The staff were amazing. I literally had no pain!
Everyone was very friendly and professional. I was taking in on time. The procedure was explained to me prior to my having my surgery. I was given one blankets to make me comfortable.

My back no longer hurts, my breast look great again, Dr. Zhu was amazing and meticulous the entire staff are like family
I was satisfied with my experience. Dr. Liang is amazing and the facility was very nice. The only thing I didn’t like is that the anesthesia provider would not give me gas to inhale to relax me before inserting the if as was given to me at 2 previous procedures at this facility. I am severely vasovagel and that helps a lot! The anesthesia provider refused to give it to me and insisted on doing the iv the normal way. She waited for my Valium to start working and stuck me twice until it worked. I ended up having to put a blanket under my head to try to think about something else. It was a bad experience….in retrospect, I think the reason she wouldn’t do it is that she might have been newer and not comfortable doing what was necessary to make me feel more comfortable. My experience would have been perfect otherwise.
Very thorough, made the whole process easy and most of all the results are great!
From the initial consultation which was thorough and informative, to scheduling, pre and post op was seamless
