The doctor was very detailed he explained procedures with detail. Was respectful during the consult. Answered any of my questions.

The doctor also had suggestions that previous doctors didn't, and even suggested not getting procedures that other doctors were adamant about. I really liked the fact that Dr. Hill was a "doctor" first. He also suggested other health and safety measures that previous doctors would not perform or didn't even know about.

The experience from start to finish. The after care and concern of the staff and doctor I couldn't ask for more .
Everyone was very nice and made you feel Welcome. Dr. Hill was professional, did not make you feel rushed and answered all my questions.
Dr. Hill was one of the few doctors that I have met with that listened to what I want, not what they thought I should want. This is a fix correctly neck lift that I had the wrong surgeon originally preform. I would like to come back one more time and review exactly how we can move forward.
