Dr. Desplinter performed plastic surgery on my face for skin cancer. During my follow-up visit he commented that he did not get all of the cancer and wanted to perform surgery again. No thanks, after he didn't perform it correctly the first time. For being a plastic surgeon he left a big scar on my face.

I have recommended this doctor to several people and they have all been satisfied. I am in the military. He aims to make sure his work is done right. There was an area that I had questions about and he was willing to work on the site with little additional cost to ensure satisfaction. He is very kind and has great bed side manner.
