"In an effort to make this a more valuable experience for you, I describe my philosophy of cosmetic surgery generally, as well as my personal approach to each cosmetic procedure that I perform.

I treat each of my patients as I would treat a member of my own family and only make the kind of recommendations to them that I would make to someone dear to me. I believe that it is just as important to point out when patients do not need a particular procedure as when they do.

Each patient's needs are unique and I work with my patients to formulate a plan that will realize their individual goals. It is my belief that listening to patients describe their desires and expectations is the most important part of this process.

When considering cosmetic surgery, simple is often better and the best result is one that looks the most natural."

Testimonials


Testi "Dr. Tattelbaum,

For me the surgery was a life altering experience. I was very self-conscious around my friends before the breast augmentation. After the "surgery" I felt more comfortable with my appearance and it has allowed me to be more outgoing around my friends. Thank you so much!!"


Testi "Dr. Tattelbaum,

It has been almost 6 weeks since my breast augmentation surgery and I am writing to let you know how thrilled I am. I'm so happy with the recommendations you made - my proportions are perfect! Thank you and your wonderful staff for a job well-done!"


Testi "Greetings Dr. Tattelbaum!

I know you have a million patients but perhaps you may remember me if I mention I am on your website for breast augmentation. I am still one of your patients who is a big raving fan of the individualized care you provide. In addition to grad school, I am taking on another "challenge" - the Breast Cancer 3 day. I will walk 60 miles over the course of 3 days and sleep in a tent by night. Would you please consider sponsoring me by donating to this worthy cause? I would greatly appreciate your support. Wishing you and your family a New Year filled with joy, love and peace. Ps. A friend of mine is seriously considering some procedures so I may be accompanying her to a consultation in your office. Look forward to seeing you."


Testi "I honestly don't know where to begin to thank you for such an amazing experience from start to finish. From the moment I walked into your office and was greeted by such a personable and professional staff, to my initial consultation, to the actual procedure, to my immediate follow up phone calls with my worrisome questions. I cannot thank you enough. Especially coming from another cosmetic surgery practice that doesn't nearly compare to your caliber--- you truly need to be commended. ...your bedside manner was out of this world as was the nurses in the surgery center."

Testi "Dr. Tattelbaum, I am coming up on my 1 year since my surgery and I couldn't be happier with the results of my breast augmentation. I want to thank you very much, since I never realized the affect that having this procedure would have, but it has done wonders for me on an emotional level. I really am thrilled with all of the results, both physically and emotionally."

Testi "Dr. Tattelbaum,

You have completely changed my life! I am so very pleased with the results that you gave me, with the tummy tuck. I feel good, I look great, and I never thought I would ever be wearing those hip huggers or bikini's that the young girls wear. Now, that is all I ever wear (and I wear them real well). I want to thank you and your incredible staff for getting me through the beginning of the post-op. They are very friendly and caring. They made me feel welcomed and helped me through the ordeal. I have to say, in a very cocky and conceited way, the work you did on me, was your best work you have ever done! At least I feel that way! Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you!!!!!"

Testi "I recently began my search for a plastic surgeon and I believe that it has ended here! I felt so comfortable with Dr. Tattelbaum's warm manner and professionalism. He answered all of my questions and made me feel excited about my planned procedure. To top it off I received a PERSONALIZED letter from him after my consultation dictating the risks associated with my procedure, etc."


Testi "Hello Dr. Tattelbaum,

Thank you so much for sending me those photos. I am in shock! Even though it has only been 3 months, I have already forgotten what I looked like before. You did a wonderful job!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

Thanks again!"

Testi "Thank you Dr. Tattelbaum for my surgery, I cannot thank you enough. Thank you for being patient. Thank you for the work you did on me, I no longer have to wear those uncomfortable enhancers I used to stuff in my bra. Thank you!!

You and your staff and the nurses at the center where I had the surgery performed are the most professional and friendly people I have ever met. I was made very comfortable and happy at all times. Thank you Dr. Tattelbaum for what you did for me. May God bless you. Thank you for your care."

Testi "Dr. Tattelbaum:

I am not sure if I ever properly thanked you and your wonderful staff for making my Breast Augmentation a wonderful experience. I am sure you can appreciate that fact that the decision to have elective surgery is difficult. I am very glad to have had you and your staff readily available to assist me during the 3 months prior to my surgery. You really made me feel if I was your only client.

Never once did I feel like "just a patient”, and I feel that this is your biggest attribute. Anyone can read your web page and see that your decorated in education and the like, but the way you treat your clients is what has set you apart from others for me. Not to mention, that I am very happy with my results, and can’t wait to see you at my 12 weeks check up!

Thank You Thank You Thank You!!"


Testi "We just wanted you to know that we appreciated your professionalism and perfectionism! You have made what is a very emotional experience, extremely positive. The work you accomplished on my wife has been a work of art! We would recommend you as the perfect surgeon to all! Thank you!"
