Oct 14, 2024Dr. Guarda explained in the initial visit what to expect during and after the procedure. The patient care before and during the procedure was handled with care, tenderness and explanations. This is my second dealings with her & both were something that was necessary. Wish all doctors were like her. I'm not Bob Bryan as in the above picture

Sep 23, 2024Dr. Guardia was very kind, and knowledgeable about methods in resolving my issue. I felt comfortable talking with her about my problem. The nurse and administrative staff were also very pleasant. For the entire office to be kind, compassionate, friendly and competent is a rare find. I wish I could award many more stars.

Mar 28, 2024Dr. Guarda is the best in the 757 area! Her & Mrs. Teresa are always amazing. They are both attentive all the time. I’ve had surgery previously by Dr. Guarda and I was 150% satisfied with my results! I look forward to my next visit with these ladies. The office is always so clean and well groomed and not to mention it smells amazing! She’s the best!!!!!!!

Mar 29, 2017I've been doing botox for years and I have no shame admitting it to anyone. :) Since moving to Virginia, I've struggled with finding a new "Botox Master"....
