Verified Patient Reviews for Francisco Canales, MD
Kind and professional.
Before I arrived at your facility, I had a great phone conversation with Stephanie. She made me feel so comfortable that I walked into your facility with confidence. The facility itself is beautiful. While clean and professional, it felt like a special place. Dr. Canales was fantastic. His approach to a casual conversation leading up to the exam was appreciated. It was so nice to learn more about him. We chatted about our home rice test with him and what was important to us. I am 100% confident that Dr. Canales can handle this surgery with my best interests in mind. My husband agrees as well!
Excellent care.
All went well, I was satisfied how it all went. Dr. Canalas was very nice and explained everything. I felt good after his appointment, it was the pamphlet that had me worried all the things that can go wrong. Kary was good too just for and older person she talked too fast, confusing.
The appointment went well. Nothing took place to make me feel highly satisfied.
I had to wait 45 minutes in the waiting room . Which made me think this is not the place I want to get surgery. Then I met the doctor and I changed my mind. He explained everything and made me comfortable
Dr. Canales and his staff are so friendly and made me feel very comfortable. The Doctor answered all my questions and gave me a realistic idea of what I could expect from my results.
Surgery was easy and recovery was painless.Dr. Canales is wonderful. Results exceed expectations. Highly recommend.
I expected a noticeable change and was disappointed with the outcome. I discussed this with Dr. C and he explained that he didn't want to leave my skin saggy. I would like to have had this discussion before the surgery so that I could have made the decision myself. Now I am considering thighplasty to get my desired results.
Dr. Canales is the only plastic surgeon I will ever go to. Not only am I 100% satisfied with how I look and feel, but the surgery was like nothing and the recovery was a breeze & staff at Plastic Surgery Associates of Santa Rosa are very nice and helpful. Someone was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had, making the entire process itself as stress free as possible I knew I was in good hands. Since my breast augmentation I love the way I look in clothes & I feel so much better about myself. Thank you.
