Our Patients Say It Best

Dr. Ford, as well as everyone involved with my journey, were highly professional and genuinely took the steps to make me feel comfortable and confident with the entire process. I was highly impressed how everyone went above and beyond to make sure my individual situation went as smoothly as possible.

Dr Ford is just amazing and caring. When you make this decision you are full of fear and wonder, she settles every aspect of your thoughts with the most caring approach. She has a true love for her patients desires and goals.

Dr. Ford and Vinny were both very thorough in explaining all aspects of the procedure and what's to be expected and as well as the payment plans they offer.

I am highly impressed and satisfied with Dr. Ford and her team. Dr. Ford is kind, compassionate, very detailed and has always been there when I've needed her. I'm only into week 3 post opp-approaching week 4 in 2 days. But I have been through a lot in the 3 weeks, and had to see her on emergency visits and she was there every time without hesitation. As far as my procedure went, like I said , I just got my surgical tape off, and am still healing, so I don't really know what to say about the looks. But at the stage I'm in, I'm very satisfied thus far. The nurse, Jacquline is very sweet and patient. She's always gentle and welcoming . Maggie , at the front desk…. Well what can we say about her, other than she's the best! Always smiling and ready to approach you with warmth! Vinnie, the financial advisor/manager, is also the best at working with the cost and payments! I can't say enough how blessed I am to have landed here for my Breast Surgery.

[Single best thing is...] I feel like me again. I have not felt more comfortable in my own skin in 13 years . I absolutely love my body now and it feels amazing. I haven’t been so happy in such a long time. Dr. Ford not only fixed my most insecure area of my body but made me feel like me again.

Dr. Ford was very thorough in her assessment. She took her time to answer all questions I had, and she made me feel comfortable instantaneously.

Doctor Ford is an exceptional surgeon to say the least! Her bedside manner is unmatched and I felt comfortable from my consultation appointment, to the operating room!

The entire experience from beginning to end was amazing! Dr Ford has the best bedside manners you could ask for. She is kind and listens to your concerns. Her entire staff was just as amazing as she is!

I had had a bad experience 10 years prior for liposuction and was very hesitant to have it done again. Dr. Ford and the Renuance Staff made me feel 100% at ease from start to finish. Dr. Ford is extremely kind, genuine and really took her time discussing my options. She was upfront and honest with me regarding what to expect with my results after surgery. She also is an excellent surgeon and I couldn't be happier with my results!!!! From the coordinator to the surgical staff to the doctor I had a comfortable experience. I highly recommend her and Renuance. Beautiful, clean and welcoming environment. I was so happy from my first experience with Dr Ford that I had a second surgery on another area!

I had a consultation with Dr. Ford and I immediately felt at ease, she answered all of my questions and was very thorough about the procedures that I am having done, very excited to work with her on my upcoming surgery.
