The resulting scars from my breast augmentation are awful. It's been six years that I've been living with visible scarring, ESPECIALLY the nipples. Awful! I'm considering medical tattooing to try to make them look better. I should've left this review years ago, but as time goes on I get more pissed! I do not recommend. read more

I deeply regret trusting this surgeon. The procedure left me with noticeable disfigurement around my eyes. The outcome has been emotionally and physically devastating, and I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. I would advise anyone to stay away from this botchlord read more

I really wanted a "40 year tune-up" and I chose Dr. McFate after receiving a great recommendation and seeing amazing results from a friend who also chose him. I received a a breast lift and added implants after speaking with Dr. McFate about my goals. Dr. McFate is truly great at what he does. He was extremely professional and kind throughout the entire process. The day of surgery went so smooth from expectations about what to expect afterwards and communication with my husband about how surgery was going. I would not consider myself to have a very high pain tolerance, and I truly expected to be laid up in bed for several days afterwards. I was very surprised to not need the pain medication prescribed. At most I just felt a little sore and that was only sometimes. I know everyone is different, but I attribute it to the care Dr. McFate takes during surgery. I received amazing results. Truly life-changing surgery that I wish I would've done sooner. Special thanks to his amazing staff and his nurse Denise. His nurse was so sweet and so supportive. She's a rockstar and I appreciated all of kind words and help. read more

Words cannot express the quality of care I received from Dr. McFate and his phenomenal nurses. It took real courage to undergo elective surgery, and they handled my emotions delicately. My results are so incredibly natural and lovely that I feel whole again. I have smaller breasts after a reduction and lift, and my stomach has been restored to pre baby shape. The surgical center is attached to the main office for convenience, and it is brand new and very clean. I deserved this, and I will never question this major decision. I only wish I had done it sooner. read more

While Dr. McFate was a delight to work with, his office staff have been more than disappointing. They do not have enough support, which means the support for the patients suffers. They do not return emails or phone calls and struggle to send the simplest of documentations. read more

Dr. McFate was one of multiple highly credentialed referrals. After interviewing all, I chose Dr. McFate because of his long-time full-body plastic surgery experience, a fully accredited on-site surgical suite, patient endorsements, and finally, equally important was Dr. McFate's clear & focused communications style and warm engaging personality. When one calls or visits Dr. McFate's office you know you've arrived at a happy, caring, destination where confidence and pride of expertise is palpable: MAYA and DENISE are super-star professionals and a joy to interact with, as is the practice's phone & office front arena professional, kind welcoming ESLA! The past 30 years I've had surgeries and dermal filler procedures with plastic surgeons in Washington, DC, Maryland & Texas and my surgery and dermal filler experiences with Dr. McFate is #1 over all others I've experienced! read more

I've been having pain in my whole left leg from buttocks to calf. Started a couple months after surgery then got worse. I went for X-rays recently thinking it was arthritis. diagnosed with granuloma. Worse pain ever. Can't sleep from it. Now on pain killers. Thanks Doc! read more

No idea where to begin, but 5 stars is not enough for Dr. McFate and his team. In October of 2020 I had a MMO with Dr. McFate and everything went great before and during surgery. What I didn't know (and of course the Dr. didn't know) at the time was that I am allergic to the antibiotic, Bactrin! 3 days post-op I started to experience burning of my skin and a rash all over. Of course, I was in pain and not very mobile because of my surgery, but I was concerned with why I was getting a rash all over my arms, legs, and chest. I also had a low grade fever. I thought maybe it was the narcotic I was prescribed for the pain, or a combination of all the meds. Since we were in the middle of a pandemic, I had my husband call 911 since he would not be able to take me to the emergency room (they were not allowing people in unless you were the patient - and I could barely move to get in the car anyway. My surgery was on a Thursday, it was now Saturday/Sunday (midnight or so), so I couldnt call Dr. McFate - so I thought. EMS shows up and checks me and all the meds I was taking and advised me to stop taking the narcotic as they thought it was causing my reaction and fever and said that it can cause a rash and elevate the body temp sometimes. They did not feel it was necessary to take me to the ER at the time, especially with COVID19 cases. They leave and I think we are good and I will be fine. THEN, about 10 mins later we get a call from "City of Austin", the lady on the phone tells me that they reviewed the notes from the EMS team, including the meds I was on, and were VERY concerned that what I was experiencing was more severe and they were sending EMS back to get me to take me to the hospital, and they did just that. I had to go to the ER by myself, without my husband, and it was terrible. They were moving me around, lifting me, poking me, examining me and decided to keep me overnight because they thought I was experiencing something called Steven Johnsons Syndrome (SJS), which is a terrible reaction to an antibiotic that causes rash, blistering and makes your skin fall off after a few days. I was not given any pain meds while there because they had to be sure of what was causing the rash and fever. I was 3 days post-op of a MMO (tummy tuck, muscle repair, lipo, and breast augmentation) and I was being moved around and was in so much pain, I just cried. I gave the ER doctor the name of my surgeon and his number and later found out that HE NEVER CALLED Dr. McFate who could have told him everything I had done and what meds I was on, etc. I stayed overnight and was released late the next day after they found out that I was having an allergic reaction to Bactrin (apparently, this is very common with this drug) but caught it in time to prevent a more severe reaction - like SJS. I was finally allowed to go home but had to wait for my husband to come get me - still in so much pain. After that visit to the hospital, things got worse and one of my breast incisions rejected the stitch. It opened it up, and I had to be restitched within two weeks. Then the other breast incision popped open and this went back and forth, nearly every other week for 3 and half months. I had to be restitched by Dr. McFate over and over again (my choice). He did everything right, ordered blood work 3 times to make sure there was no underlying issue that was preventing me from healing. The bloodwork came back clear every time! I had 2 COVID test done, both negative. I had the pockets flushed a couple of times which would seem to be working for a few days, then bam, opened again. Finally, he came in the room on one of my weekly visits and said - "I cannot keep doing this to you, it is time that we go back in the surgery room and remove the implants. We will soak them in antibiotic solution and really do a thorough examination of your pockets to make sure there is nothing in there. All of the test are coming back clear and there is no logical explanation as to why your skin will not grow back together" . He performed a revision surgery in February of 2021. He did not charge me for any surgical fees and from the very begining of my journey was honest, caring, and truly looked out for me and my well being. I really had the opportunity to bond with him and his staff. They all were so concerned for me, watched me cry through the pain and truly showed me that I was not just "another patient" to them, but that they really wanted to see me and my husband through this crazy time and they were determined to make it happen for me. He never gave up, was so positive the whole time which kept me and my husband positive which really helped us get through it. Turns out, E-coli founds its way into my breast pocket and I can't help but feel that it was during the visit to the ER when they had several medical interns moving me around and checking me while I was fresh out of surgery. I actually plan on returning to Dr. McFate in the near future for another procedure. read more

Five starts isn't enough of a rating for this facility; Dr. McFate and his team deserve 10+ stars in my opinion! There is absolutely no other Doctor to consider getting plastic surgery from. I met with 2 other surgeons/offices and am SO HAPPY I chose Dr. McFate. I had a breast reduction and I could not be more pleased with my results. Dr. McFate took time to answer every single of one of my questions. He never made me feel rushed during any appointment or that I was asking "silly" questions. He set clear expectations as to what I could expect and he did not disappoint. He's a very talent surgeon but he is also a genuinely nice guy! Sarah is the Practice Manager of the facility and she is GEM. She took time to go through additional questions I had regarding payments, recovery, and more. Anything that I needed from her (note for my gym, insurance Superbill requests, what to wear after the procedure etc.) was already handled before I could even ask. The woman thinks of everything before I even could! To say she has a pleasant demeanor is an understatement; she makes visiting the office enjoyable and not nerve racking at all. Shari, Natalie and Goldie were in the room the day I had my procedure. Shari greeted me when I arrived and instantly put me at ease as I was feeling quite anxious that day. Natalie walked me through how I'd be "put under"in EXTREME detail making me feel confident about what I was about to do. I only met Goldie for a few minutes before "taking my nap" but she had a big smile on her face and was telling me that I had absolutely nothing to worry about. Cindy is the awesome receptionist who would help me book appointments, call me with reminders and always greeted me with a smile when I arrived/left. Claire is the office medical assistant who helped get my vitals before/after my procedure and also help me when coming in for post op appointments. Some other great things to point out, the facility is exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The facility is also a grade A surgical facility so you don't have to have your procedures done elsewhere (and pay a hefty operating room fee!). You will not find a better staff than the folks at Precision Plastic Surgery. Every single person treated me with the utmost respect during any visit. I felt like each person I interacted with knew this was a big deal to me and wanted to make me feel as comfortable & educated about what I was going to do. The two other offices didn't have staff that could even come close. If you are considering getting any type of plastic surgery AT ALL I would highly recommend getting it done by Dr. McFate and his amazing team. You WILL NOT be disappointed. Thank you again, Precision Plastic Surgery! read more

Dr. McFate performed my mommy makeover.. My RN was amazing, anesthesia provider answered all of my questions. All of my post op appointments were thorough. Everyone was very involved in my care from start to finish and truly cares. Their medical assistant is nothing short of amazing! Everyone there makes you feel comfortable and cared for. They are very consistent. read more

Where do I even begin.. Dr. McFate is an exceptional surgeon and cares so much about his patients! He has COMPLETELY changed my life for the better! I am in LOVE with my smaller, perkier breast!!! I have suffered with having gigantic breast ever since I started growing breast. After 2 kids, My breast size grew to a size 36K! I've had a few consultations for a Breast Reduction with different practices throughout the years, but no one gave me that instant comforting feeling as Dr. McFate did. During our consultation He's very personable, truly listens, and made me feel very comfortable. And most importantly, with every appointment, he never makes me feel rushed. I knew this was it! On surgery day, once he was complete, he went to sit with my family and talk with them a while! That was pretty awesome! Dr. McFate and his staff are so wonderful. A very pleasant experience. I couldn't be any happier with my results! Definitely a dream come true! If I could give Precision of Austin to anyone 100 stars, I would! read more

I'm very grateful for Dr.Mcfate and all the staff members for giving me my confidence back. I'm very small framed and had a very big boy who I love dearly but I was left with a large amount of loose skin that no matter what I did to get rid of just could not. The process for my tummy tuck was so amazing and smooth from the beginning starting with the consultation all the way to the surgery and recovery period. This entire experience has been a blessing and I'm so happy and love my body again! Thank you again! read more

I will not go to anyone else for my Botox! Love Dr. Mc. Fate & his staff! The injections are near-painless with good results. I have super deep lines on my forehead & some killer crows feet, but they are no match for Dr. Mc. Fate! Beth, the assistant, is super sweet & helps to distract during injections. Dr. Mc. Fate is not your typical big-headed, cocky, plastic surgeon. He's a super chill down-to-Earth dude! I feel that I am always able to get a great deal when I go. Appointments are always right on time. Thanks PPS! See you guys in a few months! read more

Five stars and beyond to Precision Plastic Surgery!! Dr. McFate helped me see a younger face with no down time.

I am continuing to see a natural difference in my "problem areas" and will see changes for months to come with results that last years!!! The staff could not have been kinder and always there to answer my questions- Dr. McFate is is truly a master at his work and always wants the best and most natural outcome for his patients. read more

Like any military veteran, remaining in top physical shape is taught as a priority in which this attitude normally carries over into civilian life with outcomes of feeling and looking great. However, at some point your body is going to tell you that days of strict training and high physical activity are over. This is where my story begins as my body said "no more" in addition to the onset of unwanted changes after turning the big "40". Post back and hip surgery, I was in way less pain, however, I found myself limited regardless of the excellent work from my back and hip surgeons they had performed! I was constantly at a challenge to obtain my old physique but just could not perform in the gym the way I use to. After the long trials of modifying exercise and changing techniques, I decided to explore alternatives which led me to liposuction. As part of me remained doubtful of the results, I went against my apprehension and scheduled the surgery with Dr John McFate which I am thankful that I did! Dr McFate and his team at Precision Plastic Surgery recognized my concerns and with a thorough overview eased my thoughts as he calmy addressed my fears and doubts along with his team! I knew there was something unique about this clinic as the answers were realistic, encouraging, and confident that has proved itself all the way through to where I am today. I mostly appreciate the doctor's knowledge and cultural awareness as for what would be best in my situation. As a black female, my desire was to maintain my curves in which Dr McFate flawlessly achieved! There were plenty of opportunities to take it advantage of my eagerness to get this completed but he did nothing of the sort . Not only was his recommendations of the best quality, they are one of the few clinics that I have spoken to which honor veterans and did so with the military discount. I am more than elated and feel like my old physical self again which I never thought was possible in my life. As they say...I got my sexy back! It feels amazing when others respond to you with "wow" and I would more than recommend Dr McFate for anybody looking to explore any form of body contouring . read more

I got my calf implants done by Dr. McFate, nothing but good things to say. From the get go I had such a great experience, I was planning on going to a few consultations with different doctors but I immediately clicked with Dr. McFate, he was so honest with what he thought would look good on me that he immediately made me feel so comfortable. His staff is pretty amazing as well, Cindy was so help full through out my recovery, she would answer any questions I had and help keep me calm (I did call a few times back to back but she was so patient every time). I recommend him one hundred percent, I am so happy with my results. About the procedure: 1-Got the procedure done in May and they still feel a bit tender (4 months ago) but not bad and no more pain. It does feel weird when I shave the part of the leg that has the implant but it's not bad and it is getting much better. 2-First two months my legs were pretty swollen and walking was not easy (was walking super slow) 3-I had to wear compression garments and that was the hardest part of the recovery because they are hard to put on and kinda painful specially when the legs are swollen. 4-I went through the whole recovery alone, I would recommend to have someone to help if possible but not completely necessary (we each know our strengths) 5-Had to keep my legs elevated for almost the full first two months, had to sleep in the couch because it was the only place I could sleep comfortably with my legs up. *hope this helps answer questions that someone might have. read more

I had few consults with different plastic surgeon's including with Dr.McFate since it would be my first cosmetic surgery. Decided to go with Dr. McFate 1. He took the time to answer all my questions (not like few others that I could tell had a rush to finish the consult). 2. The price was super reasonable! 3. The girls (Staff) are amazing! They make you feel so comfortable and help in every way they can. Two friends of mines also consulted with Dr.McFate and are pleased with having him as their surgieron. If I decided to have a next procedure will definitely be back to Precision! read more

Dr. McFate is an exceptional surgeon and physician who clearly cares about each patients. I chose him after some research to remove implants and correct a previous breast lift. This would be my third surgeon on my breasts and he was very honest about setting expectations due to the degree of corrective surgery required. I am absolutely in AWE of the end result. His surgical expertise, patience and perfectionism resulted in better then expected results. He surrounds himself with the most professional staff who guided me through what to expect and followed up post surgery. I highly recommend him! read more

Dr. McFate and his team went beyond all of my expectations in every step of the process. I had a mommy makeover, and had some medical complications that other surgeons didn't even want to take the time to deal with and Doc took time to refer me and then consult with my other doctors to make sure I was safe and healthy for surgery! Surgery felt like a day at the spa- and post op was a piece of cake without drains and all of the pre care and post care they give you that is part of their total package! Simply amazing and the best medical experience I have ever had in my life. The results are fabulous and also better than I ever expected. I seriously cannot say enough about this caring, professional team that go out of their way to make sure you get their personal attention and don't feel like a number. Love them!!! read more

Dr. McFate is a one of a kind plastic surgeon. He's one of the few plastic surgeons in Austin that personally administers botox.

His work is the best and I highly recommend him! read more

Dr. McFate is the best! Not only is his work outstanding, he has excellent bedside manner and will spend as much time as you need to answer all questions and put you at ease. His staff is also wonderful-- the receptionist, medical assistants, office manager and surgical team. I had a great experience with the whole process of my breast augmentation.

I am so happy with my results! read more

I had filler done with Dr. McFate and was very happy with my results.

Dr Mcfate is very friendly, he makes me feel very comfortable and they have a great customer service which I like very much.

Dr. McFate is a perfectionist and an exceptional plastic surgeon with a brilliant team at his side. They truly make you feel like you are the only patient. The team are so personable, attentive, patient and professional. All of them. Dr. McFate performed a tummy tuck coinciding with my diastasis recti repair. After much thought and consideration I also decided to have a breast augmentation done. This was a big decision for me and I had many questions and concerns. Dr. McFate always personally returned my calls and took the time to patiently answer each and every question I had. Dr. McFate is a truly amazing surgeon. He is very knowledgeable, kind, patient, approachable and takes great pride in his work. He really makes you feel as though your procedure is as personal and important to him as it is to you. And he is honest about what to expect. I have always felt safe and in excellent hands with Dr. McFate and can not recommend him highly enough. I am so happy with the results! read more

My daughter was attacked by a 70 pound dog on the Greenbelt recently. Thank goodness Dr. McFate was the plastic surgeon on call at St. David's. She ended up with 50 + stitches in her forehead and on her nose. Dr. McFate is a perfectionist and so, so skilled. I would trust him with any plastic surgery procedure. My daughter's scars are healing beautifully. It's because he did an amazing job. He does a meticulous job. Very approachable, very kind and very professional. His office is beautiful and the staff is very kind also. read more

I have had Cosmetic surgery and also Face Fillers in this office. I highly recommend Dr. McFate and his staff!

Great bedside manner, quality Botox/Juvederm products. Also got an amazing facial here.

First, let me say that Dr. McFate and his staff were all very nice and the location was great for me. I went in to get filler done by Dr. McFate under my eyes earlier this year and had bad results. When I informed him of the bags and bump, he acted like he couldn't see what the issue was. Under one eye, there is a small bag. Under the other, there is a bag and a big lump of filler over my cheek. When I spoke to the doctor, he made it seem like he knew what he was doing with this area. Obviously he doesn't because my results were terrible. I waited 4 weeks for swelling to go down and make sure that the lumps were actually filler and I made another appointment to get dissolver. My main issue is that Dr. McFate acted like he didn't see what the issues were. My eyes looked terrible and the giant lump of filler over my cheek was extremely noticeable. He put in some dissolver but I still have the bags. My under eyes are stills messed up and I have bags now which I didn't before. I had some hollowness and now I just ended up with bags! I had a consult with another doctor who said my bags looked bad, but it will be best to wait a while and then have an experienced injector fix the mistakes. I wouldn't waste your money and appearance here if you are coming in for filler. Just stick with someone who is experienced because it is a nightmare to fix these mistakes. read more
