Dr Gerstle is a kind and caring surgeon. He explains all procedures in an understanding manner. He never rushes and always spends the time to make you feel comfortable. He is available both after hours and on weekends. I would highly recommend him for all proceeds. I am very pleased with my results.

Dr. Henry Wells preformed my Mommy-Makeover surgery in December 2010 and it was the best decision I ever made!!! Dr. Wells is an OUTSTANDING surgeon with such a caring and loving staff. I am so glad that I decided to go with him and even eight years later, my results are still wonderful. His ability to do the extensive surgery of a tummy tuck and breast reduction/lift and leave hardly any scars demonstrates what an excellent plastic surgeon he is!!!! I also went back two years later and he worked on my chin (basically because I had zero chin line) and once again, his work was wonderful and still, six years later, my chin still looks awesome!!! I would never even consider another plastic surgeon anywhere in the world when I have the very best!!!!

Great customer care. They really take time to understand your own individual personal needs and they are able to come up with the best procedures, skin care plan or recommendations that benefit your overall health. Wonderful people to work with and a very welcoming staff.
