I had a 23-year-old implant rupture and Dr. Rhee handled everything with such care, transparency, and expertise. He walked me through every option, listened to what I wanted, and made me feel completely confident. The outcome is far better than I ever expected. Even the nurses mentioned they can always tell which patients are his because he’s a true perfectionist. I couldn’t recommend him more!

This is actually my second time getting my breasts done, and I couldn't be more excited about the results! I've loved my breasts my whole life, but after having a baby and breastfeeding for a year, I finally decided to do something for myself and boost my confidence. Two years ago, I had my first breast augmentation elsewhere, but the outcome wasn't what I hoped for—having two very different-sized implants and a double bubble was disappointing. I brought up my concerns, but I was quickly shut down. The surgeon was minimally responsive, and I didn’t feel confident about returning. However, I kept hearing great things about Dr. Rhee, so I decided to go for a consultation. Best decision ever! His incredible attention to detail and thorough explanations exceeded my expectations. Thanks to Dr. Rhee and his amazing team, I now feel confident and happy with my transformed look—it's honestly life-changing! I’m beyond thrilled with the results and grateful to have found such a skilled and caring doctor.

Choosing Dr. Archibald was truly the best decision I could’ve made for my rhinoplasty and septoplasty. After consulting with six different surgeons across three states, he was the only one I truly felt I could trust. I was honestly terrified to go through with surgery, but from the very first appointment, Dr. Archibald made me feel completely comfortable and reassured. He took the time to listen to all my concerns, explained everything in detail, and never made me feel rushed or pressured. His calm, caring approach gave me the confidence I needed to move forward. My recovery was so much smoother than I ever expected. I’d heard so many horror stories about pain and swelling after rhinoplasty, but my experience was completely different. It was surprisingly comfortable, and I healed faster than I imagined. His entire staff was so kind and compassionate, not only in his office but also the hospital staff he works with. Everyone I met went above and beyond to make sure I was cared for and supported throughout my entire healing journey. Driving out to Castle Rock for every consultation, surgery, and post-op appointment was 100% worth it. Dr. Archibald not only helped me breathe better but also gave me the confidence back and I will always grateful for that. I truly couldn’t recommend him and his amazing staff enough!

Dr. Rhee and his staff were truly wonderful. From setting my appointment to, my first consultation, to the actual procedure, they were kind, caring, and made my experience special. I had so many questions and didn’t know anything about the process but they made me feel comfortable every step of the way. Dr. Rhee was very comforting in explaining each step and ensuring that I was going to be happy with the outcome. I cannot recommend him and his practice enough.

When I was given a list of plastic surgeons for breast reconstruction, I started making calls - a lot of calls. I knew I’d found my doctor when I spoke with Dr. Rhee’s team. While I was aware they were handling endless patient calls and appointments, I always felt I had their undivided attention. Meeting with Dr. Rhee felt exactly the same. He agreed to meet me and my husband on a Friday after 5pm, when anyone else would’ve rather been elsewhere. However, rather than rush through the appointment, he took the time to go over my diagnosis, the anatomy of my breasts, the different surgery paths with each of their pro’s and con’s and, perhaps most notably, he promised me I was “going to be just fine” at a time when I wasn’t sure if I was. Coincidentally, I was having coffee with a mom-friend two weeks ago and she asked who my plastic surgeon is. When I shared Dr. Rhee’s name, she said “Oh wow! He’s the best there is. He’s all over the social media mom groups as the trusted plastic surgeon.” I can attest that Dr. Rhee’s reputation is well earned as he’s mastered the art and science of our most “beautiful” pursuits (all with excellent bedside manner). We are so fortunate to have him here in Douglas County. A big heartfelt thank you to Dr. Rhee and his team for stitching me back together. Somehow this wild journey is making me feel more whole from the inside out and I am thankful I get to walk through this with them. Dr. Rhee is the only doctor I’d recommend to my closest friends and family for plastic surgery and I hope this offers some reassurance to anyone considering working with him (just do it!).

He had 1 job. If a plastic surgeon cannot get filler right then I give up. Specifically went out of my way to get there. Paid for a car service...
