have had such great care from Dr. Gill and his staff."
"I went to several consultations with different doctors. Dr. Gill was the one that took the time to explain and answer my questions. He was not in a hurry or expected me to understand what he was talking about. He explained his procedure in detail and I felt at ease with his recommendations."
"Dr. Gill, Thank you for all that you have done for me. Never in a million years did I ever think I could feel and look this great! Thanks to you my lifelong dream has come true. I don’t cringe in front of the mirror anymore. I love what I see and I plan on keeping my new body in tip top shape. I love the fact that I can wear cute clothes, sundresses and spaghetti strap shirts. Clothes I could never wear before. I just wanted to let you know you have profoundly changed my life in so many ways. Thank you for making me the luckiest girl in the world!" P.S.
"Dr. Gill explained everything about the procedure. He listened to my concerns, answered my questions. Overall I had complete confidence in him. I’m so thankful my husband took me to Dr. Gill. I was very confident in him. Now I feel and look more attractive. My husband is excited about my look and shows it. I feel better about myself. I feel & look years younger and people tell me so." E.C.
"Initial consultation was great. Dr. Gill made me feel comfortable during our meet and he sold himself to me. I had considered another plastic surgeon but after that consultation, I had made up my mind that I was going to go with Dr. Gill."
"Dr. Gill is professional and kind; a rare combination in today’s medical professionals. He is also responsive to phone calls and has a wonderful staff."
"An "awesome" experience for me! Dr. Gill and Staff are exceptionally professional, friendly, kind, gentle and totally respectful and wonderful! Dr. Gill and Staff treated me with respect and understanding and shared the excitement of the physical and emotional "journey" of my improvement! Absolutely elated for the first time in my life, it did not bother in the least to go to work (Nurse), wearing a hat and no makeup!" D.T.
"Dear Dr. Minniti and Staff, This letter will most likely reach you just after the holiday season, so I hope you are both relaxed and in good spirits for the new year. I thought of you because I am visiting a beautiful little beach town, Mar Bella, which is notorious for being the “Beverly Hills” of Spain. I came to thinking that you are worthy of another “Thank You” If I had to do everything all over again, I would undoubtedly choose your services again, Dr. Minniti. Only a few weeks after leaving San Diego and staying OUT of the salt water, my healing increased exponentially and I’m very happy with the results. You were very comforting throughout the whole process. I will be in for a check up as soon as I return, next summer. Look forward to seeing you at the beach." V.
"Dear Dr. Minniti, I am writing to you to express my utmost admiration for you. I cannot thank you enough for what you have done for me. If it wasn’t for your professionalism, warm and caring demeanor, and the big welcome back from you and Heather, I may have never tried breast augmentation. Your demeanor in handling a scheduling conflict this morning, absolutely bolstered my confidence in you. You are so easy going, fair and a great problem solver. I have not seen my breasts yet but I can tell through the bandages that I have fantastic breasts. My recovery has been shockingly easy. That is due to your skills as a surgeon. It was great to be able to watch what little it took to prepare your set up for surgery. Your nurse spoke very highly of you, and I thought you might want to know how highly they think of you as well." L.
"Dr. Minniti, Your care and concern for your patients makes you an exceptional surgeon. not to mention your ability to enhance a patient's beauty. Thank you for being a great surgeon and just plain being cool. Happy Holidays!"
"Dr. Minniti & Staff, I would like to thank everyone who was involved in taking care of me. you are all so pleasant, informative and made me feel comfortable. I will definitely refer my friend to Dr. Minniti & your staff." T.
"Dear Dr. Minniti, Just a little note to thank you for everything. I'm very pleased with the results and have this new-found confidence that I've never had before. It's not much, but this is a little something to help you stay awake when you have to "haul ass" to Thousand Oaks. Thank you again." C.K.
"Dear Dr. Minniti, Thank you for taking the extra time during my surgery to make sure everything came out okay. It meant a great deal to me as well as my mom. You are an incredibly talented surgeon with a charming personality to match. I appreciate all you and your staff did to make me feel comfortable. Thanks again. PS. I love my new nose!"
"Dear Dr. J. Gerald Minniti, This letter is to both thank and praise you for the are, compassion, skill and professionalism regarding the surgery of my daughter. We want to thank not only you but also especially Heather whose compassion and professionalism helped us through our anxieties and fears. Thank you also to the anesthesiologist, I believe there were two, one for each of the 2 consecutive surgeries. My daughter told me each provided her with comfort and confidence during this process of the procedures. Thank you also to the nurse in the recovery room where I was allowed to remain while she awoke from anesthesia. Thank you to all those who I did not see or meet but who helped behind the scenes to make the whole process, even with complications, be a positive experience for us. We are very happy with the results but especially happy with the process and the care that she and we received at your facility under your car. We would recommend you to anyone considering a similar procedure."
"Dear Dr. Minniti, Thank you for being my prince of plastic surgery! Through the magical touch of your hands, I awoke from a deep sleep with a few enhancements I had been dreaming of. Thank you for making me feel like a Princess!!" S.
"Dear Dr. Minniti, Thank you so much for all your time and care to make sure that I am happy with my nose. No... ecstatic is more accurate. You are an amazing doctor! Good luck with your new venture."
"Just a note to say Thank you! I love the effect and you were awesome! No pain at "all"." T.
"Dear Dr. Minniti, I want to thank you again for everything you've done; I admire and appreciate your work. You made me feel so comfortable during and anxious time. You and Heather make a great team and I wish you the best always. Ps. Mom and Dad send their regards!" P.

"Thank you for your wonderful support and understanding from the beginning of my surgery and through my recovery." B.R.
"Dear Dr. Chatson & Staff, Thank you so much for everything!!! It is so wonderful to look in the mirror everyday and be happy with what I see. I can't thank you enough for everything you have done." S.
"Thank you so much for your caring, and especially expertise. I am so happy with my surgery, it's the best decision I've ever made. My nose came out better than we ever hoped. Thanks for making me always feel so comfortable & cared for. You & your staff are wonderful & made the whole experience even better than I could've imagined. I feel like my old self again, even though I have a new nose. Thanks again & I continue to recommend your practice!" L.M.
"The best part of all is the boost in my self-confidence that I will enjoy for years to come. Dr. Mausner was able to transform my concerns about cosmetic surgery from fearful to miraculous." M.E.
"Thank you for the time, care and special attention you've given me during my lung cancer ordeal. I feel very lucky to have found you. I know you'll do your very best for me, as you do for all your patients." K.B.
"I am Very Happy with the results of the surgery and I am Extremely Grateful to you for doing such a Great Job! I am thankful to All the Staff who have been so Friendly and Pleasant!" C.S.
"You have touched my life and completed my circle. I am blessed to have you in my life." R.Y.
"I am securely confident in your expertise - I am deeply grateful for your kindness - And I am rendered (almost) speechless by your humanity. Praying you have a safe and fulfilling journey." M.V.
"Dear Doctors George and Blanka & Staff, The thoughtfulness you all have shown has meant so much and always will… For acts of kindness never fade, since time just makes them sweeter still. Thank you so much for everyone’s care and support. I am so happy with the results of my surgery. It has made a world of difference in my life. It’s been better than I ever could have expected." L.
"About 3 years ago my son came into the living room where I was writing. It was about 10:00 in the evening. My daughter had her arm around him and he was very upset. My daughter said “Mom, Jake has something to say to you.” He said, “Mom, please help me change the way I look.” He also told me that he was being teased at school. I told him that I would do what I could. I lied. I looked down at the pile of bills that I had. I remember how hopeless I felt. We had moved in with my Mom, I was a single mother and a teacher with a salary that could probably qualify for food stamps. I cried, alot. Jake’s self esteem was not good. Anytime he tried something new, he would be up the night before crying and worrying about how people would see him. Shortly after the 10:00 talk we had, I was helping out in Jake’s class. His teacher asked me if I had ever thought about doing something with Jake’s nose. I laughed. She said that she knew someone who might help. She phoned her friend, Barbara R., who phoned me. This all leads to you. The fact is, I would have driven to the North Pole, under water, to help Jake. You let us come, only 15 minutes away to Burbank. I know you don't like people to make a big deal about what you do for others. The truth is that the greatest thing any of us can do is to help someone in need – especially children. There are few of us how have this honor, and you do it so well. I thank God for you and so does Jake."
"Dear Dr. Orloff and staff, words can’t express what happiness you’ve brought to me I am so happy that I chose you to be my doctor. I think you are truly a remarkable doctor, as well as an artist with your hands! My family, friends and especially me are very grateful to you. Thank you so much."
"Dr. George Orloff, Dr. Blanka Orloff, Marcy, Rosemary, Alma + Luane I have never been to a doctor’s office in which all stalf has been as wonderful as yourselves. You have always been available for all my questions. My visits have been comforting + the healing process has been so positive and fast. Believe me when I say, I credit part of my recovery to you. Thank you for making my surgery experience a pleasant event in my life. Thanks you for 'Helping me to a New Me.'" S.F.
"I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you and your staff for your dedication, passion, professionalism, generosity, excellent customer service and compassion. I am absolutely pleased + satisfied with your work. I love my boobies along with my new husband! The latest treatments were awesome and gave me the results I wanted! Thanks Again!" E.Q.
"Dear Blanka and Dr. Orloff, First, let me take this opportunity as a patient's wife and now a patient myself for the concern you have shown to us. I know Bob has been completely satisfied with your expertize and knowledge. "Dear Blanka and Dr. Orloff, When moving away from a state we have lived in, we were so much in the dark over California’s medical field. Myself being in the medical field I am probably the worst to judge. From the Moment Bob entered your office, we were greeted with smiles from your staff feeling as if everyone really cared about our concerns. You as a doctor must take the time out to compliment all of them, keep some for yourself also. Again, I thank you for accepting me into your practice. I am forever grateful. Thank all of your once again." S.P.
"Dear Blanka and Dr. Orloff, I sincerely appreciate the generosity which involved both of you, as well as a great deal of kindness you showed me as you treated me with such care and concern. It means a great deal to me to have a “normal” ear again after 10 years! (I can hardly wait to wear earrings again!!) This basket is a special one – hand made – with a special message underneath. I’ve just recently returned from the quaint village in Dresden, Ohio, where these baskets are made. I hope you enjoy using it to its fullest uses. (I hope you enjoy our family recipe for “Molasses Cookies” as well!) Thank you, once again…" P.H.
"Drs. Blanka, George Orloff and Staff, I would like to thank all of you for everything that you did for me. I’m very happy with my surgery. I really appreciate all your help. God bless your always."
"Dr. Orloff Thank you so much for the excellent care that you and your staff provided for me over the past few month. I am so pleased with with how my reconstructive surgery turned out & I am convinced I could not have had a better surgeon to do the job. I look as good as new and I feel very privileged to have been under your care. You have one of the warmest and nicest staffs out of any doctors offices I’ve ever been to. Everyone was always so friendly and took such great care of me & it really helped me to get through the difficult period following my assault. Thank you again – I am so grateful for all that you have done! I can’t find the words to thank you." C.S.
"Dr. Orloff, Blanka, Rosemary, Marci, + Alma: Words are not sufficient for how I feel about all of you! You are by all means the most kind + wonderful people I’ve ever met! I never knew a medical staff could be so kind and truly caring towards their patients, me especially. I went in fearful + came out knowing all of you are truly blessed! I could go on + on because my heart is full of gratitude! I’m very happy with my new look! I’ve wanted this done for so long but was always afraid I’d never find a Dr, I could trust. Well, I did + God richly bless all of you! You’re special! Thank you for everything. I pray the best for all of you!" C.
"Dr’s Orloff + Staff You have all been so incredible in the service you have given me! I cannot thank you enough. You have each made me feel as if I was a member of your own family. I will be referring anyone who may be considering plastic surgery to you."
"Dear Dr. Orloff + Staff, Thank you so much for the kindness you have shown me through my surgery. I have never experienced a staff as wonderful as I have with all of you. Your kindness is greatly appreciated."
"Dear Dr. George & Dr. Blanka Orloff, + your entire team (a Wonderful One) Thank you for everything, and for your making my surgery and recovery such a peaceful + pleasant experience!"
"Drs. Blanka, George Orloff & Staff, I would like to thank all of you for everything that you did for me. I’m very happy with my surgery. I really appreciate all your help. God Bless you always."
"Dr. Orloff, I wish I knew a better way to say thank you – I wish there were words that would truly express just how much all you did meant to me. You hold a very special place in my heart and you will forever be part of my life!! Thank You So Much!" G.
"My heart is filled with joy and gratitude. I’m just so happy to have you as my doctor. You are such a caring + wonderful person and I thank God for you everyday that goes by. Thank you for making this possible, It’s a dream come true!"
"Dear Dr. Orloff and Staff, I would like to express my gratitude to you and your staff for a wonderful experience throughout my breast augmentation journey. From the first day that I stepped out of your office, I knew you were my first and last consultation. Actually, I knew at that first meeting with you because I sat down with Rosemary and scheduled what I call ….. my BIG DAY! I can actually say you are a man of your words. I appreciate your input. As far as the day of my surgery, I can only express how relaxed and excited I was. Again, thanks to your staff for making me feel that way. You did a fantastic job. I had very minimal bruising and pain, which has alot to do with the instruments that you use and, of course, I can’t go without saying you have a great pair of hands and sharp eyes. I am very happy with the results. I can only imagine how great I will look in the month ahead. If I could afford it I would come back for more work on my aging body. You can count on me for recommendations. Thank you!"
"...I am very pleased with the results of my face fat injections. I have a younger, fresher look. It is once again fun to apply makeup. I am more confident in my interactions with people and at ease within myself. The office staff is friendly, personable and warm. Dr. Bitar was always there for me when I needed him and showed his concern and care. He is a skilled cosmetic surgeon and I certainly recommend him." L.K.
"I am so happy with my breast implants, I would do the procedure all over again in a heartbeat." K.P.
"My eyes appeared tired and older than my years. The surgery that Dr. Bitar performed restored my appearance to be more youthful. My friends say that I appear more vibrant and confident! It even motivated me to make other positive changes in my life, such as weight loss, attention to my hair, and fashion." S.S.
"I sought out Dr. Bitar and two other plastic surgeons after losing 95 pounds from a gastric bypass. I told them I wanted perky breasts, a flat stomach and some liposuction on my saddlebag hips. Dr. Bitar spent a lot of time with me on that first consult, answering all my stupid questions, and his staff won me over. Pat and Ann were very attentive, helpful and patient. They were the icing on the cake I needed to make my decision. I had surgery on June 4th and went from a sagging E/F cup to a large C. I have perky breasts for the first time in over 30 years. I don't have to tuck my t-shirt up under my breast to absorb the sweat and I don't flop and jiggle all over the place. I can wear spaghetti strap camisoles with the shelf bra and it doesn't look like one continuous boob across my front. As for my stomach, it's flatter than I can ever remember and I don't have the saddlebags on my hips. I can wear sexy underwear and it's actually sexy on me. I went to my 30-year high school reunion and everyone was telling me, I hadn't aged a bit. Thanks to Mom for my great skin, Dr Anez for my bypass and, finally, Dr. Bitar for the icing." K.C.B.
"I can never express my sincere appreciation for the care that you have given me. Thank you for giving so much of yourself in sharing your technical skill and demonstrating your commitment to practicing plastic surgery at the highest level of excellence. You are truly blessed with an artistic eye and a highly sophisticated aesthetic sense. [You have] a clear vision of what is possible and appropriate, encompassing attention to detail to make your patients look fabulous. You are without a doubt one of the nicest and warmest compassionate doctors I have ever met. Your gifted spirit allows you to bring out the beauty in everyone, no matter how much or little they have already in their favor. All of these things not only make you an extraordinary surgeon, but also a wonderful person." Y.A.
"Dr. Bitar performed an Abdominoplasty with Hernia Repair and Liposuction to my inner and outer thighs. I was unhappy about the way I looked. I worked long hours and hard all of my life, and I wanted to do something for me. Dr. Bitar removed about 7-9lbs of fat during surgery. Most of the fat was removed from my thighs. Since surgery I now have a much flatter stomach and much, much thinner thighs. I also know that I will not see the final results from my surgery until 6 months out. I still have swelling in my mid section. Before surgery I wore a size 18 and now I'm between sizes 14 and 16. Even though I'm wearing a size 14, I have a much flatter stomach... Since I've had surgery I joined a gym (with the blessing to exercise from Dr. Bitar) about 2 months after surgery. ... I [still] have work that I must do to make me smaller. Since surgery, I now have energy and the will power to exercise and diet that I never had before. I actually look forward going to the gym. As for Dr. Bitar's staff, let me start with Diane (front desk) – cheerful, helpful and very positive. Pat (nurse) – She is the kindest person I've ever met. ... Pat excels in inter-personal communications, sparks enthusiasm; she is very competent in her job and very professional. What can I say about the best doctor around? Dr. Bitar constantly seeks to broaden his professional horizons. He attends seminars to maintain his knowledge on current procedures. He is very personable, kind, gentle and always takes time to listen. Dr. Bitar always wants to make sure that you understand the procedure that you are requesting. He will honestly tell you the pros and cons of the procedure. He will give you what time you need and you may call him at anytime. He's the best!" L.F.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar for an Abdominoplasty. I am very pleased with the results. I went down 2 pant sizes, my abdomen is flat and he was able to remove many of my stretch marks. At 38, I look better than I have in years. Clothes fit better and I am able to wear a two-piece bathing suit again for the first time since my pregnancy – 14 years ago! Dr. Bitar took a lot of time to explain everything and answered all my questions. He was available in the office or by phone whenever I needed him. His staff is wonderful, especially Lily!" M.B.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar for a Tummy tuck and Liposuction to reduce my waistline and hips. My results are outstanding. The surgery reduced my stomach and hips significantly and I went from a size 14 to a size 10. The surgery has given me an outstanding look at life and made me more confident as a person. I feel better at work and when in the public at special engagements. Dr. Bitar and the office staff are friendly and understanding." S.J.M.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar because I saw what a good experience my sister-in-law had. Her confidence was boosted with a breast augmentation with a reasonable rate. I decided to have a breast augmentation and fat injections to my lip with Dr. Bitar. I asked for a C cup, like I had when I was breastfeeding my kids. Dr. Bitar made me look proportionate, not overwhelming, head-turning or fake. It felt great when I heard the comment 'you look really good in that outfit.' My clothes do fit better. Personally, I feel like I can pick anything out of my existing wardrobe, especially the tank tops I felt too intimidated to wear certain places, and can now expand my wardrobe and feel good in anything. Professionally and psychologically it is allowing me to get more in touch with my feminine side, not so much a 'tom boy.' I feel more confident and sexy for myself and my husband. The best part about my experience with Dr. Bitar and the office staff was how impressed Dr. Bitar was with the results and him asking if I was ready to pose for Playboy." S.K.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar because I had a 'tire tube' from having three children and putting on extra weight for 12 years. I had a tummy tuck and breast lifts with augmentation. The results were more that I could have imagined. My stomach has never been so flat. Having been overweight I decided that I wanted a healthier lifestyle. I lost weight, started working out but still couldn't lose the roll around my middle. Having had the surgery my self esteem has risen, and I no longer hide behind baggy clothes. I feel more confident, more outgoing and have more energy. Dr. Bitar and his staff couldn't be more wonderful. He always has time to go over the details and I never felt rushed. Dr. Bitar put me at ease the moment I met him with his wonderful bedside manner." C.J.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar to get a Tummy Tuck and Liposuction on my stomach, hips, inner and outer thighs, and buttocks. I went from a size 12 to a size 8. I had a flabby tummy due to pregnancy, and now it is flat and firm. My thighs are smaller and shapelier. I am more confident in my looks and can't wait to have my next surgery. I have loved dealing with Dr. Bitar. He is so kind and checked on me often to make sure I was feeling okay. Dr. Bitar is very patient oriented and meticulous in his work. His staff is wonderful and friendly." M.V.D.
"I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how I am doing post surgery and to thank you so much for your fine work. I had nearly severed the tip of the middle finger on my left hand completely off in an accident involving a crane. I remember telling you just before I went into the OR that if you had any doubt that the tip of my finger could be saved to go ahead and amputate it. I am happy to tell you that my finger is nearly 100% today. Every time I work with my hands I think about how grateful I am that you made the decision to save my finger. Thank you so much again for the great job you did for me." F.K.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar for my neck 'wattle.' I had the neck lift procedure done about two months ago and most of the swelling is gone and my neck looks 95% better. I feel more self-confident about the way I look – no more 'old lady' neck. My husband, who didn't think I really needed the surgery, has commented on how much better I look. Dr. Bitar and his staff are very friendly and willing to answer any and all questions preoperatively and postoperatively." F.H.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar because I was interested in having a neck lift and eyelid lifts. The results are FANTASTIC! I am very pleased with the surgery and how much better I look. I definitely look younger and less tired. I intend to have some additional cosmetic surgery soon because I am so pleased with the results of the first surgery. Dr. Bitar is always very personable and straight forward. He takes the time to answer all questions. His staff is truly wonderful, also very friendly and helpful." C.D.
"Previous surgeons performed plastic surgery on my nose and I was dissatisfied with the results, so I searched for other Northern Virginia cosmetic surgeons and came to see Dr. Bitar. I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Bitar and it was very successful. I am very pleased with the results. I am more confident and feel more beautiful. The surgery has increased my confidence and has psychologically made me a happier person. The entire staff is very helpful and professional at all times. Dr. Bitar explained the entire procedure thoroughly. He is experienced and a true professional." P.L.
"I came to see Dr. Bitar because I had bags under my eyes with excess skin and fat. Dr. Bitar performed upper and lower eyelid lifts on me and I'm seeing amazing results. I don't look tired anymore. My eyes look longer and brighter. I think because I look better, I feel better. Professionally, I need to look well maintained and now I do. I would say that the entire surgical experience was pleasant and professional. The staff was very helpful and considerate. Dr. Bitar Is thorough and very personable. Thank you, Dr. Bitar and staff, very much." R.L.
"When I came to Dr. Bitar I was status post Gastric Bypass and had a lot of skin on my stomach. I had a tummy tuck and I'm pleased with my results. Since my surgery, I have noticed that people treat me so much better and my works seems to be better now too. Physiologically, I feel much stronger then before the surgery. Dr. Bitar is one of the nicest Northern Virginia cosmetic surgeons I have ever met. I felt comfortable from the very first time I spoke to him. Every time I go back to his office the staff are very kind. I would recommend anyone to this wonderful Northern Virginia cosmetic surgeon." N.G.
"My experience with Dr. George Bitar was probably up there in the "top 5" of my life, for many reasons. Having just come out of the most difficult years of my life,I was seeking to fulfill a promise I had made to myself during those years: that I would someday "get back" the breasts I used to have before I had children! and I wasn't going to waste my money on anyone but the best. Dr. Bitar came to me highly recommended. I knew from the first phone call that he was literally Godsend. I had never experienced a doctor more attentive, sensitive and caring. Being a doctor- a very busy one at that- I was amazed how he made the time, on his own initiative, to build a rapport relationship with me. A pronounced understanding exuded from him. He cared more about me and my well being that wanting my business. As far as his work? BRAVO! He gave me the breasts that he could take pride in as well as enhancing my lips. It was always his priority to make everything look as natural as possible for my body, and he succeeded in doing that. I will never go to another doctor for I have been blessed with the best! Thank you." V.L.
"I had a Bilateral Breast Reduction and Bilateral Upper Blepharoplasties. I feel better physically and even feel that I am once again ‘in control’ of my body and its appearance. I feel proud of myself, that I took action to remedy a problem that could be resolved. I have come to praise plastic surgery and its positive benefits and without hesitation, I would elect plastic surgery again. Since my surgery I feel better about myself. My self-esteem has been renewed, and I even have a sense of pride that I had the courage to remedy a physical and psychological problem. I like the fit of my clothes since my surgery and that has restored my confidence in my outward appearance. I am enjoying the compliments of those who ask if I’ve lost weight or those noting that my face looks thinner (because of my, now, opened eyes)! I feel so much better about ‘me’ because I look better and have confidence in that outer appearance which, before my surgery, was clouded by extreme self-consciousness. Now, I feel great! I look great! And I am very, very pleased with the outcome of my surgery. I have two words to describe Dr. Bitar and his office staff – warmth and compassion. Dr. Bitar and his staff, especially Pat, his nurse, and Diane, his receptionist, made my pre- and post-operative appointments most enjoyable experiences. I felt more like a ‘friend’ than just a patient. Pat and Diane take the time to get to know Dr. Bitar’s patients and their needs. They remember names and greet you with welcoming conversation. You are made to feel that you are cared about and that you are much more than just a name or number to them. Dr. Bitar greets you with enthusiasm and optimism, and it is very evident that he is caring and that he wants to be of help to his patients. My overall experience with Dr. Bitar and his staff was a most positive one in every respect. Truly, it was a surgical procedure, medicine, with a human touch.” N.W.
"Just wanted to send a note to thank you for the amazing job you did on my breasts. After seeing you yesterday and looking at my before and after pictures I realized how lucky I am to end up with my new breasts. More important your patience and understanding was the best. Than you for everything. I also want to thank Lisa who was great in answering so many questions. I feel so fortunate to have chosen you as my plastic surgeon and would recommend you without questions." M.C.
"In July 2007 my husband and I decided that I would have surgery to enhance my looks. My husband told me to look for a doctor that I felt comfortable with. So I hit the internet researching doctor profiles, credentials, and information on different types of surgeries. After long hours on the internet ONE Doctor stood out to me. That was Dr. Leber. I read all about him and looked at all the pictures of his surgeries, read his surgery techniques, talked it over with my husband and decided he was our Doctor. I called and made a consultation appointment. We were greeted by Lisa and she showed us more pictures, she spent time with us and we never felt rushed at all. We were given an estimate for my surgery along with a time frame it would take to do. Lisa gave us some papers to fill out and we applied for a loan at home. We made a surgery date of Aug-27-2007. But I'm a special case for Dr. Leber. I have cardimyopathy (enlarged heart). 11 years ago I was ont he transplant list. He would do my surgery if I was cleared by my cardiologist. So I had to do a few extra tests compared to most patients. That is why I picked Dr. Leber I knew he was certified in both plastic and general surgery and was able to take care of me and my heart. Dr. Leber made me feel like he honestly cared about me and my well being not just doing surgery. I made it through with flying colors I have had a tummy tuck, breast augmentation and liposuction. The results are wonderful!!!!! My husband came with me to all my appointments. He now calls me a Hottie. I also went on the obagi system. WOW my skin is wonderful. My dark spots are almost completely gone. I don't wear foundation anymore, just a bit of powder. People have asked me what I am doing to myself. They say my face glows and I look younger. Of course I tell them OBAGI ( I don't have to be pregnant to have a glow now, that's the best part). It is now 4 months since surgery. Thank you to all the staff for talking to me on the phone and helping me with my extra tests needed for my cardiologist. Lisa, thank you for telling me about Obagi and for my new glow. A very big thank you to you Dr. Leber for taking time for me and my heart. For doing such a wonderful job and making me into a HOTTIE (as my husband says)."
"You did a Breast Augmentation for my wife and I just wanted to say Thank You. Every thing worked out wonderfuly, and it transformed the way she carries herself. For myself, they look and feel great. Your work is top notch." R.B.
"We chose Dr. Leber's office because it provided everything we were looking for. Their brochures and letters were very professional and informative. Dr. Leber and his staff are wonderful. Everyone is very nice and professional. I will definately be back!" L.C.
"The before and after pictures were unbelievable. After my visit, I just knew that I was extremely comfortable and knew you would do awesome and I had no fear. Thank you so much for making the whole process a breeze. After my first consult I knew you were extremely good at what you do. I wasn't nervous about the surgery at all. Sometimes I can't believe that I finally got what I have always wanted." D.M.
"It is one year to the date of my surgery and just wanted todrop a token of my appreciation for your expertise. You have made a huge difference in my life by helping me reach my potential both inside and out. So step back and smell the roses because I know I am not the only one that thinks this. Cheers to a doctor who is great at what they do and makes it a true art." S.D.
"It means a lot to have a doctor who is as gifted and as caring as you are. I hope you know how much you're appreciated. You said the tummy tuck would change my life and it has. It's hard to put into words what it has meant to me. It's like a miracle. I told my aunt I feel like I've been touched by an angel. You know when you meet people and can sense that they are doing exactly what they were meant to be doing? That is definitely you Dr. Leber. I can now wear a belt as simple as that sounds. I'm very excited by that! I wore a swimsuit at my pool party yesterday in front of lots of people and did not quickly go to grab a towel to cover up my middle.All in all the whole experience was not near as bad as I thought it would be, in terms of pain. I feel really great right now. So thanks for changing my life Dr. Leber." N.B.
"I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you for everything. You all have been so good to me, and I can't thank you enough for everything. I have been so pleased with my results and love referring you to all my friends. You are very good at what you do. Your staff is always so kind and always make me feel so comfortable. I will continue to refer you to all my friends and family because I adore you all. Thank you so much!!!" M.H.
"Almost two years ago, my sister and I came to you in search of confidence that we were not able to achieve on our own. With your help and amazing work on my nose, I now have that confidence. I am so happy with the results. The results have impacted me immensly. I now no longer look at myself and dread having to go out in public with a huge nose or look at pictures and focus on my nose. I couldn't be happier with your work. Thank you so much!" A.K.
"I just wanted to send a special thank you note for all that you did for me. I am so happy with the results! Your professionalism, thoroughness, attention to detail, quality of work, organization, knowledge, office staff, and surgery facility were all top notch. Everything from the first appointment to the recovery room was much easier than I ever expected. You also took special care to ensure my safety was the first concern, which helped me feel at ease and I knew I was in good hands. Again, thank you so much! I couldn't be happier with the results." S.A.
"I wanted to tell you once again how much I appreciate your wonderful work on my breasts! On my first visit, I felt that you listened to me and what I hoped to achieve. You took the time to explain (and show) what I could realistically gain. I felt comfortable with you. And, now 3 months later, I am so happy with the results! You EXCEEDED my expectations! When I look at the "before and after" pictures, all I can say is "WOW"! Thank you, Dr. Leber!!!" B.A.
"The office was beautiful, the staff was beautiful, friendly, and helpful. I felt comfortable with everyone. The doctor was fun and easy to relate to. It made my decision to choose this practice a very easy one. And the website was amazing. Words cannot express how I feel about my surgical results! My results exceeded my expectations!!! Dr. Leber is amazing I'm completely happy with my experience. He makes me want to have more, but he would never tell me I need it. That's a great doctor! Thank you for the great experience. I look natural, feel beautiful and feel this practice is doing amazing. The feeling I get when I'm there makes me not want to leave, that's truly a gift. Thank you to everyone there!!" J.B.
"I have had several procedures performed by Dr. Macdonald...her professionalism and that of her staff exceeds any other that I have encountered..."
"My experince with Dr. Macdonald has been excellent...Will be back for more if I ever need it!"
"I have had breast augmentation with Dr. Macdonald, and am elated with the results. Everything from the anesthesia to the recovery - was a positive experience. I am looking forward to future plastic surgery procedures."
"Dear Dr. Solomon, I just want to thank you for your professionalism, exceptional work and the time you spent explaining procedures. I will highly recommend your services to anyone interested in the work that was done on me."
"Dr. Solomon, I as a patient of yours am very grateful for the outstanding job that you and your staff have provided for me over the last year. Thank G-d for men like you. I am grateful for all you have done, thanks again."
"Dear Dr. Solomon, You have brought me back from the brink of death too many times to count!! I have been fortunate to have been the beneficiary of all your tremendous medical skills. In my darkest hour at Memorial at about 10:00 pm, I was so touched that you would take the time from your busy schedule to offer me guidance. I will never forget all that you have done for me. Thank you again!!"
"Dearest Dr. Solomon, When I was 15 or 16 years old, I named my breasts "Flo" & "Arnold". They were trailer-trash tits. Peasant tits. Now, I've got princess tits, and I just love them! And they're not just pretty- they're comfortable, too. Thank you so much for my beautiful new breasts."
”Dr. Solomon, I want you to know that I had the best surgeon for the job. You are confident and technically great at what you do and your bedside manner is wonderfully warm and caring. I felt so well cared for, especially during those annoying post-op days. Your tenderness and support were so healing.”
”Dr. Solomon, Thank you for everything. Needless to say, I’m very pleased and feel like a new woman because of your excellent work!”
”Dr. Solomon and Staff: I want to thank all of you so much for helping me make this experience, (my surgery), such a pleasant one! You have all been there for me with every question or concern I’ve had. Having trust and confidence in you all has eased a lot of my worries.”
”Dr. Solomon, I thank God for you and your hands. You are a perfectionist in your work and I am thankful I was under your care.”
To Dr. Snider, Marcia, Kathy & Diana, Thanks for all your kind professionalism and care. M.K.A.
To Dr. Snider & Staff, Thank you! I just wanted to thank you guys for the Laser! Both my legs and face look great. Thank you for the opportunity of being your poster child. D.
It is nice to see the before and after photos and realize the difference a couple of sizes makes not only to the visual eye but in my sensual mentality. I had settled for many years with what God gave me but I am glad I took this step and had the procedure done. I feel Fantastic!!!!! Thank you again I will recommend you to any all. Not only for the physical outcome but the "bedside manner” so to speak. You and your staff are a joy to work with and make the decision much easier to make. M.F.
"All the kings horses, and all the kings men, could not put ‘Ms. S.B.’ back together again.” But you could and did. Thank you from the deepest essence of my heart. As a small token of my respect and gratitude, I’ve designed a special quilt for you and your wife. Hand quilting takes time, I’ll have it finished by December, and it will be on it’s way to your office. S.B.
"...It's wonderful! I now look as young on the outside as I feel on the inside. Dr. Donath and his entire staff were not only very professional, but thoughtful and caring, too! Thank all of you so very much...." M.H.
"...I first remember being self-conscious about my body in the 5th grade. Decades passed and it didn’t get any better. I dieted and exercised. I finally considered surgical procedures, but was very hesitant. I was amazed at how comfortable I felt even during my initial visit simply to inquire about my procedure. I cannot emphasize how calming and informative Dr. Donath and his staff were, attending to my every question and, later, to my every need. The care I received went above the typical doctor/staff-patient relationship; I was treated like a friend or family member. I am thoroughly happy and satisfied with my results. I can’t thank Dr. Donath and his staff enough...." K.D.
"...Dr. Donath and his staff were extremely knowledgeable and detailed when explaining what was to go on before, during, and after my surgery. After being hesitant to have cosmetic surgery, one year later I am extremely happy with my results and I feel so much more confident about myself. I would definitely recommend Dr. D for any procedure, big or small. Thanks for caring and fabulous work!..." R.C.
"...After consulting with three different doctors, when I met Dr. Donath, I knew he was the right surgeon to perform my breast reduction. Dr. Donath and his staff are competent and very compassionate. I couldn’t imagine how great the results would be, but now that I’ve recovered from surgery, I’ve never been happier with my body. Thank you, Dr. Donath, for a brand new life!..." L.E.S.
"...Dr. D and Sonya should hold classes on Patient Care and Comfort. You have perfected this down to a fine science. You make discomfort a pure pleasure. Thank you so much for your expertise and the pleasure of your company...." P.L.
"...I was referred to Dr. Donath by a friend. Even though I am a nurse, and even though this was elective cosmetic surgery, it was important to me that I had a surgeon whom I trusted and a staff that put me at ease. My surgery went well and has been very successful...." R.W.
"...Dr. Donath, Sonya, and their entire staff gave me the best care before, during, and for one entire year after my tummy tuck surgery. Dr. Donath likes to make sure everything goes really well. They never rushed to get to other patients! My surgery and recovery went very well. Everyone in Dr.Donath's office made me feel important. They are very caring in all respects...." L.L.
"...I have had two procedures done with Dr. Donath and have been very pleased with the outcome of both. I find Dr. Donath and his staff to be very professional, caring, and genuinely concerned for my comfort and well-being...." M.W.
"...I must admit that not only am I satisfied with these saline implants after 25 years with silicone implants and hearing that I would like silicone better a second time – I am so thankful that I listened to Dr. Donath as a doctor first and a plastic surgeon second. After going through two surgeries – first to remove the leaking silicone implants and second to augment the breasts using saline implants – I am now 5 months postoperative and just turned 50 years old this year. My breasts not only look natural (non-augmented) but absolutely gorgeous. I, my husband, my family and friends, agree that it reflects nothing but beauty and class. Love to Dr. Donath and his staff!..." M.E.A.
"...I can't say enough great things about Dr. Donath and his staff! I continue to be thrilled with the results from my surgery almost 2 years ago and have seen Dr. Donath for other minor procedures since then. I am always impressed with how much time Dr. Donath spends explaining every aspect of a procedure to ensure I am completely comfortable & confident with my decision. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Donath's services to anyone considering plastic surgery - from the smallest of procedures to the most complicated surgeries! Thanks for all you do to help me look my best!..." K.F.
"...My most recent surgery with the Central Coast Institute for Plastic Surgery was, by far, the most pleasant experience I have had with the medical society in a very long time. Everything that was involved with my procedure was explained to me in detail. I was made extremely comfortable before, during, and following my surgery. The office staff is most friendly and welcoming and concerned for my comfort..." R.H.
"...Every morning I was depressed to look in the mirror at my saggy neck and jowls. I tried facial exercises, nothing helped. I was afraid to have surgery. After several consultations with various plastic surgeons, and viewing work that friends have had done, I chose Dr. Donath to transform my face and neck. I have been so happy with the outcome. It was a wonderful life changing experience. I was thrilled to have it done and happily surprised that it was much easier than expected. I was out shopping in 5 days and felt great. Dr. Donath and the girls in his office made me feel so very comfortable and confident...." C.L.
"...Having plastic surgery was something I thought I would never do. One day I looked into the mirror and realized I looked tired and saggy. I am healthy and very energetic. My face simply did not match the way I felt. Being the cautious type, I did some research before choosing a physician. Three of my friends had work done by Dr. Donath, including an R.N. All three looked wonderful, and all three were very happy they had Dr. Donath do their work. I now look 10 years younger, but very natural. I love the results!..." J.L.
"Your abdominal surgery has done more for my chronic back pain than anything has, since my accident and lumbar rupture back in February of 1996. I chose you for two reasons. My best friend considers you the best Doctor on the face of the planet. Secondly, as an RN, I recognized your Harvard education and surgical training as what it is: the best...I wanted to give you this good report, because it's been a year and a half now, since you stitched me up. Here's the Big Bonus: I can now ballroom dance with the best! I have my body back. I have my life back. Thank you Dr.
