"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…"
"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!
"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."
