Wanted me to go a 3rd !! time to remove the same cancer on my nose. Went to San Antonio and was quite happy with the surgeon and plastic surgeon. They have very good doctors in San Antonio, TX.

My husband had a neck lift and i nor he saw much difference. Neck is still saggy. Now he's hesitant to get it done somewhere else. Do your research on neck/face lift procedures.

Had procedure done a couple of times. Didn't get good results. Did not get any of my $ reimbursed. Went to another surgeon to correct procedure and paid again.

I looked absolutely amazing after having surgery with Dr. Avila. I did several peocedures at once which included breast lift/ tummy tuck/body sculpting and aBrazilian butt lift...... It was a lot of procedures at once but well worth it. Feeling Fabulous! and wondering why I waited so long.

I would highly recommend Dr Avila. He is very compassionate, caring and does excellent work. His staff is very professional and makes you feel comfortable. On the day of appts, there are no long waiting times. He is very prompt and spends as much time as you need answering questions and putting the patient at ease. His staff is always available to answer questions and they are very supportive. He should get a 5 star rating.
