Testimonials


Testi "To Dr. Pummill & Staff,

Thank you for all the things you've done, I really appreciate it."
D.


Testi "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?)"

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!!"

Testi "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."

Testi "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."
