My entire journey from first consultation to final post surgery check up has been wonderful. The entire staff has been courteous, and professional. I think the procedure took years off of my age visually.

I am so happy with the care that I received, and the results of my mommy makeover. Dr. Salazar is an artist. I was seeking corrective surgery from a lift/augmentation that I had 10 yrs ago, and I couldn't be happier with the results! I'm so glad that I decided to also do the tummy tuck at the same time. I feel like I have my body back after all these years (and 2 kids).

Dr. Breister was very professional. She and her team were there to answer any questions along the way. I had a minor complication after the surgery and was seen the same day. I am very happy with the results. I no longer have back and neck pain and am very happy with the shape and size of my new breasts.

Yes, Dr. Salazar was very helpful in explaining everything before it was done. He made me feel at ease and I was able to understand him because of how well he explained everything to me.

Dr. Swistun is who I had a consultation with and he was nothing short of WONDERFUL. He was very thorough and made sure to answer all of my questions with absolutely no rush at all. He certainly shows his care for his patients and I was not even a patient yet ~ it made my decision all the more easy to go in the direction of him performing my surgery. I was very nervous about the way my surgery was going to go for unique reasons and he made me very comfortable and described every possibility with pros / cons to each. When he knew what my priorities were, he honored them and made sure that I felt absolutely confident in my choice prior to leaving the office and scheduling my surgery. This was an amazing experience!

Dr. Salazar and his assistant took the time to answer all my questions and concerns. Making the decision to do a mini tummy tuck vs full was a big decision and he certainly calmed any concerns and outlined the pros and cons of both - allowing me to make a very educated final decision.
