First Dr.Micheal and the team especially Leah has taken great care of me with in the last two years. I am very with this review because I’m always on the go. I travel from New York City to see Dr Micheal’s I have had a tummy tuck just one year ago and my scar is basically faded away and beautiful. I also get filler for the under eye youthful glow and lip to give my a littel life. Dr Micheal has always listened to me and my concern and I repeat NEVER look over done. I trust no other team with my procedure’s. And I say team because the customer service from beginning to end .

Dr. Michaels and his office staff are amazing! I have never met a doctor who gets back to you so fast when you have a question. My results are better than I ever expected them to be.

I recently had an extended tummy tuck, liposuction to the back, flanks, and abdomen, and breast lift with auto augmentation. I am an out-of-state patient and found him through social media. His work is phenomenal. His staff made setting up a virtual consult very easy as was the entire process. He listened to my wants and desires for my body after 130 lb weightless and exceeded my expectations by far. My incisions are so thin and precise, healing time was minimal, and the overall outcome is everything I could have ever hoped for. He displays excellent bed side manner and shows true compassion for his patients. He is very personable and always available for you to voice your concerns. If you’re looking for a plastic surgery, I cannot recommend Dr. Joseph Michaels enough. There just simply is not enough praise. He has completely changed my life and brought my weight loss journey full circle.

I have never had my lips done by anyone better! I have gone back multiple times and even referred a few people and they have been just as happy. He tells you honestly how much you need for natural results and gives you a fair and reasonable price. I highly recommend him. Him and his staff are all very professional as well!
