Fast forward to a week ago, I had a second procedure, and once again, everything was just as amazing--if not better! From the consultation to post-op care, everything was seamless. Dr. Smith took the time to listen to what I wanted while also providing his professional input. His staff is incredible--attentive, organized, and genuinely caring. It felt like VIP treatment from start to finish! The ladies in the office were just as excited for me as I was, celebrating my journey right alongside me. Three days before my surgery, they called to check in and make sure I was all set. On the day of, the nurses were fantastic, my anesthesiologist answered all my questions, and Dr. Smith came in to check on me, making me feel completely at ease. Post-surgery, everything went smoothly. Dr. Smith personally called me that evening to check in, which meant so much. I had no pain--just the expected soreness--and by day five, I was already walking outside and feeling great. My post-op appointment went just as well! If you're considering a procedure, I cannot recommend Dr. Aaron Smith and his team enough. Their care, professionalism, and expertise are truly unmatched! It's only been a little bit over a week and I love my results so far!!! I never got a consultation from anyone else, I knew after having my first breast augmentation that I was going back to him. I referred friends to him that have used him also and they too cannot be any happier!!!! Thank you Dr, Smith!!!

Someone called me directly, and I told her I couldn't connect but would be back in the US on the Monday before my Friday surgery. She said that was plenty of time to fill it out as all I needed was 48 hours. I filled out the passport upon my return only to find out there was a list of drugs that I couldn't take from three days to two weeks before the surgery. I take Plavix, and that needed seven days off of it. So, my surgeon canceled the surgery. I don't see how "48 hours is enough" when some of the drugs need two weeks abstinence. Now, I have to wait six months until I can have my surgery.

I love when nurses have a good attitude and laid back. I need to run to the restroom before we checked my vitals so we could get an accurate reading. Well that just sent me over the top. There's only one in the back and it was nasty. I just couldn't believe it. Someone went in there and pooped. Left the toilet full of it and "DIDN'T FLUSH THE TOILET"!!! Now my issue with this was there were 2 nurses posted up by the door and I know they smelled it... so the fact that they didn't flush it.. I heard them talking about it but didn't know they were talking about that restroom until I walked in. I had every opportunity to name drop the nurses (male and female) but my hubby asked me not too..:/ This is why I prefer early Saturday mornings around 7:45am.. Other than that mishap everything was cool. Mrs. Mandi definitely help me brighten my mood.

Don't go to him if anything is near your eyes. Because the angle my outer eye was left with moisture and tears to flow to the outside of my cheek, it required plastic surgery again 6 months later by someone who knew how to do plastic surgery near the eyes. The last time I saw him he said an ophthalmic plastic surgeon would have to fix it. Why did he accept a case so close to the eye in the first place if he was not qualified. I know other patients who have also said he is arrogant and cares nothing about the pain he inflicts on patients in aftercare. Should I mention he claimed to return calls after I was concerned right after surgery? Hmmm my cell phone showed no such calls. Maybe realize cell phones will confirm or deny your efforts to communicate!

The follow-up phone call is a nice addition to what I thought was going to be a very unpleasant experience, I was wrong for sure! It has been 2 weeks today that I had this procedure done and it has been seamless. I have recommended Dr. Nelson to a friend who's son needs to have his wisdom teeth pulled. I sure hope they go to Dr. Nelson and his staff, I know they won't be disappointed! If myself or anyone in my family ever needs these kind of procedures done, we will definitely go back to CS Oral Surgery and Dr. Nelson. Thank you to Dr. Nelson and his staff for everything and making this a positive experience and not a negative one! You are all wonderful!
