I had a tummy tuck and breast lift procedure and am thrilled not only with my results but Dr. D'Amico and his wonderful staff. I am going to have a cellulaze treatment next as I have ALWAYS hated my cottage cheese thighs and then I will finally have my pre-baby body back. Thank you Dr. D!

After having my children I struggled with the added "fat" that remained in my abdomen/hips/thighs and stomach even though I maintained a good body weight. Dr. D'Amico suggested liposuction to provide me better contour but to also have a tummy tuck as my muscles were so stretched out with my pregnancies. I remember my gynecologist told me the same thing. I told Dr. D'Amico that I was so scared of the tummy tuck because I heard it is very painful. After listening to my fears, he told me about a pain pump that he would use for my tummy tuck. It was a miracle, I had only minor discomfort from my tummy tuck and was sore where I had my liposuction. After wearing my garment for several weeks, I went out shopping and OMG, I LOVE buying clothes now. I used to dread trying stuff on. My nurses were incredible both before and after my surgery. I LOVE Donna. She is the BEST :) I am so happy to have had this surgery and that Dr. D'Amico was my surgeon. I had to wait in his waiting room for awhile but he is well worth the wait.

My first phone call to his office was the reason I ultimately chose Dr D`Amico to perform my breast reconstructionfrom a double mastectomy. If the staff were warm and welcoming, i knew the doctor would be too.Every step of the way I felt comfortable and safe. He was patient,friendly and informative..I had my breast reconstruction last month & I bet the best compliment Dr D`Amico has ever received came from my 9 year old son who told him,\"thank you for giving my mom her soft boobs back, now I can get soft hugs again\"Would Highly Recommend Dr D`Amico----

I had my augmentation and lift done by Dr. D'Amico. I had a wonderful experience and I'm super happy with the results. Both him and his staff answered all my questions and made me feel comfortable. I'm a mom of 5 young kids and look and feel great. Dr. D'Amico did a GREAT job!!

I read the review here and cannot believe it`s the same person that peformed my surgery two years ago. LISTENING The man can only listen to one person - himself. His ego is off the charts. He will not listen to you - he only cares to hear himself. He so grossly oversold me on procedures, and honestly, I was very intimidated by him and stupidly agreed to it. Boy what a mistake. Aside from ripping up 10,000 I did not get the result I wanted. When I told him that he said that he could re-do the surgery. I said are you kidding - you are not touching me again. BAD EXPERIENCE.

I went to see Dr. D`Amico for liposuction in my stomach. I am in very good shape, good weight but had a pouch in my abdomen that I hated. I did not want surgery but since I didn`t know what my options were, I consulted a few plastic surgeons and they all recommended liposuction. A friend of mine who had surgery by Dr. D`Amico told me about Dr. D`Amico and told me he did a few types of iposuction so I went to see him for a consultation. Dr. D`Amico thought that coolsculpting would provide me with the result I was looking for without having surgery and anesthesia. I decided to give it a try and here I am 2 months after the procedure and I am really beginning to see the difference. I am not only happy with the results but he saved me a ton of money. The other doctors recommended liposution that would have cost thousands and this was only 1500.00!! Dr. D`Amico could have suggested liposuction to me but he was more interested in providing me with a non-surgical option which is what I wanted that would get me the result I was looking for rather than digging deep in to my pockets.

My experience under Dr. D'Amico's care was overall very positive. He listened to what I wanted to gain out of my procedure, and that is what I got. Therefore, my results look natural and I couldn't be more pleased. A friend of mine recommended that I see Dr. D'Amico after she had her procedure; I would certainly do the same.

I recently had reconstruction by Dr. D`Amico. I had been to 4 doctors before seeing Dr. D`Amico and he is the only one who finally got it right!!! On the day of my surgery, he and the anesthesiologist spent so much time with me trying to make me physically comfortable as I have a lot of physical and medical issues. Needless to say I was full of anxiety but both Dr. D`Amico and the anesthesiologist were so caring. The anesthesiologist who was there just in case actually held my hand through the whole procedure. Dr. D`Amico had to remove a large piece of my ear but he reconstructed it in such a way that no one even knows!! I only wish I were healthy enough to have a FACELIFT!

After reading reviews of many doctors one that caught my eye was the review of a husband`s opinon regarding his wife breast reduction. I decided to add Dr. D`Amico to my list.All I can say is Donsc had it right. I made an appt. I felt I was in the best hands with Dr. D.My results I am very happy with. I felt very safe which was one of my biggest fears.The staff was very professional, the nurse staff was excellent. Overall great results. Great decision.

I thought I needed a tummy tuck until Dr. D'Amico explained a new liposuction he is doing that also does skin tightening. I didn't have a lot of skin but I hated the way it looked. I had the new liposuction called Bodytite that is still in FDA trials and I am so happy with the way I look. Dr. D'Amico is a miracle worker.

I went to Dr. D`Amico thinking that I needed a tummy tuck but after seeing him he suggested a new technology that he is using in clinical trials and he though I would not need a tummy tuck. I had my surgery 6 months ago and he was right. I am so happy that I avoided a tummy tuck and love that I look so good in my clothes.

I had eyelid surgery (eyelift) and the results are conspicuously uneven. During the follow-up meeting, his comment was "no one is assymetrical!" I paid a fortune to become disfigured and now am seeing another surgeon and have to go thru the procedure again to correct his botched job.

Excellent result from my liposuction. I was unfortunately born with HUGE thighs. Over the years they only got worse. So bad that I had to buy slacks one size larger and then have them altered by a taylor. I chose Dr. D`Amico because of his reputation. I had to wait 30 minutes to see him, but, he was worth it. He spent a lot of time with my on my consultation. He and his staff are absolutely wonderful and I am so glad I had my surgery by him. Now I look so much better in my clothes and no longer have to spend money on alterations!!

Do not use him for Lipo - he uses an old method and created an embarassing lumpy mess of my midsection. A friend of mine had the same exact results - a lumpy mess! DO NOT USE HIM FOR LIPO!

Fabulous doctor! My wife was very nervous about having her breast reduction surgery but Dr. D'Amico and his staff did a lot of hand holding to make her feel at ease. Her results are certainly much better than I would have imagined and now she is all about shopping for a strapless dress for our son's wedding. You might have to wait a little bit to see the doctor, but he is well worth the wait. I can't even imagine going to another doctor for any surgery. My wife has been going to Audrey for facials (again, getting ready for the wedding) and her skin is beautiful..thanks Audrey! My wife feels so good about herself.

I've been going to Dr. D'Amico for 6 years now and never had a problem with him. I starting going to him since my first doctor screwed up my reconstruction. He took the time to explain everything to me and I am and will alway be satisfied with him.

Great bedside manner until there is a problem.Changes the subject and will not acknowledge his mistakes.Offered unrelated procedures to divert attention. Beware, reconstruction is not his forte.
