My Breast Implants Look Natural and Feel Great - I LOVE THEM

Breast Implants

He's a thoughtful surgeon who takes his time in making recommendations, learning about his patients' goals, and thoroughly explaining the pros and cons of the procedures he performs. He has excellent staff that are warm and friendly and on one in the practice makes you feel that you are bothering them with your questions or concerns.

so very thrilled with result!! thank you!!! - La Jolla, CA

Now onto Dr. Chaffoo......he is so warm and sincere and listened to all my questions. He knew my goals well. I had full confidence going in that he was going to be diligent and thorough during my 3 hour surgery. I can't say enough nice things about him. My results are spectacular and the pain was minimal. I switched to Tylenol about a week post op. The surgery center was incredible as well. So efficient and professional. Everyone there was kind. THANK YOU to all the staff and Dr. Chaffoo for my great outcome and care. I recommend Dr. Chaffoo not only for his surgical abilities (which are top notch) but for his warmth in character and kindness.

There isn't anything I would change about my experience with Dr. C. He is a warm and personable man who answered my questions, and then some in follow-up calls and emails I sent to his office before booking my procedure. I am a very organized person and so I appreciated how responsive the office was to my call and how efficiently they handled my account.
