Aesthetic surgery can do as much for self-image as well as for appearance. Refinements from cosmetic surgery often produce positive changes in self awareness and attitude that can be perceived and appreciated by you and those around you. My goal is to produce subtle but exciting changes. An â€œoverdoneâ€ look or a â€œsurgicalâ€ appearance is never something I try to create with my patients. The decision to change your appearance requires realistic expectations in addition to a thorough knowledge of the surgical process. It is my desire to help you achieve both. Together, we will discuss all aspects of your procedure.

He seemed disinterested in my problem and would not explain his opinions.

As an 18-year-old girl I was nervous to get this procedure done but Dr.Doherty was great at explaining every step and ensuring that I felt comfortable with what was going on. Dr. Doherty is an amazing doctor in many ways, but his most admirable trait is that he makes sure that his patients are happy. I am so happy that I got this breast reduction because it has made my back pain go away and has made my life easier in many other ways. If you have similar pain and are doubtful about doing this procedure because of age or anything else, I recommend that you consult Dr. Doherty or any other plastic surgeon because this definitely helped me.

Dr. Doherty is a very kind, gentle, and professional practitioner. I very much trust his aesthetic sense. I ask for what I want, and he tells me what will and will not work. He offers suggestions for what will work best, and he works with me, taking into account I do not have unlimited amounts of money to spend on procedures. I definitely recommend him to those seeking treatment to maintain a fresh appearance.
