“I would highly recommend Dr. Lapuerta. I met several plastic surgeons for consultations before making the decision to entrust my surgery to Dr. Lapuerta. I chose him over the others for his openness, his honesty and his frankness about what he thought I could benefit from and what he thought I didn’t need. You do not find many surgeons that will actually discourage you with regards to ‘elective surgeries.’ Dr. Lapuerta did not hesitate to tell me he didn’t think I needed one of the procedures I had thought about having. He and his staff were very supportive and caring throughout the entire process. They answered all my questions and made me feel very much at ease throughout the entire process. I am very happy with the results of my tummy tuck and even though my husband wasn’t totally on board with the idea – he’s admitted that having it done has made a world of difference in my self-esteem and energy level. If I ever decide to have anything else done – Dr. Lapuerta will be the only surgeon I seek out for services.”
