Testi "I wanted to thank you and your staff for all of the kindnesses extended to me this past year during my journey through breast cancer. I couldn't have done it without your care, concern and support. You are the best!"
C.P.


Testi "Thanks again for all you've done. Each of you are all so very special to me and have made me feel like a valued member of your "family" since my very first visit. It means a lot to feel so welcomed when so much of what I am facing is a big, scary uncertainty. Knowing you are there and understand helps relieve some of that fear of the unknown. Thank you everyone!"


Testi "I just had to write a quick note to say that I am a patient of Dr. Ghaderi from almost seven years ago and I have had SO many positive comments from health professionals over the past seven years about how amazing my breasts look! Most people are shocked that I have implants when they find out… Hope all of you are well!!"
J.T.


Testi "…I have not told any of my friends about the surgery but they are complimenting me on how well I look and did I find a new hairdresser!! I just smile and say no but that I had a great rest in Chicago…I must thank you all for your attention and especially you, Dr Ghaderi. It was a huge decision to travel to Chicago for surgery not having had any experience of the American medical care system. The hospital care was just outstanding and I felt safe and secure from the moment I was admitted. Please thank the staff there on my behalf. I am so pleased I had the surgery and feel I now look as enthusiastic and happy with life as I have always felt inside, the tired appearance on my face has disappeared to be replaced by freshness which is exactly what I wanted but did not dream would ever see. Dr Ghaderi you have a gift in your surgical technique and I wish you many many years of good health and success in your career."


Testi "Thank you for your kindness while under your care. It is appreciated more than I can say."

Testi "This is from a 5-year cancer survivor who is proud to say she is 50 years old! Thanks to Dr. Ghaderi and his staff, especially Dale, I was able to have something good come out of the very difficult path of cancer recovery. Dr. Ghaderi's artistic eye and skillful surgeon's hands combine to sculpt the body with such symmetry and precision. What a gift to someone with this illness! Dr. Ghaderi, you once told me that your goal was that my husband and I would one day "forget" about this difficult time; well, that time has come. I am very happy with the appearance of my breasts and also the way you treated me as a patient and have recommended you to several friends. Several physicians have remarked that the surgical result is the best they have seen, and a mammography technologist said she was very surprised I had implants — that she couldn't tell by looking (and she has seen a LOT of implants). Kudos to you and your staff on your professionalism and respect for each patient's modesty and overall health. I will definitely be back to you for any future procedure(s) as needed!"


Testi "Thank you again and again for taking such good care of me!"

Testi "All my clothes fit great, but most important is I feel great about the way I look. My stomach looks great! Dr. Ghaderi even went so far as to have a nutritionist go over and review my diet and exercise to keep me on target. My abdomen has no flab and I'm actually wearing and feel great for the first time in a two-piece swimsuit!"
B.S.


Testi "Hi - my name is A----. I am 10 years old. I had plastic surgery on my ears. I was a little bit scared, but after it was done I was so glad I did it. It looks so much better."
A.


Testi "Just a note to thank you for making me look and feel great. I am so very happy that I chose you to do my tummy tuck. From the moment I walked into your office and spoke to you for the first time, I knew you would be the one to do this procedure for me. You made me feel very comfortable and answered all my questions before I even asked you. If it were not for you helping me get through my fear of being put under and the procedure itself, I would not have gone through with it. I also thank Dale, Jessica and Cindy for always being so kind. I would love for you to post my before and after pictures on your website to let people know how I feel about you, your staff and the procedure. Thanks again for my wonderful new look."
J.


Testi "Words cannot express my sincere appreciation and thanks to you for the amazing results on my tummy tuck. As a person who struggled for years with my weight and is constantly being judged by looks, rather than what's inside, this surgery has given me a nice boost in how I feel about myself. With a boost in my confidence, this will allow me to move forward in many aspects of my life. Doc, you have a special gift! Thank you for my nice, new look."
A.W.


Testi "The entire process from my first meeting with Dr. Ghaderi and his staff through post-op was much easier than I had expected. This was something I had thought about for a long time but finally decided to go through with. I am a nurse and the attention to detail and compassion that Dr. Ghaderi and his staff showed me was unlike any other doctor I have worked with. I would highly recommend St. Charles Plastic Surgery to anyone who is considering plastic surgery and am sure I will be back again in the future."

Testi "I always hated the idea of wearing a bra, none-the-less a padded bra. I knew it was time to do something about it. Some women may question any sort of cosmetic surgeries. They don't know how it feels to not feel complete. Not having breasts takes away your feeling of being a woman. I wanted to regain that confidence that mother nature forgot to give me. I truly recommend Dr. Ghaderi for all the women out there who want their womanhood restored. I would do this surgery again in a heartbeat. Dr. Ghaderi is my mother nature."
A.


Testi "I am currently planning two vacations and the end results are incredible. I definitely feel that I had waited too long to have this done. I feel more confident and I love the way I look in my clothes without having to wear a padded bra."
K.


Testi "I feel and look great in a bathing suit."
