Our Patients Say It Best

Dr. Hill is a very thoughtful doctor not only in his bedside manner, but also in his skill. My scar was on my face and Dr. Hill took great care to ensure the revision would fall in line with my smile and look natural.
Dr. Hill was very patient and Knowledgeable answered any questions I had and he didn't disappoint me with me results
Dr. Hill and staff were reassuring that I'd be in good hands, they addressed all my concerns and questions. Dr. Hill was compassionate and had a wonderful bedside manner. They allowed me as much time as I needed during my consultation and afterward I had more questions and he addressed them also at our pre-op appointment. I booked the same day because I was comfortable in knowing I had found a perfect match.
The front office staff are great! Jacob is very knowledgeable with the type of surgery and performs professionally. Dr. M. Hill is awesome! What a wonderful, professional, kind, attentive and caring person. He explains thoroughly everything you need to know and if you have questions which me and my spouse had, he will give you an honest opinion and answer. I will definitely go back for any other future surgeries. Highly recommended place. Blessings to all of them.
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.
The team was really great. Dr. Hill went above and beyond and took care of me not only during the surgery but after. He made sure of any issues. He was right there with me
From the moment I walked into the office the receptionist was very nice and helpful. She offered me water and directions to the restroom. Once I saw Dr.Hill he saw my scars and showed great knowledge of the possibilities to treat it as well as share ideas between him and the med spa Dr. I was given a clear and concise plan and full transparency of the process of treating my scars. I’m only one of multiple treatments in with Dr. Hill but I feel very comfortable and confident that he and the med spa Dr. can get me to my desired outcome with my scars. I’m trusting the process! The Renuance staff is wonderful!
After 3 babies I had to much saggy skin on my belly. The amount of skin Dr Hill removed from my belly and pulled my waist in looks so natural. Even my belly button looks great, very natural looking. The placement of my TT scar is low enough to where I can wear 2 piece bathing suits again. Dr Hill's great Bed side manner and the fact his Patients health was number 1 was an over all added bonus. He even made my husband feel comfortable and answered all of our questions. I would do it all over again with him as my surgeon.
Dr Hill was very direct with me as far as what he could do and he has a very good bedside manner. Hoping great success with my surgery
Dr. Hill explained my options and the expected outcome of each option. He never rushed an appointment and I felt comfortable asking questions and stating concerns. Everyone I had contact with was very professional, gave good information, and was friendy. I never felt like I was bothering them with my questions.
