Surgery isn't a small thing and so we all take our research on doctors very seriously. I'm grateful to have come to Dr. Chow for my breast augmentation surgery - the full-process (from consultation to post-visits) have been comfortable and overall nothing short of the best. And I'm so happy with my decision and Dr. Chow's work - my friends have already asked me to refer them.
“I have already recommended Dr. Chow to my friends”

Everyone that works in the office tends to the needs of the patient, and is great about answering your questions and listening to what you want. Even after post op they helped me with follow up apps and made it very easy on my family and I. I plan on coming back in the future because they run a great office.
“So awesome! Dr. Chow and Staff are so kind and helpful!”

I love it. I love my results, I love my life post-op, I love myself, and everyone's noticing. My nurse said something so wise to me today during my follow up appointment: that without the barrier of self consciousness trapping me, I can now come out as my true self. I don't believe it is a coincidence that my friends have told me I have become this extrovert I've never been before after my nose/eyelid procedures. Thank you, Dr. Chow, for your life-changing work!!
“Amazing. Life-changing. Zero Regrets. Worth every penny.”

I trusted Dr. Chow with removing a few moles from my face and am so happy I did! I have had a few moles removed in the past and have always been unhappy with the scars that have been left behind. Obviously, I was hesitant to remove the few from my face for this very reason. Dr. Chow was very attentive and in only 4 months post-removal, my scar is almost unnoticeable! I am very happy with my results! Not to mention, the staff (Jenn and Patsy) are such wonderful people. I highly recommend Dr. Chow!

Dr Chow nailed it. He suggested a less invasive method other physicians said wouldnt work that sounded very appealing. Communication and planning in advance were perfect by the team. The procedure went exactly as expected and came out truly perfect. This is the best possible scenario I was hoping for. I absolutely recommend Dr Chow and his team.

I want to thank Doctor Chow for fixing my botched facelift, which was performed by a nationally well-known “medical spa”. More than a year ago, that “medical spa” performed a facelift on me, and then a revision to “fix” the problems created by their first surgery. Despite this, I continued to have a number of problems. I had continuous pain in one of my ears and really bad looking scars. Stitches were coming out of my neck, and my neck was pulling and hanging on one side. The discomfort affected

Re: clear explanations...I was not told an important direction before surgery and so we had to delay the surgery. Or, if I was told I didn't hear, which may have been the case, but I doubt it. Always best to double-check instructions.
